    Still, some cultures more than others are severely missing in the "chill factor".

    Life in South America is poor, hard, and unequal yet the people have a certain attitude and chill in life. Sure I might get robbed there by some bad actors in a big city but that's about it. Despite often being religious Latino culture scores very high with the chill factor. In South America they just had one major war in the 19th century and that's it. 

    The problem is definitely deeper than just stage blue Islam.

    I hate when foreigners presume things about my country. How do you know if my country has ambition or not? probably you have never been here you don't know shit about what you are talking about.

     

    I hate when even Leo builds his geopolitical theories based on some stereotypes he has about some country or people.

    But you described now only the deep right wing which is a minority.

    Even the average of the "Likud" (Bibi's party) don't have such a rigid ideology about a land from what I was impressed, apart from a minority of them + two small far right wing parties which indeed have.

    You have a hidden agenda or you are just dumb or too innocent. Just stop for a second and look for what Israel is ACTUALLY doing, just for a second would be enough.

    Black people have been treated like animals for 300 years. So that's why survival is rougher for them in general. The poverty is tied to a history of sub-human treatment.

    Of course different countries have their different sub-classes: those who have been exploited to do cheap or free labor. Palestinians have been treated as animals for that last 100 years. When you treat people like animals they act like animals.

    Definetly true.

    There is a whole field of science of various systems of government and how they function.

    We are not using definitions from the US government or CIA, we are using definitions from political science. Putin has not invented some unique form of government. It's a very typical extractive kleptocracy.

    There are objective, neutral measures of every country's level of development:

    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_Human_Development_Index

    https://www.heritage.org/index/ranking

    Putin acts as if political science doesn't exist. Political science is not merely a Western invention. As if political science does not apply to Russians. This Duginesque Russian exceptionalism is a joke.

    The Heritage Foundation's ranking is not a good source, even right wing people are skeptical about it. You should be more careful about your sources.

    How do I know if other people's consciousness/experience happens simultaneously with mine?

    If only my consciousness/experience exists right now, how can I be certain that I will be "dreaming" other people's consciousness/experiences (incarnation of other beings) in the future? Or has it already occurred, considering the absence of a concrete existence for time (time is just a concept).

    Please, people, answer these questions carefully. It's very important to me.

    It's a very dire situation at this point. Yes, they are badly cornered and there is no good solution, but the worst possible option is for them to turn to more violence.

    In the end, if a people cannot embrace peace and they are very weak, they go extinct. That's how this works. Violence is a tool for the powerful, not for the weak.

    The only hope now is for the international community to help Palestinians elect nonviolent leadership.

    But what about integrity? isn’t it a lack of integrity even when you are weak? Remember the example you gave in a video about integrity citing Braveheart?

    Some of the points being made here should give you a clue to how multi-fasceted this issue is. There are a lot of near-unsolvable issues that all contribute to the current state this region is in.

    I love Peter Zehain's analysis! But one thing that bugs me is that he said Argentina would become a powerhouse a few years ago lol Argentina is a completely broken country nowadays with 130% inflation.

    There will always be a significant security threat to Israel from the Palestinians unless they make peace.

    Israel wants land more than they want peace. So there is no peace. But then they shouldn't complain about lack of peace.

    Yes, exactly. Israel is extremely imperialistic, all they really want is to expand, they really don't care about peace or the thousands of Palestinian children dead.

    I'm happy the president of my country realizes this.

    Russians trapped mink for centuries to trade their fur. Moscow was built on fur trading.

    Yes, but nowadays there are many types of high-quality synthetic fur. There is no need to treat these animals so cruelly. Just imagine being born and living your entire life inside a cage so small that you can´t even move properly, so, in the end, you will be killed to be the clothes of some petty disgusting rich madam.

    Just imagine the little mink babies being taken away from their moms to have this destiny.

    NO LIVING CREATURE DESERVES THIS !!!

    I don't know how this is legally allowed and common in such developed countries like Denmark. Their government has to prohibit this kind of stuff.

    If these were very poor countries, I would understand why. These rich countries allow this kind of stuff is just SHAMEFUL.
