    I recently learned you cannot express support for NK in SK without a penalty/legal issues. And despite all their Western money (but because of Western influence) they’re a country of plastic, superficial, hedonistic, depressed, aimless and collectively suicidal (birth rate wise) people. Jeez. It’s gonna be interesting to see the eventual reunification.




  • be “European religious”

    genocide the locals

    depend on chattel slavery to work the now empty land

    even though they do what you won’t and would never do what you do, you still find them inferior somehow, less than human

    same with any group that isn’t too Anglo/Germanic, actually, on a colour gradient

    use gunboat diplomacy and raids to keep your neighbours subservient

    use racism to push for war, generation after generation, and they still eat it up

    rape and pillage brown places to your heart’s content

    abuse, murder and incarcerate brown people back home because slavery is still legal if you’re in jail

    But ICE is shocking, lol. No, American hatred, amorality and self-centeredness to the point of psychopathy allowed for both.





  • I didn’t make a value judgement on it, just saying how it usually goes, and of course I can’t account for people’s idiocy and the very Western, redpill, confused and closeted homosexual take of “we’re competitors instead of complementary, women bad because women are feminine”. I mean, my mom’s basically a brain with a mouth, she’s a lawyer who’s also a historian now because she went back to uni in her 60s, lol, and she has never, not even once, cooked us a meal. It’s just not her strong suit, it takes her 30 mins to make a cup of tea which is why my brother ended up becoming the family’s chef, and that’s fine cause she’s always brought home the bacon and paid for everything in my very comfortable childhood, maids included. 🤷

    But maybe, on average, men are better with/more suited to do/less hesitant to do gross things (that are not like bodily stuff), among other things like physically demanding things, and potentially dangerous and stressful things (I know women give birth and this fits all three categories and to the highest degrees, lol, but that’s because we’re all very yin yang, the exception that proves the rule if you wish), and women are better at other stuff on average and then over time and across societies we see it and that’s just a reality of things. Maybe the nice boyfriend is baking, sure, and that’s great, but across cultures women seem more motivated to do so. Again, just a description, any value judgement is kinda pointless and misplaced here, because “pink” and “blue” jobs need to get done and are important (but of course misogynistic folks and those without much reading comprehension and a victim complex will see what they wanna see).

    I think it all depends on the relationships these countries have been establishing with their non Western aligned neighbours on one hand, and how pervasive MAGA styled media is in your country on the other. If the former is bad, then that’s a bit scary but somewhat easy to reverse (look at Canada and China!), but if the latter is badddd then you’re kinda fucked, cause through that angle they can play the usual divide and conquer and then we have what we see in America. Maybe your society is different enough that it wouldn’t take hold, and that would be great. The world doesn’t want war, America and the MIC wants war, but America is retreating (and thank God for that!). And also, evidently, I don’t know the future (I’m not even that competent, intelligent or devoted of a political analyst…) and I hope for the best for everyone (including ICE and MAGA, which in their case means immediately stopping their evil ways, repenting and mending relationships, ofc). 🙏👋





  • I think OP was just making a funny, tbf.

    On one hand, I get what you’re saying: the acceptable thing to think is that Sasquatches do not exist, and conforming is safe, and from that position of power since you’re in the majority you can mock others. Sure, it’s an ego thing, a quick jab to feel strong. On the other hand, maybe there’s just not enough evidence to believe in the Sasquatch and sometimes people share that opinion online. Regardless, you’ve been very courteous and I’m glad we’ve had a pleasant interaction. 👍


  • For me, as someone born and raised outside of North America, the Sasquatch is just part of American mythos, kinda like the “chupacabra” (whatever that is) or La Llorona. But I guess, as some sort of flesh and blood large yet unclassified primate, it’s an easier thing to believe in? Regardless, it would just be kinda sad, yet another group of beings living in fear/threatened by humanity.


  • Okay, for every Sasquatch believer, what does it do for you? Like, how would it change your life one way or another? It would just be another living being that’s been hunted to extinction/displaced by human development, it would just be sad more than exciting for me… And do any of you believe in the existence of the Creator?
