@averagejoe1 saidMoslims don’t average 11 children.
Can you ever recognize something simple? You are getting like Marauder. It is a fact that the world population is declining,,,,,,except of course for the Muslims, they average 11 children. Look it up. So it would follow that Muslims will have us in robes in the not too distant future. They are really nasty and they stink. I stood by one once.
Why do y'all ignore ...[text shortened]... billionaire said it. That is not logical, is it, Kev. You tell us then, what about the population?
And the world population is still growing daily.
You mean white anglo-saxon protestants aren’t procreating enough in the West.
Let me tell you something: just listen to yourselves. It’s no wonder nobody wants to fukk you lot.
@metal-brain saidI never thought I'd be calling you a Pollyanna.
"But it would be nice if all these homeless people weren't there"
If you stopped condoning funding foreign wars and used the money here you could end homelessness easily with money to spare.
@athousandyoung saidGreat movie.MB:
What if Nikola Tesla was never born? Can you imagine how backwards our world would be? Instead of thinking about how bad things would be if we had more people think of how bad things would be if we had a lot less people.From the movie Master and Commander:
"What a fascinating and modern age we live in."

@metal-brain saidIf you're referring to people like Kelvin and Watt it's because the British Empire managed to wrest control of the Americas from Spain...several centuries after Gutenberg adapted Chinese printing technology to Western languages in Germany. Otherwise I have no idea what you're talking about with respect to "Scottish scientifically accomplished people".
Why do you think so many scientifically accomplished people come from Scotland?
I am not saying China did not have books, they did. But they were really expensive to mass produce with the Chinese writing system. If China had a more European writing system we might be talking about how the Chinese started the industrial revolution.
@metal-brain saidYou're really on the edge, man.
As their economies improve they will be. It is inevitable.
Are you claiming they don't offer much technological advance in the world? Who do you think came up with the idea of putting graphene oxide in vaccines? Chinese scientists.

I'd have that looked at.
@earl-of-trumps saidDon't wanna be called racist? Here's a solution.
I'm talking about the resident witch and her propensity to weed racism into the convo and lay into someone.
there is a time and place for everything. But with Suzieanne, any time is good to call out anybody for being racist.
It just gets sickening after a while. She is such a phonie
Try not being a racist. This forum is chock full of them.
Trump's racism, and therefore the racism of his supporters, is killing this country, and destroying our credibility.
@metal-brain saidYou ever tried to type on a Chinese keyboard?! They input information into digital form half as fast as English speakers.
Everything is digital now. Books are starting to be replaced by the internet. Now there is nothing to hold them back.
@metal-brain saidLet me guess. You're Scottish?

It's okay, most rednecks from middle America are Scotch-Irish. Got plenty of them in my family too.
@shavixmir saidHahahahah...

Hang on, Earl will be along any minute to call you a racist.
@athousandyoung saidReally? Thanks for helping me make my case. They are still disadvantaged because of their writing system. If it is that bad now, just think how bad it was when everything was printed on paper.

@metal-brain saidThat didn't stop them being the top technological innovators for over a millenium (or more) when they were hand writing their complex characters instead of simple Western letters.

@metal-brain saidHmmmm, the Japanese seem to have circumvented that.

@athousandyoung saidI know, because that was before books were mass produced. Europeans had to write by hand before then too. Mass producing books at a low cost changed all of that. You don't seem to want to give credit to books for increasing technological innovation. Why not?

@metal-brain saidThe Chinese type a hundred characters a minute.

So, that’s somewhere between 100 and 200 odd words.
How fast do you type?
