meeting of USA and DPRK Leaders canceled by USA
| I expected that Trump would pussy out.

not to forget while crying that he still has the bigger button...
I mean Kim Jong Un is ridicolous too, but at least he is not elected by a majority of his people. Trump is the absolute prove that fucking a lot people in the USA are dumb like shit.
| The leading idiot of a country of sheeple idiots who excel in getting fat at Wallmart.
Boooo... Beeeee....
The lunatic is in the hall, the lunatics are in my hall,
The paper holds their folded faces to the floor,
And everyday the paperboy brings more.

Sounds like you're European and have no idea what is actually going on.
People need to work 25 hours a day to survive. Not enough time to educate themselves on politics
| It's all one big game of chicken
| >>295411
I mean, that's exactly why smallfolk were denied franchise in the olden days. & why the framers never intended the people to actually vote for the president, or senators for that matter. The Constitution is designed with several bulwarks against hopeless foolishness of the masses, buty we've tramped them down over the years in the name of 'progress.'

Just so you know if that was still true China would be holding our elections because of their housing companies.
So...
Maybe working to solve the problem rather than say something meaningless? Like making election nights national holidays? Having politicians actually care about their constituents?
| >>295469
I'm trying to avert a reply dripping with sarcasm here. Politicians caring aside, I'd be all for rigorous campaign reform, including making election days national holidays, but it doesn't solve the problem that folks choose radically contentious candidates & then vote for someone just because they're vehemently opposed the other guy. I believe it's a largely cultural problem.
| Still waiting on a war so that I either die or get to see technology advance infinitely faster. Hopefully both
| >>295496
On second thought, if someone's resolute to die they should put their death to good use & try to off the idiotic leaders who started such a bloody & avoidable war in the first place.
| >>295515 Temporary solution. Another will take their place. Whether it be another tyrant or the masses themselves.
| >>295534
Certainly true. An assassination amidst a serious war is, however, an excellent opportunity to attampt more systemic change.
| Allah ackber

Please invite me to this magical land where the 40-hour work week doesn't exist. I get what you're saying, but it's honestly worse than that.

Trump won by a representative majority, not the popular majority vote. The American electoral system has no safeguards against self-aggrandizing protest leaders.
| trump is an idiot
| >>295286 actually, more people voted for clinton in the election. the electoral college is what got trump in office
| Yeah there are other problems but that is the keystone issue
| >>295450 or here's a thought how about allowing the workers and the small folk to work less and with the new free time they have they'll be able to learn more about the world.
Actually, no you're right dumb
fucking peasants can't be educated at all, bring in the serfdom./s (as if that was obvious)
| Tech and advancements have never been for easing the workload of those who work. They have been always for increasing the amount of work done for every time unit, thus increasing profit for the owners while keeping the same cost for the workers as their wages do not change and they still work the same hours.
Murrica is no commie land g/u/rl. They work, yanks got no time fir friggin useless school.

| Well, in reaction to the reaction of the DPRK to the "usual" military maneuvers of the US in the RoK and a statement by US vice-president Mike Pence*, Donald the Trump reacts with canceling the planned meeting.
*The statment said, that the DPRK will end like the "libyan-model". Reminder: Libya signed a contract to not produce, purchase or use mass destruction weapons. 15 years later the libyan dictator got lynched by western supported and partly islamist rebels.
