I think I will try to learn Portuguese. I have four years of American education system worth of Spanish so I should be easy for me to at least put two and two together with words, but I always struggled with learning languages.
How could they make being a bounty hunter in space even cooler?

What to eat?
Today I don't want to cook and feel like getting food from one of the restaurants on my street. Should I get Türk food or Syrian?
Türk Pros & Cons:
+ cheap (I also have a gift card, so I could get Döner for free)
+ I know the menue already and it's good
- I know the menue already (Döner & Pizza)
Syrian Pros & Cons:
+ interesting stuff I haven't tried yet (all kinds of Arab stuff I never heard of)
- a little bit more expensive

>Quality of life in Germany under the Nazis was based on (1) recovery of German industry that started already during the last days of the Weimar Republic regardless of the Nazis
This is a total mirage. The economy of Weimar Germany was tightly coupled with that of USA and USA remained in depression until FDR lifted it out of it with state intervention using Hitler's very own blueprints for doing so.
>(2) an unsustainable economy that relied on seizing assets from Jews and plundering conquered countries.
War economies are by definition unsustainable. Furthermore, practically all that was taken from conquered countries went directly into the war effort. How can an import component that does not exist in peacetime that is used for consumption that does not exist in peacetime be structurally unsustainable?

Those at the bottom will vehemently deny any sort of association or benefit their masters are building.
I had an hour long argument last night about this, which branched off into several smaller topics to move the goal posts of other spooks. But the main idea was that capitalism is benefitting from this new avenue of wealth to both placate their consumers and enrich those who're voluntarily profiting off of these movements.
Still I had zero luck making my point.
of course
but all that stuff is merely a means to an end
that end being fascism for lack of a better term
nazism, but without a hitler.
a man can be smeared and raked through the mud much easier than a corporate brand that everyone depends on for their livelihood
even better if that brand is "fun" and "entertaining" and everyone loves it
setting aside whether one thinks that gays should be allowed to exist, or if theyre an affront against d_g, or whatever for the moment, you dont really think people in the so called elite really give a damn about civil liberties of any kind, do you?
imo, the entire thing is about control
since you brought em up, let us take jews for an example
specifically zionist jews in with bibis cartel
one can hardly call them "leftwing", in really any capacity
in fact they are openly opposed for many leftwing hot-topics, like immigration, multiculti, fags, etc
in their position, its much preferable to be able to create a culture of fear and persecution. this is done by both the israeli govt as well as hamas. neither can exist or hold any real power without the threat of the other.
and since many israelis cultural identity has been built upon persecution, it makes sense that the localized narrative of control would reflect that.
nonetheless, among israelis there are a variety of different groups of jews, and many are treated as second class or in the case of samaritans for ex, as literal palestinians
but the important thing is that the majority believes that the govt is there to protect them, and not enslave them.
if you accomplish that, then the people will not only tolerate your enslavement, they will beg for it
on the wect it is very different as, speaking specifically of my cunt rn, our entire natl identity has been built upon rebellion and personal freedumbs. in this case its far easier to get people to carry out your will if you give the illusion that you support the idea of revolution and civil liberties.
watching both "sides" of our MSM, you can """"clearly"""" see that each side in the culture war is trying to attack and destroy the others way of life/thinking/whatever
>theyre gonna ban guns
<theyre gonna ban abortion
>theyre gonna ban religion
<theyre gonna ban fags
etc
and by astroturfing, agitating, funding, and outright CREATING these various factions, one can again create an air of fear and urgency
this way the useful idiots on both sides escalate every day, creating even more fear and urgency, and all it takes is a little words of encouragement from their favorite tv talkinghead, or preferred youtube ideologue.
in the end, they will all come kicking and screaming and crying for you to save them from the dreaded other side
china and CCP have their OWN way of doing this
and the saudis have theirs too
and so do the cunts in the shia crescent
pootan has his own method
and so on and so forth
TL;DR
in my eyes, this isnt about left or right, but UP, and getting us all to BEG for it
you cant take EVERYTHING away from an entire global population and have them not freak out
unless you can trick them into thinking they want/need it FIRST
Are you for or against The Voluntary Human Extinction Movement?

I feel that the people who you should advertise to shouldn't be Bernds, or really any imageboard dweller, as they'll maybe churn out one kid. There's plenty of others outside of this corner of the web who should make an attempt to at least not shit out babies every weekend.
Though this is less because of enviromentalism and more because irresponsibles (like deadbeats, welfare queens, people who think condoms are Satan, etc) will churn out kids that are born into economic/social disadvantage.
Kinda preaching to the choir here.
corona is already taking care of this (to an extent)
as for actual future, birthrates are decreasing all around the world, even in developing countries, we will soon reach a new equilibrium state
if you want to blame something for the rise in population, blame:
-modern healthcare for allowing humans to live
-agriculture and factory farming for making it very efficient to sustain continued human population growth

Since it is a black market, it is difficult to know how much amber is produced unofficially. But it is large enough to provide a living for the thousands of men, aged between about 16 and 45, who are now involved in it. The governor says about 2,000 dinghies go out every day if the weather permits.
And it’s not just the divers: there is a whole network of entrepreneurs in Kaliningrad who have at some point dealt in the black market for amber. People such as Mr Krupnyakov, the former wrestler. Along with a team of nine other former wrestlers and boxers, in 2014 he started providing “security services” for black market diggers and at one stage 240 of them paid Rbs5,000 each a month for protection from rival gangs of diggers and the police.
But in November 2016, he was accused of attacking a group of amber divers and demanding monthly payments of Rbs10,000 for their “services”, all of which he denies.
Mr Krupnyakov, who also used to be in the police and still has friends in the force, managed to evade arrest. But three of the men he was with were convicted of extortion last August, and sentenced to nearly five years in prison, as well as ordered to pay a fine of Rbs200,000 each. Mr Krupnyakov is now on a Russian wanted list.

I would like to ask anglo speakers. Is it a proper figure of speech or just Trump being Trump? I thought that correct term is inflammable or more sensitive to spread/get fire.
