Wahrheit Posted May 9, 2011 Report Share Posted May 9, 2011 Throughout the world over the past decade or so, and especially this past year, it should be aparrent to anyone worldly engaged that Nationalism has been rising throughout the world. If you pay attention to history, it's one of the few things throughout the world that can cause a World War. I am not sure of the status regarding things like militarism between the countries and how events as Libya play into the world's status, but soon enough there may be a global conflict like the ones all the angry 11 year-olds rage for video games about. Food for thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Revan of the Sith Posted May 9, 2011 Report Share Posted May 9, 2011 I support Nationalism it gives a person a sense of pride in joy in the area they live in, to find the people around you amazing to such a level is a glorious feeling... Extreme nationalism is another story, that can cause world wars... What is going on in America over Osamas death is not extreme nationalism... Because lets be honest, That no-good, low life, extremist, idiotic, psychopathic, ignoramus, murdering, son of a B*tch deserved it... He deserves to be insulted for the rest of his eternal slumber... And the Lybian conflict is perfect to save lybia these revolutions need to happen, they need to undo the crap we in America have done... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'll get paid whenever they get around to it, and China is going to be weakened anyways by the upcoming youth revolution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] You're stupid and making obscene assumptions. China has a lot of smart kids and a lot of jobs, but the majority of those kids work sweatshop jobs with diminished educational potential. Meanwhile, the good old US of A has an ever growing military with a stockpile of nuclear warheads able traverse the route to China in the time it takes to order a pizza. What you should know is that this is a global recession, not just a national or even local one. The way things are going there will probably be some sort of full-scale war at some point, but it won't be fought in a traditional manner. Expect more espionage and collateral damage, for the only way to avoid fallout is an initial covert strike. Nationalism is not just pride of country, it is the spirit, almost in anger, of a single unified country without any overarching societies, agreements or governments. That is what is happening in Libya and what might lead to more conflict. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Please don't be so ignorant. If we assumed for one moment that the privileged population of China had their excellent scores on account of intelligence rather than strict societally forced and suicide inducing work, it wouldn't matter. Look at the statistics - US pours far more money into the military than any other country. It's killing us, but if it were to ever help in a situation it would be this one. Point is, don't give in to debt hysteria. Other countries will have to wait for us to get around to it while politicians use the debt as a surreal debate point.

In addition, if you're associating me with America with "we", please don't. I'm stating that the United States has more money than Libya. Are you telling me a country as small as Libya has as much power as the United States? I know Libya has money, but to say it has more than the United States is foolish.

America killed anywhere from 100,000 to 1,000,000 in Iraq. Notice the difference? Also, China is not a Communist country. It is a very capitalist one, hence the fact that they export and import a lot of things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Such is why I dislike the country. They curse and curse at people that have done a fraction of a minor percent of what they have. Which is also why I find Americans who insult, for example, Osama after his death and hope he doesn't rest in peace for everybody he's killed when they've killed so much more. Not only in Iraq, but all around the world as well. Tearfully barbaric, though. Unfortunately, it is all subjective through my words, yet objective through fact.

~/Coolio Prime\~ Posted May 11, 2011 Report Share Posted May 11, 2011 Eh, I can't stand people that want to condemn someone as devoted to helping people as Osama, but the US also donates large amounts to countries in need without any underlying or extremely malicious motives surrounding it. It's a shame, but people always turn a blind eye to either the cons or the pros. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AsianGuy1137 Posted May 11, 2011 Report Share Posted May 11, 2011 So we can just accept that nobody's perfect while also focusing on the positive side of things like how everyone could stop pointing fingers and try to work together to form a more perfect union? No? Well, maybe after the next world war. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
