  1. Troy Donald Trump is about putting his name on the papers. He doesn't care about the kids or the victim. He Is an OPPORTUNIST. He has no ideology othwe than winning points against people who he feels aren't on his team. He thinks people are great until they disagree with him. I believe in self determination. So when women say what other women can and can not do. They are enemies of feminism and are more dangerous than sexist men. Yiu and Pioneer have devolved the discussion into not just being right. But we have to see it yiur way. You are even telling me to stop thinking so much. Hey Troy I am a thinker. And believe people should be free to choose. Even if they are misinformed. So either I am lazy or believe that my path is mine to walk as i see fit. And i feel the same way except towards ignorance masquerading as wisdom. Mel I would say selfish People voted for Trump. Ronald Reagan made it cool to be unfeeling. Cynique if they mean no harm they are prejudiced or prejudging. Faces at the Bottom of the Well by Derek Bell. Is an interesting take on racism in America. Its different in different parts of the world.
  2. Trioneer you are now telling me how to think. I'lltrad the rest of your post later. The reason i coukd see Trump as President is because he is PT Barnum. He know what people want to hear. He has no ideology other than grab as much ___ as possible before you go. I'll be nack on a day on this topic. @Troy
  3. I am not fond of the it was meant to be phrase Even though I feel there are no accidents in the universe. I think really top flight athletes are separated by mental focus and visualisation Visualisation without ability is sub-standard.
  4. Troy yiu asked the question four times. The last two are the question you asked me in your head three times. You responded that you thought he did. Trump is a narcissist a misanthrope and greedy. He uses racism as a tool. What behaviour do you have in mind that Trump displays racism.
  5. What you are asking is Not clear. Do I think he acts in a racist manner. Is not at all the same question as do other people confusedly seeing Trump as racist. I don't need racism to define his behaviour.
  6. Troy before i answer. I am going to go back and see if you asked me if I thought his behaviour coukd be seen as racist. Slaves were bought and sold for work. I know that yiu don'tean it this way. However the products we are sold goes beyond yhe intrinsic value and its the perceived that we purchase. An ipod is blank space. Yet ot cost more than a flash drive.
  7. Cynique i dont feel you are afraid to hope. You are an idealist whi can't stand disappointment.
  8. I think conceptually. So even thingsi haven't experienced I can discuss. I may get it wrong but I can see other ways. It's an interesting dynamic Mel and Cynique see your point. Or at least can accept that it is valid for you even though they don't agree. It's as if your viewpoint stops you from considering that another viewpoint is valid. This is rhe difference between a masculine and feminine approach in my mind.
  9. Mel I use numbers and words to read the subconscious. I feel that intuition thinking and imagination are the same. They are different due to their application rather than how they function. Which was partly why i asked people about metathinking. I decoded every number from 1 - 2099. Then I encoded from 0 - 360. So I have two Magickal languages. I am also creating Astrological charts from words. I'll send you a few if the delineation via mail. Let me know what you think or feel.
  10. I worked as a psychic. Clairesentient. I also read the unconscious and pattern recognition. Although I am not profiling people. I had a few clairvoyant experiences. And two olfactory experiences. Telepathy I am a better receiver than sender. I have had other psychics say that they can see energy around me when I read. And a couple told me my voice tone and ir cadence changes. Up until recently been couldn't feel the difference. However at times i will feel a stillness. Or like i am reaching fir strands. And once i grab hold it sharpens.
  11. Or gender stereotypes with sexuality.
  12. I don't know. But i had a set of twins comment on my sexual persona. The lesbian though I was gay. And the heterosexual one thought i was straight. Some Gay men think I am gay because I dont judge them or don't overcompensate. I just treat them as people. Lesbians it can either go well badly or strangely.
  13. No I instigate thinking but you have immunity.
  14. Troy you have a blind spot on this topic. In my answer i said Trump ia not a racist. You are confusing me not answering your question , with not giving you the answer you want. Perhaps you and Pioneer are making sexist statements. Not racial ones. So the problem is that for you and Pioneer your patriarchal mibd is oveeriding the racial one. It reminds me how some white people can't see their own racism. You and Pioneer are judging Viola to be unattractive and are attributing it to racism. You do know that Black seems ti be really gois with dominating or attempting to dominate women. It ia never easy when we discover our inner prejudices. Thanks for explaining twin. I am going to spectate fie a bit. Del
  15. This picture is nether wrong nor right to me. The imputedmeanung is not in the picture it is in your mind. If enough people share a hallucination we call it reality. Hey twin you may be nicer but you aren't a welcome mat.
  16. @Cynique Here's a brief summary. Its like your soul is male and your body is female. So your thinking is more active. You know your own mind. And arent subject to peer pressure. You also need to feel free. Restrictions or at least pnes posed externally don't take. Then you also can sublimate your goals to work with a team. Leo is the King but being King has protocol and restrictions. So throught life ita a challenge to be respected for you. But not to become trapped in other's projections. The following dates may have been pivotal. Plus ir minus ten days. Mar 30, 1952 Nov 9, 1970 Jun 20, 1989 Jan 31, 2008.
  17. You are neither gracious nor a client. Which concludes my discussion of this topic with you. Nothing is to be gained, and nor ventured.
  18. See my post. It was written at the same time as you wrote yours. @Troy
  19. Cynique there are signs everywhere if you pay attention. My phone deletes posts and calls people. Yeah Mel and I may have been related. Shes the nicer nore diolomatic twin.
  20. Troy it doesn't feel as though you are open to other views. Not when you say are you the only who believes Trump is racist. What does Pioneer think? Troy your statement from time to time. Implies you are not comfortable agreeing with some of Pioneer's illogical statements that are common sense to him.
  21. Troy I am thinker. I will thoroughly explain racism from my perspective. Although I had done so in a previous post. I forgot the Trump question. Trump is not a racist he is an opportunist and misanthrope. His biographer says Trump has no philosophy. Its just grab as much ___ as you can. He did a photo op with Kanye West and Black Educators. With a rather large smile. Donald Trump is for Donald Trump. Why does Melania choose not to stay in one of the most prestigious pieces of real estate. She would rather be in New York. Your TV comment seems to mirror my statement about racism not being seen. In this case you acknowledge and vote with your dollars. However this is a personal choice not part of a larger boycott. I am hesitant to point this out. Since you spend your life promoting books. However Mel point is valid. Your argument is a weak counter. However you spend a Herculean amount of effort to educate the Folks. There are two streams to racism. Economic and Social. For owners its a way to keep Everyone in place. Just like every other ism. There's an intersting article that looks at Slavery as work place harrasment. Using rape of Women and Men as a control technique. Apparently Alpha Black Men were anally raped publicly. The overseer is meant to feel superior to the slaves.Poor Whites were made overseers. Translation your better than them but not as good as us. Pioneer believes his world is the world. You are starting to sound more like Pioneer. I have a neutral position. Which allows me more freedom of thought. Or freer thinking. It's impossible to have an open mind unless you can see your beliefs and assumptions. I am also observing the style of discussion. I saw Leslie Jones do stand up before? SNL. You can say whatever you want in comedy. If it's not funny then it's offensive.
  22. Whenever you feel like deleting a post, don't. It is revelatory.
  23. You have an entertaining way of demanding things. And framing illogical statements as common sense. @Pioneer In this score you are blind and I have faith. So you are half wight.
