  1. Pioneer I worked as an Profit and Loss accountant for a $2 Billion Mortgage Backed SecurI ties Portfolio. Which was one of the most complicated securities at the time. And when the market had the largest percentage loss ever my boss was confident in me. Even though it was my first job. But I also was cool with the sister who were secretaries and the brothers in the mail room. Most people respect knowledge and integrity. So here's a need flash I was respecteducated for my knowledge and my ability to get the job done. No bitching and moaning. So I comfortably can talk with President and drug dealers and hood cats. And I talk what I know. Cause people know when you're talking Shite.
  2. Add finance to his list of degrees. Pioneer how did you arrive at your opinions about Wall Street, comics books?
  3. Pioneer in can talk intelligently to Wall Street, Main Street and the Street. Because I listen and think.
  4. Here let me school you. I went to white schools. And I was verbally and physically. So up until I was 16 I didn't like white people. I have met white racist that we could have a conversation. I have also met liberal unconscious white racist. And there are a few white people that are respectful and conscious when talking about race with me. I have heard black people who are Pan African but want to dominate women . I have heard black people say I'm a person first and black second. I have heard black people who sound like white racists. Then there are black people that acknowledge the game is rigged. Put on their A game. Takeep what they need out of the white world. Then take off their armor when they get home. So I'll simplif you this. I am am outsider and I am not interested in being an insider. I just want a few outsiders to hang with me. I am not trying to fit Any boxes.
  5. Pioneer no one is shooting at me in Australia. Travel outside of the USA will broaden your perspective. In other parts of the world black music style or admired and copied. I have had the opportunity to talk to both white and black people from other countries. You sound like you're living in massa's Fish Bowl. You're view points is alien to me. I used to think Troy was using you as his alter ego. Since I am continually astounded by your statements.
  6. So true Troy. It wasn't about my colo ur just green.
  7. Wikipedia In 2004, a 2m statue of the dancing Shiva was unveiled at CERN, the European Center for Research in Particle Physics in Geneva. The statue, symbolizing Shiva's cosmic dance of creation and destruction, was given to CERN by the Indian government to celebrate the research center's long association with India.[47] A special plaque next to the Shiva statue explains the significance of the metaphor of Shiva's cosmic dance with quotations from Fritjof Capra:
  8. Everything in a New Age shop and more Astrology to Yoga .
  9. So if they create a little Big Bang. So they want to create a singularity . That replicates the moment space and time were created. So if it goes critics and expands what can they do to stop it.
  10. Did you know they have a statue of Shiva in front of Cerme.
  11. I am an astrologer yet not New Age. And I take issue with people using science or numbers with little comprehension.
  12. Troy I am in total agreement. Einstein was a very vocal critic of racism in the United States. So it's a bit inelegant to say all white people. It's also less than useful to provide an uninformed perspective, Pioneer.
  13. Fitting in isn't really an option to me.
  14. My point was about subjectivity. Your brain is making stuff up and making connections that don't exist
  15. https://ixquick-proxy.com/do/show_picture.pl?l=english_uk&rais=1&oiu=https%3A%2F%2Fi.pinimg.com%2F736x%2Fef%2Fb4%2Fa7%2Fefb4a753c98e227fb3a61fea366a268a--white-people-albert-einstein.jpg&sp=d8761b7730feda42d79500744954d71c
  16. True you have a blindspot but you're brain fills I the missing bit. There's no objective reality. Elon Musk believes that we are living in a computer simulation
  17. Will watch a bit later. Thanks, Mel
  18. Pioneer here is your quote. Nailing women is your capstone statement. Pioneer let's say your Boss is a bisexual male. Who only promotes his lovers. And it took you a year to get this job. Due to a sexuall harrasment claim against you. Would you still not care that people are using sex to get a head.
  19. I didn't know that Cynique. However it is not surprising. Make American Great is an honest statement by Trump. He wants to return to the time that only land owning WASP could vote. The USA is like the Doctor Jeckyl.
  20. That's a great approach harass then move onto the next one. Pioneer you are A -mazeing
  21. Yes but again people have never been encouraged to think. If too many people think the society gets disrupted. So we are being socially groomed from a young age. So thinking is a self imposed ostracization.
  22. The only places I was encouraged to think was at home and at Fordham Preparatory High School. If you want people to think or be treated fairly your life will end. .. like Socrates, Gandhi. King, Shabazz.
