New York City...OMG What Is Happening??

by minimus in

look at the new york post online today and watch the videos of mayhem and destruction to the city with fires all over manhattan.

the police vehicles are being destroyed and torched and the rioting just goes on and on.. i regularly went to nyc sometimes once a month for years.

now, who on earth would want to go to this hellhole??.

Before long, it will be the whole planet. Communism is spreading through the cities, and when Biden and the Lizard become president and vice president, we are up s*** creek without a paddle, in a barbed wire canoe. The law will be against anyone that is against communism, not against those that are ruining it for everyone. In addition, we will lose all of our monuments. Names such as Washington, Franklin, Lincoln, and Jefferson will be deemed as offensive as "Hitler" is today--and all our symbols will be deemed offensive. Even old coins (and by "old", I mean Indian head cents, Buffalo and Jefferson nickels, Washington quarters, Barber and seated liberty coins, and even the Lincoln pennies.

And yes, they will have plenty of resources to come after anyone possessing these things. They will also go after everyone that tries keeping history alive. Even such as music from the past will go down the memory hole. Remember rap music? Heavy metal? Disco and funk? Hard rock, bubblegum, psychedelic rock, and even soft rock? Country? All except Barbra Scheißand goes right down the memory hole. And yes, they will prioritize enforcement of this rule instead of keeping our cities safe.

When? As soon as Biden and The Lizard take office.

''Jehovah, please make Covid 19 go away so we can back to our meetings.'' AMEN!

''brothers, let's not fool ourselves.

this virus is really hitting our business finances.

our brothers and sisters are loving every minute of the local congregation zoom meetings.

Pray to joke-hova to make it end? That monster would rather it continue, and get worse (mandatory vaccinations that make you utterly dependent on those big drug companies and enslave you to them). It would rather have people continue doing more in spite of the hardships instead of removing or reducing them.

Post your experiance with JWs who did not save for retirement and had to work or live off off SS till death

by wolverines in

but one i remember was a full on dyed in the wool believer how was a farmer.

around 1975 he sold his farm moved his family to a very rural place and waited for the end to come.

he ended up working for his brother in law hanging drywall.

I have seen all too many of them putting $20 bills in that contribution box as if they were water. Not only do they not save money, they waste it. And most of them have nothing. They rent apartments, they have beat-up cars (and "beat up" can mean the floor is falling apart, and you can see the road through it, rendering it unsafe), they have more Junk Mart stuff that will not last, they lack food stock enough to get through a 2 week disruption, and they have practically zero investments in any way, shape, or form.

Instead, they waste their money. Donations are the top waste of money. They also waste money on Grand Boasting Sessions (the trips and hotel stays are expensive). Suit dry cleanings are very expensive--and they look down on anyone that uses garment bags to put their suits in the laundry in the gentle cycle instead of using toxic chemicals. They eat lunch at McDonalds every day, wasting even more money to ruin their health (almost as bad as those cancer sticks).

I never invested in anything much until the end of 2010, when I got my first 1/10 ounce of gold. During the 2010s, I have been loading up on silver. Silver in the form of 1 ounce coins and bars, silver in the form of old coins (soon to be banned for political correctness), silver in the form of foreign coins (including the Australia Kookaburra and Austria coins). I also have my coin collection growing back (including buying the Indian cents I got rid of, pre-1964 Jefferson nickels and older, and a few common date, high grade odd coins). I got one Large Cent in VF condition, a 2 cent piece in VF, a Shield Nickel in XF (those are hard to find), a 1950 D Jefferson Nickel in uncirculated condition (again, those will be hard to find, political correctness ban or none), some Seated Liberty dimes and quarters in VF to XF condition, and even one Capped Bust dime (in VG condition).

While you may prefer other financial assets that are denominated in paper, I prefer the metals. But, both are preferable to nothing--preferable to wasting your money donating to the enslavement of the whole planet.

Out Of All TV Shows Over The Years Which Were Your Favorites?

by minimus in

jw
friends

the sopranos was my number one show.

to me it was the best series ever.

for a good laugh, i still enjoy the beverly hillbillies reruns.

WTWizard

I find some of the shows from the 1960s and early 1970s better than the garbage we have today. Batman, Nanny and the Professor, My Three Sons, Leave It to Beaver, Gilligan's Island (a classic to this day), and similar shows that actually have a theme in each episode are better than this trash that is intended only as a distraction. I also hate that today's trash features political correctness--to me, that is worse than any of the violence and sex found in many shows. I will take the violence and swearing, nudity, and sexual content instead of the political correctness any day.

And, whatever happened to the quiz shows from the period between 1968 and the late 1980s? Three On a Match, Who What Where, Jackpot, Winning Streak, Name That Tune, The Magnificent Marble Machine, classic Wheel of Fortune, Bullseye, Press Your Luck (a big favorite), and similar shows are gone. Instead, you get Political Correctness called reality TV Garbage. I also liked the specials we used to get--including physical challenge type shows like Almost Anything Goes, and some of the classic Disney shows that used to come in the mid 1970s but aren't even available as pirated material these days.

These days, about the only modern TV shows that are any good come from amateur videos, the occasional home improvement shows, science (and even that is infested with political correctness), and the weather report (even that has been infested with political correctness as well). I simply despise those sit-coms and reality shows that push "white-people-are-all-evil-and-must-go", race baiting, philo-Semitism, race polluting and mixing, and warped gender identities. And, after that stunt that Political Correctness ball (formerly known as basketball) pulled in May 2014, where someone pulled an old post where the owner of the Clippers wanted a specific type of person for a specific photo, and trashed this person's future for this, I simply will not support the National Political Correctness Ball League in any way, shape, or form (formerly known as the National Basketball League).

About the only thing that is even worse these days is church garbage.

Watchtower Sues to Keep Convention Videos Off Internet

by Sea Breeze in

https://www.sltrib.com/religion/2020/07/20/mormonleaks-founders-pay/?fbclid=iwar31g8tcjkq3dtzxjx6mhinhqnk6fequaiwu_278zkhia6vmbyb6ha_jz28.

so i guess the wt holds free public gatherings, but will sue anyone who publishes a video of the free speeches?

what happened to advertise, advertise advertise the king and his kingdom?

WTWizard

If they don't want the public discussing the content of the videos, perhaps they are not worth watching at all, from the official source especially. Why would I want only one viewpoint, without anyone being able to examine it? And what if someone is interested but wants to know whether they are getting into the truth or another scam? Seems that those pushing the truth are more open to having their material blabbed across the internet for criticism, even if it means getting a few bad reviews.

On the other hand, those pushing scams will not stand being reviewed. They simply want perfect reviews across the board (itself a red flag--even the best product or service is going to have a few bad reviews from slander, misunderstandings, or simply bad luck).

Do you know of any Karens or Kens?

friends

lately in the news you see more karens and kens emerging.. ”i’m calling the police.

i see a black man looking at me!”.

”i want to speak to your manager right away!!

WTWizard

What I am seeing is more political correctness. Before, such a complaint might, if not justified, result in nothing. These days, if the person complaining is a "protected" individual, and the person being complained against is white, it is automatically decided against the white person. Those in charge usually decide against whites, and they get sued if they don't. And not just by individuals, but by whole groups.

And not just the ones we hear so much about these days (BLM and Antifa). We have the ADL and similar groups that are part of official government these days. They will take an active stand to ensure whatever issues are settled against indigenous people and in favor of what will eventually have humanity exterminated. First, whites. Next, other pure races. Then they will have us enslaved, and no one dares questioning the masters. These groups that enforce these rules are empowering those who are social justice warriors, aka communists, to this end.

As for the names, I have a better name that will not mislabel innocent people that happen to have these particular names. I call them "communists". Last I checked, the given name "communist" is not all that popular, and probably will never be.

JW News

by neat blue dog in

the latest news release on jwdotorg concludes with the sentence: "more information will be provided on jw news as we confirm the details of this ongoing situation.".

i just thought it was funny them using the capitalized phrase "jw news" now.

imagine jwn, the ultimate fake news network 😅.

WTWizard

And with their bias against common sense, it is not worth abiding by. I do not trust the washtowel for medical advice--I don't even trust the government, let alone the washtowel. They are not scientists--they trash science so their lies will hold out. (And neither are other cult leaders such as Fauci, Soros, or Microsoft's Gates scientists to be trusted.)

I take my supplements, at that against the CDC that says they do nothing. I wonder how many jokehovians take any supplements, or even have the bare bones two week supply of food stored up for short term disruptions (let alone the 6 months to 2 years that is now recommended for longer term disruptions leading to FEMA camps and RFID chips being mandatory). And I believe my vitamins provide more protection against coronavirus (and colds and flu) than those worthless but legally necessary face masks that make everyone look stupid, hand washings that deprive the immune system of germ exposure that may prevent allergies and auto-immune problems, and "social(??)" distancing that makes people afraid of each other. Does the washtowel advocate for a simple vitamin C tablet?

Did you ever know a JW who was political?

by wolverines in

one black sister would always slam the jews when there was anything on the radio or tv about the palestinian's.

i knew others who had other ideas that were strange and not neutral as we were told to be.

the black sister would dress like she was from africa in a dashiki robe from time to time.

WTWizard

I have never seen anything that would allow anyone to stand out from anyone else permitted. It would result in endless hounding until we go back to the way everyone else does things. And this also prohibits things like ties that go against the uniform, canvas (or part canvas) meeting bags instead of full leather, or absolutely anything that ties in with a home region. Obviously, when you get a people that originates from Africa, they are not allowed to do anything African. The same with Asian or European countries. Everyone is supposed to be equal to everyone else, and that is completely dull.

So much for joke-hova wanting diversity.

Did The Elders Bother You or Did You Get Along With Them OK?

by minimus in

jw
friends

i’ve heard a number of horror stories regarding elders.

i have a lot of stories about elders, some funny, some not so.. were all your experiences with elders bad?.

did you like any?.

WTWizard

We had one that was halfway decent and several others that were total idiots when I was in. Then the halfway decent one moved out of the congregation, leaving mostly communists there. And when I tried looking up the congregation online to see who was in charge, the lead hounder was one I remember as being total communist.

Needless to say, if I ever have the occasion to speak with them, I will do so in German. None of them understand a word of German (most understand Spanish, though), and if pressed to speak English, more lip given to them in German. I doubt they will reply by speaking in fluent German.

Inconsistencies is the Preachng Work

by LetTheTruthBeKnown in

jw
friends

with the shutdown of the public preaching work.

some take it to mean all preaching in all forms.

other take it to mean it only includes door to door and cart witnessing, but you can do phone witnessing.. what is interesting is that depending which country you live in the direction that was given what to do is different.. two countries (malta and ireland) that i know of were told explicitly not to do phone witnessing.

WTWizard

Seems they only go after the lowest levels of the organization, leaving those running the whole scam immune. (This happens with other scams, along with drug operations--the street dealers get 25 years to life in prison while the high level pushers get nothing.) They really need to lock up those in charge, which they never will (the reptilians that are our real bosses would never, NEVER let that happen). They just mop up a few at the lowest levels, and do that to appease those who want this religion (and other scams) gone.

And all this will do, with a ban on using the phone to spread the cancer, is cause people to waste stamps writing letters. I can guarantee that they will insist on people writing those things all day (just using your printer, or sending e-mails will not do). Hand written letters, along with a waste of paper and a link to the official jokehovian website, will be required. (And make sure you are in your full suit while you are doing that--never mind just the mask.) This will cost close to what a whole roll of silver quarters costs per day (or a halfway decent starter supply of basic food and supplies). Which people do not have.

I wonder how much more it will cost if people start sending these letters back postage due, with weights attached. Again, it will be those writing the letters and not those in charge that get hit with the charges. Put more burden on those at the bottom, along with the legal trouble, while those at the top are protected by the reptilians running this planet.
