Re: Stupid reactionary thoughts

Unions elect people to be executives of their company - (this is apparently a very stupid idea according to r8z)

All industries are unionized so they can actually bargain with their company over wages and working conditions - (Ayn Rand disapproves, this is a stupid idea)

AHAHAHA

Stupid reactionary thoughts

Here we go: I want no funding in politics from outside groups and political campaigns to be funded equally (r8z says this is pure extremism and is not enlightened) I want nationalized healthcare so people don't have to pay 8 dollars per alcohol swab and to make sure life saving drugs don't cost an a...

Re: How optimistic are you about the near-term future? [2021 - 2055]

This is one of the worst periods in history for imperial rivalries That isn't true, though. The world is clearly more peaceful today than in the past. Wartime deaths are gradually trending towards zero. There is cooperation on many issues. The world is so interconnected, and so reliant on internati...

Re: China vrs taiwan violence and war

What are the odds the greatest technology hub of the planet would be right beside a dictatorship ready to blow it up to conquer it. This is very unfortunate. Now with a weakened western world is just a matter of when and not if. im going to hold my tongue on most of this but since when was Taiwan a...

Re: Personal chat thread

Got a nice lava lamp and have been working out. I reached a bench of 145 yesterday as my 1 rep max. Im getting up there but still not where i'd like to be.

1/10, we are clearly on our way to the implementation of a social credit score in the western world plus the looming threat of the Great Reset. 2 years ago, I would have said 7/10 but things have changed.

Re: USA News and Discussions

Actually a good idea tbh. Too bad most workers are quitting because of low pay and bad worker rights. The solution is to give into worker demands. Natty guards will only be a bandaid on a wound.

Re: Prediction China will lose the "cold war"

There is no doubt China would steamroll Taiwan in any war. An EMP detonated above Taiwan followed by a missile barrage against key targets such as airfields and Taiwan would be a sitting duck. How could they not be when China spends more than 25 times as much as Taiwan does on the military (underst...

Re: Prediction China will lose the "cold war"

An ironic thing to say in light of several of your own posts. Same could be said about you. After all. you seriously believe a country with far higher industrial and manufacturing capacity would lose to a country with a fraction of the same capacity. I'm sorry you can't see beyond western imperalis...

My relative has a incurable disease that is 100% non-fatal but permanently reduces quality of life. Everything tires her now and she has lost her muscle mass and gained anxiety for nearly everything.

Re: If an afterlife was found to exist

Some time ago, I watched a movie about a scientist who discovered that an afterlife exists. However, this discovery causes lots of people to kill themselves. I remember I didn't watch all of this movie, but I am not sure why, but anyway, what do you would happen if an afterlife was found to exist. ...
