  A Cult Tactic: Removing Guilt By Dehumanising Others

  by pale.emperor in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  in the real world, very few parents would disown their own children simply because they read a magazine that told them to do it.

  very few people would forever completely ignore their own parents because an elder got up on a platform one day and announced that they no longer follow the same religion as you.. in the real world it just doesn't happen.

  and yet, for 8 million jehovah's witnesses it's very a normal part of their world to treat "other people" differently than they'd treat each other.

  Wacky Baccy Eh! Cannabis Now Legal in Canada

  by Simon in

  2. medical

  so canada has legalized pot / marijuana / cannabis and you can go to stores today and buy some.

  the local news is covering it here in calgary with crowds of thousands expected at one of only 2 stores licensed in the city but last i saw, there were only 7 people in the line so who knows how popular it will be.

  i imagine all the people who really wanted to get it could already get it easily so this is more about expanding the market to new users who will be less inclined to queue for hours on day 1.. apparently you'll also be able to purchase online with discreet delivery by canada post.

  This has been the case in the Netherlands for decades with the exception that professional growing is still illegal.

  By the way, in 2015 NL was ranked on #9 in terms of productivity while Canada was on #18.

  love the way GermanXJW ignores the names of the many gang members who sexually abused German women on New Year's Eve across Germany a while ago.

  Why do you "love" this? Is it not because you are compassionate with the victims? Is it only to utilize them for your argumentation?

  Btw, it was not "across Germany", it was the city of Cologne. Bad enough, but not a national situation. But iconic for the far.right who just "loved it".

  Everyday that a German, or Frenchman gets knifed, a lady gets raped, or a cop gets stoned ( not drunk) by an invader, aka "New German", -- in Germany, or elsewhere, -- builds the pressure, that will lead to the unavoidable explosion.

  Recent years, criminal rate went down. (Also taking into account that German pilot with the not-so-islamic-name Andreas flew with 148 passengers into a mountain, and a male nurse with the neither-islamic-name of Niels killed 106 of his patients.) But there are people with some foam around their mouth while writing that try to create an atmosphere of fear and hatred.

  The results will spell relief from the growing environmental impact, lower rents, and ease the bottlenecks on the Autobahn / freeways, Perhaps even allow, from the saved $ Euros going to fake Fluechtlinge, really Benefit Tourists, -- to pay decent pensions to old German retirees.

  Not sure what's your point, but pensions are paid by the "Rentenkasse". And since Germany is, like other mature economies a society that gets older we should be thankful for people coming to us, work here, and pay their share into the "Rentenkasse".

  Retirees that worked in menial jobs, now scavenging for recyclables while some "refugee" neighbours race in their BMWs and Mercedeses near them, or take vacations in the lands they "fled" from.

  Come on, you can't be serious with this bs.

  I notice that it is the ultra-right in several countries that are longing for a civil war. In German we have the word "herbeireden" which means to talk about something to make it happen despite there is no real indication.

  Just watching a documentary on German TV. Forget about those women. It is the Russian connection that will get problematic for Trump.

  immigration: the truth about the lie: crimecrime: do immigrants increase rates of violence?

  there has been a lot of talk about how immigrants pose a threat to the safety of this country by increasing crime rates.

  is there any truth to this, or is it "fake news.

  So, what does it say? That all truck drivers are "a threat"?

  No, it says that she was wrong and some immigrants are very dangerous murderers. Sadly, she died a horrible death in part because of the beliefs that she had been indoctrinated with.

  Yes, and some truck drivers are very dangerous murderers. At the end of the day, some men are very dangerous murderers. What beliefs had she been indoctrinated with? It is a statistical fact that among a larger group of people some turn criminal.

  Simon, you are creating a strawman of "beliefs that she had been indoctrinated with" and than attacks it. This is not fair argumentation.

  Never forget...Herschel Grynszpan

  "Herschel Feibel Grynszpan was a Polish-Jewish refugee, born in Germany. His assassination of the German diplomat Ernst vom Rath on 7 November 1938 in Paris was used by the Nazis as a pretext to launch Kristallnacht, the antisemitic pogrom of 9–10 November 1938." Wikipedia on Herschel Grynszpan
