  1. ^THIS!!! Oh so this!

    Taxation is theft. It just so happens I too benefit from the civil infrastructure that's paid for with it. But, it's still theft and enforced with armed men that wont hesitate to throw me a cage should I not pay my taxes.

    Once you get socialism via excessive taxation, you eventually run out of other people's money! Please see any socialist/communist nation that fell. It burns me up that Venezuela is a live teachable moment for the rest of humanity...again (as if the Soviet Union and Cuba wasn't already).

    Stupid stupid people. All you fucks that vote Democrat can suffer in the misery you will bring to us all!!!!

  2. These "bugs" effect some ARM and Apples' A series chips as well. In fact, the real problem is that it's a silicon bug insomuch as a philosophical flaw in the paradigm of computer science as to how to properly execute data.

    This isn't going away without a major change in the way data is executed in close concert between the CPU and software at a fundamental level.

    Question: Does mass reside within space time, or does it displace it?

    Could gravity be a pull, or a push? Perhaps gravity is nothing more than a manifestation of mass and space/time fighting for displacing each other. Of course, I'm not a physicist; hence my question.

    They don't much care if they kill their own Han Chinese by the tens of millions, why would even they care about foreign devils?

    My theory is this - China knows that if enough of their own population falls, they could be left vulnerable to invasion for regime change via outside sources. So if a pandemic takes them down, it's to their benefit the rest of the world become too debilitated to attempt such a move on China.

    The difference between any war is outcome. It doesn't really matter how it starts, or why. What matter is how it ends and whom is in control; and rarely does it end well. That's for sure.

    So before anyone wants to pull that trigger and go down that road, you'd better be desperate as a nation could be jumping from the frying pan and into the fire.

    What grounds are there for stopping this information from being published?

    It's really simple. I've said it before, and I'll say it again - "The printing press was revolution, the printed gun will cause one!"

    Statist nations are going to state.

  10. Globalists derive their power from both capitalism and government. It's really hard to point to capitalism being the sole culprit here when we don't really practice it. What he have is collusion, AKA crony capitalism. It's a bastard fusion of both public and private in all the worst ways possible. That said, it's still not nearly as bad as pure socialism/communism as indicated in past recorded history.

    In other words - The government should be a referee calling out the BS that capitalist enterprises engage in. But we don't have that, because the gov is also an active player.

  11. Xi is a proud Communist whereas the Globalists are Communists (whom see themselves as the Elite group of authoritatives to run the show), but too cowardly to admit it.

    The Communists are really of (ironies) feudal group. They create a caste based society. The first tier are the party members and those that serve them. And then, there's the serfs that suck air and are best to be out of their way.

    The Serfs are the ones that get fucked the hardest. If you're not contributing to the rightous cause of "Communism", YOU WILL BE PURGED! And 100 MILLION purged there was under Communism. At worst, you could be a nice person, and will be purged because of some malthusian reason that robots and AI to better to serve the elite...and you have no reason to exist but to get in the way.

    Mark my words. If Communism takes hold - and I believe it will - the human population will be engineered in such as way as to reduce the count to 500 million on Earth or less. That's the future of humanity. Managed oppression for the elite, and China is leading the way with the globalist sure to follow in the shadows.

  16. Revelation 13:16 - 13:18

    [16] And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: [17] And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.

    Per Alexander Fraser Tytler, it's all part of the cycle.

    A democracy is always temporary in nature; it simply cannot exist as a permanent form of government. A democracy will continue to exist up until the time that voters discover that they can vote themselves generous gifts from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates who promise the most benefits from the public treasury, with the result that every democracy will finally collapse due to loose fiscal policy, which is always followed by a dictatorship.

    The average age of the world's greatest civilizations from the beginning of history has been about 200 years. During those 200 years, these nations always progressed through the following sequence:

    -From bondage to spiritual faith;
    -From spiritual faith to great courage;
    -From courage to liberty;
    -From liberty to abundance;
    -From abundance to complacency;
    -From complacency to apathy;
    -From apathy to dependence;
    -From dependence back into bondage.

    So yeah, Western Civilization is fucked. That is what happens when people turn away from God.

    Pride comes before the fall, and pride is the greatest sin of all. Yes, we are fucked!!!

    We get space marines when we develop AI and robots. Space is far too harsh of an environment for fleshy creatures. Both for their exposure to radiation, and the inefficiencies in engineering to protect them. It's just added weight, complexity, and risk to have human being in outer space.

    For 99.99% of the time, Space Force will be on the ground as drone operators. The rest will be AI/Robotics space.
