The idea of God: "some thug who will make you suffer for eternity if you don't do what he tells you to, no matter how much it conflicts with your morals." The far left is godly 😉
People shape the nation, and in turn the nation shapes people
_The idea of God: "some thug who will make you suffer for eternity if you don't do what he tells you to, no matter how much it conflicts with your morals."_ I'm reading that as banter
I can agree with that. I just think that the wording used to describe it is very important so that the important nuances don't fall by the wayside
I don't want to say I'm proud of something I didn't earn, but I will say I'm honored to have the opportunity to live up to the values that I want to hold.
isn't that being proud?
Nope
Being proud of yourself for having that opportunity?
I see it more as an obligation
Shit, what is pride then anyway
a sense of enjoying your superiority
Nothing wrong with that
Everyone likes being the top lobster in some aspect
well i'm not against pride, i'm a proud person myself 😉 just joined the convo so i'm not sure on the view
nuance between being proud to be an American and being honored to be an American
a feeling of deep pleasure or satisfaction derived from one's own achievements, the achievements of one's close associates, or from qualities or possessions that are widely admired.
consciousness of one's own dignity.
You should feel proud to be american, that you can consider yourself part of the greatest country on the planet,
You should feel honored for the privilege to BE american
(and no i'm not american myself)
Neither am I
I feel proud to be Dutch

not enough windmills
I'd feel proud if I had kids to further America, but at the moment, I haven't contributed much to its prosperity
just vote Trump and all will be forgiven 😉
I had aimed to get a 15% for a third party, just to allow them into the debate scene to scare the parties a little
Trump, 2000-ish
He was part of an independent party
But left the party because of his frustration with some of the members
take it from a dutchman, 3rd parties are trouble
First time he disavowed David Duke
Forum Voor Democratie
Ik ben 'r wel fan van
I hope Forum Voor Democratie will win big next election,
I just don't have the faith in the average dutch voter
In the US, it's more likely a third party usurps one of the two parties as opposed to just joining them, historically.

well, in the Netherlands, theres so many different parties, not a single one can get a true majority,
So they form coalitions to achieve majority
Which means you get a chance to get parties you don't support at all to suddenly still call the shots
Tim spoils us on a Holiday
good god that journo video, grade A trolling
Sad that the first past the post voting system makes a two party system the only realistic possibility for the US
