  1. To explain a bit more, there were some people that couldn't/wouldn't go through the motions, and they were locked up as political prisoners. I'm not saying life was all too great for them. For the rest of us that didn't feel the need to stand up against almost impossible odds (until the country did it, as a majority), life was alright. It could have been better, it could have been much worse.
  2. ??? Are you coming out of the closet? It is "terror" if you fear for your life. Otherwise, it's just the day to day life, and you didn't know otherwise. In the morning we were mumbling the praise the leader songs, making the gestures etc, then in the evening still had barbeque in our gardens with the neighbors, watching "illegal" western propaganda on VHS tapes and listening to the illegal tadio station "Free Europe", in the hope/ knowledge "this, too, shall pass". When you have little, you appreciate more.
  3. I have. Scary? Please, get the sand out of your vagina. At least they didn't impose their made up pronouns and sexual orientation on you. Yes it was corrupt, but the rules were known by everyone, so in that sense for the ordinary person it was a level playing field. You still had to work hard to make dreams come true, same as most other places. And if you had some money after working hard, you could pay the doctors that operate your dad's cancer, or have someone pit a good word to get your son employed... Was it the ideal system? Of course not, it was a stage we had to go through to fully appreciate a non corrupt democracy. But scary? That fear is made up by your self referencing thoughts. "Fear is the mind killer"
  4. In fairness, he didn't have to do much to stick his head out over the DEI mandated shortarses. I wish you are so brave 3 seconds after an attempted assassination so that you won't "milk the moment".... Jesus wept
  5. "They"???? So you have kids together??? Makes all the difference
  6. That was one of my points, you don't have to be American to vote... how people are not in jail after allowing mass murderers and terrorists into the country is beyond me. Trump will win the election, get over it.
  7. I'm not even an American, and feel sorry for the situation at the Southern border. Although I probably could vote in the elections... 🤔 Either one of these situations would make me vote for Trump, I simply don't care enough about the rest: Attitude towards crypto, especially bitcoin Biden's Open border policy Taxation... White House floated the idea some time ago of taxing unrealized profits!!!! This is outrageous. Biden obviously has dementia, so who's behind the teleprompter?
  8. Your so-called 'analogy' is too blatant to be useful. There's no Devil as an entity/being, except in the minds of religious fanatics. People's actions determines their devilry or sainthood and everything in between. If your "Devil" only did good deeds, helped the poor, ended world hunger, and never performed any bad actions, in what way is that "the Devil", other than in the label you gave it? May as well call it "the Pizza", for the relevance it has.
  9. You don't have to trade daily, just buy index funds instead of keeping money in the bank where inflation will diminish it away to nothing. Or what do you recommend to do with the money, buy property, gold, or...?
  10. Close your eyes... And see how your teeth dissapear from your mouth when the dissapeared universe smacks your mouth.
  11. Not very successful, if you've done it hundreds of times. Who liked it very much? The mind, when it reassembled itself? Cool.
  12. He has dementia, can't function as a president. Gives the impression he can, while reading from a teleprompter. However, people did not vote the teleprompter writer in office
  13. 4.11 what, $ or %? If APY is 4.25%, you get about 0.35% monthly.
  14. Eh no, anually.... You may get monthly interest paid to your bank account, but 4.35% is APY
  15. Not "your" consciousness, just consciousness, assigning ownership is an extra mental level that keeps you in the dark. I don't lose consciousness, more like consciousness loses the idea of a body and all mental stories associated with it.
  16. Stop lying to yourself, "we" don't all "know"(you mean "believe") that. It's mostly you stuck mentally masturbating.
  17. In base 2, 1 + 1 = 10, not 11 😁
