Re: US Election 2020
I don't know about you, but I've gone from finding American idiots branding right-leaning centrist liberal politics as RADICAL-FAR-LEFT-EXTREMISM! ludicrous and ignorable, to just plain annoying - and particularly the dubious chant that Europe is some hotbed of SOCIALISM! My unlimited broadband cost me $23 USD a month and my mobile phone (with more call minutes and data than I ever use) $14 pm not because of SOCIALISM! but because of regulated free market competition. You should try it sometime.

48% of the US population thinks Biden is Stalin. A nation cannot survive this much stupidity.

Corporate America and its media arm have worked long and hard to make the "reds under the bed" reflex a fixture in your cultural landscape...

Re: US Election 2020
Quite amazing actually that the Repugs are the red party. The phrase "Reds under the beds" must cause real mental confusion for Repugs supporters.

Was rerun. The Republican election fraud scheme occurred in 2018.
Reply: Yes, an honest to god example of election fraud (not voter fraud) that left behind clear pieces of evidence and ended with criminal indictments for the fraudsters involved. A great example, thanks.
That election was originally tilted by a few hundred illegal votes, which left behind detectable evidence of a crime that was readily discovered by those overseeing the process.

That's why they have to eat snails instead of a thick, juicy, American steak.
Yeah well that's just, like, your opinion, man.

Snails are delicious. You don't eat them because they are too fast for you to catch.

In Africa we have snail catchers. Those puny Eurosnails aren't worth the effort.

I've had snail stew in Nigeria. Bit rubbery, but not terrible.
