To the people who believe there should be reparations for slavery, I have a sincere request. Please give me your best argument for how it is either just or moral to force people to pay for something that was done 150 years or more before they were born. I have tried to understand the logic behind this, but I just can’t.

I cannot wrap my head around this mindset. Of course he worked for it. Of course he earned it. And what does “need” have to do with it??? What this all looks like to me is people so jealous of someone else’s success that they can’t stand seeing it. Why should I care what Elon Musk is making?? It has literally no effect on me or anyone else who is not Elon Musk.
A trillion dollars is so obscene our minds can’t even grasp it. Even if you spent $1 million/day, it would take you almost 3,000 years to burn through $1 trillion. No one “earns” that. No one “works” for that. And no one, and I mean no one, needs that.

What Rogan's not taking into account is that the only way to pay people $500k per year is to engage in even more money printing than we already are. And that's going to just keep making the issue worse and worse.
He’s so fucking stupid it’s insane lmao

if 50 year mortgages is the best we can do with an administration filled with /our guys/ then this shit is 100% a wrap
Listen, I'm calling it now. If they put a 50 year mortgage in play then within a year they'll be selling 0-down subprime mortgages with an attractive 5-7% teaser rate and a variable APR that kicks in if one, maybe two payments are missed. Imagine the mega-tsunami of foreclosures that will result once that APR kicks in and your 50 year mortgage goes up to 27-35% interest compounding monthly. No one can take that. Once they get that going they'll start bundling these things into some new security... Long-term mortgage equity securities or some such. And it will be '08 all over again in the housing, banking, insurance, etc. markets. When the crash hits, the same banks that traded the securities will buy up the bad debt, and thus the properties attached to it, from each other. They'll call it clearing the bad weight or something. But, in fact, it will be probably the final instance of wealth and property transfer from the many to the few. And the system will go into free fall implosion.

Going through 1st and 2nd Peter with my Sunday School class. Tomorrow we close out Chapter 2 of 1st Peter, all about submitting to authorities. This one's gonna be tough to teach given the state of the world in general.

This looks like my 12 year old when I tell her to pick up her socks off the living room floor for the 73rd time.

Your every thought, memory, and movement begins here: an electric spark turned chemical message, as one neuron whispers to the next. What you’re seeing This animation captures neurotransmission, the process that allows nerve cells to communicate across microscopic gaps called synapses. When an electrical impulse reaches the end of Cell A (the presynaptic neuron), it triggers the release of neurotransmitters—tiny signaling molecules that cross the synaptic cleft and bind to receptors on Cell B (the postsynaptic neuron). 🟡 Opens ion channels that generate a new electrical signal in the next neuron 🟡 Coordinates how the brain encodes movement, emotion, and thought 🟡 Operates on millisecond precision using hundreds of molecular components 💡 The bigger picture Neurotransmission is the foundation of consciousness, a seamless conversation of electricity and chemistry happening trillions of times each second. Every sensation, decision, and memory depends on this invisible dialogue between your brain’s 86 billion neurons.

Yes, they should. And it's not "stupid infighting" to say so.
Replying to @TrumpWarRoom
After Charlottesville, President Trump said, "I'm not talking about the neo-Nazis and white nationalists, because they should be condemned totally."
Newsflash: If you think a few good tunes are worth sacrificing a human life then you're a shitty person. Period.
This is a must watch! Stevie Nicks speaks openly about the abortion that allowed her to continue her career at the height of Fleetwood Mac’s rise. She makes it plain: access to abortion made her life, her art, and her voice possible.

Here's the thing, I guarantee you that this is NOT just isolated to buses. They have been building back door access into EVERYTHING. 1000% guaranteed. This should be extremely distressing given how much of the hardware running our critical infrastructure was manufactured in China.
TROJAN HORSE “Denmark is taking urgent action with its 262 Chinese buses after Norwegian city made startling discovery while testing them” These Chinese buses could be accessed remotely from the manufacturer’s HQ in China. Effectively, Yutong could shut the entire fleet down in seconds through the remote chip. Norway’s transport authorities quickly took action by removing the SIM cards, which would prevent any hostile takeovers but unfortunately this also blocks any future updates. This Trojan Horse may occur with ALL Chinese EVs.

England was 99.9% white in 1950. Not 90%… 99.9%. A fully homogeneous society. It existed that way for 1,000 years.

Have you ever heard of the “Universe 25”Experiment? It’s a chilling similarity of today’s Western Society. In 1958 Dr. John Calhoun built a perfect utopia for mice with unlimited food, entertainment, shelter and no predators. The mice had everything they needed to thrive but around Day 317, something went horribly wrong. The social structure began to break down. Dominant males became aggressive and attacked others randomly and some females became violent against their young. Meanwhile a group of males withdrew completely. They stopped fighting, mating and interacting. Calhoun called them “the beautiful ones”. As these passive males increased, birth rates collapsed, infant mortality rose to 100%, sexual behavior broke down, pathological violence and cannibalism appeared until every mouse died. Calhoun repeated the process 25 times and each time the ending was the same. The conclusion was disturbing: When a population no longer needs to struggle for survival and no meaningful roles exist… social and behavioral collapse becomes inevitable. Universe 25 wasn’t about mice. It was a warning.
