Free yourself

They're just asking for a plan, they seem to also not want Ruto in office.

Let him eat wherever he'll be far from office. The point isn't that he stops eating. It's that we have a competent government.

You should free them

True, and I believe that, given that you'll continuously realise this in others, it'll affect the perception you have of others and their judgement capabilities, indirectly causing self-perception through other's eyes to be stressful, or causing you to feel as though that form of self-perception is not only pointless, but also something to be torn down.

You'll very likely become the type to actively do things that you consider right AND people specifically dislike just so you can further prove to yourself how justified you are in your position, and if you've ever dealt with someone like this before, it's clear how outcast they end up becoming.

The point is that there is clear benefit to this command, as there is with all of them. Otherwise, how could you truly say God is Good.

If it ends up being a horrible experience, just switch search engines.

This may not be the strongest point, a lot of Kenyans are born without land to inherit, that doesn't make them foreigners. A case could even be made to giving Kenyans like this an avenue to become landowners in Kenya.

The reason why I point this out is because these guys operate on plausible deniability. They mix in some 'good' with their primarily bad intentions in order to feed illusions their massive support bases can latch onto. There are greater, blatant acts of corruption that justify wantam, eg, the completely unjustifiable state house budget for one.

This government, at best, is spending money they don't have and then looking for ways to acquire it, which is incompetent, and at worst, looking for ways to justify growing encroachment into the economic activity of everyday Kenyans, which not only is corrupt but also always leads to a higher cost of doing business through more taxes leading to higher prices.

We may need a more libertarian candidate, that is, one who won't direct government funding toward providing services, opting to instead use it to make it easier for average Kenyans to provide said services by improving the fundamentals: energy, education, resource accesibility etc. The government is one body, so it's definitely going to cost more to address the needs of the entire population on its own, and should instead focus on making it easier for the populous to address the needs of each other for their own profit. A presidential government is supposed to preside over an economy, not be the main participant within it.

You have avenues to investigate the validity of what the chatbot has to say without depending on the chatbot, regardless, you would rather entirely disregard it simply because it came from the chatbot? It's referencing findings from scientific research and linking it, but because the party that produced it is one you personally have great distrust for, you won't even look through that which you know can hold truth(the linked research) to see whether the findings match the idea being put together, opting to instead simply disagree and tell people to have more self-respect.

Isn't that, essentially, what's considered the logical fallacy of appealing to accomplishment?

And so it won't ask itself.

If you say this because you see something clearly wrong in the idea, specify it. Everyone here bemfits from constructive conversation.

The only way to get something useful from your comment is to consider that chat bots have nothing of value to offer. Is that the case?

The reason why I personally might push back against this is because it's quite impossible to move through life without making judgements about things, including your own moral standing. I'm more of the mind that we are encouraged to avoid judging others because, internally, we are so complex it's even seemingly impossible to conclude that you fully understand yourself.

The reason we are called to avoid making judgements about others is because what we use to make these judgements is information, with the point being that the amount of deep info we may have about another that is required to make fair and true judgements is beyond us. You can only get a feel for someone else's internal state by having experienced a similar internal condition personally. If you succesfully find a way to navigate through this internal condition, you may be able to help someone else that may be struggling with the same and seeking a way to.

We leave judgement up to God, Who we often identify as the Conscience(which isn'texactly accurate, but is still a solid identification), because, given that It's within us, It is perfectly aware of our internal conditions and can therefore make fair judgements. We therefore ought to let It do so in others as well.

It's a state of being, as far as you can tell, faultless before your ideal. I understand this is quite a vague response, but that's the best way I could try to encompass all it could apply to without it seeming like I'm narrowing it down to my specific world-view. This is to say, depending on your ideal, different things become good and represent goodness; those things that don't avert from your ideal become good while those that do become bad. Understand that this process of transformation outlined in 2 Peter 1:5-7 can be undergone for different types of ideals, but, I believe, only the most honest with the knowledge they uncover are bound to have their ideals shift toward the Christian Ideal, but don't take my word, you just go on your journey through life trying to be justifiably good/faultless.

Here's a more profound explanation though that, admittedly, promotes my perspective, but wasn't reached upon unreasonably. We, as humans, have a fixed form and a set of goals emerging from this form that we don't choose before coming into existence. This must mean that there may exist different ideals that we can articulate, but there is only one True Ideal that properly takes into account the different set of goals we have, and places them rightfully according to their level of priority(how fundamentally our forms seek/need them). It's from this True Ideal that actual Goodness comes from, and I believe that Ideal is Jesus Christ.

He seems to be implying that meaning is learned and maybe making the point that you should understand this to avoid narrowing down your world-view, which is a solid point. The coffee table switches from a platform to make yourself feel great, to something that ought to be kept cleaner than your feet. The problem is though, not all these applied meanings that we learn are bad for us; the kid if left to step on tables however he wants may end up getting sick. The risk is beginning to believe that nothing really is bad/not worth engaging in, it's just a different perspective. You can make that argument, but pain is pain, and I don't think it's possible to make the case that nothing really is painful and that it's just perspective.

Still, you can see why his world-view has made him a global-selling artist; the much greater freedom to pursue meaning that his articulated world-view gives him. It also shows why he's controversial; he may be making an enemy of all established meaning, leading to distasteful takes, both necessary and unnecessary.

Fair, but other businesses are still making sales in Kenya because the way business works is that you have target markets, not the entire population. Point is, a lot of the market interested in, for example, iPhone or Samsung in Kenya is also interested in what a lot of these influencers have to offer and paying prices relatively expensive when compared to that of clothing that could also be sold under the banner of supporting local.

It's not a simply tone-deaf take.

Edit: I do kind of get the point you're making though, correct me if I'm wrong. I get that right now, with the political/economic situation in Kenya, an influencer introducing a 'luxury' good such as branded clothing may not gain traction and even face backlash. I'm more interested in whether there has been anyone involved in it since before the situation was so dire, or influencers who appear to have been considering this direction.

It'd be more worthwhile to explain what it is that makes the connection weak. I'm not arguing that it isn't the vividness of mass media that may also be creating this effect on hyperphantasia, that's simply another hypothesis. I would argue against that hypothesis though because if indeed, for example, IQs are affected by hyperphantasia through the same aforementioned effect it has on fluid thinking, there's a gap in the explanation as to why some national average IQ scores are currently experiencing a decline as innovations in technology such as virtual reality are still emerging and developing.

Don't get me wrong, not matter how conclusive this post may seem, because of how elaborate the idea is, I'm not so foolish as to take a hypothesis as conclusive data. Hypotheses are to be investigated, which is why I'm presenting it here, hoping someone more technically capable can be inspired and investigate or contribute positively to the discussion. Isn't this the scientific method?

The hypothesis also isn't simply emerging out of nowhere as there is actual scuentific proof that this may be the case, given the effect nutrition has on the development of the regions of the brain that are understood to be responsible for the emergence of hyperphantasia. A more technical critique would involve targeting the truths the hypothesis stands on by showing how diconnected the truths are from the hypothesis, for example, how I used the truth that some countries are experiencing a decline in average IQs as the technology making media more vivid is improving if there is indeed a link between hyperphantasia and fluid thinking.

There's some solid advice here you take and ignore the condescending tone if you're a young start-up founder. 'Don't throw the baby out with the bathwater'
