When I was in my late teens I was visiting family about 1000 miles away. My aunt insisted we go to christmas service at her mega church. Apparently the place was like a massive stadium-esque concert and performance hall with like a recreational and shopping area. My parents paid me to just go along and not alienate our family. So, as we are going up the stairs to the entrance of the chapel, I see, in the lobby, they had a line of ATMs from different banks, they had a kiosk for foreign currency, and a cash register set-up, for tithing. I looked at my dad and said "they invited the money changers into the temple". My aunt asked what I meant by that, and I recounted a reduction of the Jesus flipping tables stories. Then I pointed to the ATMs, kiosk, and register, and said "money changers, they literally have money changers in the temple".
I was then admonished and told it was only an hour, I can keep my thoughts to myself.
While you will find pickpockets in major tourist spots in the US, they are not nearly as common as elsewhere. Here we just prefer the good ol' stick-up.
A lot of the companies that produce them are from NYC though. Also Pizza was popularized, in the US, from immigrants in NYC, and while america having a single cultural center isn't really thing, if you had to pick one A LOT of people would choose it.
The state of Germany was put down twice, completely dismantled, and ceded. There are still a lot of Germans around. Do you not differentiate between a state and the people residing in it?
Well, we know they did at least one major act of elections fraud, but Pence wouldn't do their bidding and use the fraudulent electoral slates from 7 or so states. Which got him black balled by the GOP. So, who knows what else is happening.
No, it doesn't. Nazis are people choosing to believe in a genocidal ideology, people that believe their way want me dead, like it is part of their ideology that I should die. My sentiment that people who believe I should not be alive, are not tolerable, is not the same as someone hating the japanese people of today, because of trauma from WW2. .
As far as I have been able to find, the material published on there being a higher per capita amount of preds in the LGBTQ community have been discredited, and most of these claims come from a small number of papers, largely published years ago, by conservative groups pay
Criticism of American imperialism is an international sport at this point, where did they get this idea that the US isn't criticized for this stuff? Have they only watch OAN? Probably a 'bot'
That immigrants are literally an invasive military force that is destroying the US
