Is this sentence offensive?
"Sure, just no subway this time, they replaced the turkey on my sandwich last week with pork and explaining why I cant eat pork repeatedly is exhausting thats why I gave it to you"
Its supposed to be coming from a muslim just casually talking to their roommate while leaving work and they were just asked if they wanted to pick up dinner before heading home. Im not a muslim, so I dont want to be offensive or anything.

Why is Michael Jordan more popular than other GOATs like Wayne Gretzky and Babe Ruth and Pele and Muhammad Ali?
Favourite answer:First, note how that fame was gained.....note those who are still propping up that fame today...
Notice that the answers are the same?
For all his greatness as a player (and he was, in my opinion, one of the greatest American athletes of all time), his "cross-over" fame was very much a result of the growing influence of the mega-media corporations and their partnership with other mega-corporations.
When Jordan first turned pro in 1984, there were over 200 independent media companies in the USA alone.... By the time Jordan won his final championship with the Bulls in 1998, six mega-media companies controlled over 90% of everything seen, heard and read in print, on radio and on TV...
By controlling what Americans watched, these companies controlled what Americans bought...and companies like Nike turned Jordan into a full-line "lifestyle." It wasn't just about T-shirts and jerseys, people wanted to wear what Mike wore on the golf course and to the supermarket...they wanted his sunglasses and his Kangol hats.
Jordan established the concept of "branding" now common among athletes that represent themselves first, their endorsed products second, their agencies third and their teams a distant fourth.....maybe....
And that part brings us to the "why do they STILL push him" question... Look around at what the league, ESPN and the nature of "celebrity athletes" has become. By pushing "style" for decades they have completely run out of substance...and the vapid, image-based culture of today simply cannot connect to today's athletes in the same way.
So Nike and ESPN push Jordan because Jordan continues to sell their products....and one reason his name still sells is because he had the game to back it up.

Yes or No. Is it OK with you having a liar for a president? ?
Proven lie. Trump downplaying the coronavirus. He said it was no worse than flu, but told Bob Woodward it was five times as bad. Proven lie. He told us he was rich. His Tax returns prove otherwise. Proven lie. Said he did not call John McCain a loser.

Why do blacks cause 50% of homicides in America if they only make up 13% of the population?
Favourite answer:Oh, that's easy. According to idiotic and patronizing left, the 5 million problems of the "Black Community" are the fault of the "Evil White Man". Apparently, the "Evil White Man"makes the Blacks extremely violent and and makes them have babies like it's going out of style. And, additionally, makes the STUDS, abandon their 17- 26 children

The US is a shìt show. Time to leave?
There's 190 million whites. Half of them are homosexuals and feminists.
There's 40 million blacks. Most of them are in prison, on parole, on drugs, and committing crimes. They usually sell drugs on the side and increase costs of medical care, and all that.
There's 40 million Hispanics. Most of them are construction workers that sell drugs on the side. They help spread the opiod epidemic, run up the cost of medical care and increase the crime rates indirectly through their drug dealing businesses.
Then there's the Asians. They're mainly quiet, work hard, study hard, do good in school, and get lucrative engineering and tech jobs.

Is this Coronavirus pandemic really Trump's fault?
I'm a conservative person myself, so I tend to challenge liberals when they put Trump down. But I do have a hard time disagreeing with them when they say this pandemic is Trump's fault. Because think about it, we have the HIGHEST infection rate IN THE WORLD. And what's bad is that cases still keep spiking 'til this day. This country is doing the worst job handling this pandemic, which is pretty shameful. And who is the leader of this country? Trump! So maybe he is to blame.
So it Trump really to blame for this pandemic? If Biden wins, do you think things will get better?
