Zoom has more than 12M paying customers and 300M free subscribers. A few thousand JW’s logging onto their free version once a week does not even tick on their radar, especially since they have emphatically stated they don’t want the congregations to pay for these services.

Black people attacking whites in the US
by JoenB75 ini see a lot of shocking videos on social media about gangs of blacks attacking white people.
how big is the problem really and what is done about it?.

The question was: black people attacking whites is on the rise
there are 3 explanations:
- more black people robbing whites which would imply the reduced enforcement (because BLM protests) is increasing crime - but criminals don’t racially profile nor are the attacks about robbing people
- black people are increasingly racist (which is directly in line with BLM ideology)
- political groups are directly attacking those that do not agree with them (again, BLM is the only ideology that does encourage this)
Your statement that BLM is just white people is false, select protestor pictures are indeed mixed groups, the videos and pictures of the protests devolving into looting show large groups of black people doing the looting with few white snowflakes mixed in.
I agree with you that the majority of black people do NOT agree with BLM and it is sponsored by ActBlue and other Democrat groups with ties to Soros, but I did not tie ALL black people to BLM, the subgroups doing the increased attacks are sponsored and instigated by BLM, simplified BLM members are the ones doing the attacking, my contention is that black people are being used by BLM to do these acts of violence. There are also examples of white membered BLM groups attacking but that is less of an occurrence.
As to your other point, I agree, BLM does not just consist out of black people, AOC and Julian Castro are members too, you just tied solely black people to BLM by saying they are Hispanic thus cannot be part of BLM. BLM is a movement, it is consisting of the extreme-left wing of the Democratic Party (Biden, AOC, Castro, ...) promoting a specific left-wing ideology through violence.
It’s basically a parallel to the Hitlerjugend of the Nazi party, they were likewise not solely white Germans, they were likewise promoting an ideology and they were likewise not representative of ALL white Germans. However, we do still condemn ANY German, including Jews that went along with the ideology of the party back for other reasons than Jew-hatred then for their actions and inactions.

I’m not saying this doesn’t happen the other way around, but we’re talking about disagreements about politics leading to violence, not criminal and gang activity leading to violence. There is a huge difference, nobody is defending the gangs as a good thing (except perhaps some at CNN trying to justify and decriminalize drugs).
BLM members shot and killed a Hispanic girl shooting at their group from a bridge because the Hispanic group said ALL lives matter, a creed 75% of the US agrees with.
BLM are trying to cancel Goya, a Hispanic staple and family owned company for speaking the truth.
BLM is not a ‘we like to get better circumstances for blacks’, they are a black supremacist group. Prove me wrong.
And to Joel’s experience: this has been happening in Europe since the late 1990s and it’s leading to majority votes now being for the Nazi parties with the other parties having to form coalitions to keep extreme right groups from gaining too much power, these parties didn’t even have enough votes to keep a seat in councils and parliaments, are now occupying dozens of stable seats across government and occasionally winning complete control in local city elections. -

@Daniel1555: As I’ve requested in prior posts, can you please post evidence for your factoids. Where are the 70,000 dead every day? Or even in hospitals if they’re just sick? You posted a single CNN post which was quickly fact checked as misleading at best.
Cases go up if you test, but we’re talking about sick on a ventilator or dead for it to be impactful. Just because you got the sniffles, doesn’t mean you’re going to die and without a vaccine, we expect people to get sick and build immunity.
Also, explain why suddenly we shot up, 4-6 weeks after the country re-opened and just 1-2 weeks after the protests started. Is it the protestors getting sick or the general population? If it’s the protestors (young people) we expect them to rise but the death rate to flatten or dip. If it’s the general population, we would see a surge in deaths amongst the elderly.

Do you know of any Karens or Kens?
by minimus inlately in the news you see more karens and kens emerging.. ”i’m calling the police.

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

There are very few ‘real’ Karens. Nowadays, anyone that speaks out against BLM or Antifa is considered a Karen, black people included (blacks that go against the communists are now called “Oreo’s” for being white inside but black outside).
Do note that only ~25% of whites and 30% of blacks agree with BLM statements, everyone else says All Lives Matter is less offensive. So this is a loud minority which is promulgated to promote Biden amongst the black community (BLM’s donation system is an arm of the DNC fundraising system ActBlue, which will funnel the funds to Biden’s next presidential campaign)
The only way to fight this is by voting for Trump, even if you don’t like him, do you really want the rest of the US becoming like Portland or Seattle or LA or NYC? -

White people and Hispanics are being lynched, there is a ton of video of white people being attacked and killed. Groups of black people are shooting at white people and Hispanics from bridges, shooting in cars as they pass by (killing at least one toddler).
For some reason CNN and MSNBC hasn’t reported on anything of this yet, and Reddit and Twitter and Facebook are actively burying these stories. By chance you come by the stories, police officers are being attacked with hammers and shot at aren’t allowed to fight back. Portland is asking FEDERAL police, which Trump deployed to stop the riots, to retreat from the city to let violent rioters loot and let the city burn.

Zoom is a Chinese internet company which means they are partially if not wholly owned by the CCP. If they forwarded a ‘fine witness’, regardless of whether they agreed with it, their heads would roll faster than you can say Jehovah’s Witness.

When did WT lose the spirit?
by Smiles inat what time would you say that the watch tower schema lost the spirit?.
like the ancient nation of israel which struggled maintaining divine blessing due to a long series of grave errors that eventually culminated in definitive loss... how and when did watch tower lose the spirit?.
can we pinpoint a time or event?.

If you say the premise for us joining is because they have the spirit, then they still have the spirit today as they are still having people join.
If you say the premise for us leaving is because they lost the spirit, then why didn’t we all leave at the same time? Some people have left longer than I’ve been alive, so it’s impossible for them to have had the spirit in my lifetime, or some people left while they still had the spirit.
When did they EVER have the spirit is a good question.

In the USA, why so often is the vote for President just a vote against someone?
by RubaDub inin my lifetime, (i will include kennedy even though i was probably breast-feeding at the time), but it seems that there have been relatively few presidents that we vote "for.
" my list would be kennedy, reagan, clinton and obama.
i'm not talking about their politics here but who generally got voted for, instead of simply voting against.. any thoughts?.

I agree, we voted against Hillary two or three times now, Obama and Trump are direct results of voting against Hillary, both are terrible presidents, Obama got us deeper into and kept us into a recession, Trump got us out but he can’t shut his mouth and just let good people like Barr do their job.
On the other hand, things would’ve been a LOT worse with Hillary, that’s not opinion, she was Secretary of State and part of the reason Obama was such a terrible president. Even with her limited power, she did plenty of damage around the world.
Indeed, the ones we voted ‘for’ turned out to be very good presidents, Reagan, Nixon and to some extent even Trump, they got voted in for a good reason, because the establishment wanted us to vote for ‘their’ pick. Nixon and Reagan were key in first stopping the growth and then later ending the USSR. They had a knack for the dramatic and how especially Reagan how things would look on TV, there is the well known example of Brezhnev standing there with full bear-hat and fur coats in the middle of winter and the US President coming down in a sports jacket - made Brezhnev look really old and Reagan young and vital.
Trump may be a terrible president when it comes to unifying, but he’s at least fixing things. Nobody believed the Deep State conspiracy theories, now the NYT refers to the dismantling of the Deep State as a bad thing, implicitly agreeing with the notion that it exists.

Do you think people will continue to vote for Biden if he doesn't do any campaigns? That's how Hillary lost, she thought she had "safe states" and didn't need to campaign. Biden is just cancelling all campaigning.
Biden's now up just 4 points, that's a far cry from 10+ safety a few weeks ago and we also need to recognize this is not a popularity contest, you need to flip entire states not just sample the majority in CA and NY.
Do you think the v-shaped recovery in both COVID and economy helps? Do people really believe that deaths are still increasing?
