    Nothing has made America fall more than the conservative movement of the last 40 years.

    It's not the homeless you should be worried about, but leaders like Gingrich, Bush, Cheney, Trump, Matt Gaetz, Margery Taylor Green, Lauren Boebert, etc.

    I wouldn't say democrats specifically, but an uber stage green society is not the way, as seen by whats happening in our big cities. 


  2. I’m not a conservative, and 9/10 I would disagree with this Victor Davis Hansen, but with the extreme progressive and stage green policies in many of our cities, Victor makes a good point about how American society is on the down fall. Now obviously he is biased, always in favor of the conservative point of view, but I think as people who want to live in a safe society, the breakdown of order and of basic rule of law affects all of us. If you support these hyper liberal policies in some of our cities, ask yourself this: are you really okay with walking over homeless people with your children? Are you okay with being a possible victim of robbery? And not getting justice? We need to stop worrying about this culture war shit, and see that things are going bad right under our noses!

    Even in 2023, we have this issue of moral stage blue warriors trying get in everyone’s business about what we do. Honestly since most people in the ESRB board are above the age of 40, they should just leave or retire. It just shows how disconnected moral justice warriors are from society. Some people in stage blue can be just so annoying, adding to the ills and downturn of our society.

    You are just making shit up.

    These aliens are limited creatures, not magical elves.

    Uh well I wouldn’t say limited in the human sense….I mean the fact that they can travel light years like it’s anything with just a tiny spaceship, that shows just how ahead they are in technology, and honestly according to the Fermi paradox if there is an alien civilization far more advanced than ours, then the chances of the human species surviving and getting to that level is pretty low.

    ^^^ my own personal sighting. Didnt know what it was, but it may not have actually been aliens

    Do you guys think the public is ready for aliens to reveal themselves? The government is definitely aware of their existence and in possession of some of their technology, but I feel like humanity is just too smallminded and petty to be prepared to deal with a hyper intelligent alien species. Leo, do you think your current purpose is to bring more understanding to alien consciousness so that we will eventually be prepared to collaborate with them? Also could alien technology literally solve all of our energy problems? If thats the case, then I think the aliens must have good reason to not reveal themselves and are just waiting for the right time. What do u guys think?

    Yea that last vid is definitely not a UFO. The fact that it leaves a combustion trail is definitely proof that is it man made is that runs on some combustible fuel source, again not alien or advanced at all.

    I have been asked to start a UFO mega-thread given all the UFO news that has been coming out lately. So here we go. Post any UFO related news stories here.

    Please don't spoil this thread with a bunch of debunking debates. We're mostly just interested in legit news stories here. If you don't believe in UFOs then this thread is probably not for you.

    For purposes of all our discussions, UFO means, objects of non-human origins with higher than human intelligence. Not Chinese weather balloons or visual illusions.

    Not that I am completely trying to debunk anyone’s UFO fantasy, but how come these UFOs only seem to be interested in the US, and not anywhere else in the world. How come all these reports of UFOs are coming out of the US, but no other part of the world? This thought is really the reason that I’m skeptical.



  7. Nothing much to say here, but this is straight tragic. This train derailment involved three separate trains (two crowded express passenger trains and one freight train) on a major rail line between Delhi, Chennai and Bangalore. This is a big deal as this rail line is one of the busiest in the nation, making it even more tragic. Something like this is equivalent to a derailment happening between two major cities in the US (NYC to Philly) or Europe (London to Paris). The only silver lining pjt of this is that hopefully there will be a new push for a complete transformation of infrastructure in the India.

    You don't have to be white to be right-wing. This is a bad understanding of what nationalism, racism, and far right is.

    There are far-right wingers in every country, every ethnicity, race, gender, and religion.

    Yeah I know but generally in America, the far right are against people with brown or black skin, they spend huge portion of their time shitting on them. It just baffles me that minorities take on these ideas that are used against them. I guess since I’m at stage orange/green, it’s harder for me to understand the appeal of the far right.


  9. Good quality coke is like snorting air, but the reality is far from that. Unless you are super rich and can afford it, most college kids or young 20 something’s get bad quality, super cut up coke. And some of the things they use to cut the coke, well…..can kill you. Unless I’m some sort of millionaire where I can afford the best quality coke from the best source, I’m never using it. In an alternate universe, I wouldn’t mind selling it tho, as it’s a major money making gig (if you don’t get caught ?). 


  10. I think overall, the invasion and imperialistic endeavors of Putin is backwards and horrible, but from a non-biased sense, the sentiment makes sense from a geopolitical and cultural perspective.

    From a geopolitical perspective, Putin has access to warmer ports by the Sea of Azov in crimea, allowing for better trade options. But most importantly from a cultural perspective, it’s about a reunification of cultures.

    Prior to the dissolution of the Soviet Union, there was never a separate Ukraine or a separate Russia, and there was never a distinction between Ukrainian and Russian people.

    They were always the same people and the same culture with small difference in language. It’s one thing if Russia wants to acquire a sovereign nation like Azerbaijan, whom are nothing like the Russians genetically or culturally. But with the sentiment of acquiring Russia, it’s more a kin to reintegrating a lost central piece of their culture, their nation, and their former great empire.

    When the Vikings started Kievan Rus, the capital and heart of the culture of the empire was Kiev. Kiev was the first major and central Russian city. And the key population at the time were known as the Rus people. This is the root term for “Russian” today. So the original Russians, the Rus people, consisted of Russians and Ukrainians. The Ukrainians are as much Russian as the Russians are them selves. 

    Now obviously in a modern context that gives no justification of for aggressive offensive move into Ukraine. That gives no justification to kill and rape innocent Ukrainians. However I do think the constant demonization of Russia was a part of the problem. When you constantly demonize a bear, it’s more than likely going to be provoked and attack. However if you respect a bears space, it’s “terms” things are much likely to go smoother. All the west has to do is respect Russia’s terms and conditions, and give Russia the full confidence. This will make the Russia-west relations all that better. 

    In an ideal world, Russia should not aggressively go into Ukraine, but rather make a deal. This also means Zelenskyy has to be more adjusting. Allow russia to acquire some territories in the parts of Ukraine they desire, but also allow Ukraine to be its own nation and a nato ally and member.

    I also don’t know how possible this would be, but creating a Slavic Union of nations, such Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, etc. would be a healthy way for all these countries of maintaining a stable relationship not only with the us and west, but Russia as well. In turn, Russia should give up some of its Asian territories such as Chechnya, Dagestan and the like of which as those territories were acquired through colonial conquest and never an important role to the Russian identity. Russia also needs to pay reparations to these hypothetical new nations for the genocide and brutality they faced from the Russians (read about the circassian genocide):

    I know this was pretty long, but I feel like all the points above are, in my view, a way to stabilize everything going on in Eastern Europe and Russia. I see the best way out as a win win situation.

    How is it geopolitics when ICC is a independent, intergovernmental, international organization?

    It's not politics.

    I’m just saying not to rattle the wrong cage. I guess in simple terms, I don’t think we want to make Russia, or Putin for that matter, the enemy in a swipe…remember that Russia is in the west’s backyard. Rattling that cage can be dangerous to Europe and the west. 


  12. As a result of a project for a client, I’m gonna have to move to Birmingham Alabama for some time. I am from New Jersey, a brown guy, and I know the history of Alabama and how it’s the old south, so that does make me somewhat uncomfortable. The only reason I’m moving there is because the opportunity for this client is really good, which is innovations and solutions for a major bank, and this will take my career to another level. However I am worried, as I am stage green/orange, if I will be able to survive in an environment like Alabama, which is more stage red/blue. For those of you living in the southern United States and may have experience with this region, is there anything I should know and be prepared for before moving down there?
