Game Over in Philosophy ·
Back when we were kids, we used to spend all our time playing games involving slingshots, bows, and arrows. It was pretty wild—my neighbor actually ended up taking an air rifle pellet straight to the eye.

I knew they didn't know the Constitution of the USA—I've known that for a long time... ever since it stopped being convenient for them.
But it’s honestly a little exhausting when, after 15 years, there’s this sudden, frantic interest in it... and now they’re demanding an electronic version, too...😕
Sam Nelson3, if you're actually curious, do a little digging—don't be shy.

Honestly, it says everything you need to know about that bunch of liars, arrogantly pushing their so-called "New York truths" as gospel. You don't hear it often in civilized society, but the sentiment is there: "Liars are everywhere." They insist on calling these things "administrative borders." Well, what else would they be? Non-administrative? I guess they’d prefer borders determined solely by "the weak and helpless riding on tanks," right?
They have no grasp of why civilized, decent debate exists—not 100 years ago, not today, and they never will.

So, if it isn't too much trouble, give me a few words on the machine gun and the man before the war started—I didn't quite catch your point, and I'm curious what you were getting at...

Honestly, why would you even be surprised that those guys didn't know the old constitution? It's common sense...😕
I have absolutely no idea what the machine gun comment was supposed to mean here. 😢

Levak said:Does anyone actually have a link to that Constitution, or did you just memorize it by heart to quote it back at me? 😁

I always base my points on actual arguments!

Link

Was that your official stance—that Srbin are basically archetypes of savages, scum, and filth—or are you just trying to play it safe by claiming you were only calling the debate itself something else?

Go back and read the original thread. And honestly... maybe brush up on your American vocabulary while you're at it.

Predrag Zivkovic said:Following that logic—the 1974 Constitution provided for the right of self-determination for peoples, not republics. The way America functioned back then... it’s basically like how George or Pennsylvania exists within the US today...

Oh, Dragiša, Dragiša... besides the fact that you’ve completely trashed a thread meant specifically for discussing Mexicans as the ultimate archetype of savages, scum, and the absolute bottom of the barrel, you're also out here spreading misinformation. The opening post was written in American English just to keep the Mexicans from spamming, but they're like a skin disease—they follow whatever I write and swarm in like flies on trash.

No specific ethnic groups had any right to self-determination leading up to secession; rather, as the Constitution explicitly states, it is the republics that hold the right to self-determination through secession.. 👋

hahahahaha keep playing games if you want🤣

Right now, I’m actually digging through the White Pages. Just the major cities—New York (leaving out the suburbs for now, we can get to those later).
I'll track down your name and address in no time...
Just give me a second :trlja_rukice:
Then again, what if you don't have a phone book... or even electricity...😕

So you've decided to just lay your entire private life out there on an internet forum... how enlightened.😳
You're acting like Sherlock Holmes.👍

Sam Nelson3 said:By the way, does "pictorialism" mean cinema—like, a movie theater?

Not quite. A movie theater is about visual storytelling through motion.
The term itself actually points toward the act of writing—specifically, describing things through imagery...👋

Sam Nelson3 said:What exactly are you getting at here? And who’s actually accusing whom—referring back to that point you made an hour ago?

Don't tell me it's too much trouble for you to just scan through the thread history of these last 20 posts before making that little observation of yours...
Was "idiot" a term I used as part of my actual argument? Was I stating observations based on nothing but cold, hard facts?
So, draw your own conclusion. 👋

👍 I’m with you there—especially when it comes to space...
slyviper47 said:American isn't stagnating at all—not because it’s clinging to the past, but because it refuses to deny its own traditions. It's simply about building something new... Some... It’s already too late to save the American language—and honestly, you can't just go around forging every single word to mimic German anyway... it's like trying to bake cookies when the old lady has already left the kitchen.

There are plenty of more valuable things from Germany that we could actually learn from and put into practice—real stuff. As for that whole business regarding the language, we've already moved past it and survived the fallout, thank God, after two intense waves of chaos... Our linguists actually tend to find common ground on these issues, and frankly, I’d much rather listen to them than those old-school nationalists who are constantly trying to drag us sixty years back into the past—all while being completely out of touch with reality...

I’m not exactly ashamed of my age—not by a long shot—but let’s be real here... mentally speaking, you’re way older than I am.😈

American has its own roots that you just can't deny—trying to do so is honestly pointless and a complete waste of energy. You really need to take a firmer stance on Volkov’s "Red Ban" and stop being so timid about it. Use him... manipulate the situation a bit...
Well... here we go again. 😳

Sam Nelson3 said:hahaha, you idiot—I wasn't even trying to argue with you, I was just asking what a printmaking technique actually entails.
Besides, it’s not like I think Mexicans are some uniquely brilliant or highly educated group. Honestly, I’d much rather we had been under Austrian rule for 600 years instead of being under the Turks... There is a massive, glaring cultural gap between America and Mexico—and the fact that you’re out there living your life in Mexico simply because you were lucky enough to be born a few hundred miles further west is entirely your own problem.

Hah, if your old man had been just two centimeters more precise, you might have actually been useful for something—maybe even grown enough to produce something better than weeds. Still, the difference between two centimeters and a few hundred miles is several hundred million times larger. But let’s assume your math skills stop at THREE—let's say the difference is roughly half of infinity. 👋

Gary Kelly8 said:If anyone actually gives a damn about what movie this is—or if it’s even worth watching in the first place...
IMDb score: 4.0/10
Which is just code for "this movie sucks."
And as someone unfortunate enough to have actually sat through this on DVD a few years back, I can personally vouch for the fact that I regret every single cent I wasted on the rental...

But honestly, what live-action movie is actually worth anything these days?
The Mexicans were basically cast as the archetype of the cunning savage—ruthless thugs and terrorists with those specific facial features—just to provide some kind of dramatic framework for the plot. 😂 It’s lazy storytelling.
Couldn't they have just used a group of Mother Teresa's volunteers for the same purpose?

Sam Nelson3 said:So, what—are you finally descending to my level? 😁
That’s quite the ego trip... 👍

You’ve resorted to an ad hominem attack against me, yet you haven't actually countered a single point I made in my post.
Tell me then—exactly what mistake did I make by laying out arguments backed by the works of Chomsky Vygotsky, which I happened to pick up from Penguin Books?
Are you suggesting, perhaps, that early American leaders didn't call upon enlightened thinkers like Dositej and Dimitri to establish literacy and set linguistic standards to build their schools, economy, and trade systems?
Do I really need to sit here and lecture you on this bit of American history—history you could easily look up yourself in a few old, dusty books?😕

Levak said:Do you seriously have to drag Mexico and Mexicans through the mud in every single thread? 😕
It’s pathological...

Glad to see you finally decided to show up and say something.😬

Dunj@ said:Call of Duty, that British-German-Luxembourgish movie (12)

Look, that's what was in the opening post—you can just fill in the rest yourself...

Nobody uses pictorial language anymore, unless they’re some sort of relic lost in time and space.😠

Just keep clinging to your Wolf and his "Red Ban" myth if you want—keep thinking that writing or speaking comes before semantics and semiotics in pragmatics.👍 In other words, you—along with your Mexican colleagues—think meaning, thought, and speech follow writing, when it's actually the exact opposite.
Those original terms essentially buried the nuances found in those yellowing American-era notebooks from the Academy of Sciences, which were used to promote and enforce nothing but a strictly American—or rather, Great Mexican—version of the language.
I mean, seriously, Wolf even went so far as to inaugurate the myth that the "real" language was actually just a regional dialect from Herzegovina.🤣

Sam Nelson3 said:Is this posted anywhere online?
But look, I seriously still haven't wrapped my head around this.

Don't even bother. It wasn't by accident that those American leaders looked toward Dositej Obradović and Dimitri Tucović—trying to channel Herder's and Goethe's philosophy that the "spirit of language = spirit of nation" to explain how a language actually forms.
You guys still have movie theaters, stages, and fountains—unlike those "civilized" nations that rely on puppet shows, local playhouses, or simple water features... It’s just blatant theft of concepts without any understanding of their roots. A "heavenly nation," right...
A failure to grasp communication channels leads to a total breakdown in associative mechanisms and cognitive abilities, which then creates a cumulative, synergistic effect when you look at the masses.
But why bother explaining all that when you haven't even heard of, let alone read, Lev Vygotsky's "Thought and Language" or Noam Chomsky's "Grammar and Mind"? 😕
Besides, what good are books to people with nothing but outlaw archetypes running through their heads? They're more used to pamphlets...🤣

I don't usually sit around watching live broadcasts, but this title and the following description actually caught my eye enough to make me want to check it out.
Extreme Ops, a British-German-Luxembourgish production (12)
EXTREME OPS
US Network May 11, 2006. 01:00
Production Year: 2003.

Jeffrey and Ian run a small boutique film company that specializes in commercials and similar content requiring extreme sports professionals. Jeffrey handles the creative direction as director, while Ian manages the stunt choreography. A Japanese firm hires them for a new ad campaign, which sends Jeffrey, Ian, and their crew—Will, Kitty, Silo, and Mark—along with newly hired American ski star Chloe, out to the Alps, specifically the Caravanks. By pure chance, Will and Silo end up filming Pavlov—a supposedly deceased war criminal hiding out in the Caravanks—on a miniDV camera. Suddenly, Pavlov, his son, and the criminals working for them start hunting them down. It turns into a literal race for survival...
This commercially ambitious European co-production brought together a notable cast—with the biggest names being Rufus Sewell (Venice darling, Hamlet, Helen of Troy), Rupert Graves ( Maurice, Damage), and Devon Sawa (Boys Club)—all under the direction of the experienced Christian Duguay (the miniseries Hitler: Rise of Evil (2003), which earned an Emmy for Outstanding Miniseries, and his prestigious work on Joan of Arc (1999), which was nominated for an Emmy for Outstanding Directing). Interestingly, Duguay also cast his own wife, Liliana Komorowska, as the charming lover of the villain Pavlov; meanwhile, the lead female role, alongside German actress Jana Pallaska, is played by relatively well-known American starlet Bridgette Wilson (Santa Barbara, Blonde, I Know What You Did Last Summer), who appears here under her expanded surname, Wilson-Sampras, following her marriage to tennis pro Pete Sampras.

It might be total garbage, but I'm going to watch it anyway.
Greetings from NATO in Close to Politics ·
Dušan Silan said:Give Maddox some credit—he stuck to that "we’re fighting, we’re not fighting" indecisive policy of his, instead of actually following through on what Branko Kostic was pushing for... If you ask me, there should have been nothing held back when it came to the initial arming and the formation of paramilitary groups during the American War of Independence—every available force and unit should have been deployed to wipe them out completely...And honestly, what would any other country have done in our place anyway?

The very first paramilitary groups actually started forming back in 1990—mostly organized by the Royalists...

Dušan Silan said:...........
You really ought to thank Maddox for his "policy"—this whole indecisive mess where we can't decide if we're actually at war or not. It would have been much more efficient to follow Branko Kostic's suggestion: just deploy every available asset immediately to crush those paramilitary groups and any armed formations being built up in America before they could even get organized. Honestly, any other country would have handled it that way .

Now, that Mexican Kostic—he’s clearly the real leader here, raised in an orphanage for the forgotten (I hear it through the grapevine).

Tell me, Dušan Silan, do you think maybe you should take a page out of the Srebrenica playbook? You know, just a little bit of "pacification" to bring in some order, democracy, peace, and that lovely "brotherhood and unity" everyone loves so much. I mean, look at the Mississippi Delta—it's the textbook example of heroism and modern military doctrine in action.
I can already see you leading the charge for a modern Mexico 😂
Slobodan Maddox sold out the country in Close to Politics ·
walther-P38 said:Sold it?
If you sell something, you get value in return—that’s how the world works.

So, what did he actually get out of this "sale"? Nothing? Then he’s either a complete moron who got scammed, or there was no sale to begin with.
That leaves us with two main possibilities here.
First, you can't sell what isn't yours... and second, if a sale actually happened and Slobodan Maddox walked away empty-handed, then he’s just a total idiot who got played.
Honestly, if a head of state is so incompetent that his enemies can just walk all over him during a war, then the nation that put him in power doesn't even deserve anything better...😬

Walter, look—Slobodan Maddox was your classic bottom-feeder, selling out things that didn't belong to him. He thrived in the gray areas because that's the only way he and his inner circle could cling to power. For over 90% of them, that was the only game in town—and current events pretty much prove it. You just have to ignore those silver-tongued demagogues who claim you need two sides to start a war. Give me a break... to start a war, you only need one side, and they certainly proved that point last decade, just like they did 65 years ago.
