IMO the God of the old testament represents an effort to illustrate that the laws of nature are harsh & unforgiving.
Gravity doesn't give a shit about how much you want to fly or how good your intentions are. If you do not accept that you have to work within the constraints of reality, then reality will crush you. Plagues & floods & economic catastrophes happen, or are most destructive, when people have not properly learned from those who came before them, or when people simply refuse to see the warning signs.
The lesson of Noah & others is that sometimes there are people who see things you cannot see. There are a lot of people today who have been warning of the coming monetary disaster. A disaster that is inevitable because there are people in powerful positions who insist on trying to defy the laws of economics. Unfortunately, most of the world won't listen, & when it happens many of the normies will probably blame the very people who tried to warn them.
If your idea of truth comes from human authority then you will be wrecked right along with everyone else. If your idea of truth extends from your own efforts to develop some independent understanding of reality no matter what other people think, then you are more likely to hear what others have to say, & to recognize the warning signs, so your chances are better.

I think that was by design. I have heard rumors that students believed people were being brought in for the protests & that the protestors weren't students at all.

I think there is a purposeful effort to confuse zionism with Jewish people as a whole so that right wing neocons might feel free to call any opposition the current Israeli genocide racist, the same way the left has been trained see any disagreement with their own postitions as racism or bigotry.
The goal is to destroy all capacity for nuance in the minds of the masses. If people cannot communicate with each other because they have been poisoned against hearing or understanding the language used by others, then everyone becomes easier to manipulate.
Well, it has been obvious for a long time that they only ever wanted superficial diversity so long as everyone was really the same. They'll call a black guy with a conservative thought an uncle tom at the drop of a hat. They just want multicolor NPCs.
Why is it always the same stupid idea?

This is true, but the GME people are fighting a losing game.
Idk who needs to hear this, but you can't fight criminals via the channels they set up for you to fight them.
He was trying to assure me that he understands bitcoin all too well & that gold is really the only way forward.
He was also arguing that Bitcoin isn't worth anything and that gold is the only possible way forward. If he didn't think Bitcoin was worth anything, why buy $5 worth, why hold for 10+ years through multiple long bear markets, why not sell during any of the previous price pumps and take his ponzi winnings...? Even in the off chance that he really did know someone interested in Bitcoin that early on & he really did buy only 20 from that person for some undisclosed reason, he clearly doesn't understand Bitcoin which was what his early involvement was supposed to prove.
I just had a guy say, "I bought 20 bitcoin back in 2010, and sold them when it hit $49,000."
Bitch, in 2010 it would have cost you more to transfer dollars to MtGox than you would have spent buying 20 bitcoin. No one bought $5 worth of bitcoin in 2010... stfu
Sacrificing truth & reality with family as the excuse is like selling your kids into future slavery to protect your own comfort right now, while claiming your kids are your real concern.
Op_cat & things like it are not particularly helpful & open doors to attack bitcoin. They will not be added. The tools currently available have not been properly put to use.
