The equivalent of sticking your fingers in your ears and loudly shouting 'lah! lah! lah!

The equivalent of asking a soldier about the battle.

When congratulations. You must be one of the very few that didn't go bankrupt after dealing with Trump Meet the (Many) Small Business Owners Stiffed by Donald Trump | Inc.com

Thanks for your insightful and unbiased view of the matter. I don't know about others on here but I'm certainly convinced.

Well as has been already highlighted by Pomchop above, maybe you should ask the REPUBLICAN governors what they think as they seem to disagree with you a LOT. 'Republican South Carolina Gov. Henry McMaster said at a Tuesday press conference that federal assistance had “been superb,” noting that Biden and Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg had both called and told him to let them know whatever the state needed. McMaster added that the administrator of the Federal Emergency Management Agency, Deanne Criswell, had also called. He said, “So we’re getting assistance, and we’re asking for everything we need.” Fact check: Amid bipartisan praise for Biden hurricane response, Trump falsely claims reviews are ‘universally’ negative | CNN Politics

It's YOUR post and YOUR article and it says the claim is false. If you want to talk about whether immigrants should/shouldn't get funded then that's a completely separate argument. And the 'sources' you guys rely on maybe are different but they usually always say the same thing or at least provide a narrative to your echo chamber.

Reading compression not a strong point for many Trump fans on this site. It literally says the claims are false in the linked article and that the funds are separate but that still doesn't stop the demented comments flowing. It's no wonder many on here are Trump fans - you are all so easily manipulated.

Firtstly, Elon isn't the only person to have made some major contributions to humanity but he is one of the very few who feels the need to continually spread debunked conspiracy theories (the point of this whole post). Whether it was loudly declaring that children are immune from catching Covid or George Soros “wants to erode the very fabric of civilization” and “hates humanity.” or that Jews have promoted “dialectical hatred against whites” and deliberately facilitated mass migration into the U.S. by “minorities” or when he allows a number of accounts that flood X (Twitter) with misinformation and racist tropes which in turn he boosts visibility with a one-word reply (“Concerning,” “Crazy,” “Evil”) or just punctuation (“!!”) to what we have here which is a white supremacist trope of a “Great Replacement' which has widely been debunked. His genius in science doesn't also give him a no consequence free pass to spread antisemetic, anti-immigration, anti-vacine propaganda that in turn influences so many people who like yourself, hold him in such high regard. In the immortal words of Spiderman, 'with great power comes great responsibility', something ol' Elon seems to not give a cr@p about.

Another 'expert' who feels compelled to comment when they don't have the slighest idea about what they are talking about.

It's no wonder you're such a Trump fan boy. So easily led by those looking to manipulate you.

Google gives Thailand a big thumbs up with a major investment that will create 14,000 jobs annually until 2029 and by the look of so many posters here you would have thought they'd just declared war. This is EXACTLY the kind of good news Thailand needs right now to turn around it's image as the 'sick man of ASEAN' and finally bring in some much needed investment. https://world.thaipbs.or.th/detail/has-thailand-become-the-sick-man-of-asean-thailands-prolonged-political-crisis/228

Irrespective of whether he could/couldn't help, once he 'decided to flee to a relative's house in Ang Thong.' a very large book is going to land on him from a very large height. How could you run away when those poor kids are still trapped inside the bus? Beggars belief.

''Musk's comments center around a theory regarding immigration and voting patterns in the U.S. According to Musk, Democrats are hastening the naturalization process for undocumented immigrants to create a new voting bloc that would significantly favor their party in future elections' A massively debunked theory often quoted by right-wing nationalists, The Proud Boys and The KKK. The man is just one big conspiracy nut with unfortunately a platform that elavates his voice to the masses. And of course all the Trump fan boys on this site.

If you were polite you would say they were mistaken. Slightly more aggressive you would say lying. For an honest assessment though you would say they all have an agenda to benefit themselves and that's really all they care about.

Well thank you again for reverting back to type with your usual condescending nonsense. 'Paul Nipkow was a German inventor best known for creating the Nipkow disk, a crucial technology that laid the foundation for mechanical television. His invention allowed for the first experimental transmission of television images by breaking down images into a series of scanning lines, which were then transmitted sequentially' 'August Karolus developed a highly sensitive photocell in 1923. With better transmission quality and shorter transmission times, he made phototelegraphy marketable' 'In 1931 (5 years after Baird), Zworykin completed the design for his video camera tube: the iconoscope that would form the basis of electronic television. By 1932, the RCA Company was already mass-producing televisions with Zworykin's iconoscope, and people living within a 100-kilometer radius of New York became history's first television audience.' 'Max Dieckmann submitted an application to the German patent office in April 1925, for which a patent was issued in October 1927'. - another year after Baird. No one is saying these people did not contribute or indeed improve upon TV but it is WIDELY agreed that in 1926, John Logie Baird, gave the first public demonstration of a true television system. That's why he gets the credit. Simple. As an example, this is a good article Who Invented Television? | HISTORY

Not sure I agree with all that. On the subject of TV it’s agreed that John Logie Baird gave the world's first demonstration of a working television in January 1926. However Farmsworth and the likes should also get credit for their major contributions. As is normal with these things, inventors rift off others but the credit usually goes to the one that comes out with the finished product. Even Bell was 90% there but needed Grays immersion in a soluble to complete the product.

I would question the Telephone. There’s a big question mark over who did what and he should have at least acknowledged Grays contribution to the invention. History favours the victors though.

Especially when they are using inventions to justify this and that most of the inventions these guys are touting are Scottish https://www.scotland.org/about-scotland/culture/scottish-inventions

Firstly Tinder is not for guys meeting guys- that’ll be Grindr. Secondly, I suspect you are struggling because everyone you meet gets bored to death by your pseudo intellectual rants that veer off on the most frustrating of tangents. Myself included.

“All major contributions to mankind have come from white men”, so we’re just excluding China, The Middle East and all of the rest of Asia? Or are you just not referring to them because they’re not, you know, black?

And they removed it and apologised in super quick time https://www.businessinsider.com/african-american-museum-in-dc-apologizes-for-whiteness-chart-2020-7 My god even Trump Jr. said "These aren't 'white' values. They're American values that built the world's greatest civilization. And although I don't disagree there's 'no need to take it too literally or to the extreme so that whites who relate to this are good or bad or inclusive or racist' - I will however question the posters motives in why he would post such a controversial list in a forum with no comment and no explanation other than 'White Culture'.

And by the way, equal rights for others and tolerance of other religions doesn't mean fewer rights for you. It's not pie.

Not quite sure if you are advocating for this or holding it up as a reason not to be white:- 'You get what you deserve'? - nice victim blaming there. 'The family structure' - straight out of the 1950's. 'Emphasis on Scientific method' - completely contradicted by 'Christianity is the norm' and anyone who has ever questioned a scientist with their own 'scientific view'. 'History' - written by the victors of course. 'Hard work is the key to success' - and it's helps if Daddy hands you a few million and you have no social barriers to upward mobility. Like skin color. 'If you didn't meet your goals you didn't work hard enough' - in making someone else rich. 'Christianity is the norm' and 'No tolerance for deviation from single God concept' - how very Christian of you! 'Wealth = worth' - really? You have no worth unless you are rich? I beg to differ. 'Your job is who you are' - no it's not. Thankfully humans are slightly more nuanced than this. 'Women's beauty based on blonde - thin' - best you get out of Thailand then and try and find yourself an Aryan superior woman then . And don't get me started on 'Man's attractiveness'. 'Justice' - certainly better if you're white. 'Win at all costs' - no. Just no. 'Winner/loser dichotomy' - the problem with the US in particular and the world in general. 'Majority rules - when whites have power' - and when they don't? Was this written by the KKK? What outdated, racist, bigoted nonsense you have for some bizarre reason proudly posted on AN. You lot are getting so emboldened these days to not even bother hiding your racism. It's disgusting.

As usual, your viewpoint has all the nuances of a 3 year old trying to solve Pythagoras's Theory. 15 year of Tory rule that has left the UK on it's knees and it's Starmer's fault (after all of 3 months) because he got a few suits and a ticket to Arsenal. Your bias is just so extreme as to be laughable. Your insights so infantile it's like listening to a reporter for The Mail. Try and put a coherent and balanced point of view across for a change and maybe, just maybe you might get a 'like' (because you must be getting bored of 'sad').
