To be fair economists are the last ones you can trust on the economy, as they are paid by monied interests.

The corporations can’t see past their next set of financial statements for action that is true. Not legally even by their charters. They could be sued by their shareholders for not maximizing shareholder value.

One would think that would go without saying, but in today’s world, the ivy league suits tell us falsehoods and we believe it. Not us but us collectively. Burn the ivy league to the ground.

Bankruptcy is the limit, incoming.

Even humble life on it’s moons, living with ammonia in it’s blood or something, as they found on titan. Lakes of methane, with methane rain replete with lightning. Volcanic eruptions of water mixed with ammonia that kept it from freezing and had it in a semi solid molten state at -200 degrees f or whatever it is. From the probe landed there, forget when that was, on titan. But life could exist even there, even if not higher life, they do have liquid bodies. That is the factor for life, the right liquid to gas temperature changes with the right chemical reactions, and the spar of zeus.

What I’m trying to say is I believe in the utterly indifferent god. It likely neither knows nor cares about us. We would go to church about it, but what’s the point?

We do not have all the answers, and we should accept that, from our position on this speck of dust in the unimaginably larger system we live amongst, we should just embrace that we don’t know everything, despite the experts telling us affirmatively the age and size of the universe as if they could know, or the religious leaders espousing ideas the age of reason has proven to be wrong.

Part of wisdom is accepting what you don’t, and what you can’t know.

I don’t really disagree with much of what your responded with however. Creator is a nebulous term. Creating biological machines that evolve to meet their conditions become rather removed from those creators if separated by unimaginable large distances between solar systems. There is no way any being seeding life would survive to watching it evolve over billions of years, even if some form of transport could break the speed of light, which I believe to be impossible.

Yeah it’s a coin toss whether they would want to check us out further, or use the galactic form of chlorine on the area.

But odds are they would neither specifically know nor care. In likelihood I imagine there is other life, and not all based on carbon and water. There could be life on gas giants, even on suns, based on completely different chemical interactions.

Any sort of universal god would not care about the daily life of bacteria on a piece of dust in an unimaginably larger system.

They didn’t say that did they? Jesus, yeah, that’s what they are doing, not playing the biggest confidence scam in the world.

Definitely getting bail outs when it fails. Fucking plutocracy sucks, privatized profits, socialized losses.

It was absolutely planned, if not expressly planned for destroying trust. Planned for maximizing revenue, minimizing costs, for oppressing and dividing the population to exploit them and prevent a challenge to their corrupt systems, and so forth.

No you didn’t win, they are rebranding their enshitification and tweaking it, it will end in the same spot. Just like minneapolis “won” in getting the feds to somewhat back off of summary executions of citizens under false pretense for the moment. No one was charged, the state is deferring to the feds as if the 10th amendment didn’t make it their duty to prosecute crimes whose precedent would allow federal agents to summarily execute a governor under similar false pretense, contrived altercation, and get away scot free. Or a county prosecutor.

He was in the falklands? What position did he have? That other prince was a helicopter pilot which is actually pretty ballsy.

Bannon was the brains behind the party taking 2016, crafting his fake populist message.

Idk how you figure that. He is an actor, of course he’s going to have relations to his home country.

Indeed. All of europe will fall if we don’t get popular reform to challenge the far right, now backed by the US and Russia, running themselves as reform and all other major parties captured by the establishments/oligarchies.

Not with these democrats and these dumb motherfuckers still trust them. They are quite vicious about it too.

Jackie Chan is the best. Must be a little long in the tooth now.

What does that mean? I remember something on it’s always sunny about that. I presume it’s a smiting.
