I love watching you simple bastards pretend that numbers make you right.
Then levity overcomes me.
It's a certain mentality. And you can't give ground to ignorance no matter how loudly it wails.

Hmm. I don't celebrate the civil war. And, I almost certainly agree with you one why it was fought.
Sounds like what you're good at is rationalizing that all disagreement with you is born of stupidity.
Not surprised. That is pretty much the liberal way.

I think it's entertaining.
ShortyRob's saltiness is a new favorite.

Anyways, I'm about to watch some Bourdain and get ready for the week. I'm trying to get my 4 miles down to 30 minutes. Been on a plateau for a while.
This should suck. Don't have too much fun with the bros.

What is the Russian leadership's position regarding their muslim problem
Two things. They've actively encouraged Islamists to go to Syria, so much so that Russians make up one of the largest demos in ISIS. Secondly, they've propped up Kadyrov and invested a ton of money into Grozny. The demographic problems underlying these issues they haven't touched, as if the figures are right, the birth rates in Dagestan and Chechnya are much higher than in the rest of Russia.
They also rebuilt a large mosque in Moscow that was based off the Blue Mosque (I think) in Turkey, and invited Erdogan and Mahmoud Abbas to open it. Any notion that they've been harder on their Muslim population isn't based in reality. Their position seems to be that they are ready to shift toward the Islamic world if they are continually shut out of their traditional sphere of influence. The very tight Tehran-Moscow axis has become central to their foreign policy.

This just proves when you see a buzzfeed article that starts "scientists say..." You are the delusional

Well, that and frankly, I don't think it's reasonable for us to run around calling ourselves a nation that values liberty anymore. I mean, it's just quite obviously not true.
Far as I'm concerned, we should pull the phrase "land of the free" from the anthem(lol and the need to edit).
So, perhaps I'm just less patient or deferential than I used to be.

Now, isn't that time.

You see. Now this is what is known as an actual answer.
