IDK if they're literally religious (the Catholic Church has a surprisingly reasonable take on I/P) but his convictions are fanatical enough that that's just splitting hairs.

I find it slightly interesting in the "shocking, not surprising" way.

I've been saying this: foreign aid should work the same way. If I'm elected president, I will loudly pass a bill to put a cap of 7% of the budget on foreign aid (i.e. increase the amount spent by a factor of ~7)

King of the UK designing an entire small town was a pretty good bit

Not joking, I was seriously considering whether I should just try to become a Canadian citizen and become fully Québécois and abandon life in the Anglophone world but it started to feel like a "better the devil you know" type situation.

That's how I felt in late 2016 when Trump got elected

I think we should treat noncitizen and citizen criminals equally. Some US citizens are extradited to foreign countries, but IDK the exact numbers: perhaps not enough?

Oh sure, I thought you meant flying into Amsterdam overall, not specifically because of walkability. Germans are one of the largest groups of visitors, and a big appeal for them is the combination of a cultured and nonthreateningly debauched atmosphere, not the urbanism.

Republican voters seem to largely appreciate this kind of vicious mockery, so it seems like a place where we should sometimes hold our noses (no pun intended) and pander to them with put downs about their physically repulsive leadership

Tbh seems plausible considering that ~10 million tourists visit Amsterdam per year and >50 million people use Schiphol airport per year (obvs mostly not tourists)

Tbc I do want to make a pro Canada and pro Quebec point on that one

The administrative violation of unlawful entry is like, not ideal, but it's a negligible "problem" to me compared to the shit that native born citizens are up to (eg spreading measles)

The only reason to deport someone IMO is if they are wanted for a serious crime in another country (i.e., already in US custody) or have otherwise done something indicating extreme moral turpitude: otherwise, seems like a waste of time and resources to go after people who aren't causing any trouble.

For political reasons that are only mostly racist these days, American Samoans have a separate lower status of citizenship that differs from that of Americans in all other states and territories.

American Samoa traditionally has the highest per capita enlistment rate in the military among any states/territories of the USA. I wouldn't call the US (at least historically) fascist per se but minoritized and non-citizen/second class citizen troops have always had some presence.

Wait until he finds out how much of Quebec identity is about not wanting to be Canadian

My question is, is this US TV or all TV? Are the British making COVID shows?

Even the racist separatists still identify multiculturalism as an identity and an ideology! They just reject it.

Yeah it's kind of literally the opposite of this
