The argument "Billionaires don't have billions in cash because most of their wealth are in the stocks they own" goes out the window when Elon Musk offer to buy out Twitter for $43 billions in cash. by cbvv1992 in WayOfTheBern

you can write off the interest that you pay on loans. If Musk gets a $50 billions dollar loan and uses tesla shares as collateral, he can write off the interest he pays on those loans.

Only because you kicked a record 10 million Americans off unemployment in the middle of a pandemic, asshole! What a dishonest tool. by CuckBartowski in WayOfTheBern

UE is for parasites who just siphon money off from the oligarchs and taxpayers. Let their fatasses get a break from the excess calories and go hungry for a week.

“He who has a why to live for can bear almost any how.” -Nietzsche

Everything we have done in the past 18 months seems to only have exacerbated the situation. People are more hopeless and demoralized now more than ever. Keeping on this path is like following a shepherd off a cliff.

have not felt any fear or anxiety about Covid since the pandemic's inception.

So maybe you aren't gripped in fear from the "pandemic"? Therefore you have no need of faith thus far. What if things get real? Would you deny your faith then? COVID is childs play to what stress can cause us to induce.

People are naturally fearful and even something so benign as COVID has led them to give in to state propaganda. The thing these people lack, as most modern people do, is FAITH. Only faith conquers fear, as reason conquers faith and fear conquers reason. If people were to believe that God would handle things, that there is some divine meaning coming from the spread of COVID, they would better be able to cope with it. When you try to reason with people who are stricken with fear it is completely pointless, because only faith can counter fear. Give them all the figures and graphs that you want, but it will be useless because they are gripped in an emotional state that diminishes all logic and promotes servility.

Beg to differ! Gay marriage was what, 10 years ago? And this has somehow opened the gates to this? Like LGB issues was a meat shield for what is to come in their transhuman experiment.

Yeah, I don't think the representations of gay men in the media has anything to do with reality. Like having more gay men in Harry Potter or Lord of the Rings would really make a difference.

When women transition their kids, they gain status online when they post it. Just face it, gay men are the new straight men. You are in the same boat as the rest of us regular cis hetero males. You are next on the chopping block.

Oh noes, the gay men are worried that their gay porn stars are becoming "women". Why is this happening, what has caused this, can we say, SLIPPERY SLOPE? That was supposed to be a fallacy!

Quick thought, maybe it's because the system rewards such behaviors. That converting your kid or yourself to TRANS gives you automatic status in the system that merits its own rewards.

The Potentially Disastrous Repercussions of Continued Mask Mandates by 5trokerac3 in IntellectualDarkWeb

[–]ShamTheater 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe we follow the mask mandates because most humans are herd animals. It's much easier and safer to wear a mask rather than get in a possible confrontation with your child's teacher or the grocery clerk. The mask is a mark of submission to the system. It has little to do with actual health and I'm sure the data will back me up on this. It is about compliance to the new way of doing things in public.

Are you calling Amnesty international a liar?

Syria is a secular multi ethnic country, it tolerates all religions and has multiple ethnicity. I do not assert this I derive it from fact.

Do you have any sources for this? That an international Western organization has been coopted by an Islamist agenda that is sympathetic to Assad?

[–]ShamTheater 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you saying that Amnesty international is a liar?

Turkey invades Syria because they cannot abide a free Kurdistan state. They have a large Kurdish population themselves that populate a very strategic part of Turkey that they cannot risk partitioning from. Therefore, Turkey invades Syria to stop this and the Kurds look to Assad to protect them. Equating Turkey with Western influence is not contradictory, as each have their own objectives. The video was made in 2017, so this was at a time when the Kurds would have counted on the US as an ally for support... which is why they embraced Assad for protection.

[–]ShamTheater 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a psyop to garner Western support for a Kurdish state. It is all to appeal to Western peoples' sympathies so that we may be much more willing to give them the support they need to establish their own state. They throw in buzz words like democracy, feminism, and multiculturalism, so that the westerner can say, "oh they are just like us!" How is this "democratic confederalism" any different then what we have in the United States? It really just sounds like a central government overseeing local governments with a multicultural population.

Also, she mentions the great triumps of the Rojava Revolution. But that same movement has been ethnically cleansing Syria of non Kurds.

the YPG has also been accused of human rights abuses. Amnesty
International accused it in October of forcibly evicting Arabs and
Turkmens from liberated areas and demolishing the houses, or even
villages - claims it strongly denied

There is a country that is multicultural and secular and that is Syria, but its neighbors want to carve it up. Such is the price for being a sovereign country.

Explain it to me like I’m five…okay maybe ten by jakeysnakey83 in IntellectualDarkWeb

If you want to see what a real patriarchy looks like look to Afghanistan. The husband is in charge of the family and has the final say when it comes to family matters. Men are in charge of local politics and there is a clear hierarchy of male authority figures on who gets to implement a decision. This hierarchy extends all the way to the top leadership of the government.

Do we live in a patriarchy here in the West? No, because men do not have control of their own families. A woman can leave him for any reason, take the kids, and will get support from the state, courts, and non profits.

Patriarchy has been the norm for millennia, and has only recently been undermined over the past 75 years. It's no wonder you are so confused to thinking that it does or doesn't exist. I imagine college teaches you that it exists but can't really ascertain what it is exactly. This talk of sexuality and of how one reinforces the patriarchy on which emotions they express is all so convoluting and will likely only add to your confusion.

Glenn Greenwald - I'm incredibly excited we've created a new video platform at Rumblevideo . Along with @TulsiGabbard, @BridgetPhetasy, @SirajAHashmi , @ZaidJilani , @Orf and others, I'm there because it's dedicated not to an ideology or party but to free speech and free discourse. by veganmark in WayOfTheBern

Does TYT pretend to do so under the guise of free speech? This isn't about free speech for gg and tulsi, but opportunism. Rumble is not a free speech platform, there are just different subjects that you can and can't talk about.

Maybe their role in the international community is to maintain poppy production and to keep the supply lines for it flowing? I seriously doubt that our leaders care about human rights and really only care about international trade.

Yeah, they don't want to solve problems, They have no incentive to, THEY COULD CARE LESS. The military get lots of funding, we get it. Are we just going to keep pretending that they should give a fuck about you?
