One of those quotes was clearly sarcasm. However, you need a certain level of education to understand that. No worries.
The lowest form of wit and unimaginative use of rhetoric in a single sentence. I've never seen so much shape-shifting in one username.

{quote} There's only so many nutrients in the soil, only so many sources of energy, only so much land/air/water that isn't polluted. Are you suggesting ecological destruction is a myth? Or that the population is sustainable as it is with a simple reduction and alteration of consumption? The truth is we're already sprinting against time. We either cut some of our losers sooner or suffer drastic losses later on. There's nothing inhumane about it; if anything it's my love of humanity and life that leads me to the conclusion that it's a beneficial scenario...
Yeah, the one time I see a straight man in a Prius is when his wife made him buy one.

{quote} Can't really comment on the Marley/Tosh thing - it's a can of worms. But oppression with The Who? perhaps... I think there was very definitely a "class" thing going on. I love the fact they turned up to the '67 "Summer of Love" festival and trashed the stage. If you remember, Hendrix also torched his guitar.

Well what I was implying by using such references as Bob Marley and Peter Tosh, as well could be other groups like The Doors, CSNY, or The Beatles, Hendrix included is that at the time of their height they represented the counter culture, going against the mass cultural establishment. What is ironic in today's climate is that the music industry has now become the mass culture and part of the MSM establishment. The Who in my mind still represent that counter culture clash that they were so bold to be in their faces with their loud unabashed rock and roll smash them up style. Same with the Sex Pistols!

{quote} Revolution on our Southern border? That is a brave prediction. Unless when you say revolution you mean "regime change". Then I will completely agree. {quote} Trump's handlers knew he could not strike unilaterally. It was no mistake the other two countries with us was Britain, who gave us birth, and France, who was the midwife.

I should say the brave prediction is predicting it will happen in a few months, which really is suspect but within a few years is more realistic. My point is, a revolution is quite possible when you look at countries like Venezuela and others on the verge of becoming a failed stated, and the next logical step in that evolution is revolution. Mexico will be interesting to watch, as I remember Tom Clancy predicting that Mexico will be a failed state and that the US military will have to intervene in order to deal with the existential threat that the drug Czars present. IMO, I think the Mexican people electing a radical to become their next president, gives US priority and impetus that they indeed will have to secure the southern border based on national security issues more than any other time in its history.

{quote} Quite simple really. If an airline takes my money, they are contractually obligated to give me a whole seat, not half a seat. If their other passengers have spillage, that is not my problem. It is between them and the lardarses. So if they won't or can't give me a whole seat, I walk off the plane and they will have to find my luggage, plus the added complication that my kids come with me.

How would you reconcile the legal challenges, if say the airlines imposed a weight requirement on it's potential future passengers? In reality that is what would have to happen, or an accommodation be made for extra large such as special section made exclusively for them, (of course it will cost a lot more) How do you feel about that? What solutions do you propose to address this problem?

You got a point Jen to be upset about the Syrian crisis, as am I. I have been doing a lot of digging on this one issue for quite some time, and it seems to be pointed at destroying Iranian interests, and their surrounding allies Russia was warned that a strike was coming and made the necessary preparations. In other words not all things appear to be what they are selling you, but a much larger deeper strategy is being played out here and the media is the diversionary tool to propagate the typical hegemony. More on this later. Sigh!

I think it is in the US interest to not let it get that far. Even if we have to do covert regime change to accomplish that. As far as Venezuela goes, I think that ship has sailed, and Brazil will have to deal with that being as they are the power on that continent. I hope so anyway.

{quote} I was thinking the same thing. I would like to give you more insight into this, but requires a little more digging and research on my part. Nevertheless you raise a compelling question with such insight of this important concept that no doubt serves as a calculus of why this is happening to these people. This is not only in Venezuela but all across South America. Brazil right now is the only country that has awoken to repelling socialism and is now trying to undo much of it's mistakes made from it's predecessors that almost destroyed them....
...and this the regime of which Jeremy Corbyn spoke so affectionately. An examination of the demise of Venezuela makes me really unsettled about the possibility of a Labour victory in any forthcoming elections. The UK has at least a few safeguards which should stem the rampant corruption, but only until it becomes established.

On a different theme, I have just finished watching (twice) this fantastic/fabulous/eye-opening documentary on the Vietnam War. The era marks an event which ranks alongside WW-1 as being stuffed with leadership-level idiocy; beginning with (in the case of the US) Eisenhower's attempt to save credibility after failing to secure China from the communists, but having roots which go deeper back into the 19th-Century and French Colonial Rule.

This episode I found eventually, it is the Vietnamese subtitled version which makes understanding the spoken testament from the Vietnamese interviewees rather difficult. I guess the 'English' version is around somewhere. The BBC screened ten episodes which I recorded (PVR). I recommend searching for it. Or maybe there is a DVD in the local library if you don't fancy buying your own from e.g. Amazon.

May is well on her way to displacing Blair as the most evil, warmongering leader we have had. No need for a parliamentary vote to take military action but parliamentary vote after vote to action Brexit, which was a democratic decision by the people? What proof it was Assad? "Highly likely" is not good enough in a court of law. It needs to be beyond all reasonable doubt. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-5614573/Britain-unleashes-salvo-cruise-missiles-against-Syria.html
They keep using that word 'likely'. It is revealing that 'actually' is not required when the mood is to bomb the hell out of somewhere.

Not to mention that Boeing's next fleet of planes, coach will have smaller seats to accomodate more passengers. It is an added cost because you have to fly premium economy if you don't want to be packed into a sardine can.

I'm not, I could do this with you all day long, but it takes away from the spirit of the thread, which is to discuss topics of relevance from each of it's members. You being upset because some of your friends got banned for being anti-semitic is not really a topic. However, if you would like to discuss free speech, I am more than happy to do that.
