To be fair, a lot of (modern) communists would say that the actual communist state has never existed. Most of us would never (for good reasons) give it a try, as what was supposed to be a transition has always ended up as the actual situation. In a purely theoretical situation where it went fullblown communism at once, maybe there would be some goods in there. But once again, I doubt that would ever happen, as some strong person would see a way to take control.

The Prince takes the money from the people to his own good and other rich people. It's simply a massive lack of understanding history if you compare those two. Some people don't like taxes, fair enough, but bad historical analogies are laughable (yes, Robin Hood is a fairytale, but the idea of taxing the poor for living where they live (and maybe a bit for defense) wasn't really unusual).

The Danish coming from a vacation in Lombardia

2 World records and what is the comment from Frederik Rodenberg? "What a bad day!" He's not satisfied with his own riding!

What a semi!

https://www.svt.se/nyheter/lokalt/vast/bekraftat-coronafall-i-goteborg-person-vardas-pa-sahlgrenska Most likely got it in Northern Italy. The first one is rather old but no news on that one,

Oh well. The hospital has checked 16 patients before, all negative. Some checks are actually made

Oh well. 2 persons are being checked for Corona at our local hospital. Maybe I should go shopping before panic breaks out...

Not sure about that one. It would fit into my training, but my weekend schedule is pretty stacked in that period. Ask me a bit later. Then we'll see. If I don't have anything planned, then I guess I'm in.

Don't you start attacking our crown prince! (not that I expect anybody but Danes to hear about his work in IOC and even we hear very little )

Really? That's not what I hear from the Danes in the hotel (though I haven't seen tweets about it for some hours)

Putting an entire hotel with 1000 guests in quarantine.

Only 3 races in 3 days. Tough weather!

Another good old discussion, and really one that's pretty stupid. It's not like Sanders is planning to take money to give to the already rich (mainly himself) like in Robin Hood. If Sanders was some kind of dictator who was only interested in his own, it would be fine. Meanwhile it does to some point explain why he isn't Robin Hood either.

The only thing that I get when searching for Mike Adams and corona is Alex Jones, one of the most far-out conspiracy theorists and hate speakers. He makes Trump seem like a perfectly normal human being. Doesn't make it any better if it's Mike Adams from Natural News. Didn't bother to watch the clip, though.

Has Trump said so? The only politician I've heard going with those rumours is Tom Cotton and he isn't quite the kind of person I listen to. Is it man made? It's not impossible, but unless I hear it from somebody who knows what they talk about (and I doubt that you or me is in that group here). There are plenty of types of corona virus and it's a constant fight with evolution. Until ther's any kind of proof, it'll all be a conspiracy theory and right now the world should be fighting the disease, not eachother on this!

Mustafa Mohamed? He cut 22 minutes compared to his first marathon (back in 2005) where his main focus was the 3000m steeplechase. He cut a little less than 2½ minutes from his former PB.

getting a bit of comments about that in Denmark as well

Indeed. 15 years after his marathon debut the same place. Cut 22 minutes and is now the national record holder in another event

Thijs Nijhuis of as well 2:10:57 Mustafa Mohamed 2:10:03

That is a pretty questionable conclusion. He got about 34% in the first round which is the one you could compare to polling. That's pretty close to the polling averages and a bit lower than FiveThirtyEight's simulated average. Not trying to make it sound like anything but a win and he's still a big favourite for the plurality, but it's pretty much the expected performance. Klobuchar and Steyer should both be very disappointed. Steyer could very well drop out after South Carolina if something big doesn't happen. Meanwhile Klobuchar might very well stay around for Super Tuesday as she is afterall still winning at home (which seems to be a big deal for some candidates). Meanwhile Biden supporters see positive signs in the result, especially the entrance polls giving him good results among blacks. Buttigieg should be pretty positive as well as he got above 15 % (so far at least) in a state that should be much worse for him than the 2 first ones. At last Warren will be hoping that her debate performance will give more in SC as a lot of Nevada votes were cast before the debate and others say they decided long ago.

And yet you're among those commenting all the time in this thread?

Thank god I live in Denmark. No signing up needed to get to vote

Oh dear...
