1·11 days agoYes. He’s not as smart as he thinks he is, yet he is not as dumb as he portays. He’s dishonest at his core and it shows in the way he interacts with others.
The term you’re looking for is social capital and this is what I mean. We agree more than we don’t, but I like breaking the terms down a bit more for conversational purposes. It’s important to talk about these things.
That’s still about power not wealth.
His wealth already is future proof, this is something else. This is about power.

Also, lpt, if you look on google for something, add the boolean “before:2022-11-30” to your search for better results. That is the date ChatGPT was released. You can also compare threads before that date with what you see today for reddit by using the search “site:reddit.com before:2022-11-30”. Try doing that with one of the topics I initially mentioned or going on the Wayback Machine before that date and you will see a difference.
Generic usernames, the randomly generated ones, newer accounts, especially since the rise of ChatGPT and when they were gearing up for making Reddit public. Look for ones that do not really add substance and often argue for arguments sake (not to be confused with a troll). It is a vibe too. Knowing how these things are made helps, look into AI agents, and kind of knowing what trolls actually are too, for that check out this book.
Don’t forget stumbleupon.
I’ve found them periodically in r/worldnews, r/politics, and they are easy to spot on anything related to Gaza/Israel, Russia/Ukraine or things like crypto and finance. That’s where to go if you don’t want to look too hard. The other day I’m pretty sure I saw the same comment reposted several times across the same subreddit when sorted by top by year, something really generic with the same slightly off punctuation along the lines of “This community is the best!” It is really interesting to see actually. Most of the time their usernames are the randomly generated ones.

I do not listen to these folks regularly, but they did a great job of this. It is a modernised retelling of a famous book from the early 1900s.
Re: Retorts to this in this thread-
But there is a peculiar behavior among most Caucasians. As soon as I become critical of Europe and its impact on other cultures, they become defensive. They begin to defend themselves. But I am not attacking them personally; I’m attacking Europe. In personalizing my observations on Europe they are personalizing European culture, identifying themselves with it. By defending themselves in this context, they are ultimately defending the death culture. This is a confusion which must be overcome, and it must be overcome in a hurry. None of us has energy to waste in such false struggles.
Caucasians have a more positive vision to offer humanity than European culture. I believe this. But in order to attain this vision it is necessary for Caucasians to step outside European culture — alongside the rest of humanity — to see Europe for what it is and what it does.
note: “Europe” here refers to imported European culture in America
2·20 days agoNow it probably makes me sound old, but I think a lot of you youths would be changing your tune after trying one. I was so much faster at typing and navigating on one of thase than a touch screen, even with gestures.
I’d be on a beach, half drunk, with a book. That’s it. Y’all are crazy making more work for yourselves lol.
Well this is extremely useful.
Mine somehow morphs into a spider when I do the sheets.
