The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

According to the euro press, everyone to the right of Bernie Sanders- even slightly- is a Nazi.

Meanwhile, the real Nazis are out marching in the streets chanting 'Free free Palestine'. Yesterday they paid the White House a visit.

Have you ever been to France? They're *all about* French culture as the dominant force. Outside of Paris no one speaks English and they frown on foreigners not making attempts at it. As is their right, by the way.

There is no trend towards "far-right nationalism". What's changing is a worldwide rejection of the kind of toxic, narcissistic leftism that assumes that The Elites know better than everyone else about literally everything.

In Europe their "elites" have been telling them they're growing too much of the wrong kind of food and that the unchecked importations of people who a) don't give a rip about Europe b) are happily there to live off the taxpayers and c) don't believe that the local culture is something to be respected is a great idea. Their citizens have had enough, and now they're doing something about it. I pray we do the same.

I think it's hilarious that after years of downplaying the USSR and Russia that all it took was 1 hoax to get left wingers all riled up about the Russkies. The Europeans understand (and always have) that Putin's crew is no different than what they've always been: A cross between Vienna and the hordes of Genghis Khan.
