Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

It's about the wavelength. Ours is way out of spectrum on both sides.
Both sides? What's the "other side" in this one, people who don't want their kids forced to pray to Jesus in school? People who don't want to live under the Christian version of Iranian theocratic rule? Genuinely curious what you think the other side of the spectrum looks like.
We might tell our kids to read Thus Spoke Zarthustra
Anyone they target. Some people chose to be there and some don't. Take Marylin Manson, the Satanic Temple, women in general, etc. If no one chooses to then it's one chosen by them.
Wavelengths function just as much in the story as it does in physics. The story is just another dimension of reality. It's like time but we have more control over it than we do over time. The control goes more the the understanding. Knowledge is a tool like many others but just one of many such.
If you'd like more, I'm capable of continuing but I suggest Loki S02E01, Doctor Who's newest episode broadcast last night, Salvia Divinorum, Dextromethorphan, Therion, Xandria, and that's not a bad start. There's certainly more.
This response feels like it was written by AI. Or maybe someone who has indulged in psychedelics too much and too frequently to be able to communicate ideas in a clear or concise manner.
Not too much. Those gave me understanding. Communication has been difficult my whole life, even before they gave me dope.
Once you can perceive dimensions most don't even know exist, and you have enough difficulty expressing shit "normal" people don't understand, you have this kind of ignorance to deal with.
Like, the bit where you're going to think I'm insulting you and your intelligence. Wise up, those are NOT the definitions of those words. Stop playing slang like you get anything at all beyond word pukage. You will if you study history. Don't take my word for it. Do your own research.
Are the dimensions in the room with us right now?
About as likely as any moving neutrinos.
Is this an ad?
No. I don't get paid to say anything here. I am practicing the art of communicating things I want to help other people understand. I lack enough skill in exactly that and this platform serves well to develop it in order to accomplish my objective.
What is your objective?
Stop the inevitable death of all human life on earth. Inevitable, as in, within the next decade. If not the baking planet, then the bio-, tech-, software-, etc.- viruses, or the microplastics, pollutions, etc. etc. etc.
I have the only solution viable but in two decades of attempting to teach anyone willing to listen, only one has gotten far enough to understand the logic. I just managed to add a second one willing to listen but IDK if he understands it yet. I have had about a dozen express a willingness to learn but no one has actually finished the lesson yet. I even offer a free computer in exchange for taking the "class" and teaching me how to teach people.
I need to learn cuz I am, to say so mildly, unorganized in my teaching. I know this and thus offer something to anyone willing to teach me how to teach. No but a very rare few listen to origin of this logic. I want to figure out how to increase the number of those aware of the logic itself. Orders of magnitude a larger a population aware of the logic.
Logic becomes understood by the masses, we will easily reorganize the entire planet of society with disintegrate and rebuild itself into something that may not only survive but save life's existence from the inevitable EOTW incoming.
Try to limit your arguments to premises that are largely independently accepted, so it's less of a leap for people to see how you got to your conclusion.
You come across a bit like me 20 years ago, when I had ideas that may have had merit, but my ability to communicate and reason wasn't at the level necessary to get others onboard.
Each time you make a bold jump in reasoning that isn't perfectly supported by accepted premises, you lose some % of your readers (assuming they are interested in fact, rather than opinion).
I'd accept that if death wasn't going to be here tomorrow.
