pistolpete have you read "The Art of War" by Sun Tzu?
It's not about war so much as strategy. I think you would like it.
Yes I have, read it a while back when I started College. Good read!📕
i think that for the most part, dissenting views should be allowed to exist because of free speech principles.
one person may strongly feel that something is true while someone else may present “facts” that support the opposing view.
when that is the case, healthy discussion is mostly productive.

i don't know why but sometimes like to check up my old/self righteous friend, gary kennedy from bethel on face book....he is a pioneer in ecuador.
yes and just like most pioneers he likes to brag on his selfless life style.
he is serving the lord my sitting at home and writing out thousands of letters long hand all day long to count his time.
Why does this picture of all those letters remind me of Santa Claus.

Most of us here have come out of a controlling religion. Does that make us more easily controlled in the future because the neurons and pathways of memory already exist inside of us?
Or does escaping one trap set by men make us extremely aware of another one when we see it?
That’s a good question. I choose the second case and here’s why.
Escaping a trap set by men is not the only “Way” that people become “Aware” of traps. Traps are set for the ignorant. But age, experience, and education are also avenues for people to “Become ‘aware of traps”
The awareness is not so much the traps set for us, but instead, -----the awareness is finding out the reality of what the human species is all about.
And sorry to say, but our history as a species, does not bode well, from as far as we can tell, from all our historical records.
Will we ever figure out that in order to live peacefully with one another, we have to share equally the finite resources the earth is capable of providing?
To do so, there can be NO-One Person in the entire earth, that has more power, than any other person living on the same planet.
Inequality in any form, whether (Political, Wealth, sustenance, etc.) will always be a catalyst for conflict.
A new Ruler is asked a simple, unexpected question, after the overthrow of a dystopian, Society run by a Tyrannical Government that dehumanized the masses by creating environmental disaster, and violence in the form of wars. And to top it all off, daily life for the masses was riddled with urban crimes led by gangs, and Government sponsored blood sports.
But finally all that is over. A new Ruler takes the reigns.
quote;
QUESTION;
“Are you preparing for another war?
NEW RULER; "Oh, not now. Now we're in a sweet period where everyone agrees that our recent horrors should never be repeated," he says.
"But collective thinking is usually short-lived. We're fickle, stupid beings with poor memories and a great gift for self-destruction. Although who knows? Maybe this will be it,”

If the conservative side says something they are quieted. If the Libs do it it’s because they know what’s best for everyone. Any dissenting voice against them and you are liable to be removed from the platform
It's like a BIG WATCHTOWER RELIGION has taken over the entire Country.
Try to imagine ONE YEAR plus----- of not going out in field service on Saturday morning----and Sunday after the meeting.
How do you convince them, especially the young ones, to go knocking on stranger's doors again, every Saturday for the rest of your life???
"Remember the days of Zoom? When there was no field service, No meetings to attend? When we could turn on Zoom but leave the camera off and watch Chicago PD.

Now anyone that has a view contrary to Facebook, Apple or Twitter can find themselves banned! This is getting ridiculous!! They have way too much power.
Look at the reality of what the Country is like NOW compared to last year on this same month.
Last year everyone had to freedom to start any business, to post any idea on social media, to chose where to buy, where to sell, to go to School, to go to College and start a career, to go to a hospital and get Chemo, important surgery, cancer screening, ect.
As of today, these platforms have removed literally hundreds of thousands of posters and have ban them for life.
For example; Reddit has removed the subgroup, “The donald.”
Twitch has removed Trumps Channels and all his accounts.
Shopify has removed his account so he can no longer sell his paraphernalia,
twitter has removed him permanently.
google is removing parlor. (This is important because it affects every citizen’s freedom)
YouTube is accelerating its enforcement of what they consider misinformation and closing down and banning thousands of channels of anyone who is considered a threat to their rules.
Facebook has removed the President permanently.
Instagram has removed the President permanently.
Snapchat has disabled the President account permanently.
Tik tok has removed anything and anyone dealing with anything positive the President has done for the Country.
Discord has taken down the server for the donald.
Pinterest is removing hashtags and posters who post pro-trump topics.
Spotify has also removed Trump’s account so that Trump can’t even listen to music.
These same platforms are removing ANYONE who says ANYTHING positive about trump or negative about the coming administration.
There is talk about Bills being introduced, that will allow the government to track down owners of websites that talk negative about the new administration and cancel not only their website but also their means of living.
Remember Trump is still President of the most powerful Country in the world.
AND YET HE'S BEEN CANCELLED.
If the Leader of the Free World can be Removed from all of these websites, actually from accessing the internet, and cancel his ability to basic services, like music, food, utilities, etc.
What makes anyone thing that they and their family can't be cancelled from all internet access and basic services.
on reddit, a pimo elder talked about the co special meeting with the co about all what’s important, tight pants!
omg we have a pandemic, some have lost their jobs, people are depressed, but let’s stop the brothers from wearing tight pants.
also, metro style haircuts.
but let’s stop the brothers from wearing TIGHT PANTS.
i think he will have to deal with the attorney general of new york amongst other things.
i do think he will not simply go away quietly ..
Tulsi Gabbard Democratic Senator had introduced a Bill in Congress years prior to this election called The Securing American Election Act- that IF Congress and the Senate had passed would have prevented Election Fraud. This Act would have required a paper trail on all electronic votes thus eliminating the mess we now have.
But Both the Democrats and Republicans DID NOTHING. So this mess we have now is the result of both PARTIES. It show the incompetence of the leaders running the Country.
Tulsi Gabbard calls both parties out by telling them, that if they were really concerned for the Unity of this Country, they would have taken this issue seriously and PASSED THE BILL BEFORE THE ELECTION.

The deep state which some refuse to believe exists, is making a point. Don’t ever cross us or your life will be RUINED!
Here is a Republican Senator and a Democratic Senator explaining who the Deep State is and the Power they have.
for those who think the organization is going more mainstream think again.
so eating a leftover birthday cupcake is as bad a sin as peter betraying jesus!
(see lloyd evans video) .
I don't get it?
What kind of people would believe that eating a cupcake will cause the ALMIGHTY GOD TO BLOW A FUSE and destroy everyone that took a bite?
This seems like another one of those stories where a woman ate a piece of produce and the Almighty God condemned the entire human species to a life of unimaginable pain and suffering for thousands of years!
REALLY--The same God who created exploding stars, nuclear energy, radiation, gets ticked off because a little kid ate a piece of leftover cupcake.
