Yeah:

I remember the polls were reporting that after the 1st few poll-stations reported, then suddenly ALL the poll-stations were reporting that 2/3rds of the votes were for the guy who won, & there was no variation anymore.

You can’t get more fake than that.

Never count your chickens, before they hatch.

Context ( global ) can change everything, in all kinds of ways.

I hope Harris wins, hugely, but … “The Jezebel”'s cult

( see https://www.benjaminlcorey.com/could-american-evangelicals-spot-the-antichrist-heres-the-biblical-predictions/ for evidence that the label I used is Christian-bible based, ie accurate, according to their Book of Revelations )

has promised civil war if they don’t win.

I’ve been telling people for years that US Civil War Part2, as I now call it, is going to happen with Trump…

( the actual reason is that human unconscious-mind is rather like a 70 billion pound toddler, & it wants to beat God, to break God, to MAKE GOD OBEY, and the Tantrum/Pogrom that will break the world nearly to death, because the collective-unconscious’s toddler wasn’t catered-to enough … is going to take up the rest of this century.

I expect the global everybody-going-at-everybody to begin in 2035 or 2036 or so.

There’s a stage between now & then where the US Civil War butchers NATO, & the anti-NATO empires grab all of the world that they can.

India, betting that Russia’s going to protect it from China, when Russia’s essentially a vassal-state of China, now, … India is hosed for that fight.

Anyways, it’s just The Great Filter: no religion, Abrahamic or otherwise, is the origin of it, it’s just that when someone, including a world-species, reaches nuclear-capability without earning unconscious-mind-growing-up, then … that unconscious-toddler’s going to go RAMPAGING when global population-saturation-frustration becomes inescapable AND when food-insecurity becomes global/continual, AND when political tantrum/pogrom becomes a means of “getting even” with not being catered-to, AND when religious supremacism is doing the same thing, AND when ClimatePunctuation, which WE caused, is accelerating much faster, between Temperate-Planet & Hot-Planet, through the next decades.

The kinds of predictions in that biblical stuff could have been dropped into any planet going into its Great Filter, the simultaneous terrestrial & marine food-chain-collapse ( Rev ), etc, the quakes ( rising sea-levels does that, as it alters the plate-techtonics pattern-of-stresses ), etc…

But given humankind’s unconscious-toddler is the real ruler of our world, & it “needs” to “prove that god must obey” its ignorance’s authority…

same as any narcissistic 2yo’s tantrum,

humankind’s unconscious is going to MAKE the world break, to prove that the tantrum is the ruler, the “god”…

Only problem is, that Universe isn’t going to cater to our racial-toddler…

So, either we force our own race’s unconscious into growing up …

… XOR …

we earn extinguishment.

Universe is honest, at least.

Will the “myth” making of our unconscious, in its enacting of the biblical armageddon, succeed in breaking all life, to “prove” its “greatness”?

Ask the toddlers who killed people with guns, in the US, if they “won”…

https://publications.aap.org/pediatrics/article/152/3/e2023061296/193711/Trends-and-Disparities-in-Firearm-Deaths-Among?autologincheck=redirected

nearly doubled in a few years, eh?

Isn’t that interesting…

The anbility to prevent the getting-out of evidence of what the authorities do to the locals…

Just like the unconstitutional state-laws which criminalize capturing-of-video-evidene of police executing people…

“I wonder” if this would ever be abused by anti-accountability authorities…

( remember that the whole Christian religion is founded on a guy who was a kind of whistleblower, & had spikes hammered through his wrists, in his crucifixion, for his calling the legalists “hypocrites”…

I wonder how “Christian” he’d find them to be, if he returned, & saw what they’re doing? )

Human nature & demon nature seem … related?

or is that too harsh?

… perhaps … but wasn’t the Inquisition demon-law in the name of benJoseph?

hmm…

IF you are in accounting, especially if you are in regulatory compliance accounting, or going into it, you NEED to know about a book named “Financial Shenanigans”.

I’m not intellectually-equal to it ( or to accounting, for that matter: psychology’s much easier to crack, for me ), but it is THE most important book for forensic-accountants to know.

The bullshit that they’ve been pulling, where “Between 2017 and 2021, Amazon had more than $25 billion in losses from its devices business, according to the documents. The losses for the years before and after that period couldn’t be determined.” didn’t produce criminal consequences…

You’ve got to be kidding, right?

Individual human goes to jail or prison for $2k tax fraud, but … big tech gets a free pass on that kind of “accounting”??

couldn’t be determined??

Either run a tight-ship or don’t be surprised when it sinks.

Economies are the “ships” that carry our countries, & have to be properly regulated, exactly as a tightly-regulated ship has to be, to keep it afloat longer.

It isn’t the sloppy mechanic-racers who win NASCAR, it is the ones who control everything correctly, with total right-regulation.

I remember when I’d read that Cisco switched to closing their books out daily, so as to always know the exact position of the company…

what an incredible degree of financial-operations integrity that was…

Anyways, “Financial Shenanigans” is THE book to dig into, if you want to know if the business you’re considering investing in is cooking the books… and you’re capable of understanding that stuff at the level it’s speaking…

Obviously, the EU hasn’t the spine to eject Hungary, so Putin’s Ally/Representative in the EU will remain disabling the EU’s strategy, in all ways possible…

I wonder how many extra thousands of EU troops will die in the escalations of Russia’s aggression, through the next decade(s), as a result of their current-spinelessness?

( remember the English appeasers of Hitler helped the Nazis, & remember that Stalin was providing supplies to the Nazis right up until the day they invaded Russia. Having spine enough to do what is correct/proper isn’t common-enough )

This may well work for the repubs, though.

They want dictatorship, not representative-republic ( falsely-called “democracy” by us foolish peons ).

Legalism, which the christ they pretend to be aligned-with, repeatedly railed against, calling its devotees “Hypocrites!”…

https://www.biblegateway.com/quicksearch/?quicksearch=hypocrite&version=AMP

I believe that in the gaslighting-about-being-aligned-with-christ republican territories … they’re going to get that result to happen…

Which only could have been prevented had the dems put Harris in the race months ago…

Conflict-of-interest is the root of all corruption.

“Pro-Life” but they will execute oceans of lives, in their regime.

I expect full-on human-sacrifice worship of Trump within 4y of his gaining dictatorship.

( there’s been continuous human-sacrifice-cult activity in the Americas, Central & northward, for about 11.7 millenia, ttbomk.

This won’t be anything new: it’ll just be the same-old same-old getting blatent about it.

I bet every one of you an imaginary-dime, right now, that the “uncanny valley” is going to be stark on Trump’s face, within 4y, to those who aren’t his worshippers.

I don’t know if there’s a remind-me-bot thingy for lemmy, but if there is, & anybody wants to set a reminder, so you can prove me wrong, go for it.

I think this bet of mine is certain.

Rule # 1 in dictatorships:

THE PURGE happens, up-front.

Remember “Q” was pushing that that would happen?

The prediction was early, but it was spot on.

As I’ve been saying for years, now.

This escalation will continue,

until big-tech forces the governments to kneel to the surveillance-capitalism biggest:

They will simply say something like:

"Either your government removes laws, regulations, accountability, etc, from us,

XOR we are hamstringing your country: we OWN you, we POSSESS you, & you will obey OUR rule."

I guarantee this will be happening between now & 2036.

Remember how they can ratchet-up a genocide, anywhere??

They’ve already done so, in some places…

( Facebook & … was it Myanmar? as 1 example )

Sooo close…

It isn’t the 2nd US CivilWar,

rather, it is the US Civil War Part2.

Not the US Revolution at all,

rather the Confederates revolution, within the US ( a “reverse takeover”, since they never really surrendered, in the previous half of the US’s Civil War, back before the 1900’s )

This is … ludicrous:

I’ve read that in the Jewish culture/religion that Yehoshua “Jesus” benJoseph, the woke socialist convict, grew up in, there was legal-divorce,

& there was a kind of rule, too:

“you aren’t allowed to marry someone, if you aren’t mature-enough to divorce them honestly/fairly/sanely” in that culture…

I’m not remembering the exact phrasing of it, obviously, but that was the essence of it.

IF you were too immature to divorce responsibly, THEN you were too immature to marry, in the 1st place.

For … to use a phrase from the Christian bible, just updating it to modern terminology … “those who call themselves Christian … but are not” to be warring against wokeness … in the name of the wokest guy in the entire New Testament, … & to be warring against socialism … in the name of the guy who literally is famous for feeding thousands of hungry people who wanted learning/understanding & food, for no money/commercial-exchange, & who also gave free healthcare to any who’d spiritually-earned it … you can see that their bible’s phrase “those who call themselves _ _ _ _ _ _ _ … but are not” is applicable to those who fake ANY religion’s membership, of any culture, anywhere!

How completely shameless can people be??

That it is up to his voluntary-withdrawl is absolute proof that the system never was engineered to be best-for-the-country as its “center”, instead was engineered to allow the politically-powerful to wear/wield the country, for their own interests.

You can’t hide if you’re a bat, pretending to be a bird: the skeletons are sooo utterly-different, that the way their motions work makes it impossible to hide the truth.

Same with this.

IF it had been engineered to be best-for-the-country,

then the country would automatically prevent DarkHexad people from competing for authority.

DarkHexad: narcissism / machiavellianism / sociopathy-psychopathy / nihilism / sadism / systemic-dishonesty

This is inevitable:

Once the people in China can only see the CCP’s version of everything,

& ALL stuff has been adulterated, either by AI or by some agency-or-other,

THEN dissent should die-down in the Chinese population:

Read Lanier’s “Foreign to Familiar” to understand how Tropical-Culture vs Nordic-Culture shapes people, & how old-cultures vs new-cultures shape people,

then read Hofstede’s “Exploring Culture” to understand the dimensions of culture that his Cultural Dimensions Theory digs into ( power-distance, uncertainty-avoidance, “success”-orientation, & other dimensions )…

& when you understand how we’re kind of “template” people, before being born into culture,

but once born into it, our entire meaning gets framed within whatever culture we were born into…

therefore, the CCP can simply remove most diversity-of-meaning from their completely-possessed-population, through a generation or 2 of that.

Tibetan, Uyghur, Hongkonger, Taiwanese, Indian, South-Korean, Japanese, the intent is consistent: "the destruction of " … others … “is the midwife of Chinese supremacy”.

I expect a similar kind of program to exist in all right-possessed countries, as the right is doing in the US, right now, with burning or banning books, eradicating proper education, suppressing libraries, etc, they’re just doing the same thing as what the CCP’s doing, only less-skillfully, is all.

No real difference in their deeper heart/motivation/intent, though: supremacism, crushing/destroying all “other” kinds.

Russia’s big on it, too, isn’t it?

Islamism…

The “Crusades” were good examples of this kind of idiocy?

The “Inquisition”?

The “Buddhist” genociding of Tamils?

So long as the “home” story is … “coherent”, & “justifies” all, then … kids grow up … believing, right?

There’s a book, & a Big Think yt video, on “Collective Illusions”, which is important!

Please invest in seeing that video, & see how it’s actually a delusion-mechanism in our minds…

…used by political-forces, yes, but they couldn’t use it if it didn’t exist, could they?

Like Hitler’s “Krystalnacht”, right?

JUST like Hitler’s “night of broken-glass”??

US has a blanket-policy, that they NEVER bargain with terrorists: once you “appease” 1 of them, then the ALL are certain of their terrorism’s “rights”.

US’s policy is simply to break them.

Nonfatally if possible, but there’s no moral/ideological problem with killing them.

The US … I expect only 1/3rd of the US’s population to be left alive, after US Civil War Part2, & the ever-escalating ClimatePunctuation has finished trashing things, these next years…

When ww3 begins, the ContinuousHammerfall stage of The Great Filter ( 2035-ish ), I expect not 400,000,000 citizens in the US, but 4/3 hundred-million citizens left alive.

133,000,000-ish.

Maybe the remnant left alive will understand the stakes, then…

as I’m “sure” the rest of the world will, by then ( not a chance in hell, iow ).

Socio-political-pressure NEVER kept humankind honest.

Not in the old-testament, not in the new-testament, not in the mahabharata, not in the buddhist, or shinto, ar any records.

IF humankind survives The Great Filter, THEN objectivity is going to be LAW among the survivors, however few they are.

Do you reject that in the Trump/Biden election…

CNN & NYT shut down all progressive issues, and voices that they could, as completely as they could ( & even admitted it later, one of 'em, in an interview, which is where I got their term “shut down” from ),

…so that ONLY the Biden Institution would be??

I’d wondered what the hell kind of “journalism” was going on,…

…then when I found out that it had been deliberate propaganda “journalism” suppressing as much as necessary to push their preferred institution, on their part,

…and to prevent Bernie Sanders from having any significance…

Dear, fuck, that’s was low, of them.

Journalism & what they do are “non-intersecting sets”, nowadays, as seems to be the case with nearly all “journalism”.

I think that Ground.News is categorically better, but don’t know, for sure…

The DIFFERENCE in response,

is ONLY until Trump gains dictatorship!!

Then it will be identical: He’s on the Kremlin’s side, absolutely, against NATO & Europe.

Then teach the parts of Isaiah which show clearly he held in contempt the people, of his day, who were doing what the “Jews” who convicted benJoseph, did, & what the “Christians” who identify as Republicans are doing now.

Teach how benJoseph called biblical-legalists “Hypocrites!” right in the bible.

Teach them all the things in their own bible which identify the “Christian” fascism as being the enemy of their own root-guru/Christ.

Here is Isaiah 1 from their bible, so you can see that what Moses fought against a couple millenia earlier ( if one happens to remember that stuff from other readings ), happens this time not within the people of Egypt, but within the Israelites…

https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=isaiah+1&version=AMP

Obviously, now it’s happening within the “Christians”.

Notice, here, that nearly-all teachings on Hypocrites! are in the New Testament…

https://www.biblegateway.com/quicksearch/?quicksearch=hypocrite&version=AMP

& here is a phrase, right in their bible, of the whole “they call themselves Jews, but are gaslighting” sentiment,

which, as anybody with integrity would understand, is an accusation which can be placed on many of ANY human religion, including the Dharmic religions ( including my own beloved Vajrayana ), including the Abrahamic religions, including the people who claim Science but embody/enforce Scientism’s gaslighting, etc…

https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Revelation+2%3A9&version=AMP

It is a particular kind of dishonesty, and it isn’t limited-to any tradition or culture, no matter how convenient to some ideologies that would be.

Find all the parts of the bible that contradict the gaslighters who call themselves “Christian”, & teach only those bits.

WHEN teaching the now-legally-required-in-some-jurisdictions “10 Commandments”, add this & discuss how this applies to the people who legislate in our countries:

https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=James+2%3A10&version=AMP

“Those who live by the sword, die by the sword”.

Turn their own book’s honest-truths against their falseness.

Excellent resource, thank you for linking it directly,

I request that it be put into some site-wide script,

such that if someone uses one of those sources, the script notifies the would-be-poster/commenter that that is an untrustworthy-source, & to please find a trustworthy-source, instead.

This would be like the beginning of an immune-system for Lemmy.world
