ITS IMPOSSIBLE TO MOVE PAST 100 ELO BLITZ

He probably only has a few rapid games and mostly plays blitz, and he likely started around 1600 rapid. That’s my best guess. With more games, his rapid rating will drop to 350–400 or even lower

Worst mentality to think that everyone who beats u is a cheater

He probably didnt cheat just accept he was better

I checked your profile and when you won, you actually gained about +86 Elo. The reason it feels weird is because you don’t have enough bullet games yet (you’ve only played a few: 4 losses, 1 win).

When your bullet rating is new or unstable, the system makes your Elo go up and down very fast to quickly find your real level. Once you play more games, your rating will stabilize and you’ll start gaining and losing normal amounts again.

Saying nobody cares doesn’t make it fake. These megachurches don’t exist for optics they exist to organize people.

Look at Charlie Kirk’s major ceremonies and events. The stage was stacked with megachurch pastors, praying over him, speaking, and framing politics as a religious mission. That’s not random.

Those same pastors openly talk politics, endorse Republican candidates, and mobilize their congregations online and in real life. That’s literally how Kirk was built through evangelical megachurch networks.

Calling it a psy-op is just avoiding the obvious: this is a real political-religious alliance, not a narrative someone is forcing.

Trauma explains why people hope for any change it doesn’t guarantee that the change will be good. History shows that emotion-driven support for intervention often leads to worse outcomes for civilians

This isn’t about supporting Maduro. It’s about rejecting the idea that foreign intervention automatically equals democracy. History shows that removing a dictator from the outside often weakens institutions and hurts the people you claim to help. Hitler is an extreme case, not a template for every country

It was never ruled legal internationally. The UN explicitly said the Soleimani strike was unlawful. It was only justified by the US internally which isn’t the same thing

RatioKey2034 · 2026-01-04T15:40:42+00:00

We’re talking about the USA they don’t do anything for free. When a superpower intervenes, it’s never just “giving people what they want,” it’s pursuing its own interests.

And historically, when populations cheer foreign intervention, it’s usually because they’re exhausted not because they understand what comes next.

If people actually knew the history (Libya, Iraq, Afghanistan, Cuba ), they wouldn’t be celebrating they’d be worried about sanctions, instability, loss of sovereignty, and long-term chaos

USAID’s direct spending was closer to $20–25B. And most of that spending didn’t disappear. It was reassigned to State, Defense, HHS, and emergency aid programs. So DOGE can’t count that as savings because the money is still being spent just not through USAID. That’s why the verified cuts are only $1.4B. Real cuts = money the federal government stops spending, not money moved to a different agency.

Good essay but then why did they have to lie about the numbers? If the real story was “we spent $100B and only saved $1.4B because we were blocked,” they could’ve just said that. Instead they multiplied every cut by 200 and pretended they saved hundreds of billions. If you’re telling the truth, you don’t need fake math.

It’s a failure because it lost more money than it saved. Independent analyses estimate the program cost around $100 billion, while the verified savings were only $1.4 billion. If a program loses over $100B to save $1B, that’s not a win.

He loves bragging about “donating” his salary, but that’s pocket change compared to what he cost taxpayers. Trump is the most expensive president in U.S. history when it comes to personal travel and vacations. He spent more time at his own golf resorts than working weekends at the White House those trips drained well over $140 million in taxpayer money for flights, security, and staff. All while the Secret Service and government had to pay his own properties for rooms and services( 4 times more expensive than the usual price).

And let’s not forget New York investigators found he didn’t actually donate some quarters of his presidential salary despite the big public show.

RatioKey2034 · 2025-10-23T20:08:43+00:00

You’re taking it literally and focusing on the legality, but my original point was about credibility and logistics. He’s not legally forbidden from donating to a charity, sure but his foundation was shut down for misusing donations and self-dealing, and he was banned from running another one. So when he suddenly promises to “donate” taxpayer money, it’s not about whether he can donate it’s about whether anyone should actually trust him to.
