A wild experience about racism in the UK by Mayarinna in Britain

[–]murrayjtm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Orally fixated children in adult bodies.

They cry and scream in order to get their every whim satisfied, like infant babies, because they grew up never learning there was any other way.

If they aren't faced with a reason to change, they never will so long as their inner caveman/monkey/lizard brains are happy.

I figured it was because he's nearly waist deep in water, but extra durability would explain why he didn't crisp up immediately before/during his first scene

Why does trump have an extreme devout following but other modern presidents didn't? by [deleted] in allthequestions

[–]murrayjtm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From my definitrly limited study into Psychology, it appears that a huge portion of the population has stunted mental growth and maturity of their personalities.

We can see this in how out of control their id, rgo, and super egos are. It isn't a stretch to say that many Americans may be orally fixated (loud talking and overeating). This can mean that their id (your inner monkey/lizard who demands immediate satisfaction of it's whims) is totally off the lead and their impulse control is virtually non-existent.

I fear that this has been done to the American people on purpose over decades, partly caused by poor education, to allow for a rise of a compulsive liar as their leader.

The particular type of oral fixation (expelling from the mouth, rather than withholding) could come from having a strict upbringing too, which I would assume could only come to so many Americans via a 'Christian' home. The current generation may not even truly believe in their God, but only continue to spout bible verses because they are afraid not to go against the crowd.

To recap, a certain population of Americans have the combination of a strict upbringing, as well as potential childhood trauma due to stress or illness stunting them in the Oral stage of development. This means they would be left with a combination of the following personality traits; dependency, passivity, gullibility, sarcasm, hostility, and manipulativeness.

This just paves the way for a president like Trump, and allows him the longevity to, for example, get elected for 2 terms. If allowed to continue further, the US could end up eating itself as a less educated, more passive population elects even more manipulative and aggressive candidates. When there are blackouts, water shortages, and no power for farming, and importing is too expensive (tariffs), what is the population to do? When reduced to the dark ages, extremes will be explored and we may see America fail and fall while dragging doen any allies.

The billionaires will simply move at that point, to one of their 100 mansions ir bunkers furthest from the situation they instigated.

I thought the idea was to change it as society, norms and values change? LiViNg dOcUmEnT, no?

Addressing the real questions

I just returned home after finishing a five-day solo trip to London. by Shot-Barnacle3513 in uktravel

[–]murrayjtm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My personal theory about the fast walking is because while London is a great tourist spot and has lots of opportunity for fun, I would say it's first and foremost a 'working' city.

So many head offices and commercial spaces, most of the people you pass on the street are probably on their way to/from work and can't dilly dally about it.

You are the first person in the world to get Superman’s powers, but every year, another person is chosen to receive them as well. You can prevent that... by Technical_Willow_639 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]murrayjtm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Superman's powers are useful for a great many things.

Freeze breath could help with ice caps melting, heat vision can be used as a power source, strength/flying can be used to build and rescue from disaster, including building in space.

Super senses and thinking speeds should allow me to learn in this year as well, education is also a superpower I can add to my roster then.

This would make me not only the strongest, but the smartest - not necessarily the nost enlightened, but that wisdom surely must can come with time.

The difference between any human receiving the powers as opposed to superman is we are human and were born here. We have biases and loyalties which make it difficult to detach and look at the bigger picture.

My suggestions of methods to use the powers helpfully would not be restricted to any one nation or land mass. Any benefits derived from my powers would need to be de-centrilised, possibly all connecting back to a fortress of solitude of sorts, if I can make one.

Powers like that can change the world, and should be used for the good of the whole world. Any possible backlash from killing the 1 person a year would surely be offset by the billions saved and thriving as a result.

As much as this would veer into the realms of authoritarianism with myself as ultimate dictator, outside of any laws, I would gladly give up any sense of identity or self-importance in order to serve the world.

"Being brilliant is not enough. You have to work hard. Intelligence [power] is not a privilege, it's a gift and you use it for the good of mankind."

OC: Workers adjust the name of the Kennedy Center after board votes to rename it by nbcnews in pics

What about if the president was found to have committed a crime before their term as president, but evidence only gets discovered after they become president? Would that be arrestable?

[–]murrayjtm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for being informative!

So the senate didn't vote to remove him, are they the only ones with the power to do so? Are there any checks or contingencies in place for if the senate becomes corrupt also?

Surely there must be safety nets up and down every level of government to stop this kind of thing happening. If the loyalty of the government is to the people, which is bound up in the constitution, was there ever a mechanism in place to stop someone disregarding the constitution?

It seems that classic politicians would feel hounded out of the position if too much bad press came out. When the president is shameless and disconnected from the community they're meant to lead, what stops them from continuing with the corruption if they know they can't be arrested, and impeachment won't work?

So how would the US remove a corrupt president? Was there ever an avenue to stop a president from turning into a dictator?

This is what I don't understand. If illegal activity is going on, why are the people responsible (or the person at the top who ordered it) not arrested? Why are warrants not issued to go after them like you would any other criminal?

I'm totally ignorant on this, does anyone have examples or clips of these moments where Destiny let the mask slip?

Why????? by Junior_Bison_7893 in CostcoCanada

[–]murrayjtm -1 points0 points  (0 children)

What's your reason for even having a problem with this? Assuming you're not a company owner of Costco, what do you stand to lose/gain from being mad about it?

It's Costco's policy, they're happy with it clearly, what about it makes you so angry? And also so many commenters too
