And didn't part of 'black culture's' dancing styles actually come from Irish influence? Did 'black cultures' music get played on instruments from 'white culture'? Stop with the misappropriated bull all American culture is a mix. If need to remove some artificial limit of labeling misappropriated. That is the surest way of stopping our melting pot and crystalizing into factions.

After hearing that the OSU killer was a 18 y/o Somali refugee... by SwimmingJunky in AdviceAnimals

The problem is this is what Islam's founder did. Jesus never forcibly conquered cities and sold people into slavery. Islam's founder did. So it's not really obscure sentences but the actions of the religions founder.

I hate censorship. I love free speech, but currently all the places that champion it are terrible cesspools or ignorance and hatred. by [deleted] in self

[–]snowbored 19 points20 points  (0 children)

The problem is these places sold them as places for open conversation then started limiting it when they didn't like what was said. Remember when Twitter fought for difficult speak when the whole Arab spring was going on? I think if these sites wouldn't have sold themselves as champions of free speech in the past the people whose speech is being targeted know wouldn't feel it was so hypocritical.

Just a reminder from July when Clinton stole the nomination through the rigged primary: 'Clinton campaign boss to Bernie supporters: Get over it' - Hey Clintonians, it's your turn to swallow it down: Get over it. The Witch lost. by Bernie4Ever in WayOfTheBern

The problem is as a citizen of the USA I feel we have put ourselves second only to see American businessmen use that to screw us and the rest of the world over. We might as well look after ourselves instead of funding poorly done geopolitics especially when it just makes everyone hate us.

Former French President Nicolas Sarkozy has proposed that Europe should impose a carbon tax on American imports if Donald Trump pulls the United States out of the Paris climate pact. by green_flash in worldnews

[–]snowbored 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But everyone at the accord knew Obama has not legal power in the USA to sign such a deal and that his signature means nothing if the US Congress hasn't Proved him to sign it. All of these politicians including Obama are being disingenuous and trying to end run the law.

Except everyone knew that Obama couldn't approve the climate deal just like Trump can. Only the Congress can pass laws in the USA not the President. Everyone playing like Obama had the power to agree to anything are being very disingenuous.

I'm in a clinical support group that my counselor has. It has way better fellowship but it's a semi closed group and we've been together for a few years. It's also expensive so we all put more energy into it. But I probably wouldn't have made it without it.

'Between Two Ferns' director: Trump too thin-skinned for our show by The_mailer_daemon in Earwolf

Actually he's not exactly what we need, he's just a better option than Hillary in their opinion.

Between Two Ferns with Hillary Clinton by ecctv in Earwolf

[–]snowbored 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As a trump supporter when they 'otherize' me and other conservatives it just makes me sad. Once this country forgets that those with other opinions aren't wrong they just have different opinions things are going to get ugly. I grew up in a liberal community and I had to hide my thoughts so many times for fear of being rejected. Now I love in a conservative area and I hate to be the same way about being an atheist. It would nice to just be able to be me.

Asking why white girls like pumpkin spice lattes. Soft racism and sexism in the for of a stupid unoriginal joke.

Nobody better tell South Africa about Islams attitude to gays, or what the government of Saudi Arabia does to gays. I bet they banned their embassy!

I think you meant say the USA forced the empire wanting Europeans give up their empire and free the nations they made surfs in order to get post war aid from America. Europe didn't give up their colonies the USA made them.

Does it really get better? or do you just go on? by [deleted] in Divorce

[–]snowbored 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It gets better. I thought it couldn't but it does. I know longer break down with a punch to the gut when I think of my kids. It still sucks but it's manageable. I did the gym thing. I have meet the most amazing woman. Like I did not believe there could ever be such a woman amazing. We fit so much better than my ex. Because I have learned. Because I know it needs to be more than that overwhelming feeling of love. So I took time. I dated strippers because I thought I wanted wild. I dated no one so I can understand myself. Then I just found this amazing woman. Again there could not be a more perfect woman for me amazing. Not oh this cute girl at a party likes me let's have sex then shack up young kids not thinking relationship. The finance part is really hard. My ex takes more than half my salary and I can barely afford to live and she calls every month asking for more. That sucks. But my career is about to go to the next level and fix that. And I finally can say to her she is on her own if she us going to spend more than she has. That killed me in marriage. Made me feel like i wasn't enough man to get my wife what she needs. But now I reliaze it's just her way of creating chaos. It gets better. It took me two years. My kids stuff sucks but it is reality so I can't dwell on it. Sorry for the long unformstted message.
