Does the world need unnecessary prior restraint threatchill politically correct rewording school over potentially alternate nongroupthink and or counter data analysis or viewpoint freespeech necessary to an open debate as requested by OP. Unfortunately many entities in the world trend such control when incorporated, $50-100+k salaries start being depended upon, YouTube channels censored to keep tidy public message, bury evidences, etc. Cigarettes were hide to cause cancer for decades, what if people knew those facts? Tor is increasingly analyzed by analysts over years due its mass, others care for its users too, etc. Resulting in growing public knowledge of effective adversarial research and exploit of its design and operations limitations, assumptions, oversights, etc. That is reasonable, good process, and occurs with all apps throughout their lifetime. Let all networks not shy from fact and supposition, as they can be good to know, and lead to good improvement in all networks.

Fw: horrific murder suicide - Warriors rugby league player Rowan Baxter
by Zig the N.g 21 Feb '20

21 Feb '20

Now here's some food for thought. Just remember, the only thing to think here is that women never do no wrong, and the things they do can never contribute to outcomes like this - it is the men who are (equally) purely and (equitably) only responsible for such situations since men are more equal than women and therefore evil. Even with presumption of guilt against the man, unjust family "law" courts and presumptive "protection from violence orders", men simply have no right to see their own children if the woman decides - and she can move away, move in with anyone, and rightfully deny her children their right to see their father, irrespective of all court orders and any justice or rights of anyone other than the woman. This is the most important foundation of democracy - women are irreproachable.

Officially Approved Terrorism
by Ryan Carboni 20 Feb '20

20 Feb '20

You will know when terrorism is officially approved when the media reports on it. Naturally I am suspicious of the lack of reporting on the Georgia Guidestones, very bold statement, global depopulation? All news is very limited and misleading nowadays. Things just happen. Our reference points of causality is being undermined. The free press emphasizes cliquish arguments against the other side. I think Rathjen was radicalized by Soros' Extinction Rebellion. https://www.thenational.ae/world/europe/germany-shootings-mass-killer-infec… Just days before the killings Rathjen had posted a video on YouTube containing conspiracy theories. Prosecutors say there were "signs of a xenophobic motive" after videos and a 24-page manifesto was found at his home. The manifesto suggested that people from more than two dozen countries should be "destroyed".

Machiavelli was right
by Ryan Carboni 20 Feb '20

20 Feb '20

Machiavelli was right, it is better to be feared than to be loved. But those who rule by fear often only live for pleasure, and do not share the emotions of those they rule over. The 1934 Business Plot was interesting, a lot of speculation, no convictions. Mobsters say they are concerned, or that this is a problem. A lot of enthusiasm. It is good to have enthusiastic supporters, they have those. All the power to them. I've been grievously harmed by a small number of culpable individuals, tied to other people who would engage in those acts themselves, protected by a larger number of less culpable individuals, protected by an even larger array of institutions. Rest assured, no one is obligated to touch my genitalia and I won't be forcing my way into any your orgies, I don't care for orgies, but you can keep them. In terms of the ongoing Gambit Roulette ( https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/GambitRoulette ), there will be no outcome desirable to me, but things can go many ways.

Plato missed two government types

1. Satyrocracy: governance by orgy 2. apomimarchy: governance by psyop I think two centuries of scholarship on governance and new observations should cause some form of reassessment of the US constitution...

>no sane oligarch No one goes to America to be more sane. People come to America to be more free or to be more rich. What does sanity have to do with anything about America? Oh, this is an interesting blog post about JFK: http://www.90cubedrule.com/in-which-drew-pearson/

[MINISTRY] USA oligarchs go "subtle": WaPo: "It's time to give the elites a bigger say in choosing the president"
by Zig the N.g 19 Feb '20

19 Feb '20

This is one of those moments you try to think of a snarky opener, a hard hitting principle, and/or a short line punch, and the realisation hits that this is an own goal the likes of which is so hard to comprehend, there's nothing one can add: It's time to give the elites a bigger say in choosing the president Washington Post - Opinions https://mobile.twitter.com/Cernovich/status/1230180477056634880/photo/1 https://mobile.twitter.com/LibertyBlitz/status/1230187699899785216/photo/1 This is the memes literally being written without having to meme-ify the facts, an own goal from the WaPo that demonstrates how disconnected the USA "elites" are, like "let them eat cake" and "because we have money, we know better and you should hand over 'democracy' (what's left of it) to us". Amazing times we live in... WaPo Claims Elites Should Run Elections; Quietly Edits Article After Public Outrage Ensues https://www.zerohedge.com/political/wapo-claims-elites-should-run-elections… ... There’s a reason I take screenshots. ... Here's the possibilities with this year's north American election: 1) Democrats once again steal the nomination from Bernie Sanders one way or another - probably the deal Bloomberg made with party elites, in his intention to hand it over to Hilary, so she can again run against Trump; they'll probably pull out super delegates again, despite promising not to. In this scenario, the destruction of the US Democratic party is all but complete, and all bets are off - Tulsi and Bernie could literally start a new Democratic party and probably have more success than most other scenarios. 2) Somehow, the Dems decide to let the popular candidate (Bernie) actually receive the nomination, and the most hilarious media double talk the world has ever seen, begins, where (((the triple bracketted media))) are ordered to shill for Trump, since no sane oligarch supports 85% tax on hisself nor nationalisation of any of "his" assets (electricity grids, gas networks, etc). Now -that's- hysterical :D Sadly, since comedy scenario 2) is so embarrassing to the legacy media, we'll probably see scenario 1) - not that it will change the outcome in November one iota (except for the further destruction of the "Democratic" party) :D
