Generally an unmoderated forum for discussion of pretty much any topic. The focus however, is usually politics.

Reacting at all means that we haven't been "Ignored", idiot.

Awww.
, Useless. So much for "Ignored". You fail again. Plus, Useless, you've been busted too many times for anyone to believe you're not reading my posts, anyhow. It's just your excuse for cowering. Awww.

Lots of cars here that used to be common that you've maybe forgotten about. (It's a slide show, but all on one page - sideways flip)
"There were over 160 American car manufacturers in 1919.
That number dropped to about 15 by 1969 and the industry has consolidated at 11 today. Many of the automakers that disappeared during the first part of the 20th century didn't leave a trace."

You've outdone yourself attempting to defend your xenophobic remark and tripled down on stupidity.
Another new low.

Um, I'm of German ancestry.
So if it was racist, I was only insulting my own ancestors.

Self loathing and abuse is your thing?
So be it.

No, because I don't consider "Kraut" to be racist.
And I don't particularly like sauerkraut either.

Oxford and Merriam Webster disagree with you.

If Oxford and Merriam Webster think it's "racist," I'd suggest they're mistaken. German is an ethnic group, not a race. But it was always considered a derogatory name for Germans. Probably won't be too long before they'll have to rename the pickled cabbage they put on hot dogs at the ball park.

Actually you're right. They termed it derogatory not racist.

Thanks. But in consideration of Sluggo's tender feewings, I edited my usage of "Krauts" above to "Arbeitskräfte", which apparently is German for "workers".
I hope everyone is comfy now.

See how easy that is, pussy Useless? You should try it sometime, like when you fuckup the actual meaning of your own "Faux News constituencies".
