Lying to leaders doesn’t work now the issue. They need to work on being more truthful. Trump can say horrible things but asking as he speaks his mind they respect it.

Every politician is the worst of America besides maybe Josh Hawley who is a good guy with some bad policy ideas but good overall.

I think masculinity gets related to self reliance a lot but that should be promoted for both genders.

America is none of those things under Biden.

No shot Trump would ever go to prison. The cases would all have been overturned on appeal. I just feel bad for the people the media convinced there was a possibility of him going to jail the same way they convinced people hunter would.

Mark you’re smart enough to know it was Clinton and Obama who sold us out to China already.

Pretty sure ABC just paid $15million for lying about the whole rapist thing.

Race doesn’t matter the effect they had on people’s lives is what mattered. I wouldn’t feel bad for Brian if he was black

Most right wingers aren’t as nutty as media portrays the same way most leftists aren’t as crazy as the media portrays. That’s all just a divide and conquer strategy playing out.

The issue is social ownership say norways sovereign fund is only possible because of other countries capitalism. Countries like Norway and Sweden make money off of Americas abuse of other countries.

Communism is a fine idea, the problem is the nature of any power structure and people wanting to rise to the top of them.

I’ve just never been convinced any of the ideas we have are plausible. You look at any socialist society and they’re powered by capitalism out of the necessity of their being nothing else at this moment.

The struggle for control and power is human. The banking system goes back as far as human civilization and has arguably had a huge positive effect(we don’t know for sure because we don’t know what we would be without it) I’ve always thought we’d have a next time of evolution of society

I’m surprised people in America aren’t aware of this. I was wondering what trumps play in Canada was. People act like he’s crazy but there’s always a purpose in what he does rather evil or not.

The world is quite literally operated as a business. We have no real system to change that. That’s actually something I’ve pondered on along time about how to change. The issue with every idea is there’s always going to be someone who craves power and wants to be on top. That is part of humanity.

Thank you for being the first person on this thread who has a real idea worth talking about.

He could do. That being said limiting human suffering isn’t his main intention the advance of the human race as a whole which will also lower human suffering more then mining is his goal.

Neither, but Elon doesn’t run the mining companies Chinese nationals do. Whereas Brian does homespun was directly in charge of the company creating suffering. It becomes hard to deal with situations like this because if Elon wanted to stop this he would need to open his own mines which i suppose

Explain to me why RFK is a loon.
comment in response to
post
He quite literally has a degree in electrical engineering and has been integral in designing many things. He is a con artist to some extent for sure I won’t deny that. The whole electric car industry is one big con and he pretty much created it. Same with his crypto. Atleast you have valid criticism
comment in response to

Yes because I’m sure you have wonderful discourse with people who think exactly the same as you.
comment in response to

Well I mean I was a proponent of Bernie and I would have happily voted for him this year if he ran. I was going to vote for RFK until he dropped out. I voted for Biden in 2020. It’s strange how they’ve 1984’d the meanings of the parties.

I just like to understand the world around me. I also have always had the goal of generating wealth so I’ve studied indepthly how wealth has been generated over time. If you can’t understand the differences between them you’ll have blind hatred as so many do.

It’s sad how few people on this site are willing to have real discourse maybe x is better.

I have a mixed family, and you’re stupid to think with the biracial support Trump received that’s the conclusion. I’m starting to think you’re not a real person.

There’s no way you looked at my account and came to that conclusion. You are obviously the troll and not worth another reply.

My favorite rich person of all time is and always will be John D Rockefeller
Sr the greatest man who’s ever lived. I can only hope Elon would do the good he did but the reality is they had different goals in life. One had a devotion to god and the equality of man. One has a devotion to scientific

Telling you to read a book and educate yourself is being a troll? Are you sure you don’t belong on x?

I have valid criticism of Elon Musk which I have stated in this thread. The worst thing Elon musk does is buy cobalt from mines that use child slaves. That never gets brought up though because that’s part of the green energy revolution.

You should read cobalt red it’s a very eye opening book about the exploitation of children in the Congo that’s required for all of our green energy solutions.
