WriterNig:
Is Trump Europe's new Hitler? St00peed question.
I am glad you clocked the st00pid-ity of your own question there before I could. Trump cannot be to Europe what Europe is to itself, given that the EU opposes the US and has been destroying itself for decades now. 😐😐

Back in 2018, EU voters were warned of what their academic heads were about to do to their continent.


Fast forward to 2026, the report card is in, and we all now see how the academics damaged the constitutions and life in the EU.😐😐😐

➜ Historically, could you be kind to cite a few examples.
➜ Intelligence does not only thrive in academia, yes.
➜ But the grind of everyday life doesn't afford most the chance to live the life of the mind and of actions that can alter reality. So perhaps the academic bubble is a sound bet given the sort of people contemporary politics and government tends to attract.
1. The greatest civilizations on the planet were built, not by academics, but by mostly laymen or educated men who had long since walked the path that ordinary men walked and gained so much wisdom from the journey. Compare that to what you find even today in Europe, Africa, and Asia, and you will find this to be the case time and time again. 😐😐

2. Don't shift the goalposts now! Your post literally celebrates academics, not intelligence!
Dozens of academics become politicians after student group’s stunning victory
Two totally different things. One does not equate to the other. 😐😐

3. It has never been a sound bet. Hence the reason why I offer my "prayers to the Serbian people. 😐😐

Yeah, it's such a challenge to have high standards and be better for it. Indeed, we sympathize with the well-meaning people of Serbia.
High standards? Historically, high standards have never actually been set by those from academic circles, but rather by those who have everyday experience of life and living, business, and struggle outside of academic bubbles. So, yeah...my "prayers" or something resembling that are with the Serbians as they go through this. 😐😐

OMGOSH!!! Our prayers are definitely with the Serbian people as they go through these challenging times. 😐😐

1. Only farmers who utilize slave labor would lose all their workers and have their farms close down, though. There are numerous other farms where use of slave labor is not practiced, and they seem to be doing ok going by the fact that the stores are filled with cheap produce week after week still. (I would say much cheaper than during the previous administration in many cases.) So, are you insinuating that slave labor is OK? 🥱🥱

2. Only farm workers who were here illegally were deported. All others who came in legally on the farm worker program are still here. And this is evidenced by the fact that the stores are still stocked with reasonably priced produce week after week. (Of course, the prices are lower in some other states and counties than here in Illinois or Chicago, but still cheap.)

I bought 3 dozen eggs for $1; I bought 10 of them, which I have almost finished and plan to replenish this coming week; that was about two weeks ago. (I have maintained my diet of eating 4 eggs a day since this past January and intend to continue doing so until I get over my hump.)🥱🥱

3. I measure progress by promises kept(or measurable progress made towards keeping the promise made), and the degree of enforcement of our laws. On both, the man is doing hands down better than any of those in the last 30 years. If only we can get the same results at the State and local levels, and we should see the State and City pushed many years forward as opposed to being dragged years backwards with each administration.🥱🥱

4. Anyways, I get it if you don't see what I see! 🥱🥱

After 2 years of our relationship, I decided to go see her parents earlier this year as we were planning of tying the knot by December, but after she informed her parents of me and my coming in now distance time, they turn down the move and she could not stand for me or make any defensive point but quickly accepted their opinion.
It is sad, but take it as it was all for the best. 🥱🥱

😅😅 but wait ooo are we voting for trump again ? That apocalyptic miscreant is a spawn of the devil himself 😒
Not according to his record so far. He is the best President that America has had in the last 30 years. I know because I have watched the decline of America over the years, wondering what the plan had been all this while, only to find out that it was merely the steady disregard for the rule of law, something I also witnessed happen back in Nigeria before I left. So, I disagree with you on that. 😐😐

Also, Trump isn't running for re-election. Remember, this is his second and last term in office. You must have at least read the Constitution, the Declaration of Independence, and the Federalist Papers by now.😐😐

Anyways, the primaries are to vote to keep the progress going, and this time to codify most of the changes for the better. 😐😐

Christianity Etc › Re: 40-year-old Islamic Nigerian Man Married A 6-year-old Baby by Kobojunkie(op): 3:03am On Oct 31
Shocking new figures from Germany reveal that 358 child marriages have been recorded in the state of Baden-Württemberg since April 2012, many involving individuals from Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan and Pakistan.

Despite hundreds of documented cases, only eight marriages have been formally annulled, and authorities confirmed that no annulment proceedings are currently underway.

The figures were disclosed following a parliamentary inquiry submitted by politicians from the right-wing Alternative for Germany (AfD) party.

Among the cases identified:

- In 2020, an 11-year-old Iraqi girl was recorded as married to a 17-year-old Iraqi teenager.

- In 2018, a 14-year-old Afghan girl was recorded as married to a 30-year-old Afghan man, twice her age.

- Since 2015 alone, authorities have recorded 350 cases involving underage spouses, the overwhelming majority of whom were girls.

AfD politician Nikolaos Boutakoglou revealed that nearly 40% of the recorded child marriages involved Syrian couples.

Foreign Affairs › Re: DHS Paid $495.6 M To Purchase Prison Offered To State Of Minnesota For $75 M by Kobojunkie:
laiperi:
The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) paid $495.6 million to purchase the shuttered Prairie Correctional Facility in Appleton, Minnesota, just one year after the private prison company CoreCivic offered to sell the exact same facility to the state of Minnesota for $75 million. NYTimes Holy cow!
Did CoreCivic attempt to sell it to the federal government at the same price? Or was the lower price only to the State?
CoreCivic offered to sell the Prairie Correctional Facility in Appleton, Minnesota, to the state of Minnesota for $75 million (including upgrades) in May 2025, before the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) / ICE purchased the facility for $495.6 million in August 2026.
All of the major reports merely tell us that back in 2025, CoreCivic offered to sell it to the state of Minnesota for 75 million dollars. They don't tell us how much CoreCivic offered to sell it to DHS when approached before it was eventually sold at $495 million. What happened between May 2025 and August 2026? 🥱🥱

Ibrahim1985:
1. I am already good and build, so there is not need to suggest me to do this or that. I am entitled to my opinions
2. We can agree to disagree. To some billionaires are genius, job creators and wealthy. To others, Billionaires are evil and wicked.
I don't agree! I'd rather believe that you are generally misinformed and conflating issues. A criminal is a criminal whether he is a poor man or a billionaire. SO, for you to try to make a case against billionaires in general simply because some of them might be in crime is a clear sign of ignorance. And that is what I am here to point out to you. 🥱🥱

Millionaires or billionaires do not owe you anything... your government does. So long as a billionaire or any regular person does not commit a crime, it is not your place to go trying to paint them all as wicked. The only reason anyone would do so is if the person is likely just jealous! 🥱🥱
Business › China’s $340B AI Bubble Has Popped — And The Charts Prove It by Kobojunkie(op): 1:00am On Oct 31
China’s AI stock bubble is popping, and the data is overwhelming. Since its peak in late June, China’s Star 50 AI stock index has declined 42%.

China’s tech sector, per the country’s CSI 300 index, is down 18%.

Both indices are drastically underperforming the benchmark decline of 1.5% for the Nasdaq 100 index over the same period.

Publicly traded stocks in China’s AI sector with mainland operations, as major constituents of these indices, are leading the declines

AI model developer MiniMax is one particularly egregious example. Its shares closed trading in Hong Kong on Thursday at 87% below their HK$1,330 high earlier this year.

Unisound, a Chinese AI speech technology and language model software company, has experienced a similar drawdown from its 2026 peak.

Combined market capitalization losses by 14 Chinese AI stocks are $340 billion below their 2026 highs.

Drawdowns were so bad that only three companies out of 14 had “good” enough performances to have declined less than 50%.

To ensure relevance to China’s publicly-traded AI sector, Protos limited its list to companies with substantial mainland China operations whose financials demonstrate a majority of revenue coming from AI models, AI software or AI computer chips.

A partner at Shanghai Zhuozhu Investment Management admitted to the carnage in Chinese AI stocks. “All bubbles inevitably burst,” they said. Lotus Asset Management’s Hong Hao warned that many mainland AI stock listings are being paused.

AI stocks are still roughly 40% of China’s stock market. Bank of America’s Alex Liu told Bloomberg, “Right now it’s actually hard to say who’s going to survive.”

Ibrahim1985:
➜Na this argument I like pass My point- it is easy for you to write because if you have not work for one where they make millions while workerd workers barely earn a living or earn groundnut, there is nothing you can do because someone can earn millions of dollars and one is earning a kobo. Some Nigerians and their love of heartless billionaires need to be study.
➜ Everyone knows Cheap labour is basically slavery in disguise
➜ and let me do not start talking about child labour that billionaire use to make their products.
➜ Unions exist because of greedy Billionaires in the first place. Unions members may not be perfect but they are effective, and efficient because they give workers the opportunities to fight back.
➜ So what billionaires do is to bribe unions leaders or send thugs to harrass workers who protest.
➜ They steal ideas, personally i do not have any ideas that a billionaire stole but i wish they could because i can sue with a good lawyers and win. Microsoft is an example
1. I have worked for small companies owned by non-millionaire and for big companies owned by billionaires. And I still don't see your point, assuming you even have one? 🥱🥱

2. Wrong! Not all cheap labor is slavery. Slavery is something entirely different and separate from this discussion. 🥱🥱

3. Child labor is illegal. Therefore, a billionaire using child labor is a criminal who should be arrested and prosecuted. Again, this is a completely different issue since not all billionaires employ child laborers. 🥱🥱

4. Some unions are equally greedy. So, again, arguing that unions are the ultimate solution is nonsensical. 🥱🥱

5. Oh wow... so unions are not the ultimate solution after all, yet you are so sure they are? OMGosh! 🥱🥱

6. I suggest you instead focus on building your ability to think critically because, the way you are going, even if ideas were stolen from you, you would probably not be able to know at all. 🥱🥱

➜Is that a God in your own wisdom? You are agreeing with me without knowing. Do you know how many innocent people that guy killed? Babies and children that were not even part of the crime. The pregnant and unborn kids.
➜ He killed them and gave the land to someone else. Is that not a genocide or ethnic cleansing?
➜ Imagine if a Christian did it to a village where they worship African gods? Won’t you call it genocide? Let’s just agree and stop debating. God was at some point a genocide and ethnic cleansing maniac.
1. Not trying to hold brief for the one whose comment you responded to, but give us an example of a deity or calamity that ever befell men while sparing those highlighted. I am not just curious to know what being you are here comparing YHWH of Israel to. 🥱🥱

2. Let's consult the meaning of the term you continue to misuse here, shall we?
Genocide is an international crime defined as specific acts committed with the intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnic, racial, or religious group.

Under the 1948 United Nations Genocide Convention, genocide involves committing any of five prohibited acts—such as killing, causing serious harm, inflicting destructive life conditions, preventing births, or forcibly transferring children—with the specific intent to destroy a protected group.
According to Biblical stories, the Canaanites who were killed were those caught in the war. The Canaanite race and families survived the war. What this means is that the condition for genocide as it stands today was not met even over 3000 years ago. Again and again, we are informed that the Israelites settled with and intermarried with the Canaanites and the other peoples whom you originally claimed were genocided. 🥱🥱

3. No, it would not be a genocide. Again, consult the UN-provided definition of what a genocide is. It would be a terrorist attack, but not a genocide. 🥱🥱

Ibrahim1985:
1 Billionaire pay taxes because it is not an option: just like everyone else. If they could avoid paying taxes, they will not pay taxes at all. Why do you think the Cayman Island is popular ?

2. Billionaire loves cheap labour and they abuse worker rights anyway possible. The only way they pay is to pay as little as possible and get as much work as possible. If not Unions in many countries, work rights will not exist. Many 3rd countries where workers have few rights are an example.

3. I stand corrected when I say Billionaire do not give shisho. If they give, it comes with serious terms and conditons. Many get rich by stealing people ideas , destroying small business or buying their competitors.
⁸
1. If we all could avoid paying taxes we all would, so what is your point? 🤔🤔

2. We all prefer cheap labor to expensive labor . And so many Unions in many countries would prefer to be paid for work that they do not do, so they aren't the good guys in this sense. Again, what is your point? 🤔🤔

3. If you think someone has stolen your idea or literally destroyed your business, you have the courts to fight them to ensure you get paid back for what is rightfully yours. 🤔🤔

As for the buying up of competitors, I am not sure why you think that is wrong. A person can only buy is someone is willing to sell. 🤔


My recommendation is that you stop having problems with those who have more than you do, and instead focus your energy on making your own money so you can then do with it as you would have done. 🤔🤔

Agreement? You didn't bother to read any of the books or do actual research. You simply did cut-and-paste of verses out of context and were somehow certain that GENOCIDE was the crime committed by YHWH of Israel. Now you pretend we agree? Based on what? 🥱🥱

Princeton, New Jersey
April 10, 1948

To Shepard Rifkin,
Executive Director,
American Friends of the Fighters for the Freedom of Israel

Dear Sir:

When a real and final catastrophe should befall us in Palestine the first responsible for it would be the British and the second responsible for it the Terrorist organizations build up from our own ranks.

I am not willing to see anybody associated with those misled and criminal people.

Sincerely yours,
Albert Einstein
Context is always necessary in these sorts of situations. 🤔🤔

You see, Einstein was not against Israelis, nor was he against self-determination or Zionism. He was instead against individual Israelis or groups forming terrorist gangs, like the people who now call themselves Palestinians(the Arabs who lived in Palestine were simply regarded as Arabs back in 1948) do.😒😒

The letter was not a warning about Israel.🥱🥱
