The point is to use logical reasoning and to promote complex analysis of complex systems, which is clearly not being presented at all nor do people really care if someone does or not. How are you actually supposed to gage your worth in solving the problem, what if I am solving the problem by calling out blatant moral pandering. There's primary and secondary solutions here, telling people how to think is a primary solution while actually solving the given problems using a certain mode of thinking is a secondary solution, which one has inherently more value than the other?

If he loses reelection he is considered a one term president, something no president once to be remembered as.

      Im in an annoying pocket of MAGAs all over. So while its very long overdue this was pretty impressive. Although the glimmer was squashed when most of the comments after that post were not in support, it was instead how offensive white people felt that was to say when "not every republican is racist and that if you say that you are the racist"
      So yeah this area I am in is not only racist but poorly educated. God i hope i find a good place to move soon. LOL BiG HUGS to EVERYONE THE FIGHT IS NOT OVER!

      That’s interesting. Most activists from the ‘60s never really appeared to have much of a mind for change other than vague notions of peace and equality. It was that emptiness that lead to no real change in the ensuing decades. Let’s be real: boomers and whatever ideas they have about themselves as supporting progressivism stop short when it comes to making any sort of real effort, they are one of the laziest and most self-serving generations along the timeline of advancing quality of life for poor and oppressed people. Thank you for your benevolent recognition for a young person picking up your slack.

What this really indicates is Ethiopian had white kids and they wrote a book called the Bible about it. These are the most ancient DNA that has had more time on Earth to Advance. This doesn't exclude the Superiority of North African Melanated in Chromagnon phenotype. Or when we decipher these words in Hebrew, we see the EYE in scripture with Chroma color vision, of sons of Magog(The Hebrew Translation never lies-Chromagnon). A Hebrew capability over the Deuteronamous Neanderthal. A correction in the eye of the blue cone receptor, allowing for humans to see UV refracted light in rayliegh scattering. We call it Colorblind now a days. The Actual Blue eye is simply a variant within the same gene, called the OCA2. You dont have to be White to pass the gene along, because not only is it currently concentrated in Ethiopia and Israel, its had 10,000 years to reach the world. This Technically makes Blues and North African closest Brothers, where some South African region are distant cousin to North Africans. BROTHERS, not fake words like Caucasian, but REAL Science.

      @@dianamorales7335 That's because Trump is, tragically, as simple a guy as we see him as. He genuinely believes the crap he says, while simulateneously doing whatever he can if he thinks is good for himself. He's a narcissist in a real, _clinical_ sense. He's literally unable to associate himself with anything he views or believes is negative and doing so causes him pain. That's why he cheats when he doesn't need to and fought so hard to reverse an election he bloody well knew he lost. He keeps making things worse for himself because he can't help it. If he was capable of even the simplest political calculation he would have conceded and prepared for 2024. But had he been capable of that, maybe he would have gotten reelected. But that man wouldn't be Donald Trump.
      He should have stayed in showbiz. The only reason he wanted the presidency was because he got jealous of Obama and he, like a child, thought being president would get him the same acclaim. He did all those horrible policies because the malignant people who allowed him to rise to power wanted him to and convinced him this was a way to look "strong" and be "loved".

We've even listed to the lyrics of some rappers such as Kanye West during our service time in order discuss the truths in them. We know that millennials have ways of expressing themselves that is very different than that of older traditional Christians. They have every right to and as a matter of fact, they are more open and honest. I enjoyed the young man's rap and totally agree with his message. I in no way think he's a lunatic. He's really very intelligent and talented. He is living in his purpose and I applaud that. I ask that just as Conservative Christians should give others a chance and not be so quick to judge, I ask that you please do the same about Christians. Not all of us are closed to different forms of expression and think we're the only ones right. Have a prosperous life and be blessed.

      @ron gray it's obvious you aim to come off as an empty minded troll. Narrow mind's are incapable of appreciating an articulate artist with a relevant message. For the sake of your self & those around you - WISE UP🙌

    I grew up with white friends who always were races behind my back. I was the only non white in the group and I always just ignored it. In my town I live in there are a lot of white Americans that are very races but act like they love all races. It saddens me to admit this but it’s true. I always wanted to fit in but at the end of the day I know what their true colors are...

      How were they racist behind your back? And every race that isnt white are racist to our faces and behind our backs. So racism is within every race but there are no oppressed races.

      That’s actually easy.The GOP is actual scum.They fear monger the rise of the “left” and “socialism” (in one of the most conservative/capitalist/right leaning country’s in the world).America is one of the only countries where Nancy Pelosi can be called a “socialist” and crowds would agree,and people like Ted Cruz are willing to manipulate that part of crowd to keep his power.
