Same for all "security" agencies, govt "education," govt "defense," govt "intelligence" agencies (which actively spread misinformation to keep people stupid), & any other govt program or department.
Forced funding creates an inverted morality where the program or department exists at the expense of others, not to their benefit. No matter the original intent, the nature of forced funding always corrupts whatever it funds.
When there is real concern for what is beneficial to others then voluntary funding is the only way to ensure others are served rather than subjugated & deceived.
A better future requires #bitcoin & #agorism to defeat forced funding & censorship proof networks ( #nostr & #keet ) to defeat their propaganda
Trump is demonstrating that it's extremely easy to make peace. All real obstacles come from within the US & Israel.
These two are just great
I am not against regulations; I am against the goons that empower themselves to enforce regulations.
People can regulate the products & services of any company any time they want by simply not buying what they are selling.
Who we talking bout? What'd I miss?
It's weaponizing the fiat system to bet against the fiat system. I have a hard time being too mad about it.
While there are a lot of scammers selling BS out there, I could put together an extremely useful course on trading, investing, & risk management, but I probably wouldn't give it away for free either 🤷♂ I'd probably charge more than $20 tho.
Sure, living in accordance with reality requires constant vigilance against our own preconceived notions.
You can see fear in most people when you bring up topics where the reality is a fairly obvious thing that most people don't want to see. You are correct that they do not think about things, but they make an actual effort to avoid thinking about them because they see the thoughts as evil or destructive or some such nonsense. It's an active evasion that generally produces angry reactions over trivial things.
There are actually stories about this very phenomenon from scammy marketing semenars. People go looking for some miracle solution to some problem, some guy in audience asks the obvious question that invalidates everything being said, many in audience buy the product anyway. When asked why they purchased, they say they wanted the "solution" to all of their problems & they knew if they went home & thought too much about what the "negative" audience member had said they would lose their motivation. They want their belief to change reality. Most people are actively lying & evading reality & they all have a dim awareness of what they are doing.
I guess maybe it requires spending some time on what actually is "belief," but I don't think most people actually believe the nonsense they spout. I think they believe they are suppose to believe certain things. Or they WANT to believe certain things, because the implications of the alternatives terrify them. But they work to manipulate others into supporting the bad ideas almost as though they can change reality by doing so. If others "believe" with them they can at least feel like they are hiding from reality.
I say laugh when you genuinely find something funny. Exhausting BS isn't funny. And when you've heard it 1000+ times then you've had lots of time to come up with a simple intelligent response.
The code is open & there is no central point of control. The CIA wouldn't create a money they can't control.
Miners don't emit CO2 & the climate scam was created to justify taxing & controlling all life & production.
Monetary network effects are very different from social media network effects.
Dismiss nonsense with a proper simple explanation & tell them that when they are ready to learn you are happy to help or to point them in the right direction.
The derisive laugh, implying no explanation is needed, represents an exceptional sort of intellectual & cultural low.
So you don't think that people call others unkind or "grandma killers" or otherwise engage in emotional responses when certain topics come up in order to manipulate others?
When you hide what you really believe in order to manage the reaction of others, you are submitting to emotional manipulation.
I don't know how to say it any dumber than that.
All forms of slavery & prison camps are among the worst of human creations, but it does seem pretty clear that some in the Jewish community have worked to magnify the atrocities committed against them in a way that allows them justify an ethnostate, similar abuses of people with different beliefs, & censorship, among other destructive policies.
When you allow the cowardice of those around you to dictate the way you express what you believe, you are enslaving yourself to their erroneous perceptions in an effort to manage their emotions for them. Don't do it.
If progress stalls do not be afraid to take rest days. Rest is necessary. Stimulate different muscle groups on alternating days if necessary.
Diet is 90% of the equation. Cut out the carbs, grains, msg, sweeteners, thickeners, & veg oils. Stop consuming alcohol. Focus primarily on eating plenty of meat & eggs. Expect a few weeks of carb withdrawal & gut disruption, most normie "food" is basically drugged. The withdrawal is pretty rough.
In my experience, a significant portion of the people working for said institutions only joined in an effort to acquire some level of respect that they could never have obtained on their own. It is unfortunate that so many people are or have been fooled by such things.
It's the same with people & a healthy society. We just have to get the govt & other parasites out of the way.
A leaderless & unelected bureaucracy is currently trying to start another war (which may lead to WW3) at everyone else's expense.
