DeepSight:Trump is dropping the suit in order not to have any judicial oversight. The judge was going to drop the hammer. The dismissal of this suit allows him to negotiate with his own DOJ to attempt to steal 1.7 Billion dollars for some nonsense fund. This is pure outright corruption that we wouldn't even see in Nigeria let alone the US. There is nothing altruistic about this move. |

Trump is dropping the suit because there is a racketeering investigation going on in Florida. The leak was part of a coordinated lawfare campaign against him. It shields IRS from the Florida investigation but doesn't shield the individuals responsible $1,776 B is symbolic IjeBos: |

basilico:The suit was dropped because the judge was going to say it was unconstitutional, which it was, as Trump would be basically directing the DOJ to pay himself. So, Trump settled out of court for 1.7 Billion dollars which was just announced. All your other conspiracy nonsense is just that, nonesense. Any, I'm going to block you again. Most of your posts are brain numbingly illiterate like this one. It's pollution of my mind. |

We don’t have money for healthcare. Funding children’s cancer research is wasteful according to DOGE. But we have money to pay Jan 6 criminals. |

cococandy:You make noise too much for things you don't know. This is why I wonder if you are in the US. If you want to talk about this country, you got to buy a flight ticket first. That said, US does not have a no money for healthcare problem. It is healthcare efficiency problem. We (us living in the US) spent about $5.3 trillion on healthcare in 2024. around $15,474 per head, and 18% of GDP, so sayong the problem is simply lack of funding is Aba way of thinking. don’t act like children’s cancer research is being starved because America lacks money. The same government wastes billions through fraud, bad grants, bloated administration, and politically motivated spending. Fix the waste first before screaming more money every time. And yes, money stolen through fraud schemes, whether by somali fraudsters, politically connected contractors, or fake nonprofits, should be recovered and redirected to real priorities like healthcare and cancer research. The problem is not how much government spends; it is who receives the money and whether it actually helps people. |

DeepSight:As my responses always are ![]() DeepSight:I gave you the benefit of the doubt, but given it persists, perhaps naive me should not have. My main thrust is the civilisational levels arising from different cultural milieux - not race, ethnicity or colour. I don't actually believe in those things as markers in any meaningful way. Or a basis for explaining anything that is not peripheral at best. I understand that some ideologies, worldviews or belief systems may make a thing of them, but mine does not, and I don't. I consider use of terms such as "white people" to be strawmanning. DeepSight:Of course, to a degree. Just as long distance runners will develop differently to weight-lifters. But the differences will be peripheral in a sense, as at core they remain built of the same stuff. Culturally, it's can be different to several orders magnitude - not due to colour or ethnicity. DeepSight:Some may try and fuse the two. But it fall's apart when you factor in the the Biblical narrative regards sin and death. Hopefully God is just after faith in Christ and this can be a 2nd order matter - although it can damage the underpinnings of faith. But we digress. DeepSight:My take on the role of climate differs from yours - whatever climatic, or other hinderances men faced, they should serve as spurs for development, hurdles to scale, not reasons for failing to develop. DeepSight:As noted, I see this as strawmanning, I don't see it as the development of different races, more the outworking of different cultural milieux. Including historical events and experiences, tradition, custom, religion, mythology, and all the other things that feed into a people' or nations culture and consciousness. DeepSight:On the way to where. One of the underpinning assertions of your thesis is that all roads lead to development. On what basis? Indeed, you reference to historical eras and empires cuts both ways, as firstly, they all crumbled eventually and secondly, there would have been many we don't know of, or refer to, that were never able to establish themselves as nations or independent people groups. The bible says "if you say you see and say you have no sin, then your sin remains". Now that all nations can "see" what development looks like, there are no excuses. What the laggard nations have repeatedly shown is that they don't have the will or the wherewithal to outwork their antecedents. They always revert to type. DeepSight:What I expect is that they will revert to what is inherent. Newly independant nations have navigated their way to success. A plan can be forged, a pathway determined, a blueprint drawn up. I admit that, ethnic and sectarian differences, literacy levels and other things can all serve to hinder, but if the will and vision (and pre-cursor civilisational levels) are there it will come to pass. Even if it's a long road. DeepSight:It doesn't matter, it's the cultural and consciousness response - regardless of the events, which may well be similar. DeepSight:You continue to make the case against your own hypothesis? Notions of individual freedoms, rights, liberties and association, merit, based hierarchies, patriotism, a sense of commonwealth, strong institutions and the rule of law to which all are equally subject cannot arise sustainably and at scale from the majority, if not all, of cultural milieux that exist in Africa, not just BA. DeepSight:Answered this above. And please note, wars, strife and conflict are not necessarily drivers for advance or development. DeepSight:Screams paucity. DeepSight:Or an African looking people group could have. They could also have been favoured as human sacrifices by the other locals ![]() DeepSight:I'm a creationist. I believe all mankind originated from Adam via Noah. Probably somewhere Africa'ish, but to me it's a moot point. DeepSight:Doesn't follow that ultimately a fully functioning nation will evolve. Time and chance happen to all men. Because all go to school, doesn't mean all will graduate or advance to higher education, or take masters or doctorate degrees. DeepSight:But yet at least one other natoion has cut and paste rapid development. Thus falsifying your arguement. DeepSight:The old "billions and billions" . Apart the fact that "democracy" is not the only way to govern or run societies, neither is it the only way to do so successfully., even if it's the best? It doesn't mean that it is the obligatory outcome for every people group or nation. Kraal life baybay . Do the feudal Fula look like they will ever take to democracy? Or not corrupt it beyond recognition. Perhaps you see the Somali with VAWA legislation and full LGBTQ&^%$£ representation . Oga, get use to my term "inherency", you can't escape it. Those tribes travelled to where they are culturally over millenia, and that path is not the way to the enlightenment or modernity your describe. What you portray is somewhere between a hard cope and a fantasy.DeepSight:But boko is haram ? They are killing and willing to be killed for that. But oh yeah, but after billions and billions... ![]() Let's be honest, where there has been development and advance, it has been foisted upon! And as certain parts of the world continue to progress technologically, some things will travel just because. Afterall, mobile phones made it to Africa, as have a host of other gadgets But you can have modern appurtenances in a backward society. There will always be flows now e have conquered climate, distance and to a degree time. But what makes a people place high on the civilisational hierarchy is "inhenrency" There will always be civilisation, it's just to what degree. To form and sustainably maintain a modern western style democracy or something that closely mimics it, especially at scale, requires a certain cultural milieu, or FD as you would say . Only a few nations\peoples have acquired it. So whether it is foisted upon those that don't, they attempt to imitate it or, they move in large numbers to a ready made one, it cannot hold,Let me leave you with this, Jeremiah 17:9 - “The heart is deceitful above all things, And desperately wicked; Who can know it?

The President of the party of the people (Raudmeuter) arguing that reparations are bad for descendents of slaves, just forced the DOJ to pay reparations to mostly white Republicans who committed insurrection and broke the law while storming the Capital to stop an election. Make any of it make sense. |

IjeBos:Reparation is not a solution to your joblessness and being perpetually broke Your demand for Reparation is based on what? |

raumdeuter:I know reading comprehension isn't ur forte. But read the post 10x till you get it. Point out where in the post I made a case for reparations? My point is your party who is opposed to the reparations just gave reparations to criminals. Who has a greater case for reparations, J6 criminals who went to court or descendants of slaves? How many posts have you written here against the 1.7 billion dollar fund? Or are you only opposed when it's descendants of slavery asking for reparations? |

raumdeuter:Of course, you don't want to chime in on the rank hypocrisy and criminality of your cult leaders 1.776 billion graft fund. Slave descendants: We should get reparations Raumdetuer: Why do you deserve it? Mostly white J6 insurrection criminals: We deserve reparations. And dear Leader sets up a fund Raumdeuter: <<crickets... suddenly deaf dumb and blind. >> |
