But anyway, guys. Republicans say this is only 10% of the information they are going to release. So strap yourselves in. While dems deal in innuendo and empty conspiracy theories that would make a bigfoot researcher proud, Republicans are going to give you cold, hard data; intelligence reports. Gonna make for a few very uncomfortable months for shrill, emotionally driven SJWs. But one thing I know for sure, none of it will phase you. You will continue to believe whatever fantasy you want to. But those in the middle will see the truth and that's what matters.

1. The FBI and DOJ are not Democrats. They disagree with this memo.

2. Mueller is not a Democrat.

3. This memo was not cold hard data, or an intelligence report. It was 4 pages of cherry picked and factually inaccurate data from a 50+ page FISA Warrant. It noted no broken FISA laws.

? Boy, are you in for it. Conservatives know how intensely dense you people are so they're fully aware you have to be hit on the head with a sledgehammer 10X before you even begin to get it and that's exactly what they intend to do. More information is coming, like 90% more. Gonna be fun. Russia, Russia, Russia!!!! Bwahahaha.

Socialists murdered 100 million people in the last century. Yet you think they're incapable of this? This is small potatoes for leftists and not a surprise at all. This is just the way it starts. Grow up. The political group advocating for larger state; more government power is the one you should beware every time.

@multiplat:

The whining millenials (not all) should stop placing the blame on ALL (you made a sweeping statement) baby boomers as if they are responsible for millenials failng to be responsible. And don't blame parenting, most parents of millenials are not even boomers as I stated before.

And I agree with the guy who says we need to curb mass immigration into the U.S., that's one of the very few things Trump got right (just not as heavy handed as he originally proposed) and Obama screwed up on. Many Millenials are just idealistically naive when it comes to this. Millenials have a lot more information at a younger age (mostly thanks to boomers) but they aren't any smarter than any previous generation, they just think they are.

EXACTLY word for word what was said about my generation X-Gen.

EXACTLY the same thing the Greatest Generation said about the hippy generation (which is boomers)

Yup. Nothing but a bunch of people dumping on the younger generation because they don't like how their lives turned out. People have done it since the beginning of time, nothing new. What I really get a kick out of are the people who think they've stumbled upon some big secret. Like "Oh my god, I've had a revelation, everything wrong with the world today, it's because kids today don't try!" And I'm all like "Oh, you mean we had to try? So that's what we've been doing wrong! Thank god, here I am working a minimum wage job, barely paying the bills and making enough to feed myself, navigating financial aid and racking up debt to put myself through college, but all I really have to do is try! Thank you for pointing that out, you're the first person who's ever thought of that!"

And let's not even get started on the people blaming it all on immigrants. I mean, the minimum wage has fallen against inflation since the 70's, unions have declined in membership since the 70's, certain sectors like the financial sector have exploited the tax code and corporate culture to favor certain professions over others and accumulate wealth for those professions since the 70's. But no, it's the immigrants who ruined everything.

You just answered your own question and hilariously don't even get the connection. So all those problems started in the 70s? And when did immigration get started? When did idiotic leftist hippies start changing things? Oh, that's right, the 60s. So a few years after the immigration door was swung open and we became liberal the problems started.

Btw, prior to 1965 there were several decades straight where America was greatly restricting immigration. That period produced the strongest working class not only in American history, but world history.

I'm not going to bother looking for more. You know how to use google. We could trade links all day. There are articles all over the place arguing both conclusions.

I also have my own life experience to pull from. There's a large meat packing plant nearby here. 20 years ago the starting wage there was $9.00 per hour. None of the old employees are there anymore. It is now staffed entirely by Guatemalans and the starting wage has dropped to $7.50 per hour. 20 freakin' years and the starting wage went DOWN. If immigration makes jobs better then why the hell didn't the wages there go up?

While it is basically a fact that this generation has it a bit tougher, the amount of people who try to use that as an excuse not to try is way too high. People can still succeed if they put the work in even when the odds are stacked against them. The main problem I see is that even kids coming out of college and getting good jobs are still stuck with $50k-$150k in debt that basically stalls their lives for years. I got a good job right out of college as a software engineer and while I can live comfortably, my loans put things like buying a house far out of reach for a few years. Not trying to complain as I feel very happy with my life, but some things are still much harder to do now than when my parents were my age.

Y'all keep voting for more mass immigration over jobs. Well over a million new immigrants keep coming in every year, most from poor nations. And to plenty of them very low wages by our standards is a bonanza compared to where they came from. So wages never go up, haven't in decades except for your better white collar jobs, but the job market keeps getting more competitive. I for one think we're plenty multicultural already and have nothing left to prove. But the talking heads on tv (Owned by the very multinational corporations y'all claim to hate btw) keep convincing a large portion of the population that no amount is ever enough. Well, continuing to believe that will come at a cost: very low wages and lots of people with no jobs at all. Stop immigration and wages can start going up. Leave the floodgates open and your options keep deteriorating. Your choice.

This is the kind of thing that gives me hope for the future. Millennials seem to not only see through all the lies people have told in order to smear minorities, but they see why those lies were told in the first place. They see people like you for what you are: toxic, selfish, small-minded bigots. It sincerely warms my heart to know that when people like you go around telling us to hate and fear other groups, we respond by embracing their humanity. We'll all be better off for it.

Yawn. Enjoy your parents' basement then, buddy. I don't want immigration from white countries either. We're full. Our jobs keep going overseas, people from overseas keep coming here. Something gotta give and it's giving like crazy. This whole feelings over math and common sense started with the hippie generation in the late 1960s and that's when American workers started getting worse off and when we started getting into debt, etc. Y'all want to blame prior generations for your woes but each generation keeps doubling down on the puppies and butterflies bullshit. If you're more concerned about people in India and Ecuador and Brazil and wherever than you are your friends, family, neighbors, and yourself then their gonna keep getting better off and you're gonna keep getting worse off. And that's fine if you want it that way. Everyone gets a vote. But stop fucking whining when the politicians your heartstrings voted for do exactly what you asked them to.

Man he gave you actual facts and stats and you just folded and couldn't defend your point and instead just spewed what can only be considered as nonsense. Was really fun to watch lol. You literally can't back up any one of those points with facts.

Are you kidding me? I didn't read his links or even click on them. It's a big internet. I could find a kzillion links that back up my perspective if I wanted to as well.

I get a kick out of millennials thinking they can have it all. You think you can improve the lives of everyone in the world without losing anything you have, lol. That's a fantasy.

That all then accelerated like gangbusters in the 90s when immigration transformed into mass immigration, trade deals like NAFTA happened, China got welcomed into the WTO, etc. Situation for their workers got better, situation for ours got worse; give and take. If you're more concerned about people in India and Ecuador and Brazil and wherever than you are your friends, family, neighbors, and yourself then they're gonna keep getting better off and you're gonna keep getting worse off.

I thought it was good. I'm not so much a fan of X being so much about 4k though. Still believe that 2k is plenty for games and use all the extra horsepower for framerate, effects, art, etc, instead. 90% of Hollywood films being made today aren't even native 4k. Most of them are filmed with digital cameras and are mastered in 2k. Yeah, there's a 4k blu ray format now but whether ya knew it or not most of the films available for it are 2k upscaled to 4k. There are 4k native blu ray films but they are the minority. If Hollywood thinks 2k is good enough for movies on theater screens, and apparently so do moviegoers cuz I haven't heard about any outcry, then why do we need native 4k games on our tvs? Just seems like a waste of the horsepower to me.

Sweden will not exist in any way that is recognizable within 3 decades. Can I prove it? Of course not.

We know you can't since you're merely spouting alt right nonsense. I'm sorry it pains you to see brown people in society.

Sigh, ain't about skin color, about culture. I would vote for Allen West or Larry Elder today if they were running for something here. But y'all never get it, always reduce things to oversimplified, juvenile terms. Only problems I got with immigration from just about anywhere (Aside from the way they vote) is their lack of self respect for themselves ... demand a decent damned wage for yourselves! When they agree to work for nothing it hurts everyone. The one exception is Muslims. Islam is not compatible with western culture / liberal ideals. Go ahead and pretend otherwise. Y'all are gonna find out, or your children will anyway. In Europe anyway as we don't have nearly the kind of percentages of Muslims as they're foolishly bringing in.
