    Europe in Chaos

    I think you're making this into a feminist strawman(or woman?) argument. I just think the intention was that a lot of modern "feminist" ideas are really counter productive to what has historically proven successful as men and women each accel in different roles and we have different needs for...

    Europe in Chaos

    Well shit. I have a very simple way to solve this problem. Time to grow a pair and do what needs to be done. My friend has a saying, and I think it's appropriate here: "everyone wants to be Batman, until it's time to be Batman". It's time to be Batman.

    They're there, But whether the cops decide to investigate is another matter. They might be tied up with more urgent crimes. they will be used against you sooner or later.

    Ukraine - Russia Conflict (Original Title: Things are heating up in the Donbass)

    a lot of that makes sense and aligns with why director Ratcliffe made an urgent unplanned visit. Hopefully the US can stay out of this. It seems genuinely serious that the Ukraine conflict is about to be expanding.

    Lindsay Clancy is now in the hands of a Massachusetts jury

    I haven't watched the trial, but my .02 cents is that she was probably on WAY too many pills. She may be evil, she may be insane, the copious amounts of strong pills certainly didn't help the situation and probably changed her mental state. I also tend to believe evil is real. I think she...

    Nuke Pickaxe Mountain ?

    It's certainly a possibility. I tend to think they are more for deterrence and regime survivability, but I'll never know. I can't get in their heads and know what they're thinking.

    Flock cameras, you are being spied upon ( Major privacy concerns)

    You're too obtuse to realize what we are talking about. This thread is about flock and unconstitutional warrantless spying on citizens living their lives. This has nothing to do with traditional surveillance CCTV systems within places of business, or residences. Based on your recent track...

    Nuke Pickaxe Mountain ?

    Good question. I used to think that if NK got them, it would lead to war in SE asia, but that doesn't appear to be the case. It looks like they are being used to secure regime continuity and survival. NK has now basically assured their survival and are untouchable without risk of...

    Ukraine - Russia Conflict (Original Title: Things are heating up in the Donbass)

    US and Iran conflict thread. ( merged threads)

    I get your point. But I don't understand why it isn't higher. It logically makes sense that it would be higher until this conflict is resolved. There is so much risk and uncertainty, and all the while the readily available global oil reserve stocks have been depleted. The odds of more...

    US and Iran conflict thread. ( merged threads)

    The speculation, is that we are within a couple weeks of depleting the remainder of the SPR, and many believe the conflict in middle east is very far from over, it's just merely being paused right now. No one in the US is changing driving habits yet, demand is still as high as usual, the rest...

    Charlie Kirk shot (merged threads)

    I think it does, don't you think there are major issues if a prominent American citizen, political activist was assassinated by either elements of the US government or foreign intelligence agency? That would be pretty bombastic if either were true.

    I think being aware of the risk of confirmation bias is important. Keep asking questions and try to be objective. Be willing to reevaluate your positions based on new information.

    US and Iran conflict thread. ( merged threads)

    100% I've been saying many similar thoughts. I still standby my earlier post where I have my theory on what the US was thinking, and how this conflict went off the rails so badly. We are falling into the exact same trap I've mocked Russia of doing. We made significant miscalculations, we are...

    Bitcoin / Cryptocurrency

    So dumb it down for me, how does the Asian markets tanking, selling off bonds affect the US? I totally believe it does and I've heard it many times, I just am not appreciating the linked interconnected process of the 2 events. Essentially is it correct to say, that if no one is buying our...

    Bitcoin / Cryptocurrency

    No joke... I'm going from memory but sometime in like 2012 (maybe sooner?) I read some random article talking about Bitcoin and explaining what crypto currency was. It was the first I hear it. At the time bit coins were like $10 each when I was reading this and looked it up. I toyed with the...

    Our Ongoing Slide into a Police State

    I think you misunderstood me, I meant the majority of people are aligning against flock cameras and data centers. (Not OK with them) But majority of people seem to agree that they suck and they don't want them. It's about the only thing that people on the left and right have common ground on...

    Our Ongoing Slide into a Police State

    Well... I went anyways...lol Just did the boardwalk loop. It's about 2.5 miles and it's mostly all in the shade so it was tolerable. Saw lots of interesting little critters and creatures. Definitely glad we went to check it out. It's a unique place.

    You're wasting your energy replying. Look at the post history. There's no amount of logical reasoning that will convince. He genuinely thinks it's good for big government to be in charge and have the ability to restrict rights and invade privacy. 99% of people realize that having a video...

    That's a result of communist policies and government. They can stay in their urban enclaves. They don't venture off to where I would visit. I'm not going to let the commies ruin the beauty of America.
