You’ve edited this comment at least 3 times since I’ve replied, each time with more random shit that doesn’t make any sense. You just keep thumbing thru a thesaurus and replacing words with bigger words you clearly don’t understad.
This is probably why your posts/comments don’t make sense. Stop trying to sound intelligent and focus on communicating your point. But I don’t have the patience to ever try and explain anything to you again.
Best of luck.
Literally the opposite of a turning test… Which it’s pretty clear you don’t understand those to begin with…
And has nothing to do with your post
Why are people upvoting that gibberish? Do they just don’t understand it and are blindly up voting?
That doesn’t make any logical sense because even very young children are adept at pretending not to be human…
Like, I know what you’re trying to say, I’m just struggling to understand how you think it’s sensical
It’s crazy how many people try to be smug about this.
All you’re doing is telling everyone it took shit this blatant and obvious for you to notice if you think this is a new problem.
I understand being ignorant of another country’s system of government, but how do you not know all the fucked up shit that’s been happening before this to think it’s new?
The “big 3” have been doing this shit for centuries, and before that it was just different countries.
Shuffling the countries around like you want to won’t solve shit. It just perpetuates the system itself…
Have you put any thought into this?
I think this study simply looked for generalizations of who would be most susceptible to CTs and wasn’t trying to focus on proving who is a ‘believer’.
The foundation of the study was flawed because “conspiratorial belief” isn’t always a bad thing, because real life conspiracies are a thing.
If they were looking for problematic conspiratorial beliefs, they should have used questions that correctly isolated those.
This research is completely worthless, which is so rare it’s almost impressive.
I’ll admit that I don’t really know how that works, or how it’s enforced, or whatever
They almost always mean “economic sanctions”.
Cutting them off from “western banking”…
Essentially not letting them buy/sell any stocks in the western market.
Which unfortunately is headquartered in NYC, explaining why it’s the NY Stock Exchange.
There are others, Europe has 5 worth over a trillion each and some others, Asia has the NICA index. But the American NYSE is worth over 25 trillion. It’s the big one.
But trump personally would be very hard to sanction in other markets, because he’s so shady banking institutions usually won’t deal with him. It’s why he pivoted to crypto.
He does have some money in NYSE, but that’s overseen by the SEC, and trump won’t sanction himself.
Ironically what we’d see is tarrifs. America doesn’t make shit, and can’t afford to buy a lot of stuff now. So other big buyers can pressure the “producer countries” into marking up anything that goes in/out of America.
To reach their conclusions, the study authors focused on the idea of cover-ups, the belief that organizations and governments deliberately hide the truth from the public. They surveyed 253 people from several countries, asking them to rate statements such as “politicians usually do not tell us the true motives for their decisions” and “government agencies closely monitor all citizens.”
Uh…
Someone should let the researchers out of the lab occasionally…
If anyone disagreed with:
“politicians usually do not tell us the true motives for their decisions” and “government agencies closely monitor all citizens.”
Then they either live in some random Nordic utopia, or they’re the crazy ones.
Like, an international child rape ring involving multiple world leaders is the biggest news story of the decade, but only two people went to prison over it and one is about to get pardoned.
It’s 2026 and you’re crazy if you don’t believe in at least one conspiracy.
Always have…
If you’re over 145 (where a normal test stops), it’s only like 1 in 750, but it means you’re over 30 points above around 80% of the population.
30 points is the line where communication is noticably difficult.
Being smart is like being tall. A little over average is great, but once you’re statistically insignificant you’re still jammed in the same hole as everyone else even tho you clearly don’t fit.
Like, that was the whole point of the movie. It wasn’t a warning about the future it’s how an intelligent person has always viewed the world.
The drug abuse correlation with high IQ isn’t just “novelty seeking”, it’s actively and intentionally getting on everyone else’s level, at least for a little bit.
His leadership position was voted on before the DNC chair.
So his threats to cut off funding to the state of any Dems that wouldn’t back him still had some teeth.
It doesn’t now, mainly because the DNC immediately jumped into the largest twin esture into state parties, ever.
He’s been a lame duck all but maybe a month of this senate leadership term, and will almost certainly lose it next year.
If he doesn’t, it’s a bad sign.
You need an LHD to do that, and the Iwo is already on its way back.
What are you talking about?
There’s no American troops there now.
If you’re arguing there’s going to be a response or separate action in the future, yes…
That’s how time works, there’s always something happen, obviously something will happen next
When you get the time it’s worth reading up on, super interesting and I’m surprised there hasn’t been a big movie about it despite America being the bad guys.
That was an invasion, not a kidnapping.
The first hint is the situation was called “invasion of Panama”
Nah, Hawaii was an invasion, I believe the Queen was travelling to DC.
She left Hawaii as a queen and when she got to Hawaii to negotiate a treaty, she was told Hawaii was already an American territory
Approximately 24,000 troops descended upon Panama in December 1989, beginning a weekslong siege of the country that scattered the government and military officials.
That’s an invasion, not a kidnapping…
No, this is different and completely unprecedented.
We went into a foreign country, abducted their leader, and brought him back to America to be tried under our justice system for laws he was never subject to for crimes he almost had nothing to do with.
I’d love to see a source for America abducting the leader of a country we’re not at war with, and bringing them to America for trial.
It might have already happened…
Capturing a foreign leader you’re not at war with like this is a huge fucking deal, but it hasn’t even been 24 hrs yet, we can’t act like there won’t be a response.
Not anything overt, but our election system is sloppy as fuck.
Why wouldn’t foreign governments start using all the loopholes to pay (relatively) nothing to limit his powers in midterms and get rid of him in the presidential? A couple million thru a PAC isn’t even really breaking any laws, and compared to the cost of the chaos from trump, it’s a no brainer decision.
It’s why turnout for primaries is so important. We have to ensure that the people who make it to the general are going to be good in office.
No, he said US based oil companies will…
From one of the many other posts about this:
In his remarks, Trump did not clarify what it would mean for the U.S. to “run” Venezuela but said that U.S. oil companies were prepared to make major investments in the country.
“We’re going to have our very large United States oil companies, the biggest anywhere in the world, go in, spend billions of dollars, fix the badly broken infrastructure, the oil infrastructure, and start making money for the country,” he said.
Patriotism is fine, like it’s even a good thing.
Because it’s about being proud of your country, for the good shit it’s doing.
Nationalism is bad, because it ignores reality and is just belligerent yelling that their country is the best while disregarding facts and repeating propaganda.
Like, Norewegians are proud to be from Norway, because they have a great society that looks after the weakest, that’s patriotic and something we should strive towards.
That’s different than a trump supporter flying flags and laughing at how much people with empathy are upset, that’s nationalism.
There’s a reason we have two separate words for it, but the fascists keep wanting to erase the differences in usage.
I mean, there’s a shit ton of variables…
You need to look specifically for people going from your current country, and the destination will change a lot of things.
Sometimes it’s very easy, other impossibly difficult.
