  1. Blacks have no rights that Whites have to respect. After a few centuries Blacks still aren't seen as human.
  2. You may be an exception but most people can't handle large blocks of free time. Some retirees literally drop dead once they stop working. Also you often hear the story of successful entertainers developing an addiction. The other example I use is Covid. Work provides structure and social interaction. So as much as people say they wish they didn't have to work reality is much different. In addition a study was done on people who won millions on the lottery . The only people who weren't broke were the ones who kept their jobs. If people used their free time productively the entertainment industry would be a fraction of its current size. In Australia a lot of retirees gamble. While some are gamblers most have a lot of time. I used to go to dive bars in New York and there were a few patrons who were there all day. While that's not everyone and may not be a large percentage of people it is an issue.
  3. What will become of people when they no longer have to think or work. I reckon that drugs, VR and escapism will be more dominant than they already are. Which will may result in the collapse of civilisation
  4. It's rewarding solving a difficult task.
  5. Black Americans have survived not thrived as a whole. Whenever Black people have succeeded they were eradicated. Power only concedes to a greater power. One possible way of creating more fairness is socialism. However that has been demonised. When you say socialism most people think communism. Without understanding that socialism is both a political and economic system. The following are examples of socialism: insurance; libraries; museums. In fact all government payments are socialist including military expenditures. @ProfD I order for your vision to be realised the population has to be reeducated. Most societies prefer an entertained as opposed to educated populace. This goes back to Rome and is true in the US, which is similar to old Rome.
  6. @ProfD Africa probably has the highest number of starving people of any continent. There are places without clean water, but yet there is an abundance of natural resources. There is always more money for war than food.
  7. It is highly unlikely that Blacks get monetary reparations. If it does happen then the money will most likely be controlled by non blacks. People like equality in theory bit not in practice. So while many will say they want equality. The want it to come out of someone else's pocket. Should every one living in America pay a tax to Native Americans or just give them 1%
  8. Black people used to be property. Some Blacks do well. I don't feel that Black people will ever have the same rice type of success as other immigrants or Native Americans. For two reasons lack of unity. Which may be the result not having a culture or language that they own. Also Blacks define the bottom. Racism is a really effective tool in class warfare.
  9. It is really good. Except she makes a slightly strange expression when she says today. You may have to slow down the video to see it though.
  10. I feel my imagination\intuition is good. One of the things I try to do is be really present and real with people. However I have come to understand that I need a fair amount of stimulation. Whether it be physical, or mental. I just have to dig deeper. I have a fairly challenging couple of years so I want to switch from feeling to thinking That was the slow Jam. I had to look up the lyric. There's another one that is very apt for me. "A change in life can bring good things." I used to think knowledge was the most important thing in life. A few years back it changed to understanding. Now I think it may be community. It is overrated and I have been told that I think too much. And live in my head too much. However I wouldn't change any of the past. Since the thinking and feeling brought me to this place.
  11. So true life only means whatever we say it means. I had a conversation at work yesterday. The cleaner asked me how is it going . I said I don't know. I asked him the following question. How many people tell you things. When they think they know but you know that they don't know. He said all of them. I said well I know that I have no idea. I am bored , I am finding it difficult to find people who think
  12. The following two quotes are from Hellenestic Astrology The study of fate and fortune ... all things are predetermined from the moment of birth, and that there is nothing that a person can do to change their fate, since it is not just external events and circumstances in their lives that are predetermined, but also the person's internal motivations, character and choices as well. ... the choice to act was free, but once an action had been taken, the outcome was predetermined.
  13. Jesus said one of you will betray me. Judas was fated to be that person.
