Limp Bizkit?
Powerful speech from Trump. Been a long time since the West had a leader like this.
What kind of leader?

First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win.
It's a fucked up world
A fucked up place
Everybody's judged by their fucked up face
Fucked up dreams
Fucked up life
A fucked up kid
With a fucked up knife
Fucked up moms
And fucked up dads
It's a fucked up a cop
With a fucked up badge
Fucked up job
With fucked up pay
And a fucked up boss
Is a fucked up pain
Fucked up press
And fucked up lies
Well, Lethal's in the back
With the fact of the fires
Hey, it's on
Everybody knows it's on
Hey, it's on
Everybody knows it's on
Ain't it a shame that you can't say "Fuck"
Fuck's just a word
And it's all fucked up
Like a fucked up punk
With a fucked up mouth
A nine inch nail
I'll get knocked the fuck out
Fucked up aids
From fucked up sex
Fake ass titties
On a fucked up chest
We're all fucked up
So whatcha wanna do?
We fucked up me
And fucked up you
You wanna fuck me like an animal
You'd like to burn me on the inside
You like to think that I'm a perfect drug
Just know that nothing you do
Will bring you closer to me
Ain't life a bitch?
A fucked up bitch
A fucked up sore with a fucked up stitch
A fucked up head
Is a fucked up shame
Swinging on my nuts
Is a fucked up game
Jealousy filling up a fucked up mind
It's real fucked up
Like a fucked up crime
If I say "Fuck", two more times
That's forty six "Fucks" in this fucked up rhyme
It's on
Everybody knows it's on
Hey, it's on
Everybody knows it's on
You wanna fuck me like an animal
You'd like to burn me on the inside
You like to think that I'm a perfect drug
Just know that nothing you do
Will bring you closer to me

Arrival - loved it. Wasn't too keen on the whole global politics portrayal but enjoyed the rest of it especially as an essay on language. Went into it a little wary due to Amy Adams & Jeremy Renner both of whom I've never much cared for but came away converted, she was brilliant.
Hacksaw Ridge - loved it. A great war film, funny as fuck & crazy awesome action. Mel Gibson is one of my favourite directors.

Disagree. The Tory scum can't wait to dismantle the NHS. Jeremy cunt is doing his best to hollow it out & leave it's bones to be picked over by the private sector, yanks or mates of Tory backers. The right wing press are in cahoots shaming it every chance they get with the typical gusto they reserve for bullish scare tactics.
The public, in general, do seem to be on the side of the NHS but the divide and conquer assault is well underway in this regard too. Daily Mail brigade will be turning the tide.

The standard of evidence you guys rely on and flirtation with conspiracy makes me wonder if you guys all went off your meds at once.
Think of it as gnrevo as the cast of one flew over the cuckoos nest & cast yourself as the chief.
I'm sure it must worry you tho, & maybe perplex you, how welcoming your fellow citizens are to Russia becoming the power broker in the Middle East..?? Not just politically, from a democratic standpoint, tho that alone is diametrically preposterous & outrageous, or maybe just a sign of the times..
I mean for all the bullshit you guys have gone thru this past election year, to dress up Russia (& Syria) as a means of defeating Isis while surrendering initiative, if not some kind of control/dominance in the region, without an obvious plan to fall back upon, save for Tillerson/Trumps interests, seems, like I say, perplexing to say the least. Unless there is something I'm missing? Is there a bill to focus on alternative energy?
Is Exxon in effect nationalised? Where are you guys gonna get your oil from? How can you guys justify this cosy relationship with putin? - try it without blaming Obama btw. There's no denying his foreign policy, but discounting that surely Trump, & crucially Tillerson (who did his dealings under Obama anyway), would've still followed this path..?? It's just such a strange place for the world to find itself. I mean, amongst all the characteristics of Trump you can mostly find echoes throughout history EXCEPT for his seeming subservience to Russia. How do you explain that?

I thought this was a really good article.
I thought that was a really good article too. Rather than a hatchet job, the journalist lets him hang with his own words. She's a good writer.
#268 Re: The Garden » US Politics Thread » 452 weeks ago
Two phrases spring to mind: don't bullshit a bullshitter + the old internet adage, pics or it didn't happen.
& why would the yanks give two shits about British intelligence agencies? Sure they like James Bond but why would they trust them on matters of national self interest? It's entirely possible MI5 have been duped by misinformation.
Putin's on a hot streak. MI5 look weak, American intelligence is being shunned by the soon to be commander in chief. Germany & France are in his sights.
Even if the dossier is bullshit, which it seemingly is, the questions over his links to Russia will not go away. What's utterly bizarre is the impact it's having on the American public. It's like we've woken up in bizarro world. I mean, IF he has been compromised by Russia it's an act of treachery, no? But sure, his supporters have defended his belligerent bullish conduct and lies so far, I guess they're in it for the long haul.
Of course, if he hasn't been compromised then where does that leave you? Certainly Trump is in a more powerful position vs his intelligence services & could quite reasonably gut and rebuild them. It's pretty clear the American public are losing faith, or have lost faith in those agencies.
As an outsider I'd be more concerned with the similar sort of conflict he is having with the press. He could theoretically redesign the freedom of the press in the US. He's already bullying them & corralling them, I thought the manner in which they took their scolding at the recent press conference was worrying: why did no one in the room accuse him of being rude? Is it out of respect for the office he holds, or out of fear of him? Either way, those notions are unhelpful to them in this age where he shows them no respect & is rewriting what's acceptable behaviour.
