>>87163992
Fairly sure Megan Fox and that chick from The Bing Bazinga Theory had to pay their ex-husband's alimony. It's all about who has more money.

I'm waiting for George Clooney to get legally fucked up the arse by his LAWYER WIFE should that marriage fall apart.

He got divorced and has money problems. His venture in the gaming industry is fun to watch.

It wasn't a meme when he got married though.

He's had to watch his homeland slowly die over the last 60 years.

lol, look at the perturbed look on that ABC reporter's cunt face.

>>87164860
There was a time when he was probably to the conventional left and fine with some of the policies that lead to this happening. Which is probably why he's bitter about it. It's kind of like his marriage in that he thought he was going to get a sweet and happy deal and ended up fucked over and having to pay through the nose for it.

After all, nobody hates leftwing orthodoxy more than ex-lefties who've come to realize what a fucking delusion it all is.

>>87163408

I bet Clooney didn't want kids because there already are too many people in the world or some dumb reason like taht

>>87165280
He was just trying to avoid paying even larger alimony for child support once they inevitably divorce.

>>87165280
Yea and then he would have had to pay A L I M O N Y

>>87165276
Of course I do. I also realize they're a complete non-entity to the point they might as well not exist. Being a leftist who suddenly breaks rank and says enabling what is essentially non-European colonization of major cities is a bad thing will kill your clout with the leftwing establishment in virtually any Western leftwing party that calls itself such. I wouldn't be an ex-leftie if it were possible to be anti-mass immigration in a leftwing party as anything but a pariah.

>>87164054
They have twins now and no breakup

He's like my favorite British comedian. Is any of his new material good?

>>87163408
He's the only man in the world who can't fuck his daughters. I'd be a little pissed as well.

Oh wait, are you implying that liberals are leftists as well? Because otherwise I don't see any actual relevant "leftwing establishment" existing. Read some Zizek, my friend.

>>87165990
How much power does a prenup hold these days?

>>87165932
As long as contemporary leftists fall in line with the same ideas liberals have when it comes to unfettered immigration and European cultural masochism, then there's not much use in differentiating them on those topics.

Your '50s era socialist parties are dead and gone and they're not coming back. Zizek is irrelevant. Take one look at Labour and try and say with a straight face that it isn't the British political embodiment of the same platforms turning European cities into MENA colonies. The further to the left you go with the parties the worse it gets. There's absolutely no relevant mass of leftwingers opposing mass immigration in any way in the UK. If you happen to be leftwing and are opposed to it then you can count on being denied any support or platform and you will be equated to the furthest reaches of the right for simply suggesting it.

>>87164403
This hit to close to home. At least I didn't lose money, other than thousands of dollars to "the man must pay for everything" meme.

>>87166069
You should assume none. Don't marry. It's a meme and you will get fucked, whether she divorces you and takes all your things that she isn't entitled to in any way, or not. Total meme. Don't do it. No Christian society means you don't get married. No shame in divorce means you get fucked - it's highly likely.

>>87166143
You're not wrong here and I get what you're saying. I'll still be one of the few left then.

>>87166198
>No shame in divorce means you get fucked - it's highly likely.
I didn't even realize this now. Society at large used to frown upon divorce and broken homes. These days it's practically encouraged to leave your spouse even if you have children, because even if you're overreacting to something trivial that you can both work through, you "deserve to be happy". If you're a woman.

What actual incentive does a man have to marry besides social pressure and feeling like they have to?

>>87166315
>What actual incentive does a man have to marry besides social pressure and feeling like they have to?
I don't know. Love, maybe?

>>87166315
>What actual incentive does a man have to marry besides social pressure and feeling like they have to?
Wanting to keep his society stable so it doesn't get flooded by foreigners at the behest of naive morons?

>>87166369
Pfft.

You can love someone without marriage. It's just an excuse for the girl to be the center of attention for a day and celebrate her newfound excuse for letting herself go with a big fat slice of cake.

>>87166369
What does marriage have to do with love?

>>87166198
Marriage was a contract, it ensured that the man would provide and the woman would remain faithful and loyal.

Now the courts have decided that even if the woman does not remain faithful and loyal, even if the two are no longer married, the man will provide.

Doesn't seem fair, does it?

Because he walks through London and it's like being in the Middle East.

>>87166069
Prenups are fucking ironclad. The only thing a prenup doesn't protect you from is shit you decide to leave off the prenup.

Even if you're living with your spouse you should have a fucking prenup because in some countries common-law falls under the same rules are marriage.

People say it's cold but I think nothing is more desirable in a spouse than someone who doesn't want to get fucked over or someone who isn't retarded enough to believe romance is always pure.

He's right. Marriage is a Christian and religious institution. Marry a non Christian (including retarded women who are Christian in name only) and marriage is a secular legal contract and the woman WILL treat it as such. Women are constantly told on TV divorce is exciting and empowering if they are bored or don't think you look or earn enough to impress their friends its over.

There is a point where it becomes cheaper and more convenient to resort to murder than to pay alimony, and that point is 20,000 dollars. That is the price of a human life. This man could have hired me to kill his bitch and he would be 20 million dollars richer. He could have paid some nigger off the street 1000 dollars to do her in and then payed another nog 1000 dollars in drugs to kill the other nog so no one would know how his wife died. He could have done so many things to kill his wife. I mean sure it sounds edgy but 20 millions dollars is probably worth it.

- I think you have a great eye for Ukrainian culture. What do you make of Ukrainian culture now? Particularly after the riots that we've seen.
- I'm not... I'm not sure what's going on in Ukraine. Let me say... I don't know what's going on in Kyiv. Because Kyiv is no longer a Ukrainian city and that's why they got the Eurovision. I mean they said we're the most cosmpolitan city but it doesn't feel Ukrainian. I had a Moldovan friend come over two months ago, walk down a Khreshchatyk and said "Where are all the Ukrainian people?". I mean, I love having different cultures around but when the parent culture kind of... dissipates, um... You're left thinking... "What's going on?"

I think he suffers from a sense that you have to play fair in life. He's a very intelligent guy. But I think he has a very old fashioned sense of "properness" (despite everything they did in Python) that will just get you killed now. Trump is very very improper, but in this day and age, that's what gets results. You beat your enemy at their own filthy game. Playing fair gets you a 20 million dollar ass-fucking in a divorce. It puts you in a seven year hell.

Cleese would get destroyed in politics and business. He'd be an easy mark.

But I think he's a good guy. He's right about Brexit. He doesn't understand Trump.

The nature of Leftist philosophy (the Group > the Individual) means that if a Leftist goes against the group’s dogma, he is an outcast and ostracized even if he still agrees with other aspects of Leftist philosophy.

Rightwing philosophy, being based on the idea of the Individual > the Group, allows and even encourages debate.
