Translation: he posted incoherent nonsense and once anyone with half a brain looked at it they had to explain that it was completely impossible.
There’s no such thing as a “tariff” on intellectual property. Tariffs are a tax on bringing physical goods into the country.
There’s no physical good being brought through a port of entry for foreign made movies, so claiming to put a tariff on that just shows that you have no idea what tariffs are.
Demonstrating once again that he has no idea how tariffs work.
Tariffs are taxes on the importation of physical goods and they’re charged at the port of entry.
Movies aren’t physical goods and they don’t go through a port of entry.
There’s literally no way to put tariffs on foreign movies but Trump is too stupid to understand that.
The closest thing they could do is charge tariffs on DVDs, and that would have zero impact on anything.
Madame Web wasn’t actually bad.
It wasn’t good either, but also wasn’t bad.
That’s encouraging to hear.
Can you share any links about the strategy changes you think will help?
We can’t control the American voters so complaining about them doesn’t actually accomplish anything.
We can, however, change the Democratic party to better align with the voters.
That should be everyone’s focus.
The democrats objectively were wrong.
They lost the election.
That’s the only measure of right or wrong that actually matters.
They literally had only one job and they fucked it up again.
I make myself a pot of Arabic coffee on the weekends: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arabic_coffee
It takes about 10-15 minutes during which you have to actually watch the pot to make sure it doesn’t boil over, but it’s worth it.
I assume the highlighted region is meant to call out the fact that they’re claiming a metaphorical expression isn’t being used metaphorically.
Yes, that’s incredibly stupid, and yes the entire letter is pro-hate propaganda.
However, I think it’s important to also call out something else about the phrase “wiped of the map”…
It’s an English language idiomatic expression.
Idiomatic expressions are language specific.
When you see a quote attributed to someone speaking Farsi, and it includes English idiomatic expressions, you can be fairly certain the translation is complete bullshit, and whoever created the translation is trying to manipulate you.
100% this.
Don’t just ignore it because they can sue and if you ignore that then you’ll get a default judgment against you which you actually will have to pay even if the original claim was complete bullshit.
On the other hand, if you demand they provide actual proof of the debt they will usually not have it and will just go away.
Trump is full of shit.
There’s no other place for the Palestinians to go.
Egypt and Jordan aren’t going to take Palestinians from Gaza, so all of his talk is just bluster meant to appeal to Israeli right wingers.
He actually did take the oath without putting his hand on a bible and they did try to make a big deal about it.
John Roberts messed up the oath during the inauguration and they had to redo it later.
During the do-over there was no bible: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_inauguration_of_Barack_Obama
Your feelings are valid but the opposite view is also perfectly reasonable.
I would be proud of my wife for being so successful (or, I would have been while I was still alive).
There’s no shame in being in your partner’s shadow. It should be a source of pride and enjoyment instead.
To take an extreme example, look at Dolly Parton and her completely not-a-celebrity husband. Do you think that Dolly Parton’s husband is embarrassed that he isn’t famous or that he’s just thrilled to be married to Dolly Parton?
Not to mention the CCTV Spring Festival Gala (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/CMG_New_Year's_Gala).
This isn’t even remotely close to the biggest.
This is literally the first I’ve ever heard of it.
I doubt I’m the only one and I’m sure that at least contributed to the problem.
Thanks for linking to the video. There is an auto translate option for it buried deep in the CC settings (at least there was for me).
My impression that I was left with is that the guy speaking is basically panicking because he doesn’t want to look bad.
My reaction is “Good. Let the bastards squirm!”
The German government has gone out of their way to silence any opposition to genocide. Fear of looking like a Nazi is the closest they will come to self awareness.
This was in line with my immediate thoughts too.
It seems grossly unfair to judge Japanese people on their ability to speak English.
Use one hand to scoop and use the fingers on your other hand to count to ten. Then you don’t have to remember.
Only if the dog’s but is more than 500 feet above the ground when they poop.
Otherwise it’s not going through public airspace and FAA regulations are not an issue.
