I don't really care who makes it so no worries Helgo; only American I think could do it is Orange Wizard who's got a religion megathread with no casualties

He's a kiwi, isn't he?

If only we had some kind of quarantine thread where people could go to yell about immigration and other...various nonsense.

*applauds politely*

I think a full on containment board is called for, we don't want the quarantine thread coming off the rails.

-snip-
I don't mean any disrespect, but somehow I doubt that you're the right guy for the job... Ideally the OP should stay somewhat distanced from the discussion.

Maybe we should get one of the Americans to do it. smj, would you be up for that?

I don't know, it's the Europe thread, one of you European guys should be the one to make it.

@Baffler:
Yes.  This sounds like a good idea.

I think that we can all agree that what we should actually do is use the North Korea Thread to discuss Europe, after all, Finland is only one country away from North Korea.

A controversial topics board? That's just asking for trouble.

And so we come back around to Zoroastrianism.

This thread could use a new purpose - maybe the new Best Korea thread now that the European thread has invaded that one; maybe a European international relations thread.

Okay, since this is now the North Korea thread, the North Korean navy recently met with failure while testing a new submarine-based missile. They don't have a submarine capable of launching such missiles yet, apparently, but if they did, we can at least rest assured that they don't have the technology to deploy them.

No. Religion is the opiate of the masses, comrade. Our glorious Juche is the only faith ideology anyone could need.

I think I am lost. Is this the American election thread? Or did I miss a turn?
