Go Bag and Catastrophes

by StephaneLaliberte in

i live with my parents in law and yesterday, my mother in-law was very nervous about an email she got from the brothers in her congregation.

it was asking if she would be able to receive people over at our house should there be a catastrophe.

so, she asked me if i would agree with this.

Jeremey said that the Borg literally is just ''one announcement away'' from giving directives in which the Sheeple will be instructed to do something extraordinary.

they live on this fear mongering. I remember when I was in every so often, there were these warnings as if something was about to happen. The only way they can keep things going is keep people hanging on in fear.
I bet the extraordinary thing is that in-person preaching will stop. I really see that happening. Think about it, all the upside is there: Sit home and write letters while you count hours. The org gets their hours. Contributions are coming in, and JWs don't get confronted at he doors.
Being a JW today is easy.

Do You Think Trump Will Make A Comeback?

by minimus in

jw
friends

do you think he could get reinstated as president?

do you think trump will run again for president or do you think he will just be a force for the republican party behind the scenes?.

redvip2000

Don't think so.

He would get plenty of votes, but many associate Trump with unrest and division so I think DeSantis really has a strong chance of winning. I completely would vote for him, and I think he would cruise to a victory.

Strong female characters in film before the 'Woke Era'

by LoveUniHateExams in

since about 2015, hollywood has congratulated itself and circle-jerked over the 'strong women' characters they've written.

i'd say this roughly began with rey in the force awakens (2015).

what hollywood forgets is that strong characters have to have a personality, otherwise audiences don't really relate to them.. well, hollywood should really stop patting themselves on the back as if they've done something special.. strong female characters have been a staple for decades.. here's one: private vasquez, from aliens (1986).

Here's one: Private Vasquez, from Aliens (1986). She isn't stunning and brave like today's feminists

I remember that movie. She was a badass. Got curious about this. Went to look her up. Turns out that private Vasquez wasn't even hispanic. Jewish, I think, which of course means that today she would not have gotten that job under the guise of culture appropriation infringements.

Here she is today

What happened to the "Ark of Salvation" Jehovah`s protection for the faithful in troubling times ?

Jellohoba always comes out shinning. Never expected to do anything. Corona virus, hurricanes, nuclear war, doesn't matter what it is. You can count on Jellohoba to sit on his ass along gzillions of angels doing nothing.

Remember that god only acts in past -- as written in the fairy tale book -- or in the near future which of course keeps getting pushed down the road. Don't expect any action in the present moment.

israel retaliated and some are accusing israel of an “act of terrorism”.

evidently these rockets are trying to get to tel aviv but the dome is getting overwhelmed.. i wonder if the usa and other nations will come to israel’s defense..

redvip2000

and they could have an independent country if they were willing to negotiate. But a negotiation can only happen if both parties are willing to accept the other side as a negotiator. If the palestinians think that Israel has no right to exist, how do you negotiate with that?

Do YOU Think Biden Actually Won As President?

by minimus in

jw
friends

or do you think trump actually won???

?.

redvip2000

I have been resisting this idea that Biden stole the election, because there just hasn't been real evidence of it. The courts rejected everything presented to them as well.

But the evidence that is beginning to come out starting with Arizona, is pretty damming. I'm not surprised, it's bit foolish to think that the "machine" wouldn't pull strings in order to get its way.

Trump, even if i don't like him, is not part of the system. The man is a buffoon, but you have to give him credit in that he has not let himself be bought by the system. And so the system hated him.

If you think about it, it took a pandemic (which perhaps was also planned by the Chinese to make things worse before the election) and rigging the election to negate the public support that Trump got.

David Webb accused of white privelege ...

by LoveUniHateExams in

… and the dude's black.

xd.

no, it's not a joke, lol.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=balig2jw7sa.

redvip2000

How can someone be accused of white privilege?

Privilege is something you either have or not. Even if someone has some sort of privilege, they just have it, they didn't ask for it.

Will Smith's kids have tremendous privilege. All sorts of doors are open to them that are closed to the average person. Yet, I wouldn't accuse them of anything. They were just lucky to be born into their position in society.

it's not easy to empathize with Palestinians. In a way you do feel bad for the way they are treated by Israelis as second level citizens, but here's the thing:

It is the Palestinians who refuse peace. The only way forward is a two state deal, but how do you do that when the Palestinians say they refuse, and that the only acceptable thing is for Israel to stop existing? You can't negotiate with people like that -- they are not honest brokers.

Any Palestinian who complains about Israel is a moron because they should be going back to the Palestinian leadership and criticize them for not sitting down at the negotiating table. People on the street yelling at Israel. Again, idiots. They should be yelling at Palestinian leadership for not being reasonable and refusing to negotiate.

Make two states. Everybody compromises to some extent. Then the palestinians will have a country of their own, they won't need to be freed, and every Palestinian living in Israel, can also leave to the new country if they choose to.

Systemic Racism: What’s Your View? Is it As Pervasive As Some Suggest?

by minimus in

jw
friends

the president of the united states says we have to do something about this.

many politicians and people agree that we are all affected by the scourge of systemic racism.

what’s your view of this?

redvip2000

I again was listening to a podcast today where this college professor was saying that systemic racism is a reality, while again not providing anything concrete that supports this.

Systemic racism should be the easiest thing in the world to resolve. It should take no more than a few months, because laws and policies are fairly easy to change. What is not easy to change is racism because it lives in the minds of people and that you cannot change via legislation.
