Most of us haven't. By "we" I meant the American government and media, which affects the views of a lot of the idiots in this country.

If I sell out, I will be honest about it. I’m not going to sell you bull shite. Do Nike or Lebron have the integrity to do that?

It’s hilarious to even compare the Christians in America to religious extremism across the world.
Yes, that is true.
But our comparison should only be Christ, not other religious people. That’s who we should strive to be like.

So a tweet from 4.5 years ago not calling out China is him calling out China?

Agreed. It's not nearly as powerful as Michael Jordan's (whose entire Jordan line is made in China) tweet calling out China.

Don't you know? LeCuck is just not educated enough to comment on the issue. He just needs to read the first pages of 50 more books.
I mean he wants so badly to be seen as a profound social thinker who stands up for injustice.
But he's not informed enough or intelligent enough to be that person, and those who keep telling him he is do him a disservice by doing so, because it encourages him to keep doing it and constantly exposing his lack of understanding and knowledge.

Christians in America are so “intolerable, racist, misogynist, etc,” yet Muslims literally murder and rape women and children on the regular for being out of line.

Extremist Muslims will kill you. Christians are just assholes.

I doubt it, seems like it's increasing from the U.S.

In 2013 California legalized gay marriage.
In 2010, literally every politician was against gay marriage, including Obama, Hillary, and Brandon
We are getting “better”, but it’s never enough. Just think about how fast all these “leaders” changed their tune and why (rhetorical question, politicians want power and money). Not even a decade later, these same people turn around and accuse literally anyone that doesn’t immediately embrace people identifying as non-binary dolphins as racist bigots, even though they supported the same view for the overwhelming majority of their lives/career.
It’s unbelievable we are destroying this country over such fringe issues that the “elites” are using to divide the country and line their own pockets.
China is winning and when they are the dominate world power, I promise your pronouns will be low on the list of the problems you are worried about.

That Chinese money isn't one bit cleaner than Saudi money.

That number is in the process of changing right now.

Optimism among American manufacturers hit a 20-year high during the Trump administration, but the mood changed swiftly after Joe Biden was elected. Fearing a tsunami of onerous and expensive new regulations, manufacturers began halting expansion projects and trimming planned investments. The CEO of a midsize Ohio company, Alloy Precision Technologies, told USA Today that his firm had spent $9.5 million on new equipment to expand domestic production during the Trump years. Now, though, it was delaying an additional $2 million in spending for equipment and hiring because the Biden administration’s new directives raised costs on everything from labor to opening and expanding industrial facilities. As USA Today noted, in his first few weeks in office, Biden signed “a whirlwind of executive actions” dismantling Trump’s deregulatory agenda, which the Republican president had initiated to cut costs, especially for industrial firms.

What manufacturing? I’d say 90%+ American goods used everyday are made in China
I can't remember the last thing I bought that didn't say Made in China.
Maybe an American flag and a Pabts Blue Ribbon beer.
Drink it, you a-hole...it protects our precious bodily fluids from Communism.
