  1. Yes I would survive in India and I have a positive view of Indians, really buttressed by working with Indians at my job, although it is sad the damage Modi is doing to India's reputation and the support he has among the north indians.
  2. A most interesting article that has me considering seriously the possibility of purpose to the universe: https://aeon.co/essays/why-our-universe-can-have-cosmic-purpose-without-god
  3. @Nivsch You were boasting about supporting Netanyahu but as you may be aware Netanyahu until October 7th did not want to get rid of Hamas. In fact, he told the Israel cabinet to not oppose financial transfers to Hamas. He also supported Hamas against moderate Palestinian factions. The goal was to strengthen Hamas and their power in Gaza, dividing the Palestinians along factional lines from the WB and having a nice boogeyman to trot out and point to claim "Israel doesn't have a partner for peace" all the while Israel expanded its illegal settlements in the West Bank and East Jerusalem which by international law is Palestinian land. So before you wag your sanctimonious figure at others, you might want to reflect on Israel's behavior and its contributions to the present crisis.
  4. Killing or harming prisoners is always wrong. Striking back at occupiers who have held you under a brutal 15-year blockage where even vital medicines were banned is righteous.
  5. I personally felt really good at seeing Israel finally get a taste of its own medicine.
  6. The Phenomena is more complex and weirder than aliens coming from another solar system. The parts of the government that are honest acknowledge this by now using the term 'non-human intelligence.' Leslie Kean, the journalist who brought the issue into the mainstream in 2017 through her NYT article, believes there's a connection between the phenomenon and consciousness. Reality is stranger than fiction. Keep an open mind, everything we 'know' will come undone in the coming years.
  7. I grew up in Seattle, not the suburbs but the city itself, so I have the somewhat unique perspective of growing up in a green dominated environment. Only after moving out of Seattle did I realize how much of a bubble I was living in. One example of it being green is that every city policy is evaluated according to some framework to understand how it might impact minorities.
  8. For the record, Lex did not attend MIT but Drexel. He is so status obsessed though that he conceals this and gives off the appearance of going to MIT. His own relationship to MIT is as some loosely associated lecturer.
  9. California's courts and its Supreme Court are all very liberal. The quasi affirmative action programs practiced in California - which still produce low levels of black students- had the benefit of those liberal courts as well as the fact affirmative action was legal at the federal level. Now lawsuits can bypass the state courts and go directly to the federal level.
  10. I don't see how affirmative action is not stage yellow. What's disgusting to me is not colleges and professional skills seeking out minority candidates, it's the grossly unfair advantages they give to connected kids.
  11. The Los Vegas incident is not credible, and many people think it's a fabricated event and the publicity around it is to distract and discredit from the whistleblower. The whistleblower conducted a 7 hour interview which is supposed to air tonight.
  12. https://thedebrief.org/intelligence-officials-say-u-s-has-retrieved-non-human-craft/ The guy used to prepare intelligence briefings for the president. more info:
  13. It's not a great theory, but I struggle to understand what else explains it. How can beings so advanced their craft defy the known laws of physics unintentionally crash? Maybe they are from another dimension and something about entering our dimension causes accidents.
  14. My guess is they’re crashing for the same reason they’re allowing us to pick them up through radar and other instruments. They want to expose themselves to us, their technologies and their biologies (at least assumed biology).
  15. NyMag picks up the story: https://nymag.com/intelligencer/2023/06/ex-intel-official-government-hiding-alien-tech.html
  16. Gary Nolan, a highly respected Stanford professor, often talks about the practical usefulness of knowing they are real and also with us on our planet. He mentions how the discovery of silicon transformed human civilization, serving as everything from a useful building material to the backbone of modern electronics and advanced computers and artificial intelligence softwares such as ChatGPT. if we, through reverse engineering, can even understand even a spec of the technologies used in these crafts we could potentially unleash incredible benefits for our species. This is not lost on governments. The article I linked to alleges their has been a secret Cold War between the U.S and peer advanced counties to recover and study these crafts.
  17. @Blackhawk the evidence is currently in the hands of elements of the U.S government who have concealed it from Congress and have done so for many years. right now the only evidence available to the public is this news and strong hints by many other senior officials, but the overton window on this topic is shifting quickly and we might have something more substantial available to us soon
  18. @Danioover9000 Reports of UFO sightings are not new. They’ve been going on for decades, if not centuries. What’s new is public acknowledgement of them starting in 2017 by elements of the U.S government, and now explicit acknowledgement they are non-human by a senior intelligence official. I have no idea what’s prompted this shift if they’ve been covering this up for this long.
  19. Is it worth buying this course? I bought the book recommendation list and it was just whatever. Nothing I couldn't find on Goodreads myself and seemed more like Leo's personal taste in books at the moment rather than anything life changing.
  20. See if you want to get into futures trading. I'd recommend "The Day Trader next door" on YouTube. Just type that in. There's also another guy on youtube whose name I forget who sometimes does futures. Type in something like "futures trading with 1k account" and you should find him. Younger guy out in California. Not a phony or trying to sell you some sort of discord server membership. You can start with any amount and futures trading is basically 24 hours.
  21. War is part of the great balance of the universe. Until we become Gods, and God-like in goodness, we will always need war. But war doesn't need to mean WW1 style trench warfare or nuclear bombs. We can also do social war and that works too.
  22. Biden aint shit unless he does something house. As a working millennial, I can't afford a house in places I want to live i.e. places with good jobs.
  23. When Donald Trump was elected president of the United States, reality became a joke for me. Anyone else feel the same way?
  24. Used to support now not against yet but disturbed by reports of people in Canadian hospitals being reminded repeatedly and without solicitation of their option to die by doctor if their medical care is costly.
