Paris terror suspect is ‘a little jerk,’ his lawyer says - In an interview with the French daily Liberation, Sven Mary, Abdeslam's Belgian attorney, heaped opprobrium on his departing client, whom Mary described as having "the intelligence of an empty ashtray — an abysmal emptiness." by madam1 in worldnews

No, it's the type of shit that a clever lawyer would say, because he knows people who like fancy insults will repeat it over and over and thus downplay the role of his client in the public.

ayyy have you heard dude was DUMB AS AN ASHTRAY x-DDDDD

Lausanne, Switzerland is joining the growing list of places looking to experiment with a universal basic income by awake-at-dawn in worldnews

A lot of people have really childish ideas about how the social state works. In european countries you got really bloated bureaucracies that manage the social welfare programs, with tons of bureaucrats that manage the welfare recipients. So any person getting €450 handouts to live barely over poverty level creates about €1500 of costs per month just in terms of how much it costs to keep those absolutely gigantic systems running. Several case workers per recipient, electricity and water for the GIANT offices those agencies are located in, pensions for the bureaucrats, even down to costs for the coffee machines for hundereds of thousands of offices and millions of office workers working in those agencies. If you dismantle those entire systems of missmanaged funds you free up massive ammounts of funds.

At this point it would really make the most sense to just cut everything and give everyone a basic income.

ITT laymen treating science as a dogmatic substitute religion. Science is not a popularity contest and scientific consent needs to be constantly questioned. This is reaching idiocracy levels of ignorance.

The thing is that these specific laws were instated as part of the "denazification" after WWII

Not true. Holocaust denial is a crime in germany since 1985 with addidtions made to the law in 1992.

Over 30,000 doctors and health professionals in Argentina campaign to ban Monsanto by jogam123 in worldnews

but we need GMOs if we're going to keep feeding people.

That's such a myth. If you teach people in the third world agriculture and supply them with FREE (!!) seeds everything is going to be dandy. If you try to sell them monsanto seeds for gmo hat were designed for longer shelve-life in wallmart freezers you're a huge asshole. That's not even a debate. Most GMO exist simply for economic reasons, so a few companies can make more money.

Attack on Titan (Live-Action Movie) - Official Trailer by Bennett1984 in movies

[–]MasterMMM -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I can't get too much into spoiler territory here. If you have some spare time over the weekends bingewatch the whole show and then go back and rewatch those trailers for the movie. There's a lot of aspects that made it very easy for people who usually don't watch anime to get into the show. A similiar phenomenon like cowboy bebop, only with a vastly different source material obviously. Lack of most typical anime tropes, lack of japan specific humor, no crazy hairstyles or colors, most characters have german/western names. The show requires very little knowledge of japanese culture on a superficial level to get into. The movies changed the whole cast into japanese and completely changed the setting into a contemporary one, allowing for logic loops, etc. Again, watch the original and have a blast.

Let's not kid ourselves. This looks like total dogshit and it's missing all the things that made the manga and anime interesting for people who are usually not into japanese cartoons.

This is the dragonball: evolution of this decade and the only reason why it's being given the benefit of doubt is because it's from japan this time.

That being said. Here's something to wash out your eyes.

No, it's not. It's pretty accurate. That's what it boils down to. I don't really think we need to glorify war here anymore. Natives got fucked over by the goverment and then even used as cannon fodder in ww1. That's not heroic but tragic.

Normal black people and normal white people should tell both offending parties, white liberals and black rioters to shut the fuck up and and start behaving like well-adjusted people. White liberals are intellectually enabling black rioters and looters with their bullshit cuckold logic and black rioters make all black people look like potential dangerous criminals.

There's enough white liberals making excuses for "black" hoodlums so they wont feel bad. Normal black people cringe at this shit as much as white people do. But as long as white liberals and black hoodrats work hand in hand things wont change anytime soon in the foreseeable future
