America: children, totally absent a mother’s attention, housed in and driven to boredom and immobility in schools, causing them extensive developmental brain damage, who then are so desperate for stimulation they cling to consumer goods, only to find later in life that they are alone, unwanted, unuseful, and easily buried and forgotten.

YOUR MIND CAN’T FEEL PAIN IT CAN HOWEVER FEEL DEPRESSION – THE MIND’S VERSION OF CHRONIC PAIN.
people who work long hours, without walking or running, under information saturation, and artificial light saturation in seasonally dark climates will develop majority depressive symptoms in the population, requiring anti-depressant drugs to relieve the pain (depression is pain). Underclass workers will develop chronic pain and require opiates. In other words, we are working ourselves to death, because chronic bodily pain and depression are just two words for the same symptoms produced by the same causes. Your mind can’t feel pain from exhaustion it can only feel depression.

WHAT LESSON DO OUR WOMEN TEACH US? We live In a world where we have worked hard
WHAT LESSON DO OUR WOMEN TEACH US?
We live In a world where we have worked hard to ensure that women were no longer stolen for sex, offspring, and labor. A world where women were no longer stolen for slaves, prostitution, and labor. A world where women were no longer sold for sex, labor, and reproduction by their fathers to increase kin, relations, property. A world where women were merely married to men of their own volition in exchange for sex, labor, and reproduction. A world where women are freed of all labor except child-bearing. A world where women need no longer even choose a man to own them, their sex, their labor and their reproduction with some promise of longevity; fear a man they will be sold to for the same with some hope of longevity. Where they will not be captured and sold for the same, regardless of their longevity – only their replacement cost. And where they are stolen, for sex, and labor, regardless of their burdensome offspring.
And it is in this world we have made our women turn against us. Within one generation of obtaining the vote women raised arms through the proxy of government, against us, and all we have built.
What lesson do our women teach us?

TRY NOT TO LOOK TOUGH AND ACT STUPID I’ve had a bunch of these the past few days
TRY NOT TO LOOK TOUGH AND ACT STUPID
I’ve had a bunch of these the past few days. I’ll translate them as this: “Don’t talk tough, I’m tougher than you, I’m more alpha, and I want alpha attention, so here are my peacock feathers”. Animal talk. Monkey words.
—-“Your “interesting” essay showed up on my feed yesterday. When I read such rambunctious call to action, I immediately get interested in the persona. After reading your bio I had two questions: 1) When is the last time you lifted, ran or explosively sprinted? 2) What would you do if, during a test of physical prowess, I slapt that steroid inhaler out of your hands while you are gasping for air? I’m thinking you would Doolittle.”—Andi Mell
1) This morning I sprinted. It’s spring. It sucked. Explosino isn’t my problem. Hiking isn’t a problem. Toggling between rest and exertion is the problem. Lifting isn’t available to me at the moment.)
As if it mattered, It doesn’t. It’s a kind of stupid question isn’t it? A sort of claim of equality that doesnt exist? Besides, I’m willing to fight anyone who challenges me over an argument. It’s part of the ethic. But you sure you wanna take a risk with someone that much smarter than you are?
2) You could have done the same to Marx right? would that have saved 100M deaths? Who is more dangerous? A Marx , an Eisenhower, or a Guy with six inches and thirty pounds on me? I mean, It makes you look kind of stupid right?
I always think these are childish comments. I mean, who started the revolution? a guy with a gun or a guy with a pen? Who was more powerful? Rousseau or an infrantryman? Who was a better warrior, Napoleon (who was about my build) or some british soldier?
I know my job. My job is to produce for my people to conduct war, what marx produced to war against my people. Strength in war is the result of strategy, logistics, and numbers.
Man up to that if you can. (Not gonna happen.)
Otherwise be a good boy, and learn something.

—“I’ve begun to “go with my gut” more frequently. I’ve become far too aware that my “reasoning” is mostly a post-hoc justification of the motivators in my body and mind that aren’t articulated. My emotions, my subconscious beliefs, my instincts. There is little value to the reasoning, as it’s almost entirely a fiction.”— Sean Lester

CONSENT? We can’t hold people to specific implicit consent because we can’t real
CONSENT?
We can’t hold people to specific implicit consent because we can’t really state that they understood what they were doing. What we tend to do is hold people account for continuous implicit consent because they can’t say they didn’t understand.
this is how the law works today.
You can demonstrate your consent by benefiting from something. You cannot demonstrate your consent to some specific agreement that you may or may not have understood. This is why board members and all sorts of organiations vote. It’s a claim that ‘I understand’.
This is not true in government and that’s a problem. If liablity were applicable to polticians like it is to boards and officers then we woould ahve 1% of the political problems that we do.
