Don't Discount Each Other!

Image
Don't make the mistake of paying attention to only the prominent ones for information and insight. That's what the foolish celeb-worshippers do.   It is that stupid attitude that leads to all sorts of problems in the first place.  All my worthless friends are part of this problem.   When you don't pay attention to each other, you not only lose information, but you also discourage each other from thinking,  and that eventually reduces collective thought,  and finally places you at the mercy of the insights of the few. Remember, the wealth of information from nobodies always far outweigh the prominent celebs.  Assume that to be true, and at the very least, you will make it a self-fulfilling prophecy. edX https://www.bitchute.com/video/sykhDQAHLil8/

Is the Glass Half Empty or Half Full? And the Right Answer is...

Image
The strategy of Corporations and governments in the long run is to get people to stop seeing the cup as half empty,  1. by downsizing the size of the cup to half so it can be perceived as completely full 2. by downsizing the thirst of the people so they view the glass as full enough 3. by getting the people to compensate for the glass being half empty by looking elsewhere for nourishment And this works by downsizing people's intelligence, aspirations, self-identity, ideas on what is ideal, etc, etc, in proportion to the downsizing of the glass, through the reduction of expectations via the provision of means to get around a half empty glass.  The hunger for profit by the few can never be reconciled with the maximal development of all the people.  Yup.  The best means supplied by capitalist and fascist governments globally to get around a problem is by getting you to not see it as one.   And how that is done is by 1.  providing you ways to get around it...

The Virtue of the Offensive

Image
It ain't an insult if it is true. It ain't offensive if it is true. It ain't insensitive if it true. It ain't racism if it is true. It ain't inciting racial hatred if it is true. It ain't being anti-you or anti-anyone if it is true. So, logically, you can't say something is anything good or bad till you've proven it is true or false. The presumption of innocence should not be confined to an episode of Matlock mate. Hence, censoring or penalising those who say it can be akin to hiding the truth in favour of maintaining and normalising a lie. The best approach to contending with an illegitimate statement is through efforts to prove it wrong. An informed opinion or decision is based on proving a view wrong, or realising it is right after a futile effort to do the former, in an effort to head toward what's right. This is the only way to ensure that truth is based on the consideration of contradiction, not its eradication. edX ...
