Norwegians government is rich not the citizens oooh.
Norwegians are rich anyday anytime. It is mostly Ruskies, Phillipinos and such that do the fishing and man the shipping and oil vessels in their waters. You can't pay a Norwegian man enough to do that.

It's like Mexicans being nannies for American families. America can sanction many things from Mexico but not cheap nannies.

Why did they exempt fishing? cheesy

Dem go broke if they try am

That's like Nigeria stopping the oil industry
If you read carefully, you will see they allow Russian boats to land fish caught in Norwegian waters in Norway.

The poor Russians do the fishing for them under licence in their waters. This is a Master Servant relationship. Norwegians are too rich to be casting nets in that cold and choppy sea.

Why Norway don’t add fish sectors to it? Or Because Fishing sector is massive for Norway?
Norwegians are too rich to enter boat and start casting nets.

Let the poor Ruskies do it.

All what you posted is the perspective of a follower of American politics from outside. From London, Lagos, Canada your only concern about politics is who is in white house, but for people inside dealing with everyday life, the person in DC is the least in their mind.
All politics is local. Its the local policies of both parties that matter to people living day to day here

When you have one party claiming they want to defund police, decriminalize crime, Against the concept of paying for good bought(you can steal goods of certain prices without prosecution), They want to teach kids under 9yrs about sexuality without parental consent, they want to increase taxes as much as possible and punish success.

These are things that reverberate with local people more than the man in DC or what Biden is doing. Maybe Biden does not support some of these but they are policies being drummed up in blue dominated areas of the country. That is why many people are fleeing Democrat area to Republican ones because who the man in DC is does not make a difference when police down their tools and crime spikes in your neighborhood

What are the core Democrat beliefs and what are the core Republican beliefs? Republicans still believe in lower taxes, Law enforcement, free market economy and the concept of family

Democrats are not only for higher taxes but actually for socialism, before being a socialist used to be treasonable, now its mainstream, a few of the Democratic presidential candidates are self acclaimed Socialists. Almost everything Obama campaigned on in 2008 would make him a center right candidate today

That is why DC Democrats are railing at people like Manchin while his approval ratings in his WV is through the roof.
That's just what your side amplify to you everyday.

It's a well known tactic. Extremists love to point at other extremists and make them the opposition rather than the centrists.

Out of hundreds of Reps and Senators, only the 5 in the squad fit the criteria above. But when you feast on daily diet of culture wars, you think the whole democratic party is as such. Even a minor local councillor in Democratic party with radical ideas gets front-page coverage in your GOP news cycle. In UK, we have minor local councillors on the fringe, types that will support Iran Palestine, Cuba etc and they are ignored. Such is healthy for cohesion in society.

Politics has always had a decorum before Bannons playbook was enacted by the GOP. Each party has a small fringe of extreme elements but you would hardly see the GOP, McCain, Bush or Romney hammering on about the civil rights extremists on the other side, neither will you see Clinton or Obama or the Dems hammering on the borderline Nazis in the other party.

Even in UK today, we have a couple of extremists in Labour Party and you don't see the Conservatives giving them any airplay. That's how responsible politics should be practiced.

I can never forget my guy Bernie Grant, MP for Tottenham, a staunch Pan African who always calls for reparations and wears Agbada to House of Commons. If the Conservative party had focussed on him and amplified him, it would tear Britain apart. That's what modern day GOP playbook is. I don't believe this bullshit, you are only saying what your GOP forcefeed you everyday which is a dishonourable way to conduct political discourse.

Do you see your problem? Haven't you been following the debacle of libsoftiktok?

This is nothing about trump or Bannon, it is about liberals showing their true color.

Elon musk is 100% correct. You know they now say he is a racist, he wants apartheid in the US, a pedophile, WS, etc. That's all coming from the left which is pushing him center-right.

JK Rowlings is in the same boat. The left cannot reason with anyone who tries to say men are men and women are women these days. His depiction is correct.
Who are libsoftiktok. I don't know any lib of tiktok on ballot for the Democratic party.

@Ibime
I read of Kavas mainnet launch on may 10
But looking at the chart it seems to be at the top of daily chart and resistance

Do you think it's reasonable to buy and will likely perform like $DAR mainnet??
What's your take on buying this rumour to sell news
At this point, it's too far to May 10th to speculate on mainnet pump. You will certainly get a small pump (in relation to BTC) but between now and then other Macro factors might take the price down eg we go down 30%, then Kava gets a 20% pump later. At this time one has to be cautious in this market. One can buy but capital allocation should be small.

Make una calm down. Tuchel is the only one holding this club together, or can hold this club together now Roman is gone. Players are even downing tools, suffering bellyaches like Chris and pulling out of challenges like Rudiger Vs Benz so as not to mess up their next move.

Ibime this tweet by Musk depicts the sentiments among many people on the American political spectrum

Many people who gladly voted Obama in 2008 cannot identify what the left has become anymore
All this shows is the deliberate strategy by Trump and Bannon of hanging every leftist crackpot idea or incident on the Democrats has gotten through to Americans.

It's a shame the so called right hasn't moved right in the picture.

The GOP of today is the Tea party of 2012, so tell me how the left is the only one moving.

This is the feeling of someone who was always right wing

And what's stupid about it is the options to vote for in the Dems are not the far left, but the same centrists as 2012, while the options to vote for in the GOP are full blown Tea Party that would make Sarah Palin look mild. So tell me who has moved more? You couldn't find a Trump in GOP ballot in 2012. You find a Biden in 2012 and also 2020. You guys are triggered by culture wars instigated by your own party, the fringe elements of the left are amplified by your own party, not by Pelosi and co. The choice for Dems are same as they were in 2008 and 2012, so tell me who changed. Too much watching of culture war narratives brainwash you guys into believing the Dems have gone extreme left. Conservative playbook right now is pick any anarchist action and blame it on the Dems.

Elon is either salty because a tranny (Chelsea Manning) is fücking his ex-wife and raising his kids, or he's making an aggressive business move to drive Truth Social out of the market which is one of the business threats to Twitter

Ibime.I think this is a good topic for you to discuss because politically you are irrational and lost for good.
Swimming.

Men generally have longer feet than women. A man who wakes up one day and discovers he is trapped in a woman's body will most likely wear longer shoes than a woman. Do the length of someone's feet determine how fast he can swim? (Minus upper body strength) A trans who is allowed to swim against real women is required to have some testosterone levels below a certain margin.What about the length of his feet?
Does the trans with low testosterone levels have an advantage over his female competition? Do you think that your feet length aids swimming over women?

Think.
I'm glad you stated this as non-political matter so why do your favourite politicians make this a central campaign? In my country, this is a matter for sports commentators, not politicians. I don't support trans in sports, but this is not an important political matter.

BS.

President of Ukraine said he needs 7billion a month for their economy. I believe the 5 billion for the economy is what? Weapons? Or intel?

Make we hear word Ibime.
You have come again!

Go and ask USA why they sent food and oil to Britain during WWII in addition to weapons, or why Russia went back to Donbass when their supplies ran out

War is fought on stomach.

I hope you understand the difference between economy and economic. Economic aid is anything non-military ie food, communications and supplies. Nobody is growing Ukraine's economy that Russia will just bomb to smithereens. This is a war package.

Dude, I literally said they should send them weapons instead of cash... They are sending cash... And I said they don't have an economy at the moment. They are sending cash for that and other things.

Give them weapons... If it cost 20billion, give them... But don't give them cash. I don't know what you are arguing for.
Stop making noise. Who said anything about cash?

You just put on your political hat without having at least a background on how aid works.

And by the way most aid is in the form of loans, given in kind, not cash

You can read about the aid USA gave Britain in WW2 to have an idea

At the same time that his Democrat majority leader is telling people that they have to raise their taxes to cover inflation.

Wrong, it's actually the other way round.
Ballon D'or was the Nobel of football and FIFA attached the Ballon D'OR name to their award to give it prestige. Fifa forced french football to accept a combined award. The FIFA officials felt none took their award seriously. Ronaldinho for example was in tears when he won Ballon D'or despite that he had won FIFA award the previous year (but lost on Ballon D'or to Shevchenko).
Not at all bro. We don't pay attention to Balon d'Or then. You leave that to scrubs like Owen, Nedved and Shevchenko while Ronaldo, Zidane, Ronaldinho win the WPOTY. Speaking from first hand experience not dem say dem say. Balon d'Or is the one we did not take seriously. I guess maybe FIFA did not want two awards and acquiesced to merging with the junior award as big brother, or maybe they liked the name, or their voting mechanism was more democratic than FIFAs, I'm just speculating. All I know is it happened at the wrongest time (social media age) and the whole world now associates Balon d'Or as the legitimate award. That was certainly not the case before the merger. FIFA WPOTY was the big dog before the merger. Even World Soccer Magazine WPOTY was almost trying to compete with Balon d'Or in the late 90s before they died out TBH.
