Let's continue tomorrow.Gotta do some drinking now. It's my culture.

If you are going to live in another culture for an extended period of time, culture appropriation should be a requirement.

In Los Angeles? They only make up 10% of the state of California, and 10% of the population in L.A.

I'm beginning to think that you can't have a political discussion with American liberals on immigration or multiculturalism, because they have no idea what where on about.

I can drive through two states in the U.S. and see absolutely no cultural diversity....or racial diversity for that matter (its like entering into a weird 1980's time warp)It's not until I hit San Francisco that I notice a difference, but it still pales in comparison to Vancouver or London for that matter.

For them to grasp the grievances of working class in the UK on this matter and why immigration played such a large role in the brexit vote must be completely incomprehensible to them. They're living in a totally different world demographically.

^There is nothing more obnoxious and self righteous than that attitude right there. I'd lose all credibility if I said something of that ilk about conservatives (in a non joking manner).

And don't pin Texas on me, I said I lived in Los Angeles.

I don't think it's possible not to appropriate at least some of the culture.

Based, is this a bad thing? I must confess I'm quite taken with him. When I became a disillusioned liberal he was the key figure in marching me over to the right on this issue.

I love the pissed off interview he had with Al Jazeera


Based is supposed to be a good thing but fuck that Douglas twat. It makes complete sense why Clancy and the other few that brought up his name would worship him. Speaks volumes.

He can't even answer a simple question without trying to push his agenda. He's a typical politician.

I see, well coming from North America, Sam Harris is most based as well. :)

Christopher Hitchens though, I must say was the most based off them all. My personal favourite polemicist of all time.

Why are you comparing London and Vancouver to US states instead of to US cities?
