I have no idea how I'll ever explain the American troubles to my kid when she's older. Especially since we are from here. I get the sense that this is on every parent's mind, mainly because nobody talks about it. At all.

"We let the extraordinarily wealthy off from paying their part to society based on a social contract that they broke. By the time we realized that they had no intention of paying back their share that they stole from society, it was too late and their greed consumed us all." Idk something like that.

More like we said “tax the rich” which pissed the rich off so they took over the country. Then they got more money from the poor.

Except we used to tax the ever living shit out of the rich. It’s not even a new idea. It’s a reversion to some of the most prosperous thinking in US history.

"People cared more about hurting others than protecting democracy, so they fell for a cult of personality where their own truth was more important than reality and reinforced by multi billion dollar media campaigns. It was modern fascism and all the signs were there, but that didn't matter to the people angry that a black man got to be president."

First term Trump is more like Joffrey imo. He had some competent advisors who mostly kept him from going off the rails. This time around, he's like a white walker who'd have been real good friends with Ramsay Bolton

> Cybersecurity firms, including Check Point Research, track Handala under the name Void Manticore, which Check Point describes as 'one of the most active groups pursuing strategic objectives through cyber operations' on behalf of the Iranian regime. The group is also tracked under the names Banished Kitten, Storm-0842, and Red Sandstorm. Better look out for da Red: Sandstorm

They will probably pay but you will then also have to basically become an Iranian and under Iranian authority. Which is probably not a bad deal cuz they definitely will praise you and treat you like a celebrity. as long as you dont die from war and stuff. You don't just go collect the bounty and go on about your day obviously. But yes I believe you will be paid and held in high regard. But also become a target yourself.

[Urban Dictionary: spiderman ](http://spiderman.urbanup.com/17251245) While f****** a girl from behind, quickly pull out and ejaculate in your hand. After ejaculating continue to f*** her from behind. While rockin it, start saying "peter parker, peter parker." In a state of confusion, your parter will look back and say "What?" At this point, release your fluid at her face while yelling, "SPIDERMAN!"
