Ok so just for fun. So what do you say about his arguments here? Also i ask myself this. Would bibi rather go to jail or cause death and destruction? I think he’d rather nuke iran than to seriously go to jail. -

I heard his arguments before. He’s repeating them over and over and over and over. And he holds up these little cards like a presentation. It’s embarrassing. Obviously I would have walked out too. Nobody can bear listening to this crap. -

Bruh i can’t listen to a full speech of this ethnic cleansing demonic dweeb. I tried but failed. -

I’m just defending/arguing against genocide or ethnic cleansing. Killing innocents. Grabbing more and more land (settlers) wars, killing, bloodshed. Bibi is a total psychopath imo and has an arrest warrant by the icc. The UN called it genocide. I don’t even like Islam. -

The scary thing now is that tech is involved. Like in China which isn’t ultra violent. But they also use Chinese face recognition tech in Iran to see if women wear the veil and stuff. So if real fascism + tech. (Vance/Thiel/Palantir) or whatever will be very hard to get rid off seemingly. -
Yea i agree. Tobias is also quite good imo, just started recently. Very flowery language and a buddy of Alexis

What’s really squirly with the so called human thing is that it’s never enough. Up up to the moon kind of thing. Billionaires always want more. And thus we’re almost never happy enough. And always look for the next better thing. Anywho good thread i like it. 👍 And did you see Rose came back.

Don’t take it too seriously Gosh i used to love these conspiracy theories when I used to smoke weed. -
I guess in the story humans are just a bit more complex. So that’s why many people can seemingly easily go crazy and lost in thought. Like for example the instinct to pro create. Which is an instinct of all animals. In humans it can get so elaborate and complicated. So the instinct is obviously very natural and nothing special. But then the stories that are seemingly fabricated around it in humans are just far out and can cause a lot of suffering and so on.

Some animals take psychedelic plants. Maybe they chase different states too? gpt Great question! A surprising number of animals are known (or suspected) to deliberately seek out psychoactive or intoxicating substances in the wild. It’s sometimes called zoopharmacognosy (when animals self-medicate) or recreational intoxication (when it seems more for pleasure than health). Here are some examples: 🐒 Primates Chimpanzees, gorillas, and baboons: Sometimes eat fermented fruits and get intoxicated. Vervet monkeys: In the Caribbean, they’re notorious for stealing alcoholic cocktails from tourists. 🦌 Hooved Animals Reindeer: Famously eat Amanita muscaria (fly agaric mushrooms), which are hallucinogenic. Some researchers suggest this inspired aspects of the Santa Claus myth. Elk and moose: Have been observed eating fermented apples or berries and acting drunk. 🐘 Elephants Often reported to eat fermented fruit (like marula) and get intoxicated, though scientists debate how much alcohol they can actually consume this way. 🐬 Dolphins Young bottlenose dolphins have been filmed gently chewing on pufferfish, which release a small dose of tetrodotoxin — highly toxic in large amounts, but in small doses it may induce a trance-like state. The dolphins appear to pass the fish around like a “joint.” 🐦 Birds Cedar waxwings, starlings, robins, etc.: Eat overripe or fermented berries and get visibly drunk, sometimes to the point of flying into windows. Jays and crows: Occasionally eat fermented fruit for the same effect. 🦎 Reptiles & Others Some wallabies in Tasmania have been seen eating poppy plants (meant for medical morphine production) and hopping around in circles, apparently intoxicated. Cats: Domestic and wild cats react strongly to catnip (nepetalactone), which acts on opioid receptors in their brains. ✅ Takeaway: Many animals — from insects to dolphins — seek out natural substances that alter their state of mind. Sometimes this is accidental (fermented fruit), sometimes medicinal (self-medicating with plants), and sometimes it looks very much like recreational “drug use.” Do you want me to make you a list of the most psychedelic plants and fungi animals are known to eat, with the species that use them?

GPT: Yes — dolphins can experience something very much like depression. While it’s hard to measure their inner emotional states the same way we do in humans, there’s strong scientific and observational evidence that dolphins are capable of complex emotions, including sadness, grief, and even depressive-like behavior. Why Scientists Think Dolphins Can Get Depressed Complex Brains Dolphins have large, highly developed brains with structures linked to emotion and social bonding (like the limbic system). Their intelligence and self-awareness (they recognize themselves in mirrors) make them more vulnerable to psychological stress. Behavior in Captivity Dolphins in aquariums or marine parks sometimes show signs similar to depression: Lethargy (floating listlessly, lack of play) Loss of appetite Self-harm behaviors (e.g., ramming walls) Some researchers suggest that confined, unstimulating environments lead to stress and mental decline. Grief & Mourning Wild dolphins have been observed carrying and guarding the bodies of dead calves for days — interpreted as mourning. Social animals that form deep bonds are more prone to psychological suffering when those bonds break. Voluntary Breathing & Suicide Debate Dolphins must consciously breathe (unlike humans, where it’s automatic). Some trainers and scientists have reported dolphins refusing to surface, effectively suffocating themselves — described as a possible form of suicide linked to depression or trauma. This idea is debated, but it highlights how unusual their biology is compared to ours. ✅ Conclusion: While we can’t diagnose dolphins with human depression, there’s good evidence that they do experience depressive-like states, especially in captivity or after trauma. In the wild, their social lives and mental stimulation seem to protect them better.

Dolphins in captivity can get depressed i think.

They like it that most people walked out? I only listened to like 4 mins of it because he repeats the same stuff over and over "they killed babies" "animals" "we have to level gaza even more" and so on. Does the speech get any better? -

Sorry can’t edit the other post ^ @Ajay0 what do you think about this theory and evidence? Nice? We sre the same indo-europeans? Let’s be friends? Or nah? -
GPT You’re talking about the Indo-European migration theory — where scholars try to explain how languages like Sanskrit, Greek, Latin, and others are all related. Here’s a breakdown: 1. The Core Idea Languages of India (like Sanskrit), Iran (like Persian), and much of Europe (like Greek, Latin, Germanic, Celtic, Slavic) belong to the same Indo-European language family. This suggests that, thousands of years ago, there was a common ancestral people who spoke Proto-Indo-European (PIE). From their original homeland, they migrated and spread, bringing their languages (and some cultural elements) across Europe and Asia. 2. Competing Theories of the Homeland There’s debate about where the Proto-Indo-Europeans originally lived: Steppe (Kurgan) Theory (most widely accepted): Homeland = Pontic–Caspian steppe (modern Ukraine/Russia/Kazakhstan). Time = around 4500–2500 BCE. Spread by horseback riding, wagons, and pastoral nomadism. Supported by archaeology, linguistics, and now DNA evidence. Anatolian Theory (Colin Renfrew, 1980s): Homeland = Anatolia (modern Turkey). Time = earlier, around 7000–6000 BCE. Spread with farming (Neolithic agricultural expansion). Less supported now, but still discussed. Other minor theories: Balkans, Armenia, even India (the Out of India theory, held by some but not mainstream in academic circles). 3. How It Connects to India Around 1500 BCE, groups speaking early Indo-Aryan languages likely moved into the Indian subcontinent. This is connected to the arrival of Vedic culture (Rigveda, early Sanskrit). Indigenous traditions + Indo-Aryan traditions merged, forming the foundations of later Hindu civilization. In India, this is sometimes framed as the Aryan migration theory (not “invasion” as older colonial scholars put it). 4. Key Evidence Linguistic: Similar roots in words (e.g., Sanskrit pitṛ, Latin pater, English father). Archaeological: Steppe burial mounds (kurgans), chariots, horse domestication. Genetic: Ancient DNA shows movement from the Eurasian steppe into Europe and South Asia during the Bronze Age. ✅ So the theory says: Indo-Europeans originated in a single homeland (likely the Eurasian steppe), then spread westward into Europe and eastward into India and Iran, carrying their languages with them. Would you like me to make a timeline + map of Indo-European migration so you can see when and where they spread? Great question — you’re asking if the theory of Indo-European migration is true. Here’s the balanced answer: ✅ What’s well supported Languages: The relationship between Sanskrit, Greek, Latin, Germanic, Slavic, Persian, etc. is 100% real and undisputed. They all come from a common ancestor (Proto-Indo-European). Archaeology & technology: Chariots, horses, and burial practices connect steppe cultures with both Europe and South Asia. Genetics: Ancient DNA studies (since ~2015) show a clear migration from the Pontic–Caspian steppe (modern Ukraine/Russia) into both Europe and northern India around 2000–1500 BCE. ❓ What’s debated Exact homeland: Most evidence points to the steppe (Kurgan theory), but some scholars still explore alternatives (Anatolia, Armenia, “Out of India” hypothesis). Nature of arrival in India: Was it a peaceful migration, gradual mixing, or something more disruptive? Scholars debate how much was cultural blending vs. replacement. Impact on society: How much Indo-European migration shaped the Vedic culture vs. how much came from indigenous Indian traditions is still an open question. 🚩 Why it’s controversial In Europe, it’s mostly an academic discussion. In India, the theory is politically sensitive: Some see it as diminishing India’s indigenous heritage. Others see it as important evidence of cultural blending. 🔑 Bottom line: Yes, the migration theory is strongly supported by linguistics, archaeology, and genetics. The details (how, when, and with what cultural impact) are still debated. How the Nazis used the theory Yes — but with a big twist. The Nazis took early scholarly ideas about Indo-Europeans and twisted them into racist ideology. 1. The Academic Idea (before the Nazis) 19th-century linguists discovered that Sanskrit, Greek, Latin, Germanic, Celtic, and Slavic languages all came from a common Proto-Indo-European ancestor. Scholars called the ancient speakers of this language “Indo-Europeans” or sometimes “Aryans” (from Sanskrit ā́rya, meaning noble). Originally, “Aryan” was a linguistic term, not a racial one. 2. The Nazi Distortion Nazis seized on the word “Aryan” and claimed it referred to a superior race (especially Northern Europeans, like Germans and Scandinavians). They argued that “Aryans” originated in the north and spread civilization, while other peoples were “inferior.” This was pseudo-science: they confused language groups with biological races. 3. Why It Mattered This false racial theory became the basis for Nazi propaganda, justifying their ideas of racial purity, antisemitism, and expansion (seeking Lebensraum, or living space, in Eastern Europe). In reality, Indo-Europeans were a prehistoric linguistic community, not a “master race.” 4. Aftermath Because of the Nazi misuse, the word “Aryan” is now avoided in serious scholarship. Modern researchers speak instead of Proto-Indo-Europeans or the Indo-European language family. 🔑 So yes: Nazis used the Indo-European/Aryan theory, but they distorted it completely to fit racist ideology. The real theory is about languages and migration, not racial superiority.

Have you been to Europe? I’ve been to India. Kerala for example. The nicest buildings there. The tourist area. The ones where tourists most go were built built by Europeans. Fort Kochin etc. Portuguese, Brits etc. Sad no?

You’re back. Already wondered what happened to you. -
India was founded in 1947. My European country was founded in the 12th century. We could argue that European countries are a continuation of Roman or Greek Empire and Celtic tribes etc. so it’s ancient. You’re just a boring Hindu nationalist. Lame. Denmark, Finland, Switzerland, Austria, Portugal, Norway and more all those countries are much better in terms of human rights, democracy, lifestyle, clean water, innovation etc etc. than India. Get a grip.
