I gotta put in a shameless plug for my favorite anime, "Girls und Panzer". If you're a WW2 buff and a tank nerd, you may have heard of this. If not, it's just good, clean, silly fun, and pretty wholesome for an anime. Give it a try. https://t.co/0fBxnZ4wDK
That's why I watch "Girls und Panzer".
There's a tiny handful of unhinged lefty fans of that series; but, again, they are a TINY handful. FAR less than most other anime.
Usually the leftoids denounce it as a "NaZi AnImE" without ever having watched a minute of it.
It almost gatekeeps itself due to the subject matter (WW2-and-prior-era tanks engaging in battles as an actual, competitive sport between girls' schools) and the amount of historical references abounding within the show, which tend to be too much for the average leftoid brain to grasp.
I have NEVER in my life, EVER, had a problem with Italians. The Italian people I've known have been some of the nicest people with the most solid integrity I've ever had the good fortune to have known. And this post is one of the reasons why I respect them so much. They don't do idle chit-chat. They say what they mean and mean what they say, and you can stand by it. 🫡❤️🇮🇹
Particularly association football. Other sports fans, especially of traditionally American sports like American football and baseball, don't seem to have the degree of extreme, rabid toxicity that soccer fans do. To be sure, it's definitely there--I'm not saying it isn't, and there are any number of notorious cases of it in the U.S. all over the media. But it is still not nearly to the degree I see in the UK, Ireland, and a myriad of other countries. Maybe it's because most Americans realize there's so much more beyond all that. We tend not to make a god out of our sports; at least to a far lesser degree than most other countries' fans I see.
This is one of the biggest reasons I HATE soccer.
Even American football fans aren't as savage to the degree association football fans are. It always seemed to me to be a commie's game for commies due to the VAST majority of their fans being unhinged, unsaved, unwashed lunatics.
If I may, I'd just like to add this comment and link to what I said before about using A.I as a creation tool (which I still defend, by the way). This video is a perfect example of the dark, abusive side of A.I. where it is literally used to re-write history and push false narratives, and I think this is what most people are afraid of. Unfortunately there is no immediate way to counteract this without actually trying to educate people about the truth. Legislation is not the answer.

A.I. is nothing but a tool, and is only good or evil depending on how it is used and what it is used for. The bad comes from so much of the slop I see on, for example, YouTube, concerning fake documentaries and false information on history, or merely from sloppy use of it by people not putting in enough effort to fine-tune their creations and letting the A.I. do all the work. A.I. is awesome for those who want to create something but either have little to no drawing skills, or those of us who have never had the chance to have those skills honed in so-called "art class" due to public school's failings. But it still can't do good work without a human creator guiding it, and that's the key.
@PANZER_BLOCKS Those schoolgirls in that photo are wearing the wrong uniforms for riding in that tank... 😏😉
(P.S. I don't know who made this fanart of Ankou Team in Bonple uniforms, but I sure do like it!)
@Red_Texas_22@ChristianHeiens Apparently, even most Belgians think that "Belgium" should be dissolved and divided back up between France, the Netherlands and Germany. Almost everyone there wants to be back among their own people.
What many people don't realize is that the American right to keep and bear arms is actually based on British common law. Somehow the British elites decided to do away with it. We never did and have no intention of doing so, because we realize that the greatest enemy of a free people are those in its government plotting to subjugate them.
No. America uses miles because that's how our roads and land divisions are set up. Take a look at an American plat book sometime, especially one from a Midwestern state. The VAST majority of roads are laid out one mile apart. Most townships are divided up into 36 square-mile segments of a county, six miles by six miles square. Some townships do follow natural borders like rivers, but in most cases even the subsections are divided up into square miles. It would be a disaster to try to force kilometers onto a population which has used miles to lay out their entire county. Even most rural Canadians still use miles to reckon distances, in spite of the forced Europization imposed on them by their elites decades ago.
You're confusing the Torah with the Talmuds. The Torah is basically the same as the first five books of the Old Testament, except in (the original) Hebrew. The Talmuds were written much later, between 400 A.D. and 500 A.D. as a sort of series of philosophical treatises mixed with some mysticism, and contain a lot of the detestable things to which you refer, especially against our Saviour, Jesus Christ. Please look up the difference.
Exactly. That's what he SHOULD have said in the first place... unless he did actually mean all of Lebanon. Which I take massive issue with, since Lebanon used to be around 70% Christian before the Islamic takeover (it's down to around 30% or less last I heard). I'm in favor of eliminating Hezbollah and leaving the Christians there alone as much as possible (which will be difficult due to the Islamists embedding themselves among the population, but not impossible).
Wait 'til we take them to a gun range... to shoot WW2-era weapons FROM THEIR OWN COUNTRIES which "followed" some of our G.I. grandparents home in their duffel bags. 😆 Guns which they're not even allowed to possess in their own countries and which they can only otherwise see in a museum or a book. 😢
