Do you have anything better to do?

Nothing surprising about it. The one common thread between all those things is profound group-think and self-bias.

@Reignforest You are engaging in nonsense.

What have you been smoking? No society has ever been even close to Turquoise and won't be for 100s of more years.

I don't know enough about him to say. He certainly played Trump for a fool and the North Koreans are very clever with their nuclear strategy.

VHS bro. VHS.

That's like saying a fish is primarily attracted to a lure.

@Hardkill Like the captain of the football team.

They are attracted to social position and leadership.

It's a bad situation either way. But from America's POV it seems like funding the war is the best move as long as Ukrianians still want to keep fighting. Trump is a buffoon. The only thing he should be negotiating is his own prison sentence.

Plenty

Yeah, because you shouldn't shit where you eat.

Dude, you are imagining this boogeyman. You are wresting with a phantom.

You gotta learn to talk yourself down and reassure yourself. Positive vs negative thinking.

Understanding is beyond conceptual.

@rnd Of course there is a lot of self-bias on the war from the American side. They can't help themselves. The bias is just part of the American group-think. They don't know how to think neutrally on this issue, nor does it pay for them to do so.

Is that what you kids call jerking off these days?

Because brains beat muscles.

@mr_engineer A nice scumbag

Don't tell girls you're nice. Tell them you're a scumbag. When it comes to girls, everything is the opposite of what you think.

Cause he's a selfish nationalist. Not everything is. Russia accepts plenty of "Western" stuff. Just not the whole neoliberal worldview. I said Putin is strong. But like all strongmen, he's also weak. That's the paradox of strongmen. If he was truly strong he wouldn't have had a mutiny to begin with and he wouldn't be so paranoid that he sits 30ft away from everybody.

@Bobby_2021 Wait till you reach the Alien Mind stage. Now that's magical.

Sure, a bit. But the US is a grand master at that.

That is tricky. But also, how do you know when to listen to your thoughts and when not to listen? That's just as tricky.
