Do you personally like Drake, Katseye? And think they make good music?

I would assume that they don't care about the unmasking, because the whole thing is a just a misleading show, intended to misdirect you from the reality. I don't know the reality, but perhaps if the USG was behind the creation of

Always with the increasing government control. Heaven forbid people go online without training wheels. We need safety nets everywhere - a grazed knee means the state failed.

No video of earth either, just a very promoted new image (taken on old cameras). And then the conversation is about the amazing emotions they feel. And all four of them are just chatting, no need for anyone to be monitoring anything.

Corporations + government = fascism. Fascism is the reality. And its global. Global fascism is what is already the case.

I think the reason is because he was trying illustrate that you can say an awful lot (in analogical language) about things that are not empirically observable.

> It has an unforgettable first line: "All we hear from Berlin is the music of marrow bones and cleavers," and is similarly vivid throughout. A nice example of the power of media to bring something to life in the reader.

Oh, if unelected officials is the standard, that's fine then. Move along.

No, not the WHO, pharmaceutical companies or Bill Gates. These folk only have humanity's interests at heart, nothing to do with money and power. At all. You should absolutely trust your children to these folks.

Everyone is meddling all the time. Having corporations in the role of 'bad cop', allows the illusion that the government is 'good cop', and that they can manage reality for the greater good. However, the only entity that

The problem is a framed as a question of protection (who doesn't want to be protected?) with the intended effect of over-reach (spying). The coordinated track that governments around the world are on (sponsored by corporations), is tha

Have you made any policy changes? Do you know someone who has?

by verisimi 7mo ago
The actual answer as to how much you influence policy is: none at all. The European commission proposes laws. European commissioners are proposed through existing EU institutions. They are not voted in. You vote for MEPs, who discuss laws

I agree, and thank you for your comment. However, I don't think the medical establishment will necessarily help. Or looking outside generally - this will probably only compound or defer the problem. You will have to deal with it your

It's almost as if there is a global plan to deanonymise everyone online, and for governments and corporations to have total awareness and control of everyone's actions.

Thanks for your thoughts. You would round up 99k to 100k (fair, imo) but don't round down 80.5k to 80k? I guess this is just one of those things...
118.
by verisimi 7mo ago
I get it, I know how rounding works. I mean, its basically 100k - why not just say that? That would be justifiable too, right? What would you have done, in those circumstances though? Would you 'round up', overstating your case

> 80,508 people Not 81,000 as it says in the title. I know I'm being nitpicky, but I wouldn't round up to 81k. Surely the 'important number' in this case is 80, so you would round down to that. Then let the reader

They'll find whatever they need to find (or not find) just as we do. Its simply an impossible exercise to go back in time, carrying all of our assumptions about modern life and what we have been taught about the 'Ancient world&#x
