As a European watching the news, sometimes I have to remind myself that lots of other countries also go to shit from time to time, it just doesn't get reported on as much. We get a massively disproportionate amount of reporting from the US as a result of how the English-speaking internet works.

In fact even writing this I just noticed the sidebar's description of the community I'm posting in, guess I should probably just block it (no offence).

Sounds like they are on the tail end of the find out phase.

What, including the 10,000+ children killed so far by Israel? Yeah I'm sure they were asking for it. Definitely a proportional response. GTFO

I want to ask him if that's how he talks at home.

There should be a word for when someone thinks they're countering a point, when in fact they're just acting as a demonstration of it.

Rich people are far less likely to do time, because "the companies I own are responsible for other people's livelihoods, you'd be punishing them as well" is generally accepted by most courts of law as a valid reason not to jail them. If they were less short-sighted they'd be treating the fact that the person had power and responsibilities as an aggravating circumstance and giving them longer sentences...

They've been going downhill ever since they discontinued the McChicken Korma Naan in 1999.

You posted almost verbatim what I was about to write. It's a proper "don't shit on my pie and tell me it's a blueberry" moment. That's not what friends are.

That's an interesting thought, but I don't think it stands up to the slightest bit of scrutiny.
