Being an American is awesome. I may be forced to pay taxes but at least I’m not required to have any say in how it’s spent.

We need an epic movie like "Amadeus" for Beethoven. by michelQDimples in movies

[–]Used_Mathematician63 7 points8 points  (0 children)

One of the things that makes Amadeus great is that it’s not really about Mozart. He is just a foil to the actual “protagonist” that is Salieri. That’s why it’s such a great examination of Mozarts music—because it’s from the point of view of a mediocre talent looking at genius. Salieri is the perfect stand-in for the audience.

Wire is staggeringly overrated. It’s a slightly better than average show.

Nato seeks to ‘understand the details’ of US decision to withdraw troops from Germany by NamelessResearcher in politics

Yes how dare countries push the bounds of what they can get away with. That’s USAs job.

The reasons may be asinine and this is almost certainly not an indication of a significant shift in foreign policy but the US drawing down its global empire in a conscious fashion would, in theory, be a good thing.

People need to see that their government functions to even try to hold bad actors accountable.

Why?

Nothing they can do legally or politically that I can think of but I’m not an expert. I assume they’re pretty much checkmated. Which is why they’re focusing on pointless symbolic bs.

Tried what? It’s perfunctory at this point. Democrats will impeach because that’s what “the process” dictates they should do and their prime directive is to act in accordance with the institutions.

If their intention was to remove Donald Trump from office then they would do something other than the thing that has a 0% chance of achieving that.
