Dude, you realize a nuclear meltdown releases far more nuclear poison than a nuclear bomb. It’s not about the immediate destructive potential.

A nuclear winter would last at most a decade or two due to the dust thrown into the atmosphere by the explosions. A disaster like Chernobyl, while not even close in terms of destructive power, had the potential to release enough radiation to leave half of Europe uninhabitable for centuries, maybe even millenia. Chernobyl is still dangerous to this day while cities like Hiroshima and Nagasaki are thriving.

And to think you could just abandon a nuclear power plant safely…

You realize used nuclear fuel is extremely hot and still radiating heat and has to be cooled for a long time. You abandoned one without safety measures and the pools cooling the used fuel would just boil and evaporate. The water gone would no longer shield the radiation and you’d have a ton of radioactive material sitting poison into the atmosphere and meltdown.

Some people don’t know shit about nuclear power and like to act condescending “it’s not like a nuclear bomb”. No, it’s far more damgerous.

Because then it would’ve been hit by the meteor head-on! Duh!

Actually, the traditional Jogo da Bolacha is also a thing. If you’re in Portugal and someone asks for you to join, YOU JOIN. It’s extremely rude for foreigners to refuse the Jogo da Bolacha. Specially if the inviter winks at you. It’s also good manners to announce you’ll loose the first few times, while you learn. If people are surprised by this just smile, lick your lips and say you’re the Cookie Monster. You’ll be accepted among us very quickly.

Oh, you’re a feisty one, aren’t you!

Too many do, unfortunately.

I wish we could say the same about Israelis.

Ruler of the Onited Kingdom. I’ll find my way out…

Sure there is. Unlike them, if you break the rules you go to jail.

In their defense, you’d have to be insane to open a gay club in Pakistan.

Now all he needs is a firm handshake!

That corruption exists in most western democracies. The problem is the dogmatic worship for a 200+ years constitution. Temporary fixes won’t do. You guys need to come together and write a NEW modern and functional constitution.

In a one-party dictatorship you also get the option to vote or not vote in the single candidate.

You guys really should wake up from that dream…

or watch the USA and the bulwark of democracy it represents around the world

Are you guys going to tell him?

“Vote for Biden, or else”. Fear tactics at its best.

He doesn’t have to “endure” anyone. His vote is his, that’s it. Deal with it.

By the way, I’m 40. And the reason I tell you is because I’ve been listening for that “just this once” crap since I WAS 12.

20 years ago Bush Jr. was the antichrist. Now…he was not that bad. Trust me, you can have worse than Trump. A competent one. On either party. And that mindset is bringing it closer everyday, you’re just too blind to see it.

So be it. Every empire has to fall, I guess.

You attacked a member of the Green Party for not voting for Biden.

You’d burn down all the third parties out of fear for Trump and then complain when the Democrat President doesn’t give a flying fuck about you.

Say everyone votes for Biden to keep Trump out. Why would Biden care about you? Why would he care what you want in a candidate? Why would he even bother to earn your vote? You’ll vote for him as long as there’s a Trump.

All you’re doing is making sure all candidates get worse and worse. You are saying loud and clear you’ll eat every bowl of shit and take everything up the ass as long as it’s not Trump giving it to you. You are begging to be fucked.

I’m not even American. In my country we can actually vote for who we want. Nobody can form a government against the majority.

Think about my words:

WE CAN ACTUALLY VOTE FOR WHO WE WANT

You can’t. I understand your conundrum. But your solution is to accept it and to revoke your own vote. To revoke other people’s vote who don’t want Trump or Bidden.

Don’t you see the obvious? Being forced to vote for Bidden for fear of Trump will just perpetuate the two party system. It will also keep sending the message that as long as the Republican party is scary enough then the Democratic party only has to be slightly better. Even if another party appears that represents better the will of the people it will stay blocked from power.

This sends the message to both Democrats and Republicans that it is in their best interest to keep things the same or, even better, worse. As long as both sides are always terrified of the other they’ll always vote for “their side” as shitty a candidate they may be. You realize lots of GOP voters also dislike Trump but they see the other side as worse and Trump, in their eyes, is the prefered evil.

This is not about this election. Both Trump or Biden will likely die in office. This is about YOUR future. And let me tell you, either way, unless you break this cicle, it’s a grim one.

Nobody trusts the US anymore. As an European I’ll say we NEED a strong and righteous US but we’re coming to terms we won’t have one anymore and are slowly learning we have to fight our own way in the modern world. Pax Americana is over and you have only yourselves to blame.

But instead of being honest with yourselves you just attack what little democracy you still have left. It’s sad in a shameful way.

This comment should be voted way higher

You’ve made my point, thank you.
