As far as I'm concerned, the sooner we have Socialism the better.
"The problem with socialism is that you eventually run out of other people's money." ~ Margaret Thatcher
usa politicians in charge of the economy for the past 50 years were too stupid to understand how the economy works.
this just proves my theory, that an education on the top tier universities just sucks and means nothing in the real world, unless its in the stem education.
for 50 years usa had zero tariffs on other countries.

i have just become aware of the 2020 us religion census, pdf available for free download:.
https://www.usreligioncensus.org/node/1638.
it's a lengthy read, but there's quite a lot about jws.
Forget declaring the "good news" in all the earth. JW's aren't even doing a good job in the USA. 69% of counties?
link to his announcement on www.jwchildabuse.org:.
https://www.jwchildabuse.org/news/jehovahs-witnesses-sue-editor-of-jw-child-abuse-website-for-millions/.
if anyone needed any further proof of how low and despicable this cult has become, here's more evidence.
Maybe some major news network will pick up on this.
It would be pretty bad publicity for WT if it gets out there as:
"Church sues Child Abuse whistleblower"
it’s now official - the governing body members are called for legal deposition in a major court case against jehovah’s witnesses!
https://www.reddit.com/r/exjw/comments/1ke6cgh/its_now_official_the_governing_body_members_are/.
recent court documents show that members of the jehovah’s witnesses governing body — including former member tony morris — have been officially subpoenaed to give sworn testimony regarding cases of sexual abuse in new york and how the organization dealt with (or essentially hid) them.
The problem for the ex-JW movement is that this won’t move the needle for true believers, even if you had video evidence of them admitting serious wrongdoing, at best you’ll get someone saying it’s fake
I don't think I care what "true believers" finally think (if they ever even hear about the cases). I hope the judgements strike WT hard and deep financially and brings them to their knees. You have to "hit them where it hurts".
Follow the money!

On the subject of Trump's hypocrisy he has been found guilty on 34 charges , he IS a convicted felon
One by one all of the court cases against Trump are being tossed on appeal. If you or I had been subjected to this prosecution persecution we would be sitting in jail because we would be unable to afford the cost of appeals. Fortunately for him, Trump is a billionaire (and has enough supporters who keep contributing) and is thus able to "push it to the limit" on every case. The attorneys fees would probably be enough to fund an actual war. His administration faced 225 lawsuits in the first 100 days.
I hope to see Tish James and Fat Ass Fani (add to the list Alvin Bragg and a few activist judges) both bankrupted and sitting in a cell as it's what they attempted to do to him. Karma can be a bitch.
(Jan, I was late getting back to the party but I think Anonymous gave a comprehensive reply to your question.)
how many of you here remember 1975?
i hope the newer generations never forget.the true believers got shamed for it.
those who were hedging their bets, fared much better.
COULD WE DO ANOTHER MEME?
>>>>>> 1975 to 2025 <<<<<<<<
Another 50 years of "The Sky Is Falling"!

We just feel STOOPID for staying long after we should have known better. ~ 3rd Gen
DITTO. Been there. Done that.
I'm way to embarrassed to admit I was ever a JW and bought into all that BS.

The greatest revenge is living a happy & successful life!
when i first came into contact with jehovah's witnesses they were talking about god's kingdom bringing about a peaceful new world.
the scripture used being psalm 37:10,11 "just a little while longer and the wicked will be no more.you will look at where they were and they will not be there., but the meek will possess the earth and they will find exquisite delightin the abundance of peace..".
i took this to mean, then, that when jehovah intervened, at his appointed time, it would be instantly, invisibly, and painlessly.
In Paradise everything will be provided like magic -- POOF!
No need to toil and labor for crops, the food will be so abundant one can just go pick all you require or desire. And the sun will cook it, and the streams will clean up the mess.
What about all the rubble post Armageddon. The Caterpillar will never run out of fuel or break down. (Amazed that it survived? No doubt the Anointed Warriors knew it would be needed for demo & clean up.)
Clothes will never wear out. (And you thought everyone would be naked like Adam & Eve! Well, at least not in the WT pictures!)
"They will build homes." Or, so it says. Wonder who will cut the trees and mill the lumber? And evidently streams will be EVERYWHERE, and so will beaches, . . . and mountains -- just as in all those pictures. AND, the animals will be tame. AND, their poop will miraculously . . . . disappear or . . . well, who knows. There ain't no poop in the pictures (nor anyone shoveling it up.)
Sound like a "dreamy life"? It is! Nothing but a dream 100%.
Doc
does anyone feel the same way?
i am not anti-video, just feeling overload.
since the jw organization started video production there has been such a flood of it that no one can, or possibly even wants to keep up with it all: some thoughts and questions i"ve had -.
It helps them get their message across EXACTLY as they want it, vs allowing individual variation even by diehard JWs.
i like to take a peek at the kids over on reddit every week or so.. this thread caught my eye:" curious….
do any ex jw or pimo, still believe the world is ending.
i see people who have never been witnesses think that the world will end soon and they say things like “jesus is coming soon”….
I'm 77 so i am living in the time of my end. But no hurry. - Stan
Exactly my thoughts. (About my age, not yours, Stan.)
I'm quite certain I'm living in MY "End Times".
As far as anything pertaining to Biblical "prophesy" -- Sorry folks, but that's all BS.
