You’re welcome Strega.

keep thinking how it is nearly impossible to avoid the trap of positing free will and in doing so condemning the others. I am keenly aware of it and in the moment i FEEL that way.

This morning i was listening to a Sam Harris podcast about covid and the lessons we can learn and steps we ought to take. It was a Harvard…[Read more]

Thank you Jake that was just what I needed.

No core beliefs about reality except nothing we would recognize as such exists. That is my gut talking.

Amid the noise and the haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence. As far as possible, without surrender, be on good terms with all persons.

Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even to the dull and the…[Read more]

Adjust my understanding based on new info does not prove me wrong, it only improves my interpretation of how the world works. I get a clearer picture.

Yes, being shown to be in error makes me ask questions, which is always a good thing.

Hamas hostage looking like he is being cared for by Germans back in the day. The recreation of that day is something the lefty’s are working on. Those hostages are eating what we eat. And then ya see a great big fat arm on the Gazan. Does not matter how idiotic the Hamas propaganda because the international media will continue to be Hamas’…[Read more]

I think I have an over-inflated sense of my own abilities, but I don’t mind being knocked down and proved wrong.

I think most people think that their interpretation of reality is the correct one. As I said before, I don’t maintain any “core beliefs” about reality.  I have various understandings about how the Universe operates and of my place in…[Read more]

As bad as the starvation in Gaza is, more people are dying trying to get food than are starving. To make matters worse, as reported by an American soldier in a viddy I put up a few days ago, he’s witnessed IDF soldiers shoot into crowds of civilians committing the crime of trying to get food.

Conspiracy theorists don’t realize they’re on the fringe.

That’s a very interesting finding.  Conspiracy theorists, as a whole, have an over-inflated sense of their own cognitive abilities, leading them not to question the fact that they might be wrong.  That’s one reason why they cling onto bullshit beliefs, that…[Read more]

Once again, AI has miles to go before we can sleep with ease about it.

And those miles will be on fundamentally different kinds of roads. Currently, I liken AI to Reddit, in that there is some really great, useful stuff there, written by humans. I think if AI now as amplifier to whatever’s available on the internet, just…[Read more]

Thanks, Reg 🙂

Have a great week!

“They say God works in mysterious ways. That’s theological code for ‘don’t ask.'”

Enco,

There is such vitriol from the lefties, so convicted in their beliefs that to even question the truth of their beliefs is to commit blasphemy/heresy. Genocide, genocide, genocide and their extended arsenal of weaponized lefty-speak and a mythology supported by impressive sounding nomenclature is primarily an inversion and a respresentation…[Read more]

Qatar and the Muslim Brotherhood winning the war of ideas or perhaps i should say beliefs. The mindless and brain dead lefties are indeed useful idiots. Human rights be damned. Prayer rugs are gonna be in great demand.…[Read more]

Enco,

I have heard/read Egypt has a duty under international law and other irrelevant requirements to allow egress to the Gazan noncombatants. A link follows that explains in part but the duty is imposed on other bases as well. And that is without even considering the morality of the situation. Egypt was fighting Hamas secretly in concert with…[Read more]

Ppl still on god fr no cap.

RE the Gen Alpha:

“Not the MAGA squad speedrunning democracy% on Nightmare difficulty 💀☠️ Bro voted like it’s 1776 with WiFi and thought Jesus co-signed the tax fraud. Now they in the group chat like ‘wait, why gas $12 and my AR-15’s in evidence?’ 😭📉 NPC behavior. Bible thumping with zero patch notes. Frfr, they about to find out Revelatio…[Read more]

From one of the channels I subscribe to…(Israel 365, not C. Kirk).

@Jake

Tell you what: I won’t use Al Jazeera as a source if you won’t use Jerusalem Post.

How do you distinguish between people and sources like me who decry the actions of the Israeli government and people who simply hate Jews. It appears to me that, to you, there’s no difference.
