Re: Does the Southern Hemisphere still have Boy Scouts?
Where I grew up was very pretty rural Wisconsin, all farmland and old woods where we could go looking for imaginary abandoned German prison camps. Scouting wasn't anywhere on the radar screen.

Not too hard to guess what's being indicated here. Oh, the blond woman is Stormy Daniels.

Re: Does the Southern Hemisphere still have Boy Scouts?
A (mostly) Southern Hemisphere country has about eighteen times the times the number of Scouts the US has according to this map. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gerakan_Pramuka_Indonesia The Pramuka Movement incorporates both boys and girls. It is an educational movement through Scouting activities, t...

Re: trump off the CO ballot
Every free society will have some element of plutocracy, after all. No shit. NZ is held up as a close-to-perfect democracy, where every vote counts, but even when a left government is voted in we end up with the same old shit. Rich people got richer faster under Labour than they did under the prior...

Re: trump off the CO ballot
hmmm... does the Press Clause of the First Amendment give the institutional press any freedoms from government restraint not enjoyed by everybody else? Not really. Exactly.

We talk about free speech more often, but the free press is more relevant here. Having a free press ...

Re: trump off the CO ballot
Based on that description, I would rather live here. In a binary choice between America and Bolivia? Fuck yeah. I believe the US is more democratic than Bolivia. This is not a high bar. Indeed it is not, which is why the comparison is kind of nonsensical. Then why on earth did you start making that...
