I'm waiting for someone to start one that would end global poverty instead of building palaces, do they take suggestions?

Aware of how social structures affect people. For example, people tend to have more productive lives if they're raised in safer and healthier communities. Another big one is how the prosperity of everyone is in a large part due to society as a whole and not just due to the individual's actions.

The economic fallout should help the environment for long after he's gone, if anyone wants a bright side take.

For those of you who live somewhere other than your ancestral region, do you feel more connection to your ancestral cultures or to the cultures that previously inhabited the area you call home? For those who live in their ancestral area, do you feel much connection to your ancestral cultures? Everyone's ancestors moved around a little bit, but some a lot more than others. I've lived in my region my entire life and I spend a lot of time enjoying nature and learning about how people lived with nature here, I feel connection with previous inhabitants of my home and despite having an extensive genealogical record I do not feel much connection with my ancestral cultures. This appears odd to me on some level but makes perfect sense when I think of living in the same location as others that have lived so intimately with nature here. I suppose we're all ultimately from the same original ancestors anyway, but do you have a stronger attachment to your location's history than your genealogy?

Do you know of others that have reached the level of awareness you refer to?

With all these religions helping us, why isn't everyone enlightened? It appears that only the creators of the religions are the only ever enlightened ones, and they became enlightened without the religion in their life, being they're the ones that create it. To escape suffering, Venmo me $5 and take a tablespoon of salt in the name of God, you're welcome.

So, you can make one up where everyone owes you money?

And you don't think this thought right here is illusion? "Mistake" doesn't imply bad or something you shouldn't do? What does 'bad' mean to you, it doesn't mean undesirable, something someone doesn't like?

I think there's always good reason to have a years worth of food, and a decent amount of basic supplies and tools on hand. Droughts and natural disasters still happen even. There are some really good preserved foods like pickled eggs, sauerkraut, sardines, and then there are things that store forever, wheat berry stores for 30 years or so.

People wouldn't need to follow you if it made sense, the confusion part is what allows you to control people.

I wonder how much money they're spending on this war on ghosts. https://www.thedailybeast.com/trumps-migrant-crackdown-has-more-bark-than-bite-experts-say/

Ya, so prove to the believers that he lied to them. People aren't going to keep following someone that they know lied to them once. Prove to moderates that he's a dangerous liar. Seems to me like he tee'd us up for an easy slam dunk campaign, it's so thoroughly disproven, instead of doing that though progressives just cornered deniers as cult members and racists, and then wanted to imprison and prevent their politician from even running, that's ABC authoritarianism from progressives that Trump voters saw. You can overlook a lot of things in a candidate if you feel oppressed by the other party. Even just you wanting him in prison, look at their perspective, voting for Trump is voting against authoritarianism that even you have said the u.s. could easily fall into.

No. 23–939. Argued April 25, 2024—Decided July 1, 2024 "Held: Under our constitutional structure of separated powers, the nature of Presidential power entitles a former President to absolute immunity from criminal prosecution for actions within his conclusive and preclusive constitutional authority. And he is entitled to at least presumptive immunity from prosecution for all his official acts. There is no immunity for unofficial acts. Pp. 5–43. (a) This case is the first criminal prosecution in our Nation’s history of a former President for actions taken during his Presidency. Determining whether and under what circumstances such a prosecution may proceed requires careful assessment of the scope of Presidential power under the Constitution. The nature of that power requires that a former President have some immunity from criminal prosecution for official acts during his tenure in office. At least with respect to the President’s exercise of his core constitutional powers, this immunity must be absolute. As for his remaining official actions, he is entitled to at least presumptive immunity. Pp. 5" Official acts are immune, unofficial acts like election interference or assassination are not official acts. Ya, so just debunk his claims, Georgia, Nevada and Arizona elections were ran by Republicans even, it's easy to debunk the election denial, Trump himself had his chosen forensic auditors that found no problems, just say those things.

I don't support Republican policies, but I think it's important to try to actually understand their perspectives rather than just attacking them, the U.S. debt is monumental, they're trying to cut spending, they believe raising taxes slows the economy, this is not a far-fetched belief and slowing the economy would make it harder to reduce the debt, the U.S. is essentially a ponzi scheme where the dollar would crash if economic growth doesn't continue.

Nothing that happened on january 6 threatened the election, even if they would have killed pence and pelosi it would not have made a difference. I'm not referring to an insurrectionist, by rebellion leader i meant if the election really was rigged, the people at jan 6 thought it was. I mean someone that verbally protests the election, that is the extent of what Trump did, all he's done is said the election is rigged and from that you want him to not be able to run, so if trump rigs an election no one that claims it's rigged should be allowed to run unless they have good evidence? Say they speak at a protest at the capitol that gets violent like jan 6, say they call a secretary of state like trump did in georgia. To me it's obvious they should be able to run in a free country, election denial should be allowed, If it's so obvious that it wasn't rigged then put forth the evidence, shoot down their evidence, that's it, to me allowing that is an advantage to the peoples-will party, it should be easy to show how corrupt he is, show it to the people, you said "overwhelming evidence" about his criminal case, you could easily just campaign on that and should easily win if it's "overwhelming evidence", I don't believe it was even evident he committed crime myself, and I campaigned against Trump all three elections. Trump is not granted immunity for crime in office, that is more lying rage bait you've been listening to. What political commentators do you listen to and read?
