It’s 2024 and I am sill waiting for internet people to define what “stealing the 2020 election” means exactly, so that we can prove to the intransigent question-askers that whatever it is didn’t happen.

You don’t need a psychic, you need to move.

Turns out that the Secret Service has plans in place to deal with Trump being jailed - note that this would be for contempt (attacking jurors/judge/etc with his posts) : https://abcnews.go.com/US/secret-services-prepares-potential-trump-contempt-order-hush/story?id=109542824

In all the crusades (if memory serves) there were a number of incidents where Christian towns were attacked and sacked, and Jewish areas in towns were burned/sacked/destroyed. And People's Crusade was what got the elites moving.

It goes some way to expelling the myth that we need immigration to boost the economy, and expelling the myth that uncontrolled immigration isn't a drain on society.

I can't imagine not getting believers upset with anything I bray here but ( in my best will smith voice ) daaaaaaamn ! In some of my research into paranormal I've met poor souls this messed up, does it count as metal illness? I mean they live lives have jobs, etc

And this "lets' settle for less" attitude is why India stagnated for centuries, and was conquered by Muslims who unrelentingly massacred the Hindu population for 500 years. There is a place and a reason for all things under heaven, or so the saying goes. Even for desires. Enlightenment isn't everything, in fact, it may not be enough. The bad side of an ascetic life is that it encourages you to tolerate poverty and deprivation instead of bettering your lot in life. It tells you "don't be materialist", but it is in times of prosperity that religion flourishes. Religion is always the enemy, because it is inevitably some "wise guy" telling you to make do with less while he makes do with the "more" you supply him.

The so-called People's Crusade was part of the First Crusade, and not a very successful part at that. As the saying goes: A pile of logs is not a house, and an unruly mob is not an army.

Transparency issues.

Saints fan?

I'm sure this man agrees with you. He's struggling to say "foreigners" in an acceptable way:

The rest of the world should take their cues from the Mossad in dealing with these evildoers.

101 UN staff killed out of 130,000 in Gaza. That's a death rate of 0.77%. Extrapolate that to the population and you get 17,000 dead. And that's on the assumption the IDF are no less likely to target UN workers than they are anyone else. Hamas was only estimated to have 20-25000 members before the war.

What do you call people who attack police? How much?

No at all. Diehard Conservative, but not these current ignorant UKIPers who are trashing democracy. Liz Truss as PM, Boris Johnson as PM, Rishi Sunak as PM, Suella Braverman as Home Sec, Nadine Dories as Culture Sec, Grant Shapps rotated through many roles- so many Tory's holding posts they are completely unsuitable for. In fact, it is as if they were put in post just for a laugh, except the laugh is on the UK.

Look at this flag-waving ignoramus. He probably doesn't know that St George's mum was a Palestinian and they also celebrate St George's Day:

May the little guy finally rest in peace. My God, what a world.

If some moderately wealthy business people merely satisfy their authentic needs rather than multiple imaginary desires, then good for them. They are not bound to have addiction disorders and potential for psychological suffering. However this does not mean the rest, especially the middle and lower classes are immune to the temptations impressed on them by various ads in social media, billboards, tv and cinema, magazines and newspapers and brochures, endorsements by successful celebrities. Desires are also generated by comparison, so if the neighbor has a brand new luxury car, desires for the same will be generated in oneself so as to keep up and not to look bad in comparison. If I am a capitalist selling branded watches, it would be good for my profits if the same customer is impressed to buy a few dozen of my watches even if only one is needed for his or her practical purpose. Good marketing psychology and tactics and salesmanship can ensure that the same customer would buy a couple of branded watches for various occasions and dress styles citing the example of a famous actor or model or celebrity. I would also create a few ads showing that those who wear my branded watches are Winners who stand out and the rest are pathetic losers who belong to the invisible herds. Plato has stated that the intelligent are always a minority in a population, so the people who can figure out my schemes would be a minority and will not pose much trouble for me. The superficial majority however are bound to buy my watches and enable me to buy my next super-yacht, private island and latest sportscar, which similarly has been impressed on me by various ads and articles and examples of celebrities. And yes, there will be a few who are impressed with strong cravings by the ads of my watches, and being unable to afford them will try to steal them or get to a life of crime for easy money, and end up in prison for a couple of years. Bad luck, I guess. If they were smart enough like me, they would do all the robbing they wanted in a legal manner without anyone being the wiser.

WOW.

20 is pretty quick, Maybe "care," isn't the right word if you think the experience is worth your time to post it it might be interesting and I'm all in favor of more traffic in my go to sections, I think some rather odd things do happen with phones

A refinery burns in the Smolensk region (Russia) after a UAV attack Message from Russian officials: “In all likelihood, as a result of an enemy attack on civilian fuel and energy facilities, fires occurred in the Smolensk and Yartsevo districts. The Ministry of Emergency Situations is eliminating the consequences on the spot. I ask you to remain calm and not to panic,” the governor wrote. Local residents report that an oil refinery near the villages of Razdoro and Prigorskoye is on fire and publish a video. At least 4-5 explosions are reported. https://t.me/pilotblog/11557

Each process takes about 20 minutes. But something happened on my phone tonight that defied normal explanation. I might explain tomorrow if anyone claims to care.
