  • Did you not read all of my response.

    Consistency is required when looking at the problems we have.

    This is happenong to Musk, but the same happens to people on the left.

    Smears happen without proof, just for going against the status quo.

    This seems to be a smear for not siding with Israel, and calling for peace.

    Your response does not help make your point, it does the opposite.

    I am not sure what you are trying to get across.

    Reminds me of Trump derangement syndrome.

    Again, we have enough to bash Musk as is, no need to lie or make up things.



  • This is a win for the status quo bloods and crips.

    To me, there is a lot to bash Musk on, but the twitter files confirmed and should have enlightened many of the problems we currently have with politicians/media/corporations being in bed with each other.

    This seems similar to the Russiagate stories pushed by legacy media.

    Smearing opposition of the status quo, then once the population believes the lies, the truth starts to comes out years later by MSM journalists.

    I make mistakes and I am willing to learn, so please if anyone can articulate and explain in detail?

    Why all the baseless hate against Musk, while we already know enough about how he treats his workers to be against him. No need to be hostile or to lie when talking about him.





  • contemporaries (noun) - All the people living at the same time or of approximately the same age. (Similar: coevals generation) contemporary (adjective) - Belonging to the same period of time. - Of about the same age. - Current; modern.

    Allegory (noun) - As a literary device or artistic form, an allegory is a narrative or visual representation in which a character, place, or event can be interpreted to represent a hidden meaning with moral or political significance.


    • What is an allegory?-- An allegory is a narrative story used to convey an abstract, complex, or dangerous message.

    • How does an allegory work?-- Allegory works by giving characters and events in the story symbolic meanings. As readers, our attention remains on the surface story while a symbolic story plays out beneath.

    • What are the different kinds of allegories?- - When divided by tradition, allegories are either biblical, classical, or modern. When divided by literary device, allegories are personification allegories or symbolic allegories.

    The C.S. Lewis And J.R.R. Tolkien Relationship Explained

    • J.R.R. Tolkien led C.S. Lewis to Christianity
    • C.S. Lewis encouraged J.R.R. Tolkien to write ‘The Lord of the Rings’
    • They bonded over their experiences in WWI
    • C.S. Lewis wanted to ‘smack’ J.R.R. Tolkien
    • C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien helped bridge the gap between literature and linguistics
    • They both lost their parents as children
    • J.R.R. Tolkien and C.S. Lewis pursued escapism through their writings
    • Both men enjoyed legendary love affairs
    • C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien received different receptions during their lifetimes
    • C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien held ‘Beowulf and Beer’ sessions
    • Their friendship hit lows over writing difference and religion
    • A fellowship of writers never broken

    Despite the blemish at the end of their relationship, the shock waves of their friendship still resound today. After all, it’s no exaggeration to attribute their greatest literary works to the encouragement they showed one another (via Newsweek). And their friendship would transcend time. How? Through their many literary works where camaraderie remains a fundamental theme.

  • Great quote!

    “Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron’s cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.” — C.S. Lewis

    edit: fix similarities typo

    Awesome to see the similarities between: Newtonian Mechanics and Quantum mechanics

    Coulomb’s law was essential to the development of the theory of electromagnetism and maybe even its starting point, as it allowed meaningful discussions of the amount of electric charge in a particle.

    Here, ke is a constant, q1 and q2 are the quantit>ies of each charge, and the scalar r is the distance between the charges.

    Being an inverse-square law, the law is similar to Isaac Newton’s inverse-square law of universal gravitation, but gravitational forces always make things attract, while electrostatic forces make charges attract or repel. Also, gravitational forces are much weaker than electrostatic forces. Coulomb’s law can be used to derive Gauss’s law, and vice versa. In the case of a single point charge at rest, the two laws are equivalent, expressing the same physical law in different ways. The law has been tested extensively, and observations have upheld the law on the scale from 10−16 m to 108 m.



  • Off topic thought I had when I saw this, more on the system being the problem.

    This made me think of an interview with Richard Wolff and Lex Fridman.

    Richard tries to explain his views on Marxism and Communism, #295.

    He mentions problems with academia, and how it is tied to the corporate world.

    Around 1:41:00, gov’t/academics/corporations are all tied together in keeping the same system going.

    To try and get back to topic, it may have to do with the kind of people needed to excel in competitive areas like a university/company/government.

    Less on taking care of people and more on competing with each other to be the best…

    Reminds me of sports and the fierce environment it produces. Some people adapt and become like them or they feel isolated.
