This is true of any news source that consistently hits certain narratives. Regular viewers will inevitably begin thinking those narratives are a bigger issue than they thought previously. How many foreigners are afraid to visit the United states because they fear getting shot or abducted by ICE, despite extremely low risk of either happening? It’s because of where they get their news. The only way to mitigate this is to get news from diverse sources and to talk with lots of different people.

That’s just people in general.

That depends on what role religion plays in a society. In a non religious society, those people are drawn to other positions of authority where they can perpetrate. For instance teachers and social workers are among the worst when it comes to occupations where these people end up.

That’s not what I said

I’ve only seen better benefits, pay, and protections over the last 20 years. Not sure what to say.

Worker benefits are better than they were 10 years ago, and way better than 20 years ago. Wages have gone up, and keeping pace with inflation with varying degrees of success over the years. People work less than they used to is what I’m saying. I work less than my parents did and I think it’s a good thing. But the economy will slow down because of it.

You can’t compete with a nation that doesn’t feel bad about exploitation of workers. If the workers cooperate then you can get a crazy amount of productivity out of them. The united states is losing its power because we aren’t willing to work as we used to. It’s a tradeoff, but I’m fine with it except that I’m not sure I trust China/Xi Jinping as the world’s superpower. He eliminated term limits when he took power, and I’m sure has no intention of going anywhere for a long time. Everyone so busy celebrating Trump looking bad, but forgetting that it could be and will be a lot worse for the western world under a Chinese dictator.

Yes, please screw the entire world economy and use it to fund global jihad. As long as it embarrasses Donald Trump then it’s worth it.

That makes more sense

I was curious why they didn’t mention Israel or Lebanon and so I read the article and concluded that it’s because it’s not about Israel or Lebanon.

Blows my mind that people cheer on Iran. Is it just a simple, anti trump, anti Israel reaction?

That’s different on a lot of levels, starting with the fact that Jesse Owens wasn’t from Germany. But also it’s tough comparing Trump directly to Hitler because you have to make assumptions about what Trump will do, based on the way Hitler was at the time.

We don’t have to let people like Kash or Trump try to make it about themselves, and we don’t have to try to force something onto the athletes that they never intended or stood for. It’s disgraceful that we can’t simply celebrate with them, disgraceful that powerful politicians try to steal their glory, and disgraceful that certain leftists are too full of anger to allow themselves to enjoy life for even one second.

It’s an invitation from the leader of the country they represented. It’s very normal and is happening all over the world right now in different countries who are celebrating their accomplishments during the winter Olympics. Unfortunately now after the fact, there are a lot of people trying to use them for various political ideologies.

Coward isn’t the word. They are excited and proud about winning the gold medal, and they have every right to be. Other people making it political in one form or the other isn’t their problem.

They did and they do. This story got blown up into something that never existed, at least as far as the men go. Wont speak for Trump…

I think that’s only if you are registering to vote in a different precinct, if you aren’t already on the voter rolls in that area. Basically whenever you move. I’m not sure how other countries handle it when you move.

Your country probably requires voter ID if you aren’t from the United States…

Uhh, seems like it’s way more “fashionable” for Europeans to bash the US if anything.

Or if they were fake. Hard to say.
