Soon I hope that it will hit you about Jan 6. Was a setup by Pelosi and FBI.
Pelosi and FBI told you magas to storm Capitol Hill and call for Pence's head?

I guess that shows how so easily led you are.

I do not consider the presidential system to be better, but I do not see Nigeria making parliamentary work because we do not have the historical institutions required for it.

And yes, I am biased.

IjeBos:
Watching "from afar" the Nigerian elections and then watching the machinations of the GOP reminds me that the US political climate isn't too too far from Nigeria and how it can devolve. From what Reagan did, to Trump calling for protests (dog whistle to violence), the Speaker of the House McCarthy trying to weaponize the Federal Govt. against a City DA, and the calls that Laws we have shouldn't be enforced because a man was once a politician. The difference is that we have an "pseudo independent" Judiciary and a Dem party filled mostly with people who want to do the right thing.
This is why I am interested in USA politics. Nigeria abandoned more rational British Christianity for American Pentecostalism, then abandoned British parliamentary for American presidency and judiciary shopping is already in both countries.

Guess we must tear ourselves apart before we wisen up.

Seems like Alonso might get a penalty for "working on the car before serving a penalty". lipsrsealed FIA is looking into it but it seems the jack touched the car.

I just hope he does not shoot the jack man grin

Trump’s attorneys have publicly said that there’s no evidence of voter fraud. Even the judges Trump appointed tossed the suits with his false claims of voter fraud. Every claim has been successfully debunked and dismissed.
Even the 2000 Mules got pulled and rewritten for touting baseless lies. But basilico still believes it so it must be true.

If you were a Muslim, this your thread would likely read These Bibles Were Retrieved From A Gutter In some Christian country.

Lying is posting what you know may be untrue or don't bother to check if it is true or not. And if you think just a little, you'd ask why Muslims will throw away their Qurans instead of gullibly believing a tweet, which just shows laziness.

Every doctrine is propagated.......your only problem here is your definitions
The difference is in the how. I may propagate a doctrine religiously, whereby I consistently and with conscientious regularity repeat it till you accept and believe it.

But since I do not want you to agree with me (see my "do not believe" above), I am not indoctrinating you into my "religion", or rather, my understanding.

The word "religion" is problematic to define, you will find.

You can’t make this stuff up—Dump just publicly threatened to extort dummy McCarthy. He already admitted he’s going to be arrested and we know that once NY grants him bail, Georgia will issue a warrant. McCarthy can’t do anything to save Dump at this point but by refusing to shut up, Dump is begging for more charges.
He publicly quid pro quoed McCarthy, lol.

Your last statement is very funny.
Every religion is a social system. But there is a big difference between an economic doctrine and a religious doctrine.
We also have what we call military doctrine. Just because something is tagged 'doctrine' does not make it a religion.
The problem here is not with my understanding but rather, your definitions.
The bold is true. A doctrine that is not religiously propagated is just a doctrine. But if I religiously (with consistent and conscientious regularity) indoctrinate with a military or any other doctrine and it becomes accepted and practised by many, a religion it becomes.

You will find that there is a general problem with defining the word religion, which is why understanding must grow.

What are you talking about oga? Communism and Capitalism are economic systems not religions.
The "economic systems" of Communism and capitalism become religions when they are treated as doctrines and when people are indoctrinated with or into them.

Christianity is a social system. Religion is the process by which it is propagated. Even the education system in Nigeria is taught in a religious manner, which is why we believe instead of seek to understand and know.

But I would understand if you do not know what I am talking about.

China isn't religious yet their masseshave been prevented from rising up against their oppressors.
With or without religion the ruling class would continue to oppress.
China is religionised! Their religion is Communism.

Perhaps consider that another word for religion is doctrine. And another word for religionised is (in)doctrinate, which China has very well done, with force.

America too is religionised. Theirs is Capitalism, amongst many others, being the land of the free and the brave where force is unacceptable.

Another word for it is indoctrinated
Christianity Etc › Re: Was Marx Right? by budaatum:
Kalatium:
Karl Marx described religion as the opium of the masses because he viewed it as a tool used by the ruling class to placate and control the working class.

He argued that religion offered false hope to the working class, distracting them from their struggles and providing them with a false sense of security.

Marx believed that religion was used by the ruling class to keep the working class docile and obedient, preventing them from rising up against their oppressors.

What do you think?
Karl Marx viewed religion from one standpoint, and before Einstein's Relativity. Other views show religion could also be used to free people from docility and empower them to rise up.

For instance, if I religionise you to believe that eating fruits of knowledge will kill you and if you believe me, you will be like ignorant naked enslaved Adam in a Garden of Eden not nourishing yourself with knowledge for fear that knowledge will kill you. But if I religionise you to test every spirit like Eve did, your eyes will open and you will become wise and you will free yourself from slavery and become self employed.

And if I religionise you that you are neither Adam nor Eve who were slaves in a Garden forbidden to nourish yourself with knowledge, but instead are created in God's image who has been given every seed-bearing plant on the face of all the earth, and every tree whose fruit contains seed and every beast of the earth and every bird of the air and every creature that crawls upon the earth and every green plant for your food to be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky and over every living creature that moves on the ground, you will likely end up a god or at least a very influential productive being.

It is not religion that is the opium. Religion is a tool that can be used like opium or a tool that can be a used as a medicine, depending on use and dosage. But that is why modern times is moving away from religion to education instead, so that you may learn to use your own heart and soul and mind and being to ask and knock and seek for understanding instead of allowing yourself to be ignorantly religionised to believe.

You and I are no fans of Trump at all, but that's by the way.

Reacting to the bolded. They have suffered enough but they're afraid, and they don't have the right leadership so they don't know what to do or what it entails to fight when security agencies and institutions are being used to intimidate and fight back
They are afraid of what exactly? To exercise their democratic right to elect the right leader?

If that is the case, and they are that ignorant and irresponsible that they are too afraid and do not know how to elect the right leader, then their ignorance and weakness should make them suffer until they decide to become bold and learn how to elect the right leader. It is after all the responsibility of the led to elect their own leaders in a democracy, which, in case you are not aware, they did two weeks ago and are doing today.
