We do and we dont. Almost 350 million people have differences of opinion quite frequently. Thankfully most of the world thinks our positives outweighs our negatives.

Either that or they are too weak to stop us in any meaningful way. We've seen how many genocides over the past few years from superpowers and no one does anything? Only way you'll see a real check on America or China's power is through a world War which everyone rightfully wants to avoid.

To be fair, determining that is exactly his fucking job right? If not him, who?

Well for one, he'd make it worse for Americans, specfically women.

America often acts it's own self interests which are going to run counter to the world sometimes. But if I am chosing between voting to benefit my fellow Americans or some other country... it's gonna be America. I expect and witness the same from every other country as well.

No shortage of documentaries or reality TV. We live in a land of plenty. What you watch is up to you though. They even remade cosmos in 2014, so there's interest there.

Every one you mentioned is great! I really enjoy all of the villainess isekai, and Trapped in a Dating Sim is really a hilarious variation that came early in the dating sim sub genre. I love it when the main character is a villain.

Ascendance of a Bookworm is a favorite of my wife and I. We've rewatched it a few times, as it has a cozy feel to it sometimes. I really hope they continue the story but it is at a decent enough stopping point if doesn't get any more seasons.

Snoop has felt so over exposed the past few years that most of his projects just look like ridiculous cash grabs. This is no different, but I really want to subject the Red Letter Media guys to this and watch their review more than I want to see whatever movie is actually made.

"We must prioritize policies that protect our economy and our way of life. CO2 is an essential nutrient for mass, driving growth and boosting plant production. According to the CO2 Coalition, higher CO2 levels have led to healthier crops and improved food security worldwide,” said a UCP member speaking in favour of the policy who cited the notorious CO2 Coalition.

Reminds me of the joke where 100% of people who consumed H2O die.

What's kinda crazy to me is that if we rounded the whole group up, we'd probably get a few cops and military personnel working with them.

"Some of those that work forces..."

Is the Earth also in the Pangea state? I'm glad you mentioned it or I would scrolled past without noticing the flags on the arms either!

You've jumped to conclusions. My statements weren't in defense of her actions, they were an example of what it would take to make me concerned for my safety which was not present if the facts given. To rephrase:

"If someone started acting suicidal, or like someone was going to die, while driving the car I'm in, I'd fear for my life."

You know how people pontificate online about what it would take to make someone's crazy behavior happen? And to express where you might draw the line in a similar but still hypothetical situation? Yeah that's all this was.

There's no hate for any particular religion within me, besides the generic atheist dislike for extremists that harm others.

It could go down though. The decision to move products away from that plant can be made and diminish the bartering power of everyone there in favor of more friendly negotiations at another facility.

There is a breaking point. It's just intentionally hard to know exactly where it is.
