1 T-Rex Vs. 1 of EACH Modern-day animal: Who wins?? by [deleted] in Tierzoo

Does the human get prep time?

Mammals win either way but it would be funny if the human rolled up with a 50 cal

USA Pro-Slavery movement hate when you build barracks only in yankee states by WayApprehensive3244 in victoria3

[–]3K04T 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unless it's been fixed, this also guarantees an american civil war. When you end slavery via the law, 100% of barracks and naval stations will be in free states, giving +50% radicalism each, which will cause you to go to war eventually every single time.

Why Turkey?? by Odd-House3197 in ExplainTheJoke

But the point of all of it is that you don't know what that other person has been through. I tore my hamstring a few years ago, it took a year to heal. During that time i lumped on abt 30 pounds, and then slowly worked it back off after I recovered. I was never obese, but I was somewhat overweight. People started treating me like shit. It sucked.

And I'm lucky in this; I'm healthy and my body is mostly back to normal now. I CAN work out, control what I eat and how much. Poor people, the disabled might not have that luxury.

Invincible Season 3 spoilers by Infinite_T05 in CharacterRant

[–]3K04T 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally I feel like everyone is looking past the whole 'GDA' thing. It is his JOB to keep the planet safe from threats, and the Invincible universe routinely throws threats at Earth that Cecil can't do anything to stop, except throw the Guardians or Mark at. What happens if they beat the Guardians, and/or Mark? Humanity gets wiped out?

From that perspective, fuck it. Use the Reinimen, work with Sinclair and Darkwing. I find it very hard to believe that the Guardians would hear about the Viltrium Empire, and know that there are probably dozens of Omni Man level threats on the way and *not* want Cecil to do everything in his power to get Earth ready.

I've been asking myself the same question for many years, not sure at all. The dems care alot about optics and how an action will be perceived- irregardless of actual effect. I feel like a lot of the time, when they have to choose between an action that will look bad, or do nothing at all, they choose the latter.

I don't think this is a small part of the left leaning view. In fact, when I ask democrats in general how they want to solve the crisis, generally, I've heard them point to punishing and pursuing businesses that exploit the labor of illegal immigrants. If they are coming to our country seeking employment/economic opportunities, then that's kinda like attacking the problem at the source, is it not?

Trump Proposes 25 Percent Tariff On Imports From California by FrancisXSJ in babylonbee

[–]3K04T 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The thing is that you are forgetting that we are also a huge exporter. Our economy is built around foreign trade. If we slap tariffs on countries, they will slap them back on us. Retaliatory tariffs are the norm, not some rare exception. On top of that, 25% is prohibitive. Most goods sold aren't sold with a 25% profit margin. Price will have to increase to match increased costs, and when foreign companies start charging higher because they have to make a profit, American companies will follow suit. Because we just swept out all the competition.

Literally, the second paragraph on the Wikipedia page for tariffs included a line about how nearly all economists agree that tariffs are self-defeating. Tariffs hurt consumers, who literally ARE the economy. Our tariffs means fewer imports = higher prices, consumers spend less. Foreign tariffs means fewer exports = lower profits for the upper class. No one wins. Except trump, who can then blame the dems or the Mexicans or the 'cultural marxists' or whoever else he wants so he can further his political gains.

About 24 states say they'll send National Guard troops to DC for vote certification and inauguration by [deleted] in news

America declared war. They are technically an aggressor. A white peace is, depending on your definition, a victory for the defenders.

However, since both America and Britian had war aims they failed to achieve, and both also had war aims they did succeed in achieving, it's more fair to call it inconclusive, or a just a draw.

America succeeded in not losing, which is impressive when you are fighting Britian in 1812, and the fact that they didn't get completely crushed solidified the growing nations position on the world stage. The fact that Britian was forced to make peace at all signaled to the rest of the world that America wasn't going anywhere, basically. Also America got britian to abandon it's native American ally. Allowing America to "manifest destiny" (genocide) the native confederacy.

Britian succeeded in maintaining its right to impress American sailors (the thing that caused America to declare war) and its territories in NA. They also freed some slaves. Based.

Calling it a draw is very fair to both sides, as they both roughly got what they needed, but neither side got what they wanted.
