They are not Marxists, but many of the liberal ideologues in Washington are Trotskyites, and they are pushing towards a one world government. I recall a video of Soros talking to a group and telling them how he wants a one world government and currency. If anything, at least he was honest, but the video has now been removed. Soros does have a messianic view of himself with his one world government, and like all ideologues from Lenin to Hitler and his thousand year Reich, he is indifferent towards human lives under the belief that the end justifies the means. The problem is, if someone is indifferent towards human lives for whatever reason, then are they psychologically fit to decide anything - never the less something that will have an affect on everyone in the world? I don't think so. H U B R I S Take that you fools of misery. For we the gods of lofty see, are watching you from our great height and snicker at the motley sight of lesser beings, not as bright as we. For as you know we're keen and wise, that's why we delve in tricks and lies, so we can rule your land and State and be the masters of your fate. For unlike you such lowly fools who follow banal moral rules. We make our own, for it's our right. And why we reign in our great height; and not on earth, but in our stead of hubris and of bloated head - Jeannette
This is no less goofy than what Tejas posts. You're both indulging paranoid thinking about evil cabals plotting against their own country. I mean, come on. One world government? Give me a break.
Why fight it. China has always going to be taking over the joint at some point. They've been diligently beavering away to that end for decades. While everyone else was lost in petty squabbles and hedonism, they've stayed true to course like a billion little machines.
But you are not a chimp...dolphin...etc.. are you? There is a good chance you are human...so why not start behaving like a human instead of an animal? Would that really be so difficult for you? Would that be too much to ask of you?
Yes there are endless wars and suffering...but so called "Christians" are part of the problem... not the solution. Christians are not against warring and killing at all...they even refer to those things as "righteous" if they are done according to their own misguided preferences. There are so called "Christians" in this country that even wish for...and are preparing for...a civil war.
There's this curious word, 'humanity' that is used in strange ways, ie 'Man's lack of humanity to his fellow man.' etc Reading yesterday of the first albino chimp born in the wild. It was torn apart by the other chimps. If you see humans do something like that you need to say, 'These humans are following their humanity.' War is humanity, stealing is humanity, love is humanity, intolerance is our humanity. Humans put tickets on themselves. Our humanity is a mixed bag.
Wouldn't your idea then excuse atrocities like those of Hitler and Stalin as just..."following their humanity"....? That seems a fair description of human behavior... but that does not mean it is their true nature.....it only proves they are insane. Definition of humanity 1 : compassionate, sympathetic, or generous behavior or disposition : the quality or state of being humane bespeaking humanity for the enemy in the midst of a bloody struggle— C. G. Bowers
The definition of humanity is correct, but misleading. The word 'humanity' means all the good things but none of the bad things. But war IS part of our humanity - and always has been. Yes, Hitler and Stalin were acting out of their human nature. It's the same nature as you and I possess.
Then you are admitting that what you refer to as "human nature" is in fact.....insanity. But where did you get such an idea? Do you really think that because humans have acted out their crazy ideas for so long that it should be excepted as their true nature? Then why bother to correct you own children at all? Just let them do whatever they want... it is their nature....correct? Can you not see any flaw in your thinking at all??
Could you teach a cat not to play wih a mouse? No, beause the cat has a nature - a nice nature and a bad nature. But it's still a nature. If I had Stalin's job I might start out full of optimism and good will, but as sure as night follows day I will probably get paranoid about others wanting my job, people slacking on the job, things which I don't yet possess, a discontent for what I have and so on. Yes, by all means moderate the bad side of children's nature - it helps big time. But that nature is there below the surface, and given the right condition you have Lord of the Flies.
You don't need to teach animals those things..... 73 Unusual Animal Friendships.... https://www.boredpanda.com/unusual-...ckgo&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=organic .....you don't need to teach humans those things either. It seems they have a choice. Their behavior is not mandatory. Human behavior can change as shown by psychotherapy. The problem seems to be that most do not know they have a choice... they just ignore the insanity....and call it "human nature."
Interesting, this is Rousseau's 'blank slate' theory. It was employed by the Communists in their 'war on human nature.' It was felt that, like John Lennon's song 'Imagine' that with some imagination you could rid the world of greed, hate, hierarchy etc..The effort to achieve this led to the deaths of a few hundred million people - and even more greed, hate and hierarchy. Cute photo btw, it's quite popular too.
Now you're blaming John Lennon ideas for atrocities committed by others? Where are you getting your information from....your own imagination would be my guess. You seem to be saying that people like John Lennon are a problem..... so how do you see yourself as not being part of the problem?
I am not blaming Lennon for inspiring these ideas. I blame him for promoting them, or not using his influence to disabuse impressionable people of socialist ideals. But yes, John Lennon WAS a problem - everything from mainstreaming drugs to Moaist thinking.
But your own "thinking" is not the answer either....is it? Insisting that everything remain just the way it is....wont solve anything. Change is inevitable and necessary if we are to survive the current problems. Your "religion"....your "love it or leave it"....and your "capitalistic" attitude is a major contribution...not a solution...to current situation. Your claiming that...."John Lennon WAS a problem" suggests you have simply jumped onto the "Fox News/Trumpist" bandwagon. We all need to work together....but that is not your intention at all....is it.
Don't know what Fox news is. It's all a matter of proportion - public screwing (in bed with Yoko on the sidewalk) drug taking example and anarcho Maoist thinking is a big part of the problem of America today. Won't be long and America will be as relevant as a world power as Portugal and Spain are. Change can be good, but you better make sure you know what you are changing if you value your freedom and standard of living, not to mention influence in the world.
The change of the left won’t solve any of those. Let’s decriminalize everything so there’s more ex cons on the streets, then demonize police and cut their funding, then take away guns from the citizens. sounds like a great managed rout out of all this violence lol
Would be too much, and won't happen. USA only attacks small countries without nuclear capacity. And China knows better than to attack US with it's military. It knows it can't win a military war. Its focus is on the belt and road initiative and other economic strategies, and it's working.
We don't really have any military assets to effectively counter China's nuclear arsenal. The "plan" (reminiscent of Biden's Afghan evacuation 'plan') is to let blue cities soak up the hits and nuke them back. I suppose there's an outside chance that THAAD or Aegis BMD could get a few of the missiles, and maybe our GBIs could get a few more, but that's it. China is building more missile silos than we could ever hope to stop. The whole point of our nuclear triad that we've spent billions building over many decades is that we don't have to deploy nukes in places like Japan for them to be effective. In fact, they'd probably be less effective in Japan, where they would be in range of many of China's strike capabilities, giving them a shot at taking them out in a first strike.
China has a huge labor shortage coming up soon. And they do not like diversity which means they will be taking over Hong Kong, Vietnam and Taiwan
Religion and all their silly rules and explanations aren't real. There is no holy spirit filling anybody and nobody gets grace. You never found it bizarre that your loving god allows children to get abused in the first place? What about all the ones being sexually abused and beaten? What about the ones being sold into human trafficking? If there is a god, he's a major apathetic jerk. Conversely, if what you say is true (it's not), and people can be forgiving and not seek revenge for harm done to them or their loved ones because they are *filled with grace* why do we not use that same explanation for all the people locked in prison and the horrible ones out walking around that have never been caught and imprisoned? (saying they are filled with "Satan") I have done quite a bit to help in each community where I lived. People always assume I'm a Christian. I'm an atheist. And, the argument that atheist don't know morality because we don't know god is patently false. Hands down, no question that Christians are the most hateful, judgmental, self-righteous, unhelpful and unloving people I have met in my entire life. I'd take a straight shooter atheist or agnostic over anybody trapped in some glorified fairy tale about Sky Daddy punishing the kids he created for making a mistake and then losing his sh!t thousands of years later and drowning them all. No wonder all of you are so awful and hypocritical. Your main parent is dysfunctional and toxic.
