So… Charlize Theron is an African American?

I just looked. Emma Stone as 'Alison Ng'. Damn. Where's the opprobrium for that? I thought you were talking about 'The Martian'.

A black actor was cast in a more obvious Asian role in that particular movie too.

It's not just the 'negros' who don't feel for other races, it's that no one feels for other races. White privilege is there - it's obvious. However, the issue of diversity becomes condensed in America to a literal black and white issue. When talking about diversity, the issue becomes only about black actors not…

I always picked Wario as he always assured me he was going to win.

Black people drive like this,
Whereas white people drive like this.

Living off the land is he doctrine of many armies I believe.

I think it's pretty strongly hinted it's something to do with parallel dimensions.

Lets consult a scientician.

OK. I wasn't aware that was a meme and I haven't seen it before. But I am relaying what I remember about Syria back in those times. Having seen what you are talking about, I still don't really get your point. The street with the cars seems like a reasonably affluent part of town and naturally beyond the reach of most…

I didn't know that stating Syria was a decent country before the civil war was a popular countermyth. This is just something I remember. Compared to its neighbours 10 years ago like Lebanon and Iraq, Syria was relatively peaceful and not abjectly poor. It did not have the same oil revenues as other Gulf states but it…

10 years ago, Syria was actually quite a decent country.

Damn you!!!!!!

If he cries he cries.

Yes, but the other party (USSR) has stopped and its successor, Russia, spends a 10th of the US budget. The only justification is the continuation of US hegemony. Which is not necessarily a bad thing.

Yet Americans don't bat an eyelid that their defence spending is 3 times what the next highest country spends and more than the rest of the top 10 put together.

Is he any relation to Fallujah?

"But many are conditioned to believe universal public healthcare is a gateway to communism"

Nothing as far as I can think of. But more than a few Americans seem to be completely opposed to the concept of socialised medicine.

Still can't understand why so many Americans have such a problem with socialised health care.
