  • The “melting pot” is often used wrongly. In this case, you would agree with op.

    The melting pot is not a salad of cultures, it is a cauldron that melts any ingredient and pours it into a unified mold. Rarely are cultural characteristics preserved in the USA. The predominant Us-american culture swallows them whole and everybody becomes American.

    I make my own deodorant cream out of cocos oil, starch and soda. It is not an antiperspirant, as it doesn’t plug the pores. The soda (which is the ingredient actually doing the job) slows down the bacteria who live on the skin surface and who digest the sweat and make it stink. So you can still sweat, but don’t stink.




  • Mearsheimer has been proven wrong again and again on his takes on Ukraine.
    Ukraine has upped the ante on Russia’s finances, targeting oil refineries, storage, drilling platforms and now the shadow tanker fleet. Now Russia is panicking and trying to influence public opinion away from the reality on the ground.

    By the way, since when do we give a hoot about what the elites think? They can get bent. If the scientists and strategists say we need to stand even firmer behind Ukraine to end this whole debacle in a timely manner, than that’s the course of action.
