None, because if you have a PhD, you're smart enough not to try it.


There are no work police in Europe who go round every workplace to make you log your hours working and arrest you if it's over 40.

It's much easier to get citizenship almost anywhere else in the world than to get it in the USA by green card.

Name 5 wealthy countries (let's say top 30 HDI) where this holds outside of the EU.

Uh not really? As a comparison, it is almost impossible to naturalize if you decide to work in the two cited examples (China and KSA).

Also, the green card process very much depends on your nationality.


Did you miss Trump's plan to censor the internet except for party approved propaganda? It was on the front page here a few days ago. The propaganda site will be called freedom.gov.

Idk, I think a much more effective way to destroy the US would be to send armed gangs through the streets and have them kidnap people from their houses at random.

That would cause far more destruction than merely telling people you were doing that without actually doing it.


Law enforcement is not an armed gang. Arrests are not kidnappings. If you're not going to engage in good faith, then don't engage.

The people doing the arresting have no ID and wear masks, arrest people without any evidence, throw them in detention centers and then deny them their legal right to a bond hearing and instead detain them indefinitely. Even someone like you should understand, police are not the judges, they can arrest someone but detaining them for a long period of time requires ascertaining their legal status and offering a chance for bond. The judges also overwhelmingly ruled the same thing, while ICE is directly disobeying their legal orders. If they were law enforcement, they would be following the law not breaking it.

Arresting people solely on the basis of their skin color or having an accent is akin to kidnapping. How many legal residents and citizens are you comfortable with being arrested without a sound legal basis? My number is zero.

What happened to George Retes was not law enforcement

>Law enforcement is not an armed gang

It always has been in America. Literally, the history of policing starts with armed gangs looking for escaped slaves, and never went away from those roots. You can see this in their "us or them" combative mentalities, their utter refusal to hold officers accountable even when obviously guilty, their tactics when governments try to impose rules on them, and everything else they do.


How are they not? They’re definitely armed, so only the “gang” part is questionable. Wikipedia says:

“A gang is a group or society of associates, friends, or members of a family with a defined leadership and internal organization that identifies with or claims control over territory in a community and engages, either individually or collectively, in illegal, and possibly violent, behavior, with such behavior often constituting a form of organized crime.”

I’d say that fits some law enforcement pretty well.


Not everything that's legal is good. One presumes that if it's found to be bad and Congress isn't extremely corrupt (as if) it'll become illegal.

Right-- at which point, companies like Facebook will (hopefully) have to obey the law. But we're not there yet. Currently, people are moralizing at Zuck for not voluntarily killing his own products because they're "obviously harmful."

Now Google has an AI answer at the top with links to sources. This streamlines the process.

Only the corporate web which values quantity over quality. Have you tried Marginalia Search? It's refreshing, although it doesn't index enough stuff to find what you're looking for, most times.

Or it's ahead in not–AI.

Feel free to create an alternative. Keep in mind it's completely illegal and you will get the book thrown at you if you are caught. You will also end up using your captcha page to DDOS people who are trying to unmask you.
