  1. Past hour
  2. @frankster below I have embedded the video you shared. There are several tells which gives me pause when consuming content online. I would have normally stopped watching 5 seconds into the video, but since you shared it and it was only 5 minutes long, I watched the thing twice (once when you first posted it and again just now). I would have immediately skipped it after 5 seconds because the voice over said Professor Gates Proves the voice over said we live in a virtual reality simulation. This is simply false on it's face. Dr. Tyson was respectful but clearly was not buying into Gates' theory -- again, Gates himself never said he had "proof." Sure, it is a provocative notion and sure to garner some views (34K in 7 years), but you also have to consider the source: Who is "Simulation Secrets" and what is their motivation? Their YouTube presence is marginal, small even when compared to mine only 164K total views on the channel. It is used to promote a self-published book, Simulation Secrets: Don't Be Afraid by Casper Stith. Now the question becomes, who is Casper Stith. and why should we believe him? Again, when an unknown and uncredentialled person makes hyperbolic claims, I am very wary of what they have to say and generally don't invest my time into what they are sharing. There are simply too many vetted and reputable sources generating fascinating content to be dealing with fringe lunacy. @frankster you seem like a reasonable person why do you trust anything Stith is sharing? Did you know that he is also a Flat Earther? Stith also wrote a book entitled, The Earth is Flat: Be Afraid, Be Very Afraid. Does this give you pause? I eagerly await your response.
  3. Today
  4. I'm not marginalizing China's accomplishments in providing for its citizens. This is what I'm pointing out. The USA creates boogeymen to keep its people dazed & confused about its adversaries. The real adversaries which the USA agitated are countries that resist colonization & imperialism & hate Israel.😎
  5. To you it may read like a zero sum gain..... To many it is a small step in the right direction.....Disclosure
  6. Yes....I defend the video because I respect the credentials of the Scientists involved Can they be wrong...sure they can be I do not believe they are wrong......because this information is not new but old The Video is a recording of scientists sharing their discovery using science and as such is then scientific..... So what are you saying that Prof James Gates and Prof Seth Llyod are wrong in their assumption and assertions? I welcome disagreement....but what scientists science arguments or reasonings do you use to support your disagreement?
  7. @frankster so you’re going to defend that video as scientific evidence. I wasn’t just slamming the caption which was clearly misleading. I was slamming the content of the video, but I guess we’ll have to agree to disagree on that one.
  8. I think American propaganda is causing you to underestimate or marginalized China’s accomplishments. Again, this is the result of propaganda when you’re colonial power, and an empire everyone is an adversary. America needs to be able to flip the switch and turn any adversary into an enemy. We are really very good at doing this history tells us indeed we’ve been on the business end of that type of propaganda for centuries.
  9. No, it’s not just the words is government officials, military personnel, coming with videos that helped change my position. That’s some crack pot on YouTube.
  10. POTUS OJ has such a stranglehold on the GOP that he was able to primary Kentucky congressman Thomas Massie. Despite that Rep. Massie voted with POTUS OJ 9 outta 10 times..the fact that he insisted on releasing the Epstein files & opposed the war in Iran drew the ire of the current administration. In retaliation, the GOP at the behest of POTUS OJ poured $30 million dollars into Rep. Massie's opponent Ed Gallrein. The latter won. In other news, in POTUS OJ dropping his $10 billion dollar lawsuit against the IRS, the Department of Justice has created a $1.7 billion dollar fund to provide legal help to conservatives they feel were wrongly prosecuted. The January 6th folks could benefit from this slush fund. Same goes for any MAGA folks who might find themselves in trouble. The blatant grift & reallocation of funds into the coffers of POTUS OJ is unbelievable. White supremacy is flexing big time on the watch of this dude.😎
  11. Yesterday
  12. Heavily redacted information that doesn't reveal anything reads like a zero sum gain for the public.😎
  13. True What is new now is that .......The Info is now available and accessible to the public True
  14. I don't believe the American people learned anything new from anything released into the public domain. IOW, we still do not know the full truth of the assassinations of MLK Jr. & JFK.😎
  15. That is not an answer.. I tend to always bring scientific info to support my claims.....even when i use some random anonymous guy.... provide a case in point or example when I used some random guy and did not back it up with science.....so that I may correct that instance. I never said he did.....that was the name or caption of the video clip/link. Sorry it threw you off..... what I did say was that we are sims or ghost in the machine.... I don't..... I listen to people who work for those organizations that do..... Now when the voices diverge....then you know something is being lied about or covered up....could also be a difference of opinion based on interpretation of data. Here is where your or our intellect /discernment comes into play
  16. Files were released....as a result old info that was hidden is now in the public domain.
  17. Right. China is not just cheap US labor force. They also steal, er, reappropriate products, goods & technology to sell cheaply to other countries around the globe. They reverse-engineer quite a bit. Back in the 1970s, the US started exporting the manufacturing jobs American workers relied on for middle-class status. IMO, the evaporation of blue-collar jobs here in America disenfranchised a lot of people. Now, they're talking about bringing trades back. If Chinese people & Asians in general were truly smarter than Americans & everyone else, it would stand to reason that their countries would be the global super-powers leading in innovation & technology. My point isn't too minimize China. It is to point out the obvious gaslighting US leaders do to keep Americans dazed & confused into believing China is an adversary. China is not a threat especially as long as money is flowing into their country from its biggest employer & customer...USA.😎
  18. Same guy takes off his tinfoil hat & goes to Capitol Hill testifying before Congress that he's seen somerhing &/or he knows the government is hiding information. Yet, he can never provide proof or evidence. Just words.🤣😎
  19. Last week
  20. In terms of competition for the world's resources China is way ahead of America. As you know China has always been more willing to go into Black nations and "partner" with the people there. Whether it is Central America, the Caribbean of even the Motherland, China has a global footprint. As a result, China controls and processes 90% the planet's rare earth metals which are used to make all the tech gadgets American's want today. Most telling is that China gives us TicTok, but don't subject their own people to that trash... We all know their students outperform Anerican's in math and reading. I'd be willing to bet Chinese kids perform on par with Americans on reading English. Their EVs are far superior to what Elon has us driving around in here in the US... Viewing China as a cheap labor force is short sighted. We are becoming increasing dependent upon them not just for labor.
  21. I would not have posted that photo of Trump. Obama sanctioned the killing of others including innocent people (by accident or acceptable collateral damage). People would be understandably outraged in that situation... I'm sure the post got a lot of views and I'm sure getting attention was at least part of Mark's motivation -- a motivation fueled by social media.
  22. Over the course of the last year, I have changed my opinion in this matter; while there is no proof of the existence of aliens is this plenty of evidence provided by the federal government. I could understand why government is unwilling to say these UAPs are alien -- maybe they don't know. Maybe they are of Earth origin. I never rejected the possibility of advanced alien civilizations. I was just never willing to take the unsubstantiated statements of some guy in a crop field with a tin hat as evidence -- let alone proof.
  23. Your statements were riddled with examples: Of course not; otherwise there would be nothing to dispute. What I find curious is that conspiracy theorist will believe some random anonymous guy on YouTube over the scientific community. Conspiracy theorists love to spread misinformation as you have done. The professor, a Brother, NEVER made this assertion. Even if he did, proof actually means something. "Proof" is not based upon what someone says. Conspiracy theorist often claim they have proof when they don't. Another typical conspiracy theorist talking point. This is why we have organizations doing the research. Where do you find the time, intellect, skill, tools, funding, and resources to do your own research on covid, WTC collapse, contrails, veracity of the moon landing, etc?
  24. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/lawmakers-china-owned-us-farmland/ 40 million acres of US farmland is owned by foreign entities. It only amounts to about 2% of the farmland available. Chinese investors own about 229,000 thousand acres of farmland here in the USA which is only 0.5% of the 2% mentioned above. Nearly a quarter-million acres is a significant amount of land owned by a supposed adversary. I doubt that most people would allow their enemy to own as much as a broom closet in their home.😁 Again, just another example of the BS whenever the US declares China as a threat.😎
  25. Officialdom claims they are going to release the JFK & MLK files too. There's a pattern here.🤣😎

  28. Yes...to those of us like yourself who is waiting for officialdom approval To me these are great strides taken toward truth and transparency. I do not know in what capacity of which you speak of as "no different"
