That’s an assumption you’re making and then simply declaring to be self-evident.
It’s self evident to anyone who reads the things that have been released regarding past events.
The US government has consistently relied on misleading it’s populace as a tactic. If you genuinely don’t believe this and want examples to digest with an open mind, id be glad to throw some out.
Chances that a US 3 letter agency has conducted clandestine operations within the country (aimed at misleading it’s own populace) in the past 5 years are pretty much a certainty.
Speculation is pretty much all one can do for these because the evidence is deliberately and professionally hidden. Such evidence may never be available to the public and usually takes time to surface.
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.
Anyone know the term for what was described in the article as “people don’t know what’s real anymore” ?
I know the subject has long been prophesized by tech enthusiasts as the inevitable result of competing echo chambers but seeing it happen in front of our eyes hits different.
I like this take. There could be a venn diagram of these and punks and goths would both be likely to wear black.
Thank you. Sadly, the concept of legitimizing a government isn’t something most people understand enough to appreciate.
Line must go up. They probably see themselves as brave by continuing to follow Friedman’s shareholder logic in the face of these events.
Sex researchers Baumeister and Tice wrote about sexual economics.
“A heterosexual community can be analyzed as a marketplace in which men seek to acquire sex from women by offering other resources in exchange.”
From an evolutionary standpoint it makes sense that women wouldn’t want a partner that can’t provide security for the couple when the woman would be vulnerable if pregnant/nursing.
Young men in particular have fewer resources of value to offer than at any time in most people’s lives. To that point, it’s not like young women are dating any better, so even if they are willing to be the sole provider, most are unable to do so.
With the traditional partnership which historically provided companionship out of the question, men are left yearning for female companionship.
Another point the researchers make, is that men will always yearn, while women have a generally easier time abstaining until conditions are right.
Yes this is amazing advice. Playing slow but consistently will eventually sound better. No breaks in the music or pauses to adjust fingers.
Did you … Did you donate $420,000.69 to my inauguration fund?
The more corruption settles in, the less effective voting becomes. This is why the citizenry has civic duties beyond voting.
Incoming graduates saw an entire generation go to college at the highest rates ever just to find a job market that left a record number of them with debt still on their name more than a decade later.
What were once institutions devoted to academia, have become corporate training camps ran by a board that runs the institution with a corporate mentality, and they enrich themselves commesurately.
Coffee. The Internet told me it’s going to get insanely expensive so I like to savor it while I can.
I gotta stop using chrome on my phone 😔
World in Conflict is one I don’t see talked about. Squad based military RTS.
Multiplayer on that was so fun. Guessing how the enemy was moving in order to time how you call ordinance on them was my favorite part
In the US, unlike most other countries, medical doctors are most at risk for suicide.
The book ‘Determined’ makes a great point on how schizophrenia victims have been mistreated throughout history.
I read somewhere that one of the effects is abstention from treatment. Essentially the idea that, sometimes, to do nothing is better than blasting the body with macro doses of foreign chemicals. This seems to be the case here.
Ahh yes, the freedom loving state. Texas. That’s right.
I was going to link you to a wikipedia article titled CIA controversies but took the time to name a few of the more flagrant episodes by them and the FBI which would be more interesting to learn about.
Operation north wood, midnight climax, mk ultra, project mockingbird, cointelpro, operation chaos, the church committee reports.
Reading about just a few of these should start to reveal that skepticism regarding the intent and methodology of the US gov is a valid response and not necessarily in line with ‘conspiracy theory bullshit.’
