The revolution started because the brits made tea cheaper but some colonial merchants got squeezed out. We would all be much better off if they never revolted, and got their independence a little bit later like Canada.

Consensus is really only practical in small groups
Not at all, that's the whole point of a republic, it's consensus based.
You're literally the only one talking about buying it, and it's not YOUR software, it belongs to Microsoft. Your boss just rents it and makes a profit having you work on it.
Signals??? You mean the turn reminder? Because i use it to remind people i already started turning a second ago.
Ex-Americans are suing America to get back some of the money they paid to renounce their citizenship
Well yeah, i couldn't make a lawsuit in my hometown or in a different country without a lawyer either. Yes, you get a lawyer and they file a lawsuit in the appropriate court, whether it's your home country or a foreign country. Yes, the process will be different but it doesn't matter which country youre a citizen of.
NY woman who fatally shoved singing coach, age 87, is sentenced to more time in prison than expected
If someone pisses you off and you intend to kill them and you do
That's murder. Listen man, you obviously never studied criminal law, just read the wiki on manslaughter. The whole point of voluntary manslaughter is you intentionally assault someone but didn't mean for them to die. If you did something negligent, (make a turn in a car without looking) and kill someone, that's involuntary manslaughter, aka negligent homicide.

Yes, the thing you and I both read: "A person who causes the death of another person through negligence"
Shoving someone on purpose is not negligence. It's a voluntary, intentional act. Hence, voluntary manslaughter, in Sweden called Dråp.
NY woman who fatally shoved singing coach, age 87, is sentenced to more time in prison than expected
That's exactly the manslaughter part. She voluntarily shoved her, which is a crime, with the unintended consequence of homicide.
If she intended to kill her, that would rise to murder.

Court jurisdiction can become a really complicated question, but citizenship of the parties has nothing to do with it. If a court has jurisdiction, doesn't matter if the plaintiffs reside on Mars.

I mean, it's like asking how can you order food in a restaurant of a different country you're not a citizen of? Like, you might not be familiar with the topic but you're assuming some limitation that makes no sense and doesn't exist.

The court has jurisdiction regardless of what country the plaintiffs are from.
Try filing a police complaint in the US, see how long you go without falling into a stop and frisk.
