  1. US is gonna think long and hard before invading someone with nuke. Like North Korea.
  2. By that logic most people need a lot of work to get their shit together.
  3. But why not? What is lost if other people aren't true? Why want other people if they are false? In this work you are rewarded for trusting in truth.
  4. Focus your attention on the pursuit of Truth, and then whatever it happens to be will be good. Why aren't you curious about what is true? Why do you need it to be some way you want? Don't you see that whatever is true is what's Good! And whatever is good but isn't true is bad.
  5. Not really. It seems that way to guys who are bad with women.
  6. Iran having a nuke doesn't change anything. They are not suicidal. There would be no point in using it. All the nuke does is prevent the US from invading you.
  7. 5-MeO can certainly look like that. Vape a bit and it should hit you immediately.
  8. Yeah, well, Netanyahu ain't on board for that. He wants to weasle out more land.
  9. 1) Where are the Palestinians supposed to go? 2) Not every ethnic group gets a homeland. 3) Jews already have a homeland. The issue is them expanding into someone else's homeland. Jews losing all their land is not even on the table.
  10. Because it's what's true. Some things may fall into place and others may not. Maybe a rocket falls on your head.
  11. There's the rub. Who says it's theirs? A perfect example of relativity in action.
  12. Yes, although I think Israel is much more captured by religious fundamentalists than the US.
  13. @Hardkill They also got lots of orthodox religious fundamentalists and nationalism.
  14. Even if they don't, you can't assume that progress is linear. So it doesn't really matter what the history was. Today is unique.
  15. When I realized Absolute Truth as the highest level, I realized that I am completely powerless to change anything. You are trying to manipulate but instead what you get is total surrender.
  16. Of course. No different than USSR and China. Because socialism cannot exist at such low levels of development. Marx himself said that socialism can only come after capitalism is exhausted, and these countries have yet to master the basics of capitalism. Palestine is stage Red/Blue, Israel is stage Blue/Orange.
  17. @Nabd Well, there was supposedly Leftism in South American countries as well, Cuba, etc, but look what happened to it. Leftism in underdeveloped places ends up turning to crap.
  18. It's hard to compare to those eras because I don't have a sense of how much things changed back then.
  19. Social progress always comes slower than you'd like. Especially when it comes to structural changes to the economy and the like.
  20. No. You must deal with all the shit that comes with being finite.
  21. @Nabd Leftism is not sustainable in war-torn areas.
