  1. Iran made threats against Israel to wipe them off the map. You mean like this photo? Didn't Israel wipe Palestine off the map? Maybe I dreamt that up
  2. Exactly it is a perceived threat that we don't actually know how Iran would behave vs a real threat that we already know how Israel behaves
  3. That's why I said the parents would vote as a family unit. But that vote shouldn't be withheld until the kids turn 18
  4. Those kids are going to grow up and get a vote anyways so why wait until 18? For what reason should they need to wait to turn a certain age. What is the difference of a 17 year old in democracy vs a 18 year old in democracy. Might as well give them their vote at birth You can be poor and have kids and nobody said anything about getting money from the government. Maybe if they let the poor people with kids have more votes then they can steer society away from oligarchy and turn the tides to make having kids more affordable
  5. What happens if kids finally are able to vote but everything is shit by then. You miss the point of what I am saying. If a country has 100 million people and 10 million of them have 10 kids each but 90 million of them have 0 kids each then who does the future really belong to?
  6. @Daniel Balan Because I believe that people with larger families have more stake than someone who is just responsible for only themselves
  7. @Daniel Balan I didn't mention this but the overall point I was trying to make is if democracy really is one vote per individual person then however many units of people are in a family should be able to cast a vote for the future of their nation. So even if the parents are selfish it shouldn't matter because selfish people without families get a vote too
  8. So many things could happen depending on many factors. Impossible to answer this question
  9. I think Charles Manson had an awakening experience but didn't have a guide to help him integrate it. Search Charles Manson wisdom on YouTube
  10. @Emerald Check out Nicole Michelle on YouTube. She has a very large catalog of videos on how men choose women. She is 99% right every time
  11. Right but ego is one weird voice telling you random things. So remove the multiple and the paranoia. Would you agree on that. If so, is mental illness just ego multiplied with itself
  12. But until you wake up to ego isn't your ego by default mentally ill. In the video can't that guy just ignore the voices because they are telling him the pizza is poison it should be obvious to ignore
  13. But whats the difference between that mental illness video in the blog and just ego. Because ego or low self esteem will say similar negative things but in the video it was definitely more paranoid when saying the pizza was poison as if someone was out to get him
  14. @Rafael Thundercat Why is your aim history if colonialism is still alive and well today? I was pointing out the western propaganda of "we are inferior to nobody, the bad things we did such as slavery and war everyone else did so we are equal to everyone, and the good things we do such as all the stuff Basman listed and standard of life we are superior to everyone" which is at the root of it all. But in my opinion if there really are levels of development it's not as easy as bringing up western sources to prove that because the west has a history of making discrimination into a science. I am not a scholar and haven't studied all that stuff but I am awake and disillusioned to what the West truly is and I have seen it first hand. Once you see it you can't unsee it. The civil rights movement is just a drop in the bucket but all the issues always repeat the same patterns and habits so if you know those you will see all the issues out of that lens
  15. Hard to compete with Amazon but yeah I agree with you
  16. I have no problem calling people of the global south yellow, brown, or black people Let me guess. The West is superior in all these? Uhh you gotta be able to think deeper than this to understand what's really going on
  17. You don't have to put names on it such as developmental levels to explain that. Everyone knows the differences between children and adult. It just is what it is In that case then I guess racism would reflect someone's level of development. But then it would go back to what I was saying before that how racism works and solutions to racism is different in the west than anywhere else
  18. What does more or less developed even mean? Who said that person has to change themselves? Why change at all?
