Re: COVID is ALL BUT OVER.

Exactly the inner-city public school response that's expected. For midwits like you, WW2 started on Sep. 1, 1939 for no reason, and with no background. Treaty of Versailles, Weimar Germany, devaluation of currency, atrocities in Poland and Sudetenland. Did you learn about these crucial historical e...

That and the West directly sent Stalin armaments, vehicles, etc. One of those things they "forget' to teach in school.

Re: "Escape From The North" job ad

Lots of things. That’s why few stay, and even fewer go in the first place. That seems to be an impossibility. If you look at the population distribution of our country, it should make perfect sense. I suspect that what Digits was alluding to was that it's a practical impossibility for a few people ...
