  1. MidwestUSA. My turn. Are you childless and under the age of 30?
  2. Custard for the win.
  3. It’s the masses that we worry about. Not ourselves.
  4. A reminder of Google's political bias against conservatives, censorship, & the use of blacklist. https://web.archive.org/web/20201227235023/https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1343342658949804033.html
  5. Vito beats him.
  6. Vito should bulk up and take on the sucked down 65kg guys.
  7. Valencia match was wild.
  8. Wesley was rag dolled in 60s.
  9. Amine looks undersized and should try something other than a whizzer… and then he did.
  10. This means that the news has propaganda and one should consume multiple sources of information. It is not only printed lies to watch it for, it is also what is not printed.
  11. Well the CIA has executed shady actions against their own country in the past. That is where the trust issues derive from (“if they did not plan”). As far as what “they allowed” with 911, read the signed affidavit from Guantanamo military commission investigator Don Canestraro. https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/23787466-att-b-2021-07-20-donald-canestraro-declaration-dated-20-july-2021 The affidavit outlines the investigation by Canestraro into Saudi and CIA complicity in the terrorist attacks. Here is one article to to get familiar with the content and concern. https://jacobin.com/2023/05/cia-fbi-911-hijackers-cover-up-bush-media
  12. Let us stop this discussion in the international wrestling topic.
  13. China can report facts and a patriot can acknowledge fault in their country. Have some wisdom... I love my kids and yet am aware of their flaws. I gather feedback concerning their behavior from outside my family. Who would have thought that this natural behavior can apply to one’s homeland? The facts in the link are verifiable and should not surprise those that are curious and well read. You can separate the fact from opinion and gain awareness with an open mind…
  14. Either you do not know the definition of war crimes or you do not know USA history.
  15. If referencing Putin is cringe-worthy, why did you first reference Putin in this topic (Putin praised Musk sooo...)? Since we both voiced that Putin is bad, your comments are an enigma.
  16. A self-declared centralist cannot understand the bullshit with how the judicial system is applied differently based on partisan politics? If you are blind to the difference in behaviors, you are as left as they come.
  17. The USA doesn't treat countries the way it wants to be treated. Fact. Some derogatory labels/opinions hurt because there is an element of truth to it. Like certain cities in California, some developing countries are indeed shitholes. I've been to shithole countries multiple times and never want to go again. I'm talking about places where you shit in the river you shower and drink from. Where a girl getting raped on public transportation is her fault because how dare she be outside past 6 PM with her boyfriend to travel home. Where mothers rent out their babies to beggars. Where the sewage and trash are not maintained and you hold your breath as long as possible. Where your driver gets pulled over because they have an American in the car, and the driver must bribe the cop for onward travel. The citizens are kind, capable, smart... but the country is currently a shithole that the citizens want to leave. Personally, I'm more concerned about the actions of the United States in terms of its military, economic, and political influence over other nations than I am about the use of insensitive descriptions for countries.
  18. Why did you point out that Putin praised Musk? Soooo... will you clarify your intention behind this? Your response appears to stem from my repetition that X is better, along with a quote from Musk regarding his intentions. MSPART mentioned feeling positively about X if Musk's statements are true. In response, you brought up Putin's praise of Musk (specifically, Starlink). Later, you state there is no need to defend a wealthy individual like Musk and comment on the weirdness of idolizing him. These remarks are unusual and suggest that your initial comments were meant to undermine Musk. The topic here is X being better than Twitter. Yet, you've brought up unrelated stuff, like the discussion about Starlink, creating an enigmatic connection to Musk (for X). You assert that this was not an 'attack,' but rather a 'fact.' Will you be more clear in your communication and avoid ambiguity to convey your points?
  19. Which reported facts about the USA can be proven false? There is something to be learned there; it isn't bullshit. At the same time, yes this is written by China... and the obvious lie is that "China opposes all forms of hegemonism and power politics, and rejects interference in other countries' internal affairs." I love the USA but try not to only eat the shit the USA news feeds us.
  20. You can impeach for high crimes and misdemeanors; in other words, for any political judgment by Congress. It is not a criminal trial. Nothing to see here.
  21. I am a USA homer while also aware that our country commits war crimes and silently supports others who do as well. The government's actions in the USA mostly do not accurately reflect what the citizens want and how they behave. From the Iran forums, I get the feeling this is true in other countries. To be the best, you have to beat the best. Just as the USA wrestlers can compete, let the Russians compete, and let us hope that the hard work Dake and Snyder put in will get it done!
  22. African Championship Bracket: https://cdn.uww.org/s3fs-public/2022-05/2022_african_championships_fianl_book.pdf?VersionId=PYd6pUvzQuShQSFaC65kY4NpHER5J7cS Two Wins And he wrestled at worlds in 2022 at 70KG. Worlds Results @ https://uww.org/event/world-championships-61/results
  23. Cape Verdean Museum 2022 Anthony and August Wesley recently stopped by to visit our museum. They shared with us many highlights in their most recent international events and upcoming competitions while representing the Cabo Verde Wrestling Federation. Anthony competes at 70kg in the freestyle division, and has qualified for the world championships which will be held in Belgrade Serbia Sept 10th - 18th. August will accompany him as coach and team leader. He enters this event with a string of successful results including a 5th place finish in the Ibrahim Moustafa International tournament held in Sharm El-Sheikh Egypt. Followed by an exciting performance at the African Continental championships held in El-Jadia Morocco May 2022. He advanced to the semi-finals after securing victories over Congo by pin, and Angola by decision 10-0. Based on his recent results, Anthony earned a world ranking of number 47. “I am excited and proud to represent Cabo Verde as an athlete” Anthony said, with the 2024 Paris Olympics around the corner every event is very important which gives me the opportunity to grow on the world stage. My true hope is that this serves as a motivation for the future athletes to get involved and support our nation. https://www.facebook.com/capeverdeanmuseum/posts/anthony-and-august-wesley-recently-stopped-by-to-visit-our-museum-they-shared-wi/2945973782369743/?paipv=0&eav=AfY6p4F1x3xe6srQRZyXIw41w5PKZtkgVYUWGZEwBFFJJDpjFH570oMfSSvXgcGS9zs&_rdr
