Question for Euro-Zone people
How does the whole soveriegn debt fiasco look from your point of view?

I know that people from Europe sometimes find it baffling how the safety net is much weaker in the US than in their home nations, but I think we here find the level of tax evasion, bribery, and corruption in the southern tier nations equally baffling....

No Joke, this is a quote from a facebook arguement I am in
I will support Zack's decision to enter into the dangerously racist field of biology, despite the fact that reason and logic certainly have no place in the future socialist empire of equality and freedom which we will fight for and inherit, despite our low-birthrate and poor schooling. We will survive!

My natural hair and eye color are as you have said. Also note that there are mutations in genetic code so that hair closer to brown may exist.

"My natural hair and eye color are as you have said. Also note that there are mutations in genetic code so that hair closer to brown may exist."
Your FB photo suggests otherwise. And genetic mutations is what causes ethnic diversity. It was a mutation that caused the races to become different.

Why don't you study genetics and evolution before claiming what race is superior.

What photo are you referencing? The greyscale one? And what matters most is heriatage and clinging to that. Slight variation of hair color may only be present in a few children if ethnicity is kept in marriage. Regardless, my 50% German heritage does account for most of my genetic stucture. I would wish that I could become more heavily integrated...

That was directed at jmo.
As for the stupid comment of spyman: No, I am not going to set aside my political lean. My sense of a strong government resides because I have yet to see a non-conservative nation do well for a long period of time. Prove to me that liberals can succeed and I'll think about changing my ways. As for the racial aspect of it, simply put...I see myself, being German, as being greater among men. One of my only two complaints about America is that it has no individual culture. This is a breeding place among pigs. Europe is headed in the same direction. Humanity should not be united under the premise of humanity, but under the single premise of who is the strongest. Those willing to fight the hardest for self-preservation deserve to out live their weaker counterparts. Diversity ruins all, unity binds the world together.

That's cool KA. You're a kid and you have kid way of looking at the world.
I suppose I could dissect the flaws in your thinking but there's no point. If you have half-a-brain you'll figure yourself it out yourself once you learn a bit more.
Read your last post over - its really simplistic and naive nonsense. Sorry, but intelligent and educated people just don't think like that. I am sure if you hung out with the local KKK club or with some skinheads they would agree with you - but they're morons. You claim to be intelligent....It occurs to me that you're trying to be funny. Maybe its satire.

"Aryan and white are not exactly equivalent..." fine. Though it boggles my mind that people even make this distinction anymore.

"And who cares about blacks who over-achieve." I sure as hell do. It makes every bigoted douchebag like you drink a tall glass of STFU when you see a great counterexample for everything you stand for.

"as for latinos they steal our jobs and give nothing back" This country is built on their backs. You're using the same sentiment that people had against Italian-Americans 100 years ago, and a hundred years from now people will look back and laugh at people like you... well, many already do.

"as for Asians and everyone else pretty much, they're not cool people." ROFL you must not know the same asians as I do. The most friendly and chill folks I've ever met, bar none.

My natural aversion to your stupidity has increased to outright abhorrence. You are a pathetic, racist, little worm. It's ok... you still have Jeebus. Oh wait, he wasn't Aryan... omg he actually probably looked a bit like an ARAB! Idiot.

Aaaaaand whatever shred of respect for your intellectual position here has just been incinerated...

1. Biology is NOT a racist or racially-charged field
2. Biology does NOT determine differences between races, let alone a "Master Race"
3. Seriously...I know it's in your name, but...Fascist-much?
4. Have I mentioned you're an idiot yet?
5. Skin color, hair color...these have exactly 0% to do with IQ levels
6. ENVIRONMENT has quite a bit to do with IQ levels
7. Judging by your lack of intelligence, I hereby posit your environment is a cardboard box
8. Have I mentioned you're an idiot?

"I think quite a few teenage boys go through a fascist stage. I think it gives some kids a sense of belonging. Fasces and King Atom will grow out of it in a few years."
I grew out of it 2 years ago. Just never bothered to tell anyone for the sake of easy trolling :)

@obi:
1. It can be, as orothiac and the discussion on FB clearly proved.
2. It does sho differences between the races, but once again as Orathiac suggested it doesn't show a master race
3. How so?
5. Did I ever say otherwise? I was provided information for my good friend King Atom, not saying he was right.
6. So does genetics...
7. Actually its a torontonian high school for gifted students.
9. Do I care?

I completely ignored 8 and 4 due to its failed attempt to insult me and the fact that I had to to prevent me from loosing any more respect for your already rather idiotic intellectual positions.

"Well, by posting this batshit insane bullshit at all, really, but CERTAINLY not by posting it and prefacing that post by saying it's something from a Facebook discussion..."
Unlike you Americans, we canadians can actually have intellectual discussions on facebook, my 3 primaries uses of facebook are study groups, trolling and political debates. Its essentially what I do here, with the added bonus of study groups.

However I feel more free trolling here, at least I did before the mute button...
Mafialligator (239 D)
16 Sep 11 UTC
I don't politically debate on facebook. Nor do any of my friends with one or two incidents aside, usually around the time of the election.

And we're all Canadian also. Plus I like that you call this discussion you do "intellectual". You've got moxie so blatantly misusing the word like that.
Fasces349 (0 DX)
16 Sep 11 UTC
moxie?

Any political debate in which I don't troll in, I consider to be intellectual.

But your right, not all Canadians are as interested in politics as we are. So let me rephrase that.

we GIFTED canadians can actually have intellectual discussions on facebook,

I laugh at anyone who associates with socialists thinking they're intelligent. The sheer toxicity of their failed worldview is a tumour on society and, like tumours, they corrupt those near them.

Your malignant bile is upsetting to the oesophagus of free speech and hard labour that made [insert your country here] great. I'd spit on your vile corpse but a) I wouldn't waste the saliva; and b) they wouldn't find it after the socialists had torn it apart like vultures searching for the sustenance they crave when isolated from the hardworking.

Also, you're stupid.

The term "Aryan" in fact comes from present-day India, which the denizens of used to refer to themselves. Interesting fact for the white =/= Aryan crowd, because Aryans aren't white at all. At least, not all of them are.

Nubz: I'm not sure what country you are from but pretty much every nation on this planet has at one point or another technically met the definition of socialist. If there is a tax on anything that goes towards schooling, healthcare or hell, technically having a post office, your state is technically a socialist one to one extent or another. But honestly, if you have so little respect for people with the opposing view point, I have to wonder why you are posting in a thread and putting your ideas up to their critique.

Maybe I'm crazy, but I'm calling troll on Atom. At very least it has hit the point in Poe's law where I can't take him seriously.

Also, Facebook is hardly a haven for intellectualism. It's a bit odd considering Marxists tend to be the pseudo-intellectual types though all things considered, I'd put him on the far right in the same vien as National Socialist with his comment about Empires, though honestly he just seems like he's trying to form a unique opinion without fully understanding the implications of it.

Statistics
Does anyone know a website that has relatively recent Diplomacy statistics for things like victories, defeats, draws, opening moves, etc? I've recently re-read The Game of Diplomacy and am curious to see if any of the statistics that Sharp quoted have dramatically changed, but a cursory google search failed to find anything productive. Is there a database for statistics from this website? The 25,000+ games is a huge potential data set.
