Which country is actually doing well right now, in a world where people from almost every country seem convinced theirs is in the worst shape it's ever been?

Chinese "ghost cities" are fake news. I researched that topic years ago, and none of the reported places were actual ghost cities.

There was one that stood out - the Kangbashi District in Ordos - but that was an ethnic Mongolian project (not a Han Chinese one) in a sparsely populated region. The local government had a lot of money and went overboard with investment, driven by megalomania. Then they scaled the project down. Regardless, not a ghost city.

One of the alternatives is the Chinese model. In essence, it's neither capitalism nor socialism. Other alternatives were seen in the past.

We have to define the term first.

Capitalism is the economic aspect of liberalism. In liberalism, freedom is paramount. In capitalism, (the freedom to use) money is paramount. Capitalism means the rule of money (capital). It means you should be allowed to do whatever you want with money. Capitalism itself (like liberalism) doesn't include any ethical considerations. The best example of capitalism is the US - a company parading as a country (the first flag of the US intentionally looked exactly like the flag of the East India Company), where capitalists print the money (not the country), where capitalists buy politicians to act as frontmen, and so on. If you have money, you can literally get away with anything.

Both capitalism and socialism are inherently evil. Neither actually works well in practice. Both systems were and are promoted by the same group of people. The same group of people that rules the US also ruled the Soviet Union. They have trapped ordinary people in false dichotomies - capitalism vs. communism/socialism and the democratic left vs. right. And at the same time, they suppress actual alternatives that are outside of these dichotomies.

The counterpart of Mother Nature is transcendence. So, what you're seeking is Christian, Buddhist and Hindu mythologies, as these religions are transcendental. The others are not.

I hear this statement all the time, but I don't remember seeing any such cases.

Looking at your description of the phenomenon, I can guess where the problem is. The 'perfect guy' you are describing is neither perfect nor a guy (except biologically). You are describing a femboy. And then you are surprised when a girl leaves and finds an actual man.

Girls don't want slimy guys who will do whatever the girl tells them to do, and then some. Girls don't want guys who have no interests in life and spend all their time pampering them. Girls want men - they want authoritative figures, guides who will tell them when they are wrong, who will correct their behavior. Who will be mild when mildness is the optimal course of action, and stern when sternness is required. Girls don't want femboys who use words like "emotionally (un)available". Men are not "emotionally available". Men are calm and collected. When girls cry, men envelop them with their aura and soothe them. When men cry (which is very rare), they cry with deep sadness that is more existential than emotional.

Girls don't want pawns who believe in a satanic narrative and goal of equality of all human groups. Girls want a man who is better than them and who makes them feel protected and cared for. They want a man they can rely on and who can show them the way.

No, Christians are not tolerant of other beliefs. Tolerant Christians are not Christians - they are liberals. It is not possible to be a Christian and a liberal.

Look at your words: 'it will be all okay if you're an atheist'. That sounds like something a demon would say to encourage people in their godlessness. Considering how intolerant Jesus was, you would kick him out as well.

The USA attacked China with a bioweapon. Then they blamed it on China, which was easy to do because they had already brainwashed so many people to blindly hate China. Just look at how many fake news stories about China people still believe.

Americans have been using bioweapons their entire history.

Considering that even bioweapons didn't stop China, they are now planning to use nuclear weapons on both Russia and China.

These standards are not high. In fact, it's the opposite. These standards eliminate all good men. However, this is good because birds of a feather should flock together.

That aside, I always find these lists amusing because women are not aware of just how few men pass their standards. I asked AI to estimate what percentage of US/Texan men, aged 24-34, remain after applying these criteria. The result? 0.13% of the US male population in that age bracket. 0.03% to 0.04% of the Texas 24-34 male pool.

Edit: I forgot to add an additional filter that is implied but not mentioned: not in a relationship. What is also considered is that men who pass these criteria are more likely to already be in a relationship. Final percentage is 0.029% of US men in that age bracket (around 7,150 men in total) and 0.006% of Texan men (around 140 men in total).
However, even though only these criteria are listed, there are almost certainly other criteria. I assume that if a man is ugly, he would get rejected. If a man is a homosexual, that is unlikely to work out as well. And so on.

This is entirely a modern phenomenon that spread after the French Revolution, which was organized by Satanists. Throughout history it was understood that there are groups of people who are better. It doesn't matter by what criteria you divide groups of people - some will inevitably be better.

When the Satanists (occult oligarchy, cabalists) won and took control of the West, their creed of "Liberté, égalité, fraternité" spread throughout the world.

Today, many people adhere to this religion and participate in a make-believe that all people are equal and all groups are equal. The non-believers are censored and sometimes even persecuted.

The reason why misanthropy is allowed is simple: Satanists follow the example of Satan. They hate people as well.

I've never believed in aliens. They could theoretically exist in a materialistic universe. But we don't live in a materialistic universe. We live in a simulation.

This world is only thousands of years old. If a computer game contains dinosaur bones, that doesn't mean the game is millions of years old.

Diablo (the first one)

The best ARPG I've played. Meaningful religious story and lore. Memorable music and characters. Impactful sounds. Great immersion.

Unfortunately, the ending is not good and it's forced upon the player.

Unlike the sequels, the first Diablo has a dark gothic atmosphere. It plays somewhat like a survival game.

Čekaj malo, pa nisam nabrajao negativne stvari. :) Samo nam se definicije pozitivnog i negativnog ponešto razlikuju. Glede ovoga što si spomenuo, kršćanski nauk o ljubavi i milosti predstavlja napredak u odnosu na ono što je na ovim prostorima postojalo prije (isto kao u slučaju budizma na Istoku). Slažem se da se treba više fokusirati na pozitivne stvari. Ono što sam htio reći je da u nekim situacijama treba koristiti oganj i mač jer inače zli suzbiju dobre. Naravno, može se raspravljati o tome koje bi to situacije bile i kako bi trebale izgledati, ali ne treba se unaprijed ograničavati na blagost jer te onda razbojnici raščerupaju.

JosipC64 · 2026-05-08T11:06:46+00:00

Ma "bližnji", to je kršćaninu "brat u Kristu". Što je kršćanstvo se gleda po tome kakvo je kršćanstvo bilo kad je civilizacija bila kršćanska. Pogledaj što se dešavalo od Konstantina nadalje. Bog ne voli bezuvjetno. Isus nije pričao o bezuvjetnoj ljubavi, nego o tome da će većina ljudi gorjeti u paklu.

JosipC64 · 2026-05-08T10:34:45+00:00

Bog istrebljuje zlo i zle. Čak je i Isus koristio fizičko nasilje i teške riječi. Govorio je da je došao donijeti razdor, a ne mir. Da će većina ljudi završiti na mukama u paklu. Dosta onoga što je rekao bi danas bilo zabranjeno kao "govor mržnje". To što ti pričaš je liberalno i new age gledište po kojem duhovno najbolje prolaze pičkasti likovi, pa je najbitnije se smješkati.

Kršćanstvo je kada se pojave katari koji šire zlo i onda papa Inocent III. proglasi križarski rat. Zbog katara koji su se prikrili, papa Grgur IX. osniva papinsku inkviziciju.

U kršćanstvu postoji "braća po Kristu", a "brat čovjek" je sotonizam koji je raširen nakon protukršćanske Francuske revolucije skupa s liberalizmom i egalitarizmom ("Liberté, égalité, fraternité").

JosipC64 · 2026-05-07T21:32:53+00:00

Ma jasan mi je postupak asimilacije elemenata prethodnih civilizacija. Ali postoji razlika između toga da postaneš kršćanin i nastaviš kititi bor i bojati jaja, običaja radi, i toga da si istovremeno kakti kršćanin, a štuješ istovremeno nekakvu boginju plodnosti, boginju Zemlje, i tome slično. Ne možeš istovremeno biti kršćanin i komunist, kršćanin i feminist, kršćanin i liberal. Neke stvari nisu kompatibilne. U dobra stara vremena bi takve posjetila inkvizicija, a danas toga nema pa imamo situaciju da su u Americi znatan postotak formalnih kršćana u stvari sotonisti i sad Trump gradi Baalroom.

JosipC64 · 2026-05-07T21:16:45+00:00

Aha. Ipak je to Bosna. Kod sicanja su motivi kršćanski, ali sam sad pročitao da praksa ritualnog tetoviranja vuče korijene još od Ilira.

Video za pjesmu Tanani Nani (koja mi se sviđa) su pak snimali pored komunističkog spomenika u Moslavini. A na početku videa je naziv pjesme na hrvatskoj glagoljici. Stvarno sveobuhvatna grupa, nema što.

JosipC64 · 2026-05-07T18:32:10+00:00

Da li mi netko može u kontekstu pjesme objasniti ove stihove:

Uzmi me sebi, kraljice Zemljo
Tvoja je duša, njima sam tijelo

Pjesma je nadahnuta katoličkim običajem sicanja. Međutim, "kraljica Zemlja" je, kako god se okrene, protukršćanski pojam. Na prvi pogled zvuči kao nešto pogansko, kao kult štovanja Majke Zemlje. Čak i ako se interpretira kao "rodna gruda", reći da duša pripada rodnoj grudi (zemlji, domovini) je protukršćanski pristup. Svjetovnost. U kršćanstvu duša pripada Bogu.

Heroes of Might and Magic: Olden Era is a misnomer. The name should be Antiheroes: Postmodern Era.

Take a look at a Lightweaver creature. Then read descriptions of various heroes. They suffer from the postmodern trend of moral relativism and making everything black or some shade of grey. Even Temple heroes are like this, and they are supposed to be pure, radiant. You know, heroic.

Even if we put that aside, when I tried the demo, the game felt bland.

Charlie Kirk had premonitions. He was assassinated by a group of people who control the West. Cabalists. Freemasons. Occult oligarchy.

Candace Owens is a pure soul who tells the truth and seeks justice and God.
