if donald trump is going to act like a fool, we should happily make one out of him, to the extent that it remains possible.

what a goof...

"The decision to impose tariffs on Canadian softwood lumber was based on the facts presented, not on political considerations," 

lol.

wilbur ross seems to think he's the wto.

what a clown...

but, again: this is empire.

they picked on us because they didn't think we'd fight back. now, they're claiming it's no fair when we did. so, we have to follow through.

the situation is 100% trump's fault, and he's going to have to eventually eat it, if not in public than at least in practice.

people need to freak out about this. you can't have the fcc coming in and shutting down prominent opposition voices, like this.

the reversal, or compromising, of secularism in france would be a betrayal of the revolution, and ultimately fail in it's path to civil conflict. a policy to replace secularism with multiculturalism will end in it's reversal, in a new republic. and, i stand in solidarity with secularism.

the french fought hard to free themselves from the control of the church. allowing themselves to relapse into islam would be historically irresponsible.

a better question is this: how does the french left generate a revolt by muslims against their religion that is comparable to the revolt of the french against catholicism? how do we get them to renounce islam and become secular? and, this is a necessary task, as they are now the core of the lumpenproletariat.

i think it's relatively common for canadians to identify more strongly with the liberal ideals of the french revolution than the conservative ideals of the american revolution. and, i may speak for the average french citizen when i present the following response to this article: yanqui, go home; yanqui, fuck off!
