Gen-X humanitarian 7-Fundamental-Tenets atheist ¡NGNM! USN flight-deck / Seabee vet ¡BTDT! John-Locke Age-of-Enlightenment liberal ("libertarian"), for individual freedom and independence. Not "Twentieth Century Liberal," big-government neoliberal socialists of the "Illiberal Left." Grow Freedom! End the Fed!

The West is made up of a great many cultural backgrounds, few of which were colonizers, most were immigrants, some are civilized.

Why do #fake Pakistani and Afghan #asylum #seekers randomly and repeatedly film young #European girls?

They are sending messages to their friends back in Pakistan and Afghanistan showing them all of the easy targets in Europe.

They also tell their friends about the free housing, free food, free money, free cell phones. They invite them all to Europe because European leaders are so stupid and pay for it all.

They are extremely oppressed, girls have been hidden from them all of their lives. I wouldn't trust them to know how to behave appropriately towards women outside of Islam, where they are chattel slaves in regards to sexuality, and girls like these would be flogged to death in public.

Does this confirm the existence of spirits?

A lot of old news in this, the world moves fast. Argentina is not joining BRICS, they elected a libertarian.

Saw this on my way down. Kept scrolling. Came back up to agree.

In 2000 Bill Joy wrote an article entitled, “Why the Future Doesn’t Need Us”. it was published in Wired magazine.

Californian technologistas are sometimes very pessimistic and often very bad at predicting the future.

There’s no reason to believe that the future has to be a bad one or that any of the tools that are being invented now are going to be the tools that destroy mankind.

Over and over again dire predictions about how technologies are going to end mankind, will cause terrible catastrophes and other fear porn guff have been trotted out again and again; it’s always by the same class of people who are more or less the same age. They are super pessimistic, un religious, ignorant, normally super rich and desperate to control other people.

These people need to be ignored. First of all, spreading unwarranted FUD is unethical (AnthropogenicGlobal Warming for example), second there’s no technology that man has inside computers that can’t be switched off, even if it were to become a problem, which there’s no evidence that AGI is going to be.

The choice everybody faces is whether we’re going to live like a bunch of frightened children, or are we going to live like men and go to the stars and do all those other things.

If everybody’s frightened of every single invention that comes forward and goes into the market, man will never get anywhere, and I’m personally sick and tired of reading the fear from people who don’t have powerful imaginations and to want everything to stay the same forever.

These same people are terrified of bitcoin and they’re very very scared that if it gets big, deflation will happen and the economy will be destroyed.

Of course they’re totally wrong. Bitcoin is not dangerous and the fear mongers will be ignored.

However this is a perfect example of how these technologists who are scaremongers don’t really understand what they’re talking about, are men of low degree and low character and are antihuman.

It’s up to the people who create things to do things responsibly and to not let inventions get out of their labs that are dangerous. Sometimes bad things are going to happen, but the greater risk is to not do things, not experiment and not move forward.

The fact of the matter is the future doesn’t need YOU. And that’s YOUR problem, not OURS.

"Everything is going to start moving too fast!", they said, when the wheel was invented.

It has become so weird that the US Right supports Israel’s war on Palestine while the US Left supports Ukraine’s defense against Russia.

Political sides dig in. The wars become associated with culture.

There is so little voice today from those who oppose aggression. Those who support Jews but are not onboard with Israel’s actions against Palestinians. Those who support Ukrainian independence but don’t want to commit unlimited troops for border regions that literally speak Russian amid a complicated history.

More people die in Sudan and Cambodia than Israel/Palestine, but we are all focused on Israel/Palestine because it’s a conflict of cultures. Religious cultures but also western imperialism vs the global south. The focus of it all. That occupies our attention even as bigger massacres occur elsewhere that aren’t directly across these massive fault lines.

I refuse to engage in attention whoring. I support peace in most instances globally, other than total war against someone’s existence where it becomes right to fight back. People have a right to self-defense. And those who have power over others have a responsibility to hold back on using it fully.

Keep in mind that at any moment, tons of violence is occurring globally. The media directs you to a subset of it that is geographically, economically, or culturally relevant for their purposes. You ignore or are unaware of the rest, and get emotional about what is fed to you. That’s how most people act, anyway.

How "progressive" we are, supporting both sides of a primitive barbaric religous war on the other side of our planet, as if we need something more to be so absurdly antisocial and violently divided about in our socialist democrazy here at home.

The Department of Education has been dumbing down America's education system, to be more inclusive, since 1979. Prior to that, a GED was plenty for most labor jobs, a high school diploma was much more challenging to achieve, and we had one of the best education systems in the world. Now, everyone gets a high school diploma and goes to college, and we rank something like 24th in the world in science, 38th in math, and dead last, as far as I can tell, in history, because we're repeating a proven failure system of government. How "progressive."

The 16th AMD's human capital stock, minions, living vicariously through celebrities of mindless entertainment, while toiling away for a massive, oppressive, corrupt, one-size-fits-all socialist New Deal, and a Great Society of money-pit middlemen bureaucrats with domain over their bodies, legislating over every aspect of their lives, working for less-and-less while politicians keep raising the ceiling over their heads, on a house of cards that will inevitably come crashing down on them, or their children, in a central bank's debt-driven, charge-it-forward ponzi economy, and an absurdly antisocial society, violently divided into riotous and insurrectionist tribal lobbies to fight the 17th AMD's mob-rule cultural warfare over rights and benefits from a big (2nd largest in the world between communists China and Russia), morally and financially bankrupt government, with a hyperinflated fiat currency, backed by the war machine of a military industrial complex, with artificial interest rates set by international oligarch bankers who fund all sides of wars, and control governments through central banks, propped on globalists markets by strongarming imperialistic third world puppet regimes to trade its people's resources to the world in their fiat currency, in the globalists' vicious cycle of hyperinflation of fiat currencies and world-war resets, as they anxiously await the outbreak of the WW3 reset any day now. How "progressive."

Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely" (Acton).

I would trust street vigilance before I'd trust the government with capital punishment.

Bear in mind that it was the leftist/"progressive"/"liberals" who reformed the American Experiment of a minimalistic, noninterventionist, Pro-Minding-Its-Business republic, and free-market capitalist economy, to be the 16th AMD's human capital stock, toiling away for their massive, oppressive, corrupt, one-size-fits-all socialist New Deal, and their Great Society of money-pit middlemen bureaucrats with domain over our bodies, legislating over every aspect of our lives! How "progressive!"

Chickens come home to roost, mutherfuckers.

Well, if that were true, there wouldn't be murder. What is true, though, is that innocent people have been capitally punished, and there's no undoing that.

Post Jim Crow, "progressive" reform Republicans. The Bushes embraced it, but the globalist doctrine of third world imperialism is straight out of the left, a direct product of Woodrow Wilson's Federal Reserve Act. By the time Daddy Dubya took office, we already had a hyperinflated fiat currency, backed by a military industrial complex, with artificial interest rates set by international oligarch bankers who fund all sides of wars, and control governments through central banks, propped on globalists' markets by strongarming imperialistic third world puppet regimes to trade their people's oil to the world in USD.

Perma-banned from Facebook and Twitter for saying the world will be a better place when the Christians, Muslims, and Jews finish killing each other.

Was I wrong?

Yep! Gen X was the first to feel the brunt of the Nixon Shock, and each generation has worked for less-and-less since then. How "progressive." No worries, Biden promised to be "the most 'progressive' POTUS in history," and we're feeling that WW3 reset any day now...

Men and women are not created equal, and should not be treated as such. This "progression" towards "equality" is the 16th AMD's human capital stock fighting the 17th AMD's mob-rule cultural warfare over rights and benefits from our massive, oppressive, corrupt, one-size-fits-all socialist New Deal, and its Great Society of money-pit middlemen bureaucrats with domain over our bodies, legislating over every aspect of our lives, giving us so much to 'vote' about, in such an absurdly antisocial society, violently divided into riotous and insurrectionist tribal lobbies. We should celebrate our differences. Instead we've emasculated the labor market, and demeaned the homemaker. Who has herded women into the human capital stockyards? "The problem with socialism is that eventually you run out of other people's money" (Margaret Thatcher), and the socialists need everybody toiling away, each generation working for less-and-less, while "progressive" politicians keep raising the ceiling over our heads, on a house of cards that will inevitably come crashing down on us, or "our Children," in our Federal Reserve's debt-driven, charge-it-forward ponzi economy. How "progressive." Our sense of community has been displaced by bureaucracy, and these days everybody is some type of toxic -ist.

This is not to suggest that there were no flaws in our founding, certainly the American Experiment had its share of those. Women could not own land, had to give their earnings to their husbands, limited education opportunities and job market... all blatant and undeniable human rights violations. And they were all fixed without bureaucracy. They were all resolved by movements of The People, rallying around an idea who's time had come. Like unions fighting for better workers rights, like the 8-hour workday and 40-hour workweek, during the first industrial revolution in the early 1800s, nearly a century before we had a Department of Labor. "I have never had a vote, and I have raised hell all over this country. You don't need a vote to raise hell! You need convictions and a voice!" —Mary Harris "Mother" Jones.

"Such democracies have ever been spectacles of turbulence and contention, have ever been found incompatible with personal security or the rights of property, and have in general been as short in their lives as they have been violent in their deaths. Theoretic politicians who have patronized this species of government have erroneously supposed that by reducing mankind to a perfect equality in their political rights, they would at the same time be perfectly equalized and assimilated in their possessions, opinions, and passions." —James Madison, 1787.

Capitalism is "profit driven" as much as anything else. Certainly no less than the money-pit middlemen bureaucrats of socialism. The true motivating characteristic of capitalism is supply and demand. Just like Bitcoin.
