Government social programs that monetarily penalize women and children if she is married, and reward unmarried women for having more children, is a huge marriage destabilizer. It is also a huge problem for boys growing into men that feel useless, because that is how that portion of welfare society is guided to think. It is a systemic government dependence cycle.( Also guaranteed votes for a specific party.)

Candace Owens interviews Douglas Murray
by LoveUniHateExams inyeah, so the candace owens show is apparently in london and douglas murray is the person interviewed.. they cover a range of topics that are current and connected to murray's new book (the madness of crowds: gender, race and identity).. i've not got his new book but it seems to be good.
owens and murray both make good points and it's a joy to listen to them together.. enjoy .... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q4o9yqrby9q.

Netflix “Explained: Cults”
by Butterfly607 inhas anyone else seen the netflix documentary “explained: cults”?
i thought it was well done.
i feel like a jw might watch it and feel uncomfortable as the show goes through the definition of cults and then the step by step indoctrination process.

Islam is RIGHT about Women
by Simon inapparently someone put this short message on posters and it's driving people mad because they don't know how they are supposed to react to it.. do you agree or disagree?
is it insulting women, islam, both or neither?.
it's a clever sign and really shows up the cognitive dissonance of the lefts identity politics.. https://johnmarksays.com/blog/2019/9/24/islam-is-right-about-women-the-best-meme-of-2019.

^^ What uni said
It is also a fun message to put out. Either way it is said, it brings about a strong cognitive dissonance to the far left, anti-Western activists.

Do You Think Trump Should Be Impeached?
by minimus insome democrats are zealously pushing the impeachment route to get rid of trump.
even if you don’t like him, do you support impeachment proceedings?.

Well, if he does get impeached it would most likely help him even more to get reelected. Pelosi knows this.

Seeking advice
by Mizalisa ini'm not a jw, nor was i raised jw.
for the past three years i have been involved with a man who was raised jw, who at first told me he no longer believed as they did, but who, it has become clear over time, has not told his family or religious community the truth.
he has strung me along for years, never introduced me to anyone in his life.

Miz, there is a fragile narcissistic emotional mindset I have seen. It is covert, very difficult to put a finger on for a long time. Once I realized this puzzle pieces began to fit.
After I asked him to move out, the mindset became very apparent and I saw it clearly for the first time. As if he was not trying to hide it anymore. It was heartbreaking, but also, again, like a puzzle piece fitting in.
Thank you. I have a rough road ahead. I'm no spring chicken and my husband has convinced our 14 year old daughter that I have mental problems. Once I showed screenshots of his recent text conversations with our daughter, to our marriage therapist a week ago, ( my husband doesn't know I have these screenshots and I asked the therapist not to let him know how he saw this exchange) the therapist was quite disturbed and announced he wanted to work with just my husband for 4 to 6 weeks then bring us in as a couple again, and repeat this schedule for a while. I was thrilled to hear that as it was what I was wanting for years. The therapist was a bit snowed by my husband because he is so good at his double personality. I was beginning to look like the mentally off wife to the therapist. I began to see another therapist who sees what is really going on. I signed a permission form over a month ago for this couples therapist to speak with my therapist, but he has yet to do so.
It's not easy to just wait for my daughter to see what life with her father alone is like. So far he has not gone back to the KH as far as I know since he tried to reenter the JW life back in 2011-2015. It's all a crap shoot right now. But I did make sure I educated our daughter very well on cult behavior ad dangers ( without mentioning the JW all that time.) After a few years she asked me if the JW were a cult, so she gets it. I feel much more confident that she is protected from any love bombing she may get if he does jump back in. ( He has not been baptized, which is why the relationship with his family remains good.)
So I wait.....

Do You Think People Should Be Scorned For Wearing A Red MAGA Hat?
by minimus indo you support free choice to wear a political hat or article of clothing?
if someone wants to put a bumper sticker on their car in support of a political candidate or party, should they be able to do it without fear of being maligned or abused?
?.

People should be free to wear what they want. Wearing a ANTIFA or MAGA hat are equally free to be worn without a person being physically harmed.
Any person choosing to wear a political slogan is free to do so, and anyone harming them for doing so should be punished, arrested.
It seems to me the far left has increasingly been trying to suggest taking this countries freedoms away. Even to the point of violence.
