I just read that the Indian government told it’s citizens to leave Pakistan if they’re there. Isn’t India a close partner to China? Would India see this in a negative light?

Blackrock owns the most shares too 🤡

Particularly as the systems get more and more sophisticated at hypnotizing

This sounds dreamy

It’ll be right before the false flag attack used to justify repression of dissent

Even more correct: most of the US government supports genocide, and don’t care that their constituents don’t.

It’s a logical conclusion from quack, imo. It’s the second thing that came to my mind after the obvious ‘oh duh cause he’s Russias agent’

Totally. The idea being that you’ll just take whatever bullshit in the meantime because you get to vote for the controlled opposition party every 4 years.

Party of the rich vs party of the wealthy

Wild. I’ve read starship troopers but didn’t know all this about him.

The general online labeling of Heinlein as a kind of fascism idealizer (due to the popularity of that book) begins to fall apart when you view him as an author who experimented with different forms of governance in his world building.

I wonder which US state most closely resembles this. Probably in the NE

Yeah, preposterous bills written with no intention to actually pass have been part of the game for quite some time.

I guess the crazy part is that now you have to check up on them.

I think the other hand is telling every other appendage to make a bunch of noise while it loots the country to answer your question.

I think it was CS Lewis that said that ultimately, the only expression of free will is to choose to love God.

Most of the core questions of life are answered paradoxically. If there was a simple answer, the questions would need not be asked.

I’d like to take the part of the baby churning plan where a homemaker is part of each household. Like, subtract the misogyny where it’s automatically assumed it would be the woman but households with children take a lot of work.

One of lessons of the Bible (from what I gather anyway) is that all humans are corrupt-able and will err. Therefore, all organizations that wield any power at all are subject to human corruption. Indeed, this is how we think of organizations in a secular light.

If you’re looking for the religious teachings or church organizations that are free from the sins they denounce, you won’t find them, because human beings cannot keep themselves from temptation indefinitely.

I’m asking why as a country, a state, or a community anyone would want illegal immigration

I think you’re already there but the illegal immigrants are here because corporations benefit from the desperate cheap labor. Both parties largely turn a blind eye to the trickle and talk and talk about what to do. I’ve yet to see a proposal where corporations or their leadership face consequences if they’re found to be employing illegal immigrants.

I totally agree with your take on how deportations don’t help.

To play both sides, a lot of immigrants choose to work here for low wages in order to send money back to their families from their home country. They endure horrible conditions and don’t expect much social mobility. Their families usually come from countries hurt by neo capitalism so I get why rekorse criticizes their role as being morally dubious for the citizens of the host country.

it’s better than a poke in the eye.

Idk why but this comment made me want to watch something with witty British humor and endearing characters

Definitely the party leaders who consistently outperform the S and P

The material wealth is cool and all, but theres a shame and guilt that comes with being complicit in certain atrocities as well as the denial of material wealth to the citizens of many of the countries which we economically colonize.

And for an increasing number of people, the material wealth part is fading. Then there’s the illusion of democratic participation to which more people are beginning to become cognizant of. Oh boy.

The people that countries pay to pretend to be normal everyday users in order to spread state propaganda?

Edit: in this case ‘both’ refers to the image particularly portraying two countries
