yeah britain isn't even the shining beacon of the world

we've made some terrible choices in the past decade or so (e.g. being so close to the US, leaving the EU) and we are just as affected by the rising wave of alt-right/nationalist/hatred as what's happening in america

Not to mention most of the Alt-Right/nationalist leaders are actually from the UK...

What does it mean to be white when everyone in your ideal world is white too? Sounds boring


For homogeneity in general it means no identity politics. That makes it easier to focus on ideas and policy as opposed to equal outcome between groups and race hustling.

For multiculturalism to work we need to hold every group to the same standard. If we hold the religious belief that every different outcome is a result of discrimination, it cant work. South Korea and Japan dont have to deal with this.

South Korea and Japan do have to deal with huge suicide rates, overworking and aging populations with not enough people having sex to make up for it, though.

It's what stops ISPs from charging for "website package plans".

Wanna watch Netflix? Gotta buy the streaming service plan for an extra $15/month (on top of paying the actual site for the service in the first place)..
Wanna do online shopping? Get the shopping plan that includes Amazon and eBay for only $12/month!

And here's an example of that. This is MEO, a telecommunications company in Portugal. Portugal doesn't have net neutrality:

YSVyWa4

This was already debunked as a mobile plan already, not an internet one. Portugal does have Net Neutrality because it's part of the EU, and the EU has Net Neutrality for all it's members. The internet is free, but mobile is not.

Polycosm posted...
Basically every nation agrees it's happening, so that's not an issue.
It was an issue before the Paris Agreement, and it's still an issue in the US.

The Paris Agreement is 100% non-binding. Every country sets their own goals and no country is obligated to subsidize another. The point of Paris Agreement is to lay the foundation for confronting climate change, in the hopes that we can snowball towards some kind of sustainable future. Yes, it's extremely basic and completely toothless, but it's better than nothing. We have to start somewhere.


No, you don't start off on something that's basically a blank check to the world. Why call it the Paris 'Agreement' if there is no agreement? Let's call it what it really is...Paris Cash Grab.

We give money to a bunch of politicians from all around the world and you think they'll use that money for good instead of pocketing it? And countries like China and India, 2 of the world's biggest emitters are classified as Third World countries so they can receive money and still pollute?

The Paris Agreement is a scam. Everyone will go through the motions and continue to pollute while asking for money from the US. The US should NEVER join unless there are conditions in place.

The US is the second biggest emitter in the world next to China.

It doesn't matter who your ISP is, they're going to abuse the lack of regulation should they kill Net Neutrality.

they'll abuse it but I'm sure the market will come out with the "well you can access all of your favorite sites with no limitations for *insert amount here*" <_< yeah it sucks but everybody's acting like it's the end of the world.

Here is a very real possibility of what our internet will look like if net neutrality dies. Along with them being able to just block sites they don't thing agrees with their agenda.

Actually, Portugal and every other country in the EU have Net Neutrality. That thing is for mobile, which several commentators on that tweet have already pointed out. They can still access whatever they want with the actual internet.

Some countries in Europe (Like my Gibraltar) should still have Net Neutrality, though, so maybe I'll consider moving back soon, which would also avoid the potential dictatorship in the US. Canada will still have Net Neutrality too, though US Telecoms have been trying to muscle into there.

They're still trying. Comcast recently held a meeting with Ajit Pai where they asked him to make the FCC not enforce net neutrality rules. I believe he's expected to get rid of net neutrality Thanksgiving Weekend.

Look at Europe . You'll get your answer

Why can't we look at the refugees that are already in the country? You know, the group of people overwhelmingly become small business owners and have a net impact on their local economies while showing lower instances of criminality compared to the general population?


because the select few that came in were screened up the ass for any terrorist shit.
meanwhile, the ones in europe flocked like a flood. terrorists included (let the refugees in: so far over 20 terrorist acts in the last 2 years)

Europe is geographically connected to the Middle East, while North America has oceans between them, Europe and Asia. Of course they'd flood into Europe.
