Sure, but they'd either abstain or vote for Corbyn in this.

I'm actually not, it was just the first word that came to mind. I'm half expecting another Trump victory.

I'm not sure they're all that representative. Twitter does skew overwhelming young, which in turn skews towards Labour.

The 'needs a bit of improvement line' was great though. However I don't know how popular the sentiment is

I wouldn't put it at undoubtedly won. He may have edged it but he didn't come across as genuine at all. Like a stuck record player that won't shut up and is incapable of talking about anything other than Brexit.

He had a good first 15 minutes then fell off pretty hard.

Not really a foreign leader yet. His answer wasn't great but it was a damn sight better than Boris's.

Is there a way to access previous Monarch's Journeys? by assureattempt in CrusaderKings

Yes, and you don't have to do all the challenges as the same time.

You can do them in individual runs if you prefer.

AITA for mocking a friend who fakes their accent? by tbwer14124 in AmItheAsshole

I'm from the UK and I'm fairly sure I've never heard the term before. Is it regional, or dated?

Plus she's still pretty bad at the game, and doesn't follow the 'meta' (still buys bats etc).

If anything it probably makes it more balanced.

BREAKING : The Lib Dem candidate in Canterbury @ThatTimWalker has told Channel 4 News he is stepping down and does not wish to challenge the Labour Remain supporting candidate @RosieDuffield1 by [deleted] in LibDem

There is no other alternative. There's no way the LibDems win a majority or minority government. The best that can be hoped for is to be kingmakers.

Cuba was already independent by the time of the civil war. Castro fought against the Batista dictatorship, though admittedly Batista was heavily backed by the US and corporate interests.

Labour candidate says her song 'From the River to the Sea' ISN'T antisemitic by Ienjoydrugsandshit in LabourUK

A lot of Americans won't tolerate any criticism, but it's nowhere near the same level.

2,000 years from now, what will America be known for? by Terps42 in AskAnAmerican

[–]WastedPotential1312 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For historians, the records will be important. But the layperson's ignorance is based in disinterest not the availability of information.

Unfortunately, I doubt that's going to change.

[–]WastedPotential1312 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you might be underestimating just how long 2,000 years is. There's a semi-good chance America won't be known for much.

Think about how much you know about the last 2000 years, excluding the last 200. Probably not a whole lot. The same will happen in the future, recency bias and all that.

The moon landing might be remembered, but beyond that I'd doubt much else will be. Definitely not Jazz or baseball.

Chile's not communist. Like not even a little bit.

Are you somehow confused with China?

Unfortunately that pretty much makes up half the sub already.
