    There is over capacity of European invaders coming to the Americas. Please stop.
    Europe: Sure we will stop just like you say and let your 200 million native inhabitants live peacefully with your resourceful land.

  2. Having read the comments here I can only assume that the majority of people are either Chinese, or bots. Has anyone bought Chinese made products recently? Shocking doesn’t come close, poor quality materials, poorly designed, poorly made, whatever the product, it doesn’t matter, they all have zero credibility once unpacked. So they can’t make a tin opener that works properly but we’re supposed to believe this?

    NASA:hey,china,the days you could easily explore the dark side of the moon are over.give me the lunar soil.
    china:if you want it,then you'll have to take it
    .but you already knew that.
    NASA:i hadn't the feeling you'd say that.
    china:how many times have we interacted.
    NASA:hard to say.it's just the Wolf Amendment stops scientific communication
