Aude, my heart goes out to you for all your up against and now the fire.
I met you at the apostaftest in 2012 I think it was. I was with my husband, we stayed in the cabins. We had a nice breakfast together that last day with the Flippers.

A New Video - Helping kids get ready for service
by sosoconfused inhttp://www.jw.org/en/bible-teachings/family/children/become-jehovahs-friend/videos/lets-go-in-service/.
it all seems so playful and cutsie wootsie to an insider i suppose, i am seeing posts all over facebook about how this is just what my kid needs.. this is truly proper food at the proper time blah blah blah blomit blomit vomit vomit... the funniest part is however is that it cuts out at the end by saying "let's practice what you are going to say".. .
why not make the video longer and discuss how you can get an idea for a 6 year old on how to talk to a grown person about how they are going to die unless you study the bible with me..

The method of selection where the little girl tries to decide, also the viewing children try to decide, what item she will need for service is straight out of Dora the Explorer. When Dora tries to figure out where she is going or what she needs choices pop up similar to the WT plug. Dora the Explorer is learning how to find her way in the world, she might need a map, a tool or another useful thing but the WT video uses the method to influence vulnerable children to follow their course of stagnancy.

The Loss Of Power and the Return Of The Angry White Man, 1960-1980
by designs inauthor tom magstadt phd.
who has written among other works- 'an empire if you can keep it' has been chronicling american trends for decades.. 'angry white guys: the roots of reactionary america' explores a specific period in american history, 1960-1980, the defeat of richard nixon to the election of ronald reagan.
he takes as a contrast the cities of nagasaki and hiroshima, which were destroyed by nuclear bombs, and now thrive a industiral centers to cities like detroit which are on the verge of bankruptcy and asks- why.. the era of ike eisenhower seems tame and agreeable (if one ignors the racial subjugation) and seen through the author's eyes as one where democrats and republicans got along.

This explains it...the Polyanna atmosphere in the US circa 1950-60.

Well I think I'm getting closer to understanding where you're coming from. You know I can't say I have a lot of friends here but I know the few times I was dealing with something it was a great place to get feed back and I really appreciated the posters who acknowledged me.
I guess I don't have a lot of expectations from anyone which works well for me, because then when I get noticed I'm pleasantly surprised.
You know I have made a couple friends here. One person whose locale I noticed was the same area I grew up in. I contacted her and lo and behold we were in the same graduating class. Crazy, I know. But I found her picture in my yearbook. That was cool.
Another poster lives in an area where a 'once close friend' who now shuns me, moved to. I contacted that person and wouldn't you know it, she knew her.
I have also made some friends from attending an apostafest. Even though I don't see those folks anymore I see them here and feel a closeness to them.
So it's all what you make of it. Good luck in whatever you do.
