  • Paragone@lemmy.worldtopolitics @lemmy.world•Musk Knows Trump Will Lose to Harris
    315·
    3 months ago

    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”…

    not the article on toddlers, that I wanted, but … illuminating-as-hell, unfortunately…

    nearly doubled in a few years, eh?

    Bah. )

    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

    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…

    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.

    Because it is sooo late in the arbitrary-election-cycle, no matter what the Dems do, they’re fucked.

    Go with Biden?

    Then they’re fucked.

    Go with Kamala Harris, whom the white-supremacists have been working against for years?

    Then they’re fucked.

    Find somebody else?

    There isn’t time, so then they’re fucked.

    This highlights the category of political-lesson that you have to “fail early & fail often” ( to use a phrase from successful serial-startup founders ) in order to find the robust candidates whom you can currently win with.

    UNlike the way the Dems have played.

    The CNN+NYT “shutting down” of progressive-issues & progressive-voices, in the last election, burned too much potential out of existence, and that traction is gone: non-recoverable.

    The mega-entitlement of the Biden insitution is buckling & collapsing with increasing obviousity.

    I fucking told everyone so, again & again & again, but it was all my “delusion” & “incompetence” & “defectiveness” & “lies”, was it??

    Trump is going to become the US’s dictator,

    & is going to begin the 2nd half of the US’s Civil War ( the Confederates only pretended to surrender, & now are earning a “reverse takeover” ), & the butchery will probably reduce the US’s population by 2/3rds, within 12y, counting all the consequences both direct & indirect ( complete failure to manage a hurricane’s landfall costs much more life than does managing it competently: multiply that by a dozen per year, & you’ve got human-costs up the gills, without even considering atmospheric-rivers, megadroughts, quakes, wildfires, or any other kind of disaster to multiply costs on, right? ).

    it is infuriating to see people insist that “social pressure will make this work”, millions of times,

    while it measurably, proveably, isn’t working, but that is what Natural Selection at the species-level means, isn’t it?

    Terminal Species-ending Butchery.

    Sunak’s obliteration of his own party, Kim Campbell’s obliteration of her own party, what was that Liberal premier who wiped out her own party, in Ontario, can’t remember that one’s name…

    Social-pressure never acts when it is needed, it only acts when it gets around to feeling comfortable with acting, and that is consistently too-late.

    So, when will the Democratic Party admit they need to change gears??

    After they’ve fundamentally lost, is when.

    Imagine running a bunch of freight-trains that way: “oh, we’ll slow-down when we feel a collision beginning, but until then, we’re really fine, & there’s no indication of any real need to be doing anything different, is there?”

    Feelings are the wrong metric for preventing this kind of catastrophy.

    frustration-rage

    Authority needs to have hard walls, bright lines, & deadly-force biting its corruptions/entitlements/dishonesties/DarkHexad enactments, etc.

    Political-process won’t ever allow any such rule, in its dominion, of course…

    And that is why political-process cannot be permitted to own our world’s fate: its conflict-of-interest, & its inescapable-corruption disallow integrity from ruling, & without integrity, then only “Justice”, with falsifying-quotes, the phony version of Justice, remains…

    So, The Great Filter’s going to extinguish yet another world, from this Universe, is it?

    Political-machiavellianism/dishonesty’s going to snuff all LivingPotential, LivingWorth, LivingOpportunity of this whole world, while the “social consensus” indulges in orgiastic clusterfucking, until existential-viability itself is gone…??

    Ah, but at least everyone will be able to feel that they “weren’t responsible”, right?

    Social-feelings: that’s the real LORD, and so long as it’s happy, then existence, itself, isn’t actually necessary, right??

    Tell them of a famous guy, the most “woke” person in the entire bible, a socialist & convicted-felon people call “Jesus” benJoseph, who called hypocrites “Hypocrites!” right in their face, instead of “turning the other cheek”, a guy who got *physically violent" on the commercial-operation of the temple…

    See if they just blot that out from their awareness, to fit their ideology…

    Kahneman’s “Thinking Fast And Slow” is the key book to understanding the different mechanisms of mind, in the ideology/prejudice/instinct/reaction circuit, vs the considered-reasoning-circuit, in case you want the real “artillery” of understanding what’s going on in the world, now…
