Not sure why Canada even bothered. Trump is clearly unpredictable and untrustworthy. He'll go back on his word at the drop of a hat.

No. Once all the trans, immigrants, and POCs are gone, who do you think they're going to oppress? They'll still need a slave force to do their work.

“Each of these devices contains Chinese movies and songs. North Korean students accept them uncritically, enabling Chinese culture to shape our lifestyle to a much greater degree than before. An increasing number of younger people are studying Chinese so they can understand these programs without subtitles,” the source said.

No surprise since there isn't much entertainment available for North Korean students. It's the same reason why Japanese manga and anime became so popular worldwide, there's just not much competition in the field.

Any man out there who meets all her requirements would definitely be taken at her age, unless they happen to be recently widowed.

It's like prosecuting women for having a miscarriage. This country has gone mad.

If a child can't safely travel two blocks alone, it speaks more about the community than their parents. In countries like Japan, Sweden, and Singapore, it's very common for children at the age of 7 to travel to school alone.

I agree, but I would go further and ban cars as well.

  • They’re very dangerous on the road and have high accident rates
  • They’re bad for the environment and cause air pollution
  • They’re extremely inefficient as they can only carry 5 people max
  • They can only carry smaller items
  • They’re dangerous for pedestrians
  • They’re very demanding to operate
  • They’re virtually useless in the winter when there’s snow, ice, and hail
  • The people who tend to drive them tend to be assholes who don’t respect road laws

He voted for this.

“I’m all for ‘get the criminals out of the country,’ right?” he said. “But the people that are here working hard, especially the ones married to Americans — I mean, that’s always been a way to secure a green card.”

That's exactly what they're doing, illegal immigration is a crime.

“It’s just a hell of a way to treat a veteran,” said Carey Holliday, a former immigration judge who is now representing the couple. “You take their wives and send them back to Mexico?”

Why should the law work differently just because you're a veteran?

I'm so glad Trump is discharging trans soldiers, at least they won't have to die in a stupid war.

The “reborn community” has been trying to understand why such an intense backlash has emerged against a type of collecting that has existed in Brazil since at least the early 2000s.

It's called scapegoating. I guess transphobia wasn't enough for Brazil.

“Adult men can collect action figures or play video games without raising eyebrows. But adult women are not allowed the luxury of entertainment,” she said.

That's absolutely not true. Gamers were looked down upon before videos games reached mainstream acceptance. Even now some people, especially the older generation, are still prejudiced against gamers. Collecting action figures is still niche and will definitely draw some ire. Hell, even adults collecting plushies is a problem for some.

“I know artists who have been crying all day because they can’t bear to open their social media and be insulted on every video and photo they post. And to me, this reaction boils down to hate – people just want something to hate,” she said.

Exactly.

So, how much is Trump going to charge for these slave-owner permits?
