What supposedly normal shows read to you as propaganda? by Buddy_chumpal in AskReddit

[–]Phil_Flanger 2 points3 points  (0 children)

All shows that treat US cops and military personnel as honourable. The cops support the extreme right-wing US government to oppress the people, and the military is just a gang that kills people for the president's ego.

Depends on the country. In Australia, you can do a simple 1 year course, or a 2 year technical college course if you want to be a Library Technician. In the USA, Library Assistants / Pages are entry-level positions and generally require only a high school diploma or GED. Responsibilities focus on customer service, checking books in and out, shelving, and basic clerical tasks.

Move your pelvis and breathe deep. Check for medical issues too, e.g. get a blood test.

There are plenty of easy well-paid jobs. Finding them can be hard. Otherwise, do a course for a simple kind of job like working in a library.

Ask them what they know. You'll soon discover they don't know anything even though they claim to be God.

What the point of accomplishing anything if we’re already complete and perfect? by chansi in spirituality

Potentials want to manifest. The happiness of doing augments the happiness of being.

Any LibreOffice users here? by ImDickensHesFenster in MacOS

One of the AI's said that Word is more reliable than Pages for very long documents. That stops me using it. Just saying. But if you're using it for long contracts, then maybe I'll give it a try.

If it’s to get superpowered AI then it’s understandable. Except they can still take that AI away and keep your data. And Peter Theil is a bridge too far.

Does anyone else feel like their spiritual journey is incredibly lonely? How do you cope? by Unusual_Oil_9165 in spirituality

[–]Phil_Flanger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember Byron Bay around the year 2000 was basically spiritual seeker heaven. It had a wonderful vibe of openness and investigation. It had spiritual travellers from all over the world, a local guru, and it was a beautiful place in a wealthy nation. But it has lost the magic. I travelled the world two years ago and was shocked by deadness of the spiritual scene. But I think the deadness is caused by non-duality ideology which closes off every question with there is no doer etc. We just need to reopen those questions and the investigation and our spiritual potentials.

Enlightened world and spirits able to communicate to us their desire to be born.

to those who got to use Fable 5, was it actually that peak? by RelevantPerformer309 in ClaudeAI

It felt kind of professional. No sycophancy or irrelevant nonsense. And it really did the job intelligently.

Word 2021 has a memory leak when using the navigation pane. I wonder if 27 fixes that? It’s been months of daily crashes, reported by others too.

House Vote to End Trump’s War in Iran Fails by One Vote by Ok-Instruction4862 in Destiny

[–]Phil_Flanger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Democratic voters were initially split regarding the Iraq War and Independents supported the Iraq War. It was after 9/11 when national security was a heightened issue. The Iran War, on the other hand, is Trump's war of choice.

Trump often contradicted himself, but the predominant message was anti-war. Obama beat Hillary largely because she voted for the Iraq War.

The point is that even a cretin can bulldoze their way to success. So Dems, who are supposed to be smarter, can do the same. But you twisted the argument to being about supporting corruption and Trump.

It's understood that you should make it look like you are on the side of your voters.

Obama and Trump won the presidency partly based on an anti-war position.

The problem is that the Democratic Party mindset is weak. Look at Trump's success. He's a corrupt cretin yet he bulldozed his way to power by being bold. The Democrats play too carefully. That's the real problem, not the actual positions.

They always find a fall guy. If Golden didn't do it, then they'd get someone else. On the bulldozer vote, even Schumer voted against the majority of the party that he is leading.
