Highly rated for the very good reason that it is genuinely funny. I used to watch it all the time but I can't get Fox here.

Trump named Time’s ‘Person of the Year’ for second time
thaibeachlovers replied to mania's topic in Political Soapbox
While Time seems to have become less influential in recent years, well done to them for gritting their teeth and putting someone that they may not welcome as POTUS on the cover. I might even buy a copy to see what they say about him. -
Hopefully a collection of egotistical wannabees that kick Democrat and liberal butts into touch. I don't know that Trump has "triggered chaos in anticipation", but he's certainly making a few Euro leaders stressed out, which is a good thing IMO. He's not even POTUS yet and he's got the Mexican president making noises about preventing illegals crossing into the US, rather than helping them get there. All good.

Here is a place for Americans to Apologize to Canadians
thaibeachlovers replied to Jingthing's topic in Political Soapbox
Cue exploding heads. -
It occurred to myself when I read the OP that a lot of unprovable claims were being made. I suspect he doesn't know, but they need to sell the things and a spot of propaganda doesn't go amiss for that. Be interesting to ask what the probability of humans still being here next century is, or if God exists.

I agree with most of your post and of course that part as I've been saying that for a while myself. Unfortunately a few ( or many ) actually believe that our science is infallible and fixed. One of the main posters claiming that science ( and polls ) was all knowing seems to have vanished. Perhaps back under a different username, given how wrong he was on so many things.

Thailand Birth Rate Nosedives: 81% Drop Surpasses Japan
thaibeachlovers replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Errrrr, you seem confused about what I wrote. I thought that "One of the few jobs requiring a human will be in hospital and specifically in aged care" indicated that robots will NOT replace humans involved in patient care in hospitals. At least not in the foreseeable future. -
I'm not disputing what you said, but if a 13 year old jumps into a car driven by a stranger and goes to an unknown destination at night time and signs a paper that she obviously didn't understand ( and is not of legal age anyway so it's null and void ), she must either be as thick as 4 short planks, or have a death wish, IMO.

It's a rotten world and bad things happen all the time. Wishin' and hopin' for a decent world just isn't realistic. The Sudanese war has killed way more people than Gaza and Ukraine combined and it's basically ignored by western media. It's not a question of if there was justification for any of it, it just is, a product of vile humans that want war, and plenty of them on both sides. It's in our nature. You don't think the present course could lead to WW3? No. WW3 is The End, and even dictators don't want to eke out their last days in a hole in the ground. It's a convenient boogieman though.

Any NATO country would be excluded as it could lead to WW3, and nuclear winter, so which countries would be left- Australia, NZ, Pitcairn Island, Papua perhaps? No way would any Asian country be getting involved with a Euro squabble- far too sensible for that. So, what would the terms of engagement be- like in the former Yugoslavia when it was reduced to turning up after the slaughter ended and saying "oh dear me, isn't this just awful", or full on shooting war with Russia? Iraq? LOL. It was a tin pot dictatorship with an army only good for suppressing the mob, and as effective as the Syrian army that gave up after 10 days.

Only according to current science speculations. Given how primitive current science is, any possibility exists for faster than light travel. It's been published on who knows how many science fiction movies, and science fiction has many times postulated things that came true. I'm surprised that you accept the current theories without question. I believe it's the Galactic Council fleet waiting to destroy us at the first indication we can escape into the universe. No way will they allow us to contaminate the Galaxy with our violence.

It has occurred to me that whoever was pulling Biden's strings the last couple of years determined that the economy was doomed whoever won the election and inserted a "sure to lose" candidate into the campaign, so that Trump ( and the GOP ) would be blamed for the debacle. Whether that is true or not it does seem that chickens will be returning to roost and the sky will indeed fall, though not because of climate change.

Was Ex police officer Derek Chauvin wrongly convicted !

If you don't know, why don't you just not post anything? The forum is about members opinions, not a cut and paste lecture.
