Yeah:

I remember the polls were reporting that after the 1st few poll-stations reported, then suddenly ALL the poll-stations were reporting that 2/3rds of the votes were for the guy who won, & there was no variation anymore.

You can’t get more fake than that.

I lament Nova’s demise, too…

I think the reason that the tech companies won’t allow us to have our devices our own way ( Microsoft was doing this decades ago ), is “religious”/ideological, not practical:

I think they “need” to keep everybody permanently in a headlock, with our heads all twisted, because only if we are all in permanent learned-helplessness, only then can they automatically get away with everything they intend to be getting away with, in our world.

IOW, our autonomy violates their totalitarian religion, see?

It’s the same as how ANY spirituality grates on Dawkins’ blood: he wants it all gutted/butchered/destroyed, & suicides of ones he destroyed are no problem for him, & no alternative ever can have any validity to him.

Totalitarianism, whether traditionally “religious”, or in any other ideology/prejudice/religion, is the same: it HATES violation of its homogenous dominion.

( comically: homophobic-religions want a homogenous het humankind, with no violation of that homogeneity. The existence of homosexuals is too heterogenous for them )

Autonomy is something that totalitarian supremacism ideology “needs” to obliterate from the whole world.

Consistently.

It seems to be a damn-good diagnostic for it, even!

DEET is the only chemical that I know-of which they HATE.

I use mosquito-netting to keep them away from me.

I don’t want DEET touching me, at all, ever again.

No, I’m not a mosquito.

Context ( global ) can change everything, in all kinds of ways.

I hope Harris wins, hugely, but … “The Jezebel”'s cult

( see https://www.benjaminlcorey.com/could-american-evangelicals-spot-the-antichrist-heres-the-biblical-predictions/ for evidence that the label I used is Christian-bible based, ie accurate, according to their Book of Revelations )

has promised civil war if they don’t win.

I’ve been telling people for years that US Civil War Part2, as I now call it, is going to happen with Trump…

( the actual reason is that human unconscious-mind is rather like a 70 billion pound toddler, & it wants to beat God, to break God, to MAKE GOD OBEY, and the Tantrum/Pogrom that will break the world nearly to death, because the collective-unconscious’s toddler wasn’t catered-to enough … is going to take up the rest of this century.

I expect the global everybody-going-at-everybody to begin in 2035 or 2036 or so.

There’s a stage between now & then where the US Civil War butchers NATO, & the anti-NATO empires grab all of the world that they can.

India, betting that Russia’s going to protect it from China, when Russia’s essentially a vassal-state of China, now, … India is hosed for that fight.

Anyways, it’s just The Great Filter: no religion, Abrahamic or otherwise, is the origin of it, it’s just that when someone, including a world-species, reaches nuclear-capability without earning unconscious-mind-growing-up, then … that unconscious-toddler’s going to go RAMPAGING when global population-saturation-frustration becomes inescapable AND when food-insecurity becomes global/continual, AND when political tantrum/pogrom becomes a means of “getting even” with not being catered-to, AND when religious supremacism is doing the same thing, AND when ClimatePunctuation, which WE caused, is accelerating much faster, between Temperate-Planet & Hot-Planet, through the next decades.

The kinds of predictions in that biblical stuff could have been dropped into any planet going into its Great Filter, the simultaneous terrestrial & marine food-chain-collapse ( Rev ), etc, the quakes ( rising sea-levels does that, as it alters the plate-techtonics pattern-of-stresses ), etc…

But given humankind’s unconscious-toddler is the real ruler of our world, & it “needs” to “prove that god must obey” its ignorance’s authority…

same as any narcissistic 2yo’s tantrum,

humankind’s unconscious is going to MAKE the world break, to prove that the tantrum is the ruler, the “god”…

Only problem is, that Universe isn’t going to cater to our racial-toddler…

So, either we force our own race’s unconscious into growing up …

… XOR …

we earn extinguishment.

Universe is honest, at least.

Will the “myth” making of our unconscious, in its enacting of the biblical armageddon, succeed in breaking all life, to “prove” its “greatness”?

Ask the toddlers who killed people with guns, in the US, if they “won”…

Obviously, the EU hasn’t the spine to eject Hungary, so Putin’s Ally/Representative in the EU will remain disabling the EU’s strategy, in all ways possible…

I wonder how many extra thousands of EU troops will die in the escalations of Russia’s aggression, through the next decade(s), as a result of their current-spinelessness?

( remember the English appeasers of Hitler helped the Nazis, & remember that Stalin was providing supplies to the Nazis right up until the day they invaded Russia. Having spine enough to do what is correct/proper isn’t common-enough )

Sooo close…

It isn’t the 2nd US CivilWar,

rather, it is the US Civil War Part2.

Not the US Revolution at all,

rather the Confederates revolution, within the US ( a “reverse takeover”, since they never really surrendered, in the previous half of the US’s Civil War, back before the 1900’s )

This is … ludicrous:

I’ve read that in the Jewish culture/religion that Yehoshua “Jesus” benJoseph, the woke socialist convict, grew up in, there was legal-divorce,

& there was a kind of rule, too:

“you aren’t allowed to marry someone, if you aren’t mature-enough to divorce them honestly/fairly/sanely” in that culture…

I’m not remembering the exact phrasing of it, obviously, but that was the essence of it.

IF you were too immature to divorce responsibly, THEN you were too immature to marry, in the 1st place.

For … to use a phrase from the Christian bible, just updating it to modern terminology … “those who call themselves Christian … but are not” to be warring against wokeness … in the name of the wokest guy in the entire New Testament, … & to be warring against socialism … in the name of the guy who literally is famous for feeding thousands of hungry people who wanted learning/understanding & food, for no money/commercial-exchange, & who also gave free healthcare to any who’d spiritually-earned it … you can see that their bible’s phrase “those who call themselves _ _ _ _ _ _ _ … but are not” is applicable to those who fake ANY religion’s membership, of any culture, anywhere!

How completely shameless can people be??

That it is up to his voluntary-withdrawl is absolute proof that the system never was engineered to be best-for-the-country as its “center”, instead was engineered to allow the politically-powerful to wear/wield the country, for their own interests.

You can’t hide if you’re a bat, pretending to be a bird: the skeletons are sooo utterly-different, that the way their motions work makes it impossible to hide the truth.

Same with this.

IF it had been engineered to be best-for-the-country,

then the country would automatically prevent DarkHexad people from competing for authority.

DarkHexad: narcissism / machiavellianism / sociopathy-psychopathy / nihilism / sadism / systemic-dishonesty

Do you reject that in the Trump/Biden election…

CNN & NYT shut down all progressive issues, and voices that they could, as completely as they could ( & even admitted it later, one of 'em, in an interview, which is where I got their term “shut down” from ),

…so that ONLY the Biden Institution would be??

I’d wondered what the hell kind of “journalism” was going on,…

…then when I found out that it had been deliberate propaganda “journalism” suppressing as much as necessary to push their preferred institution, on their part,

…and to prevent Bernie Sanders from having any significance…

Dear, fuck, that’s was low, of them.

Journalism & what they do are “non-intersecting sets”, nowadays, as seems to be the case with nearly all “journalism”.

I think that Ground.News is categorically better, but don’t know, for sure…

The DIFFERENCE in response,

Excellent resource, thank you for linking it directly,

& excellent suggestion.

I request that it be put into some site-wide script,

such that if someone uses one of those sources, the script notifies the would-be-poster/commenter that that is an untrustworthy-source, & to please find a trustworthy-source, instead.

This would be like the beginning of an immune-system for Lemmy.world

but his wealthy-donor’s “gift” addiction … wouldn’t be illegal, of course…

No: Biden’s optimal response may be that, but what his actual response is going to be, given the Dems’ coasting on assumed-entitlement, could be anything.

Never count chickens before they’re hatched, right?

Tell them of a famous guy, the most “woke” person in the entire bible, a socialist & convicted-felon people call “Jesus” benJoseph, who called hypocrites “Hypocrites!” right in their face, instead of “turning the other cheek”, a guy who got *physically violent" on the commercial-operation of the temple…

See if they just blot that out from their awareness, to fit their ideology…

Kahneman’s “Thinking Fast And Slow” is the key book to understanding the different mechanisms of mind, in the ideology/prejudice/instinct/reaction circuit, vs the considered-reasoning-circuit, in case you want the real “artillery” of understanding what’s going on in the world, now…

The same “morals” as the fake-Jews, aka “Jews”, who convicted Yehoshua “Jesus” ( Iosa, actually, not “Jesus”, was his Roman name, apparently ) benJoseph…

Remember in the Christian Bible, Pontius Pilate tried to have Rule of Just Law win the case, but the “Republicans” of his day wouldn’t tolerate that, and since Pontius Pilate didn’t have the political-leverage to win, he just washed his hands, explicitly of the case, in protest…

What has changed?

These “Christians” are behaving exactly the same, in motivation, as their predecessors did:

“Christian”, NOT Christ-ian!!

The Christian bible, itself gives this concept, but, since it was written a “Day as a Thousand Years” & a “Night as a Thousand Years” ago, it nails false-Jews, aka “Jews”, using our new falsifying-quotes technology ( that John the gospeler didn’t have, which “justified” all the Catholic murdering of Jews…

John was railing against not Jews, but false Jews, aka “Jews”.

This is blatently-clear in that he repeatedly called his guru “rabbi”, instead of using some non-Jewish title for him, in those places )

See right here, how substituting the word Christian for the word Jew, and then doing it again with every religion, puts things back in proper perspective: https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Revelation 2%3A9&version=AMP

We have to use language correctly, & stop platforming gaslighting, through typography, or we are helping the bad-guys win through our spinelessness.
