Dog whistle It was a really controversial, dumb and racist thing at the time but pales in comparison to what’s being said these days

He isn’t a natural born citizen which is what’s most important. I remember that Ted Cruz was born in Canada and Trump used to troll him for that during debates saying he isn’t qualified. You can be born outside the USA and technically run for president if you are born a USA citizen according to law and don’t have to go through the naturalization process. Neither of Elon’s parents were USA citizens and Elon had to naturalize to become a USA citizen.

He isn’t eligible, the constitution doesn’t allow foreign born nationals to be president.

Anyone else think Elon will one day face a major court case or even jail time?

@Flowerfaeiry I see that you are bothered by these other people’s choices for their beliefs. I would perhaps invite you that maybe these people never really did anything for you in actuality and it was only to some degree their guidance that perhaps showed you something innate in you which is always here and now? Would you be open to the idea that you don’t need to play the seeking game to find the beautify and wellbeing and answers you’re looking for? You sound very reliant on these people for your wellbeing. What if there is a spring of knowledge and value already here and now that doesn’t require looking towards other people?

California is one of the most progressive states that is why, but not by much. LA apparently cut their fire department budget by millions even after experts have been saying for years a major fire like this can sweep through LA. California has some of the most hypocritical housing and zoning rules for what's supposed to a progressive bastion. Ocean property has gone up in general across the country and world. People want to live in warm areas if they can and swim in the ocean on the weekend, the rich work remote now so they can overpopulate these areas away from cold and dangerous business metropolis centers up north. People are going to continue to reap natural paradises as long as the market demands it without any thought to serious long term conservation. Dollar speaks louder than any policy or threat that isn't immediate.

Because people don’t particularly shine their consciousness on important matters but instead put the vibes and culture wars first. A lot of people would rather argue about all the silly shit, leave troll comments on social media and own the libs rather than set their bias beliefs aside and expand their consciousness. Many of these people will need to have their homes destroyed and face these issues to shock them out of their silly games.

Wonder how this will end up being politicized…

They made all sorts of promises that these automations and shortcuts would help the consumer save yet prices go up every year corporations will just split bigger profits until there is a massive backlash

You choose to create that mental illness and it’s entirely within your power if you so choose to no longer create it, if you are willing to be conscious how you create it and choose to stop what you are doing to create it. No one wants to hear the truth because they then realize they had their finger on the button all along and can’t hand wave their responsibility away. Nothing kidnaps your consciousness. You look through a belief and create an experience which you think your consciousness is being kidnapped but if you were to do inquiry on why this kidnapping is occurring you would realize literally nothing is causing it and it’s purely your viewpoint which you’ve chosen which you are freely able to change at any time. You can never be a victim. It’s impossible.

Is that entirely true though? No doubt the people coming in on H1B are educated but what makes them capable over other educated American citizens? Last time I checked it’s not 60,000 Einstein being brought in on it yearly. It’s definitely been used before in tech to outsource labor to more servile and controllable people who will be deported if they are fired. Innovation benefits from immigration and getting the best minds here but this visa isn’t being entirely used for that. In some cases it’s used to replace educated Americans who know their rights as citizens. It definitely needs to be reviewed.

Didn’t Canada basically cause all sorts of issues for their country by allowing a very liberal version of this kind of visa?

Your consciousness cannot be kidnapped. You are not a victim. Please do not choose this illusion. Thank me later.

Thanks for that reply ChatGPT

is that Henry Kissinger in your collage?

Do not try to make her jealous by talking to her friends. Just talk to her friends normally and if she likes you she will probably get a bit jealous. If you try to flirt with her friends YOU ARE DONE.

He’s completely disconnected himself from god / spirit / the Tao / intuition (whatever you wish to call it). The world appears only dark and sad and hopeless when you fail to see through the clouds blocking the sun. His choice.

He is trying to mold the entire western world around tech driven oligarchy and his own ego agenda. He’s sort of brainwashed himself into it too by claiming he’s a revolutionary liberating people from establishment institutions that have lost their ways.

I remember the Fox News pundits back in like 2015/2016 said Trump is smart for saying stuff like this cause he keeps his adversaries guessing and you don’t know what he’s serious about so he keeps the real plans a secret….. We really have an old delusional boomer as president.

He’s trying to buy political parties in the UK and Europe.

The thing is I don't see populism as all bad. It just seems like these sort of movements are corrupted by the most obviously not populist type people and in addition the actual policy that's put into play does jack shit for any of the voters. The MAGA masses just want their red meat in the form of immigration reform and deportations, apart from that what else are they even hoping to get from Trump?

It's superfluous to me if Putin loves Russia or not. What an abstract notion. It's kind of a tangent. Of course he loves his country and of course he wants to keeps his regime in power. I would say his survival script is definitely intertwined with this conflict and what's more important to understand. It's impossible for him to pull out and the more he escalates and the more Ukraine is pressed the more they escalate.

Trump really is that ridiculous old man boomer who says this ridiculous shit and is so far removed from reality

To answer your question, I’m not sure. I am not entirely convinced that listening is a step towards peace when one side has made quite clear what their motives culminate in. Putin made several long speeches on the night of the invasion and has done a few interviews since then. His beliefs are there and don’t need repeating. At this point I’m not sure what else you’re expecting to hear from the Russians? He doesn’t want to seriously negotiate a peace deal, he has the upper hand and only incentives at this point to continue the war. That’s the whole point of what Zelenskyy is saying. Putin isn’t willing to discuss or say anything in good faith unless his back is against the wall and there are consequences for waging this war. I don’t know where Lex is getting “Putin is ready to negotiate” from???

The thing is I’ve listened to and deeply studied both sides and I can see through the sheer amount of deception and bullshit one side is playing into more than the other. It’s very hard to take the whole balancing stance and come to the conclusion that “both sides are equally at fault or equally bullshitting.” This is not merely a conflict over territory or power it’s a clash of worldviews. One side is compelled to stick to established rule while the other wants to regain power due to historical grievances. The events unfolding now are a direct result of this collision, fundamental principles guiding international order are being contested. It’s not just geopolitical struggle but a battle to define the rules that will shape the foreseeable future. I’m not entirely dismissive of Russians point of view but when you see this war basically culminates in “make Russia great again” you realize which side of history you should be on.
