Trump is a paid actor, I believe most people here would agree to this. Trump probably will eventually take the blame for the Iran war and get impeached where the real players in the background evade all responsibility and continue their game. I don't think the 2028 elections would get cancelled, as that could spark a civil war. The Americans are not fools that would blindly allow the Republicans to be the authoritarians without the people's consent. I believe JD Vance will take Trump's place to continue the elite's agenda, which obviously consists of slowing down China's dominance in the world, allowing the petrodollar to keep functioning for the next few decades, and taking over most resources in the western hemisphere.

I don't understand how you can say to people that the place where Palestinians have lived for thousands of years belongs solely to the Israelis. Even in the Bible it says that Abraham travelled there as a foreigner, but then his grandson's family when to Egypt to escape famine. Their descendents then came out from Egypt and conquered the current area of Israel committing genecide to many of the kingdoms in the place at that time. And in the last century they managed to pull it off again. Now I don't want to hear any of the "they were led by God" bullshit. You can basically have tons of reasons to be against any nation for taking over land that originally didn't belong to them. Even in this day and age, the strong still overpowers the weak.

Unfortunately he's not wrong. Self validation and social validation is a mirror to each other. How are you able to truly self validation if you don't have anything to reference to? Social validation provides you a lot of information, obviously not all of it is good info but a good chunk of it is.

I'm curious, what type of girl or woman is most attractive to you right now?

Then I should say I was looking for a more conscious and more living version of myself. The type of person I was, or my range of advantages didn't change. What type of change are you looking for?

You can't think or train yourself to grow a different set of default habits directly. Just like you said that James Clear stuff is straight up bullshit, I don't believe that would work long term for anyone. If you want to develop a genuine set of habits, you need to first expand your range of life experiences. For example, I used to be a very negative and low energy guy. I would just lock myself at home during the weekend and have fun video gaming or netflixing. Then I forced myself to try different things cause I knew I had to change. One of the hobbies that stuck with me was soccer, in which we played twice per week for three hours straight each time. At first a bunch of muscles in my leg and foot felt sore after each game and I was totally exhausted. However the group of people I played with gave me a very competitive vibe, because I did enjoy this sport. Eventually I didn't feel as tired although I was sprinting for most of the three hours. This type of exercise lifted up my inner frequency and I didn't feel as low energy as often as I was before. So I didn't crave to porn, video games, and netflix series that much anymore. I also forced myself into other different social circles, like playing Texas poker and going to these live roleplaying game meetup groups. I met and became friends with a bunch of people I didn't know and wasn't necessarily interesting to me at first. But this type of hobby gradually allowed me to appreciate and enjoy events with different types of people. And gradually through these types of totally non-related activities with the goals I had in mind, I got better at my job and also with girls because I was more calm and could think more consciously. Seems like the path towards Truth is full of twists and turns.

I wonder if the US is really run by only the Trump administration. I mean like would the US really hand the reigns to country's power to only a small bunch of people that got elected by the mob? If we lay out the details, the US is picking apart China's allies one by one. They got Maduro out of the picture and surrounded Cuba. Now they attacked Iran and if they take Kharg Island, China will lose 20% of its oil import in the foreseeable future. This could skyrocket their manufacturing costs. Regarding the strait of Hormuz, it is possible that the US actually wants to shut down the strait intentionally so its own oil exports can replace the exports from the Middle East. However they can't tell the world this is actually what they want, because the US's allies would totally be pissed off as this heavily impacts their economy (like South Korea, Japan, and many other countries). So the talks here basically is only to calm the markets while the US prepares for more precision strikes or even ground troops into Iran. They'll blow Iran up into a state of civil war between its internal factions, that will shut the strait of Hormuz for sure. Meanwhile causing the oil price to skyrocket, which not only benefits the US, but is also a gift to Russia. Russia and Ukraine actually want out of the Ukrainian war but Russia lacks the step down. The US is giving Putin the step down by allowing them to replenish their chest from the rising oil cost for the near future along with possibly other incentives. You can see now that Putin has agreed to a ceasefire and another peace talk with Zelensky, if the US can bring Zelensky to the table which they probably will (US can decide to withdraw all remaining support if Zelensky decides not to enter the talk). Bessent most likely wants to end the Ukraine war so the US can continue with the Iranian war, the US would most likely disguise this as supporting Israel and Saudi Arabia to destroy the evil Iran. Eventually the US will get enough cards to force China to buy more US treasuries.

Trump followed Netanyahu blindly into striking Iran and killing those leaders, and now he wants out of this war. I have no idea on how hard the IRGC's stance is on the current situation, the strait of Hormuz could basically be shut forever. Does anyone know if the IRGC could reach a deal with the US, like if they got all their sanctions lifted for a number of years, would the IRGC agree to stuff like this and reopen the strait? And if the US does take over Kharg Island, could Iran really try to destroy all energy, oil, and desalinization plants in the Middle East?

This! Why don't we ourselves create something meaningful into existence, do this and the world will become very not boring.

So basically most people in Tel Aviv are in underground bunkers? No one can go to work? Does your company allow you to work online?

Obviously this is all a shitshow as the nuclear deal would have been much better for everyone, except for China maybe. However if Trump can pull off the Iranian regime change like he did in Venezuela, that would be one hell of a job. Just wondering to what extent would Iran retaliate and what the further consequences would be.

The US is going back to the Monroe Doctrine, stepping down from its hegemony of the world status. It probably doesn't have an option, so the world will become multilateral. The three main hemispheres of power will fight each other, revealing the dog eat dog nature of humans.

The US is preparing to attack Iran, and the media outlets are owned by the big companies. The 1% want to silently move their wealth before the attack begins, also they don't want to cause unnecessary panic or outcry.

Not here to offend anyone, but I think Trump's policies are just very straightforward. He doesn't think about much details in his plan to deport illegal immigrants, he just wants to get illegal migrants out in the most brutal and effective manner. Now you got ICE.

Are there any Trump supporters here? Can you explain why you support Trump's stance on the ICE agent killing the woman?
