A day after the Supreme Court Shadow Docket ruling. Ibime, come use your First Class in Maths from East Punderfunk University and make up some probailities about how often scenes like this will happen.
nateevs: Ibime on the money again after his terrorist friends bomb yet another sovereign country.
E be like say sovereignty for una na situational construct.
He'll be back with some incoherent post full of illogical soundbites or comparing apples to oranges. And then he'll walk away feeling proud of himself as he'd accomplished something.
Obrigardo: If this is the first thing i see when i come back from the future and without anyone telling me who made the strike, i would basically think this to be a professional terrorist attack. It's crazy the state of israel can do this and get away with, just bombing and bullying the middle east and even north africa. na wa oo .
But that's not even the narrative from the US. A country bombs a major city of another country. A country that is a US ally and hosts a US airbase and with Americans there. No Un resolution, no declaration of war. A country that had never attacked them. And the discussion is why that country had to do it. Just flabbergasted.
But, it's clear, neither Netanyahu nor Putin respect Trump.
Israel: went after the people behind it in another country.
You: That's terrorism
That's what you learnt from your imaginary Harvard academic years.
All your posts are replete with soundbites. You have no consistent theory of anything you write, just rants. You should read Bonhoeffer's theory on Stupidity and sit back and reflect on some of the things you post.
What I noticed about Israel bombing of Qatar is that no one called it what it was, Israeli terrorism. It was an illegal strike, on a sovereign country who is an ally of the US, who Israel is not at war with. How can anyone make the case that this wasn't a terrorist attack on Qatar?
What it's been like arguing with Raumdeuter and Ibime about Racism Bonhoeffer's theory of stupidity is eirily familiar: One of the reasons I usually just mock conservatives in this thread. -Facts that contradict their prejudgment need not be believed. ✅ -When facts are irrefutable, they are just pushed aside as inconsequential, as incidental ✅ -Being easily irritated, becomes dangerous by going on the attack ✅ -one is dealing not at all with a person, but with slogans, catchwords and the like that have taken possession of him.✅
BONHOEFFER: On stupidity Stupidity is a more dangerous enemy of the good than malice. One may protest against evil; it can be exposed and, if need be, prevented by use of force. Evil always carries within itself the germ of its own subversion in that it leaves behind in human beings at least a sense of unease.
Against stupidity we are defenseless.
Neither protests nor the use of force accomplish anything here; reasons fall on deaf ears; facts that contradict one’s prejudgment simply need not be believed — in such moments the stupid person even becomes critical —and when facts are irrefutable, they are just pushed aside as inconsequential, as incidental. In all this the stupid person, in contrast to the malicious one, is utterly self-satisfied and, being easily irritated, becomes dangerous by going on the attack.
For that reason, greater caution is called for than with a malicious one. Never again will we try to persuade the stupid person with reasons, for it is senseless and dangerous.
If we want to know how to get the better of stupidity, we must seek to understand its nature. This much is certain, that it is in essence not an intellectual defect but a human one. There are human beings who are of remarkably agile intellect yet stupid, and others who are intellectually quite dull yet anything but stupid.
We discover this to our surprise in particular situations. The impression one gains is not so much that stupidity is a congenital defect, but that, under certain circumstances, people are made stupid or that they allow this to happen to them.
We note further that people who have isolated themselves from others or who live in solitude manifest this defect less frequently than individuals or groups of people inclined or condemned to sociability. And so it would seem that stupidity is perhaps less a psychological than a sociological problem.
It is a particular form of the impact of historical circumstances on human beings, a psychological concomitant of certain external conditions. Upon closer observation, it becomes apparent that every strong upsurge of power in the public sphere, be it of a political or of a religious nature, infects a large part of humankind with stupidity.
It would even seem that this is virtually a sociological-psychological law. The power of the one needs the stupidity of the other.
The process at work here is not that particular human capacities, for instance, the intellect, suddenly atrophy or fail. Instead, it seems that under the overwhelming impact of rising power, humans are deprived of their inner independence, and, more or less consciously, give up establishing an autonomous position toward the emerging circumstances.
The fact that the stupid person is often stubborn must not blind us to the fact that he is not independent. In conversation with him, one virtually feels that one is dealing not at all with a person, but with slogans, catchwords and the like that have taken possession of him. He is under a spell, blinded, misused, and abused in his very being. Having thus become a mindless tool, the stupid person will also be capable of any evil and at the same time incapable of seeing that it is evil. This is where the danger of diabolical misuse lurks, for it is this that can once and for all destroy human beings.
Yet at this very point it becomes quite clear that only an act of liberation, not instruction, can overcome stupidity.
Here we must come to terms with the fact that in most cases a genuine internal liberation becomes possible only when external liberation has preceded it. Until then we must abandon all attempts to convince the stupid person.
This state of affairs explains why in such circumstances our attempts to know what ‘the people’ really think are in vain and why, under these circumstances, this question is so irrelevant for the person who is thinking and acting responsibly. The word of the Bible that the fear of God is the beginning of wisdom declares that the internal liberation of human beings to live the responsible life before God is the only genuine way to overcome stupidity.
But these thoughts about stupidity also offer consolation in that they utterly forbid us to consider the majority of people to be stupid in every circumstance. It really will depend on whether those in power expect more from people’s stupidity than from their inner independence and wisdom.
Good watch. Tell me how it's different than what Raumdeuter, Bemeruca and Basilico do here daily. And what Ibime has been doing vis a vis Israel and Racism.
Obrigardo: Please tell me if i'm wrong, that drawing by the tyrant predator is not of a matured woman, gross.
Nope, doesn't look like a grown woman. Think about what secrets two grown men who are known to be playboys and open about it could possibly have. Trump is a sicko. And watch all the conservatives with children line up to defend him.
What did the those who arrested you say about it. What of those racist you met in UK and in NC what did they say to you or do to you to make them racist and what did your dad say to you or do to you just wake up and become a victim
You tried to lie about something that is on Video. Who does that? Did you think your description of what he said would alter what he said? And the worst part you did it to defend racism.
You're not well. Levels of Dishonesty. You're selling your soul for what? To be able to sit in the back of the bus?
IjeBos: Trump got caught lying again. The whole letter is weird.
"And may every day be a wonderful secret"? Trump and Epstein were into some degenerate type stuff.
Someone on Bluesky pointed out how not well endowed the picture Trump drew is. What man draws a woman's body with small b____ts. (apologies to the non well endowed). Looks like that's a picture of a girl's body.
raumdeuter: Scott admitted to breaking the law a couple of times which led to his stop. And finally admittd that America is not a racist country I was stopped by police for using a cell phone while driving and not having renewed stickers
Did you ever do anything wrong to be stopped by police? Is America a racist country? Yes or No
And you double down on your abject dishonesty. Do you not understand what "vast majority" in "vast majority of time I was pulled over for nothing more than driving a new car in the wrong neighborhood or some other reason just as trivial." means?
I assume you can hear the words and understand basic English. Yet you chose to mischaracterize what he said. That is downright dishonesty. Guess we understand why you're a Republican.
Ibime: Call it 0.75 and raise that to the power 6 to get the probability of it happening to you 6 times, and see why you are tøø dense up-ståirs to lïé plausibly. Ndi Harvard.
You even flew to UK to immediately experience something my popsie who has been in UK since 1970 has never experienced
You can go impress Bemeruca with your made up "probabilities". I actually took classes on probability theory.
This is a senator who was pulled over 7 times in just 1 year. When facts counter your propaganda, ignore it abi?
Only low esteem mentally conquered niigros are okay with that. They are the ones who during slavery used to be the Massa’s willing boy boy. Eager to please their white saviors.
Imagine sitting at a bar with 3 other immigrants who have white skin and you’re the only one who gets searched for papers. But you make excuses for the ones racially profiling you and justify why it should happen to you and not others.
They are so happy to be less. Such pathetic mental weakness. Black Trumpers are a shame unto their forefathers.
raumdeuter: They have been asking you to show yours multiple times, why are you worried? When you have papers to show
Lol. Jesus. No wonder you don't think there's racism. You're comfortable showing your papers and you think they stop every white person the same amount they stop you.
Ibime: I'm more worried about why a Harvard Magna C Laude has nothing better to do than "will you leave Nairaland if I prove. . . . " Okokomaiko Harvard
He says to Bemeruca, if you went to Harvard and are smart, why do you spend time on an Internet Forum. While He and Bemeruca probably avg. 8 hours a day on the internet forum. And Bemeruca probably liked the post.
I would break down the contrapositive of your statement for you. But you'd just call it algebra. But you are basically saying you and Bemeruca are not smart
Must be nice not being able to understand your own arguments.
