Jesus founded the Catholic Church and created the traditions to interpret scripture and to guide us. The fact that you disrespect the Church means you don't understand the Bible.

If you think the Catholic church was founded by Christ, you are fucked in the head, plain and simple.

were the liberals right??? is minnesota lost to the somali seas? or did they just finally start getting help from the cops? or did libs stop filming because they realized it wasn't helping? i'm really curious why we had such a sudden mid-season shift in the way things were heading.

The libtards have lost Minneapolis and given up on their antics. Local & state cops are cooperating w/the feds now after Trump spanked Walz in private via telephone. There were a few days of performative screeching about betrayal by Walz, etc., but they all pretty much clammed up and have fucked off to other more important things. Like, I dunno, picking their noses or something, since we've heard fuck-all from Minnesotan faggots for awhile now.

A deep background check by the FBI is actually pretty cool. Every time I get a NICS check, the results come back in seconds.

QFT.

I had to get a security clearance about ten years back for a project at work. Ever since being granted that clearance, I've never waited more than a couple minutes for a "background check" to buy a gun, and 99% of that wait is the dealer typing in my info from the form. It's pretty nice.

Flip flopping between, "it's so over," and, "we're so back," this much is like jumping back and fourth between a walk in freezer and a sauna. Only instead of a cold you catch Annoying Fagitus.

Imagine wasting thousands of taxpayer money, energy and rare earth minerals when the solution to crime is just to lock and deport all niggers and trannies back to africa.

You're acting like their goal is to reduce crime though. Which is lol lmao.

You're a literal bot. It all went downhill with AOL and the never ending flood of kiddies

I mean, that’s kinda where the internet started for people who weren’t rich

It’s a bit difficult for me to imagine the thing that introduced me to the internet killing it before it introduced me to it

Yes, other countries tariff the shit out of of each other, and particularly us. Japan, UK, Germany, France, Canada, Mexico - all “allies” - have no problem tariffing our goods and tilting the tables in their favor. This is not new, it’s been ongoing for centuries - remember that little thing we almost never talk about, called the Tea Party? We’ve been wheeling and dealing as a country since before we even were a country

I'll give a concrete example:

I bought a Retrotink 4k, a very one-of-a-kind device that costs $750, add to that the overseas shipping of $25, that's already a hefty sum. But then my country added VAT of 23% AND the EU added a tariff of iirc 10% on top of that which made the price somewhere above $1k. Then UPS added on *their* surcharge for processing the VAT and tariffs as well.

You can make the argument that the 23% is the equivalent of a given states sales tax (iirc California has something comparable)

Best part? The package sold by an American seller came to me straight from manufacturing... From Taiwan

And all that money flowed to the bridge troll the EU and polish government. To be perfectly clear - I would've paid $1k for it, it's just that fucking good of a box. But I want to pay it to the American people to make it, and not to the gay EU faggots who use that money to import rapeapes and trannies.

"Hey, I can't help but notice that you've been going all gas no brakes on the fucking power posting in the politics thread lately. Maybe ease up a little on that because I'm coming to you and asking."
"No problem, I understand that that can be irritating and will adjust my output."
It's not particularly hard to do what you're supposed to be doing and not fuck up on here, especially when the guy who owns the site will ask you respectfully to change what you're doing.

[>IMPLYING]

has anyone been keeping up with that whole reform UK thing? It feels like the UK is finally getting the trump they needed.

Yeah, he's pretty great.

Rupert Lowe and the REEEstore party?
I've been glancing at Sargon's shilling for it, the ultimate mark of death.
It's too little too late. Splitting the conservative vote between Reform, Restore, and the Tories is a retarded idea.
They all hate each other, especially those DIRTY PLEBS in the Restore party. So forming a government from those parties is unlikely.
Demographics are destiny, and the foreigners and race traitors in the UK outnumber the Patriots now.

There will not be a Shire.

UK demographics aren't awful — I elaborate here.
tldr: Whites still put out more babies per year and the demographics still favour the natives by a wide margin. The only thing that benefits the immigrant demographics is when you imported them, otherwise they still have equal or fewer kids than whites. Fertility rates make it seem like they're having more because it more or less doesn't account for new arrivals.
Reform went from nothing to a major party in less than a year, and I attribute that to increasing use of social media and the internet for news in lieu of TV/Radio/Papers/etc. It effectively mirrors the rise of Trump and the heavy use of the internet in helping to counter the MSM during his first campaign, so that's more or less the hope for Lowe. He's got 3 years yet, which is plenty of time.

To make this more American relevant, the Trump administration was cited many times as a point of inspiration for Restore's deportation plan. (He's mentioned 14 times throughout)


Trump's self deportation to forced deportation ratio is 4:1

When applied to the UK illegals, it'd mean their complete removal within less than 2 years.

(I also wasn't aware until I read this that illegals in the US were offered $1000 to leave voluntarily)


Politicians mostly act via precedent, and the virtue of Trump's immigration response is that it acts as precedent for Conservatives in other countries to try and follow. The situation is genuinely on the up and up and you can take recent embarrassments (such as the OSA) as the death rattle of a dying zeitgeist, similar to the Biden presidency.
TLDR: We're all gonna make it.

Call us when you've got your own ICE.
For now, you're still just Eurocucks.

Honestly, I'm disappointed in Spain more than you Britbongs because they already fought off a fucking invasion ages ago. And now they just let them in. Shamefur dispray.

Nah, you're coping. Has your side tried more gay race communism?

My side? Are you only capable of thinking in binary. Imagine your whole worldview revolving around is right vs left, republicans vs democrats.

If you are this dense then discussing politics with you would be as pointless as discussing it with a 4 year old.

Name me one Democrat who doesn’t ultimately support gay race communism.

While I fully understand @mlanguishi's concern and I would agree in general (because psychos and schizos are uniquely unpleasant and dangerous), I can see your point. When I was in J-school, the lead professor had a sign on his door: "If you don't want it printed, don't let it happen."

I caught shit in grade school for writing down some rude shit down in a note, and so I learned to never leave receipts early on.

mlanguishi reminds me a bit of a guy I knew for a bit who had a meltdown over a girl he dated for two weeks dumping him.

Thread tax: Washington state issues record CPA licenses... and 60% of them are to international test takers. Apparently no, you do not need to be a citizen to become certified in the US. If you are in business you may have heard a lot of bitching about a CPA shortage (hint: CPAs are worked 60 hour weeks without OT making it not a worthwhile venture). This appears to be their new bright idea.

The inclusion of India and the Philippines is particularly sinister if you pay any attention to the hiring practices of the largest firms. A huge percentage of entry level positions are outsourced to those two countries for a third of the price to hire a graduate out of college. Gaining a CPA edges out even the more qualified Americans from being competitive when you can pay a third worlder minimum wage or less.

I recall at some point Deloitte even estimated that their workforce would be close to 1/3 Indian within the next year or so. Fucking grim.

AI is a real threat to jobs, except it stands for An Indian. I yearn for the day of the flush, please Trump-sama, ruin the lives of every corpo who screws over American workers by hiring poos.
