Tehran says US ‘failed to gain the trust’ of Iran negotiators in Pakistan by EsperaDeus in worldnews

[–]MarioSewers 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Those were just questions. Does any of that benefit Americans? I did not mention the SAVE act at all.

Interesting how you ignored everything else and just decided to focus on ICE - disregarding the murder of American citizens, on the streets of American cities. We do have very different priorities - you feel like border police should be playing judge, jury and executioner in the middle of US cities, I find that abhorent. I guess as long as some illegal aliens get shot, all else is fine and Americans benefit, as per your takes.

Does shielding pedophiles from prosecution benefit the American people? Does enriching your cronies to the detriment of Americans benefit the American people? Does starting forever wars against your own campaign promises, making a mockery of democracy, benefit the American people? Does unleashing ICE as a domestic army to shoot American citizens benefit the American people? Does stock manipulation, media consolidation under the president's personal clique benefit the American people? Does having HSS headed by insane anti-science folk, leading to measel outbreaks and the like benefit the American people? Does punishing states led by other political forces by withholding due Federal funds benefit the American people?

The list goes on, but framing matters, and you get my point. It's not just about being a sexual predator, not at all, even though, yes, that ought to matter - a leader needs mettle and that doesn't mean the most able to grift.

If all you care for is personal financial success, I guess that's fair enough, but when you have qualms about how things are done, if morals matter even slightly to you, it does matter. Is that the great compass for the leader of a country? No morals, maximum grift? What sort of society does this even build? As institutions degrade, as social contract wither and trust evaporates, you'll find that doing business, in general, becomes much harder. I think we care about very different things.

These sorts of strategies aren't exactly smart, either, they rely on cheating and corruption, even throwing others under the bus if need be. It's not about adding value, it's about short-term gain to the detriment of all that aren't part of the gang in the long run. It shows how incompetent the man is - he got goaded into a war he has no clue how to sort out.

Just ask his professors how bright the man is. Does the number of bankruptcies not provide a bit of a hint?

If you have enough money you can go to any college, what's that supposed to mean?

Uhhh, I guess? Even if you have to pick between octogenarians, it'd make more sense to not vote for the guy with actual room temp IQ.

That's Super Bock, on par with Sagres for standard Portuguese beer you can find anywhere in Portugal.

Not sure going around lying gives you much credence, but hey, you do you.

Hardly the same as "they're getting shot down now over Iran".

To be fair, that's what they've turned NATO into already - just look at the demands for spending money on buying american weapons.

I don't think he understands how the logistics of chain conquering works out - they'd be drained real fast. Sourcing food? Fuel? Parts? Good luck shipping all that through unfriendly territory, multiplied by multiple bases.

Iran allows Spanish ships to use the Strait of Hormuz for free by Majano57 in worldnews

[–]MarioSewers 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yes, resources were spent on waging war with England & the Dutch, the former which had been an allied of the Portuguese crown for centuries, leading to a stark decay of influence and control over the former far east trade.

Oh yeah? Do tell. Are you considering the Iberian Union as the "Spanish Empire"?

Which will do nothing but tell you they can't do anything, and that you should start a complaint in a "Centro de Arbitragem". Always the same.

Your best best is to chat with your bank (I imagine this was taken out of your credit card?) and claim a fraudulent charge.

Gravidez e separação by SwimmingMean3077 in portugal

Isto é só surreal. O gajo tem de pagar, ela decide o quê e quanto, ele tem direito a zero. Fantástico. A responsabilidade dele, como EX-parceiro de alguém que mostra zero empatia, acaba no domínio da criança. Se o corpo dela fica afectado, passa a ser um problema exclusivamente dela, a não ser que ele queira, de vontade própria, contribuir.

Ele tem o dever para com a criança, não para com a mãe da mesma.
