I actually support the extremism of someone's daughter because it highlights the alt rightist attitudes on TT that have somehow become normalised.
Lots of posters on TT that i used to associate with middle of the road social democrats have morphed into xenophobic, racist individuals that i no longer recognise.
Despite posts from the likes of Goodbob who has disappeared it seems, these people seem to believe they retain a moral high ground that has nothing to do with the normal interaction of just being human.
It is this ethos of being better and that all the shit things that occur are the fault of those lesser. There is no recognition that you can come here as a refugee but have no right to work or integrate. The dream of coming to a land where you can live the dream of democracy does not exist unless you happen to be sponsored by one of the big German firms. Lots of black, Chinese, Arabs and Turks are fortunate enough to have this opportunity becausr they are cheap to hire but huge amounts of people coming to Europe don't have that advantage.
Funnily enough, we will support the right of those sponsored people, who often come from privileged backgrounds, but we look at the smarter and more qualified as worthless refugees. LOL
The hypocrisy is astounding...

The real issue worldwide are the discontents; whether that is someone from the UK threatened by eastern Europeans, Americans threatened by globalisation, or Germans threatened by immigration; it is the fear of those that feel marginalised but in reality are better off than most.
The right, those with nationalistic and fascist ideologies, are taking advantage of these fears to propagate their own twisted agenda.
They want to make you feel separate, they want you to blame your woes on others, not yourself. Religion, race, ethnicity are really easy targets and you will accept these arguments if you feel you are being shafted.
People, these are the politics of hate. The people that control and lead are the only ones that will benefit from them. This isn't fake news, this is the truth, and unless ordinary people wake up to it we are totally fucked.

I can only presume that all the Islamic terrorists have Holzkirchen as a key target site. Terrible that they would target such a place!!

Quite simply the US pays more into NATO because it retains their sphere of influence.
The Donald obviously doesn't understand this. Let him withdraw his support for NATO based on lack of investment from Europeans and let's see how Russia reacts. LOL

@Conq knocking pr when trump actually lost the popular vote by over 3 million sounds really smart. Any ways i thought you were either Spanish or black so how you can be so pro trumpeter is a big surprise to me.

You can spin it as you like erdmann but there was no public handshake at the oval office although honestly why Angela would want to shake hands with this authoritarian oligarch is way way beyond me...

And the Donald is stupid. He tells Ireland how much he loves them; we can send him lots of cheese, sausages and bacon but he refuses to publicly shake the hand of the world's biggest exporter and with an importing population 20 times that of Ireland.
No long term jobs for those that voted for him.

No but refusing a handshake with Merkel in the public arena shows how stupid the Donald is...

In terms of the handshake it is somewhat understandable. Angela insists on speaking German even though she can apparently speak good English. Do all the major German exporters insist on speaking German?
Donald probably heard handshake as hamshake and obviously he didn't want one of those from Angela ?

Trump did shake hands with Merkel but perhaps he was pissed off that she couldn't speak English.
At least she is not like bakery and supermarket workers that continue to answer me in pigeon English to my pigeon Deutsch.

Muirfield never banned women from the location. Women were banned on their gender as members just like men are from women only events on TT

Being Muslim must be difficult just like being Catholic.
I have visited many Muslim countries and the addition to Islamic teaching is virtually ten per cent if that. all the men smoke and drink and often eat pork, women are openly unveiled and participate in activities that are supposedly non Islamic.
They come to Europe and suddenly their behaviours are all inversed. They become real practitioners of a religion that they did not follow in their own land.
Conversely go to any petrol station in Munich after dark, all the guys standing around, drinking beer and driving supped up cars are Muslim.
Look at the Innenstadt in Munich, all owned by Saudis, and various other Muslims... there is no way these shops could ever make enough money to pay the rents but they've been there for over 15 years. All the spiele halls with no customers? WTF is going on?

The leader of PVDD is really hot but I'm sure that has nothing to do with the votes.
In the UK recently a rather hunky police officer was voted as man of the year on Facebook.
Most people, outside of TT off course, vote on issues and not how the candidate looks...?

So muirfield after being removed from the Open schedule for not accepting women members have reversed their decision and now been reinstated in the open schedule.

I just wonder how this sexism equates with all the women only events on TT. Serious question???

Hmm i am not sure if i agree with ,zeino here. Most of my Turkish friends tell me it is a vote between yes and terrorism...If you vote no you are a defacto terrorist.
Anyways that's me for tonight as i write one word and then loose connection to TT although i have several other sites open and working without these issues.
Sleep well everyone

This topic should be merged but EI who seems to be being attacked from all sides makes very valid points.
Rather than standing up to Erdogan they mollycoddled him. He is a very astute politician who uses the missteps of others to his own advantage in his homeland. He is a very dangerous man.

Jeremy are you looking to send your children back into the woman that you own?
You haven't posted drunk in eight years?
Pull the other one mate?

The TT website for whatever reason seems to have numerous quirks. It runs slow, it runs ok and if you use a real email address associated with your account you will be subjected to every form of internet scams. It is totally insecure.
Rather than recognise this reality a majority of TT users will see these "attacks" as a preemptive strike on their freedom of speech.

I will not bother quoting as it does not seem to work on mobile but to say that people do not equate Nazis with events between 33 and 45 but rather neonazis is deranged and laughable.

Comments that this thread has already been closed. Lol
Are we living in a fake news vacuum folks? I hope some scientific body is monitoring the hysteria here. God help us.

Definitely not true for Ireland. And you won't get a family life without sexdrive, so family life doesn't equate.
Just a stupid question on the side why does every reply I make contain the text and quotes of my previous replies. Tedious stuff.

Back to topic.
I am surrounded by kindergarten yet after daylight the whole neighbourhood is quiet and deserted. Am i living in a land of reverse vampires?

Most of the cleanup is automatic. There is actually not a person doing it. One of the original programmers Malcolm Sudbury said as much in one of his last posts.

RIP FuzzyTony - Former Toytown member has passed away
in Metachat
Posted
Unbelievably sad to hear of Tony's passing, his knowledge of film was better than any online portal, his humanity was sublime and never changing; maybe that's why he left TT?
I hope you're in Xanadu Fuzzy Tony.
