I don't think that the rag called globalresearch.ca should be cited in polite society. Russia and Syria good, US bad. US is the worst perpetrator of genocide, kills trillions of innocents, while Russia, Serbia, and Assad try to save them.

Flavius says

Like it or not we have killed more people to free them and give them a democratic government than anyone else has killed since WWII.

Where is the counterfactual? Who has killed less in proportion to their power?
You assume you can just decree "no one will die", just hold hands and sing Kumbaya, and the world will turn into an utopia.
It will not.
People fight each other. Most of the time for very bad ideas. People are stuck in bad situations. People fail to organize, to prevent disease, etc...

BTW - do the Marxists, Commies and Islamists have any responsibility for the deaths they caused in South/Central America, Africa and Asia since WWII? Or does America only get dinged for every death on the planet?

Nope, all that is fault of USA. Even Stalin's death camps were financed by Roosevelt, who also financed Nazi death camps. America also started WW1, WW2, genocide in Rwanda, and Franco-German war of 1870. Black death in 1300's was caused by American military industrial complex - they released modified pathogens in Asia and Europe to harm Russia.

Florida State Supreme Court

Except that the Katherine Harris/FL re-count thing of 2000 has nothing to do with Trump winning the Great Lake states, a fight which was won, fair and square, as Hillary had no interest in campaigning for 'loser' rust belt votes which she saw as lazy and stupid against her Ivy League types of Boston, NYC, and DC.

Back in 2000, there's an actual person, Ms Harris, and a state with 2.91M+ voters but with Bush winning only by 537, barely 0.01%.

This is how I'm making sure that my vote count ...

and that the Democrats don't try to get away with a type of 2000 AD redux.

She is already flogging a line of Trump branded silk Muslim veils and gold plated instruments of torture.

I’d watch Bloomberg and Bernie in a fart contest.

It's different this time...

The world is far more peaceful under capitalism than it was under Stone Age agriculture.

2% male violent death rate per annum in pretty much every stone age culture in the world, then or now. That's worse that almost any war in modern times.

Flavius says

We have a very special set of skills (weapons) we bring to the table when freedom and democracy is involved.

Some ASSHOLES have to die to bring peace. This has always been the case.

Who in their right mind would have Hillary as their vp? That's just dangerous

The Ivanka Guillotine is the tasteful way for a adulteress to be sent to hell!

We have come to expect more from you. The Guillotine was an execution product of French culture, totally out of alignment with the stoning execution style of Islam culture. A better quip would have be to have an adulteress stoned to death by stones rapid-fire squeeze shot from Ivanka's tweety. You know, how some strippers in Philippines can shoot eggs across a room right into someone's beer.

Think like a Clinton!

Flavius is a bot.

Shall I kill it? It seems to be growing in sophistication every time it comes back.

You think? I assume you've got IP or location data to reference on your end from past bots? Definitely more sophisticated if it is.

The only reason I question it is the images. Has the same tone of a previous bot looking at the content, but they/that never posted images.

I do think so, given that the tone is the same anti-US-government stuff the known Chinese bots used to post.

One key would be human interaction. Does @Flavius respond like a human? Ie, does it pass the Turing Test?

If it wasn't for the bulwark of the USA, the rest of the world would be Islam or dead. As Judge Judy would say, what's your pleasure?

Patrick says

I don't care either way. Wasn't sure how image posting works (ie. if you can copy and paste and not use the choose file and upload buttons). Was under the impression you had to upload images manually and therefore that would likely eliminate it being a bot. The content is similar to past bots for sure. Layer on the fact it's a new account you're likely correct. The posting of images is new though (sophisticated as you obviously mention).

Sorry, forgot to mention that US of A is also responsible for 13th-century crusades.

Can she drop a loaf in Bernie's mouth while flying by and kill him with a turd cafe coronary, yelling "Cowabunga, there's your free shit KommieFuck!"?

No chat-bot I've seen can be humanlike.

That said, heres a cool chatbot tool I've been using for my prospecting. Www.amocrm.com it brings in my texts, emails and FB messenger chats into one spot, then responds accordingly. I fucking love it

Killers where Fucking White males!!!

South Carolina is an open primary state, so you can write in Donald Trump on the Democrat ballot.
Would be pretty funny if Trump won the Democrat primary in SC as well.

Shine the halo, or go for the pitch fork to the gizzard? Choices, choices. Is there such a thing as Pandertard Lite?

Bloomberg needs to debate wearing one of those gold masks and hoods from 'Eyes Wide Shut'.

Do not know what Chinese city you hail from, but hopefully you can stay safe from the Corona Virus.

So, where in the favelas should we plant our new flags?

Malaise?

We are literally kicking the rest of the worlds ass...economically we are a powerhouse. Wages keep rising. Never in my life have I seen so many obscenely prices concert tours...a pure luxury expense.

Military wise? Even your Chinese government won’t screw with us.

Don’t take the idiot Democrats debating nonsense as representative. There’s millions of young people in the middle of the US making hay like never before and more than willing to fire bullets down Chinese pieholes in order to keep it that way.

Malaise my ass.

The rest of the world is pretty much in a Recession right now - except for us. We have the best GDP growth rate of any industrialized country right now, while experiencing 50 year lows in unemployment and continuing industrial production gainz.

Here's Germany - getting the shit kicked out of it by Brexit and waiting for the wallop from Trump renegotiating the grossly one-sided US-EU Trade Agreements

The economy will just POWER OUT! just like 2006!

NO taxes on dishes made from face! Bullets should be FREE - it is my human right to machine-gun anyone I do not like! etc

We all are from Cut and Shoot, Texas. There is no danger of flu there, but we do have huge bot farms housed in this town.

It's interesting that memories are so short.

Does anyone remember the 2000s, where Cheney/Rumsfeld (since Bush wasn't doing his job) ran endless wars in the middle east and when outsourcing was 'All the Rage' where even suggesting that 'we stop outsourcing American jobs (either IT tech or blue collar)' was tantamount with either being a terrorist a/o a communist? Yes, those were the so-called good olde days where the 'nice guy' President wasn't even doing his job and let a bunch of Cold Warriors and defense contractors run his administration.

And how did the successor, Harvard Law scholar Obama, respond to the above? Let's not call it Afghanistan Part Deux but ... 'A Surge' and then, support some dumbass Arab Spring movements causing more military junta types to show up, in other places.

So yes, let's outsource jobs and be the world's policeman of the middle east.

I think if anything, Trump's blown the whistle on prior administrations for not putting America first, sending our boys into harm's way while sending their parents' jobs to Asia and eastern Europe w/o any recourse. Yes, I prefer an asshole over a 'nice guy' anytime of the day.

The Democratic and Republican party elites, joining forces as they did in the 1972 presidential election, will do to Sanders what they did to George McGovern, who lost in 49 of the 50 states.

Your lips to God's ears. What is most important is the House flips.

We've much more advanced Socialist Intersectional Turd Worldist Infilatration now, however. This year's McGovern will win CA, OR, IL, MN, NY, NJ, VT, and MA.
