Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Just took that. Guess if it is from Australia or Scandinavia?
"Get rekt."
Yeah, that invalidates your shit government, 🤣
Get rekt
Twice. Kek. Hey, insult all you want. I have a no-blocking policy. Mama raised me with a spine.
Got a bit ashamed by me pointing out your mistake?
You also can't see a road. There is some paving, but none that's broken. That's two puddles and a patch of snow. So yeah, this isn't Australia. It's summer in Australia, and it's not exactly known for snow in the winter either.
You proposed a deal. I'm Nordic. Do I have the right to act as if we're better than the US, as you promised?
I haven't attempted to insult you. I apologise for you thinking I did. Idk what you perceived as one?
We're so off base at this point, I'm not even sure why you're arguing with me. Boredom?
Since we're really out of material, I'm out. You do you. Maybe we'll make fun of eachother in another thread down the road,... a better road.
One "I pointed out your mistake" later and you're running with your tail tucked.
Get rekt.
So, to reiterate, like you promised, I'm allowed to act like my country is better than America?

You said something that was incorrect.
You might not want to take the L, but it doesn't matter whether you accept it or not. You've still lost.
Buddy, there was never a game board, and the other guy made his piece out of poop, then you popped in, I mistook you for him (because you all look the same, not racist). We'll have a real argument someday, with cursing and lots of mistakes if you stick around, trust me.
"Get rekt" implies you think there's a game. I don't consider conversations competitions, but I know a lot of young people come to forums for that sort of thing. Now, if there was a game board, I won, seeing as how you're saying that Nordics can say they're better than the USA. And I'm Nordic. So... it is your opinion that I should be allowed to hold myself as better than the USA, right?
It's my opinion, as an American that almost anywhere can hold themselves up higher than the USA, The Australian had the gall to consider his island of hate doesn't have all the same potential, and with China near, I'd say more.
Then, we're splitting successes, comfort, or morality. Is any country morally just, entirely?
Has Greenland ever beefed with anybody?
So that's a "yes, you can consider yourself better than the country I live in"?
Bud this is sad, come on.
