Okay, just so I don't get annoyed and be boomery about it, what is the new incorrect usage?
You don't have 48 lats?!? Hit the gym bro.
It's more that our reacting to everything is exactly what he wants.
An independent or swing voter (the kind whom the Left needs in order to win the election) is not going to read this headline and think trump is actually going to institute the Purge. Instead, they'll take this as "the media blowing trump out of proportion again. Pro ably can't trust them, better do my own research." Which plays directly into donald's hands.
It's like, did you ever bug a younger sibling? The easiest thing to do would be something minor that would make them over react and mom and dad would get pissed about the over reaction and forget the original issue. In this case, donald is poking the media so they over react and announce donald echoes fascist rhetoric or whatever else, putting off independent voters.

Very little as I disagree with the things continuing on.
We made it through the Cold War, but as any student of history will note, barely.
This has, I think, given us a false sense of confidence and it's like the drunk driver who claims that because they survived last night they will do so again tonight.
I don't 100% know things will go wrong but I do know that many different countries are A) pursuing nuclear weapons B) entering very politically unstable times and C) are just about to start hitting serious consequences as a result of climate change.
America went from the richest country in the world to the richest country in the world, freaked out and elected trump. How crazy will other, nuclear armed, countries get when food and water become serious issues?
There's of course a good chance we pull through, drunk drivers tend to survive or the issue would've self corrected long ago. But I dislike being forced to participate in a global game of Russian roulette.
For others who have been less than impressed by the accuracy of rawStory's headlines, looks like he legit said something like this. Admittedly, an off the cuff thing we'll take too seriously but it did happen.
I think this every time I'm in the wrong traffic-wise!
This reminds me of that classic moment in A Fish Called Wanda:
"I've known sheep that could outwit you! I've worn dresses with a higher IQs but you think you're an intellectual, don't you you ape!?!"
"Apes don't read philosophy." (Said with a smirk.)
"Yes they do, they just don't understand it!"
Yes, Israel will surely change national policy that is costing them billions because a minor port is temporarily closed...
Is this actually the chain of events for which you are hoping? Or is there another step I'm not seeing? Because I hope you have something better than "Israel will have a harder time supplying potash! First the potash, then peace!"
How does attacking civilian freighters encourage any government to do that?
I'm trying to understand how you think this helps the Palestinean cause in any way.
I cancelled prime when they first introduced ads. But the delivery fees without prime, damn. I think I'd pirate shows if I got prime but I'm pretty sure that just makes them think they should invest in fewer shows. And damned if, pre ads, prime didn't have a lot of my favourites (boys, invincible, end of the expanse etc.)
What a ramble. I'm just torn.
