  • I recently asked a friend of mine something similar and i will add it here for the sake of discussion.

    We need to fulfill our basic needs in order to be happy and content with life. There are 3 basic/main categories:

    1: bodily needs: better diet, exercise etc.

    2: mental needs: intellectual conversation/pondering, reading/writing a book, even playing some video games etc.

    3: spiritual needs: religion/hope for a better time and better place

    I would also add one more,

    4: social needs: spending time with friends and family, doing something for the community, relationships and dating etc.

    Since my friend and I are religious, 3 makes sense on its own. But you might need to think about what it means to you. Imo the most important part is having hope.

    Personally for me, its 1 and 4 that i struggle the most with. And in the end, its okay to be wrong and try different things and formulas to find what works best for you.

    Don’t be afraid to make mistakes! You live and you learn!



  • Thats actually a tool of genocide. The whole point of creating the gas chambers was to create an efficient genocide machine. The guards who took the prisoners to the chambers were different from guards who took the bodies. The guards who interacted with the prisoners weren’t allowed to decide who got to live and who did not.

    All in all, the chambers gave the guards a sense of “we are just following orders” feeling thus lessening their guilt. Because no matter how cruel it is, the humans will feel guilt.

    The calling for evacuation is also a similar tool to lessen the guilt of the soldiers. Afterall, those people who died were told to evacuate therefore their death is on their hands.


  • I think germany is still in denial, i think part of the reason why germany is so opposed to even acknowledge palestinian genocide is because, to acknowledge it, is to acknowledge that the “israel solution” was inadequate.

    On its core, the rise of hitler and persecution of jews were a result of racism. The economy fell and people started to blame the jews, it could just as easily have been another minority group.

    You can actually see a similar behaviour in modern day germany, The economy went downhill because of a series of bad decisions before covid (over reliance on russian oil, closing all nuclear plants etc.) And the german population started to align themselves with neo nazi (like AfD), as evident from the last election. Neo-nazism now blames immigrants for all the german troubles.

    Clearly whatever steps Germany (and the west in general) took, including the creation of israel, were not enough.

    Feel free to correct me if i am wrong about anything.


  • The belford declaration was signed for 3 reasons:

    1. the christians at the time thought that by sending jews to the holy land will bring forth their messiah and the world will end.

    2. europe (including britain) had a lot of anti-semites, and the creation of israel meant that there would be less jews in europe.

    3. britain wanted a buffer state/intermediate state between themselves and india so they can influence and subjugate those regions more effectively.

    The only jew in the british parliament opposed both the declaration and herzl’s idea of zionism. In fact jewish community themselves opposed zionism but then hitler came to power which caused many jews to change their opinions.







  • But you know for the olympics, the government really needed the extra surveillance cameras after all wouldn’t you want everyone to be safe? And who hates the sports? I mean we all love them and its good for us and it’s good for the economy as well. And it will put our country on the world map, and there will be so many tourists, after all we love tourists and diversity, wouldn’t that be nice?

    And just imagine oh imagine if one of the terrorists got here pretending to be a tourist, and ruin everything. You wouldn’t want them to ruin all the fun? Would you?

    So you see the government really really needs to tighten the security by adding these surveillance cameras, and rest assured it will use all the latest technologies to help YOU be SAFE. /s


  • That’s good marketing. OpenAI recently went for profit on steroids. They are increasing chatgpt plus price, they backed out of providing free credits to startups, they also made it so Sam Altman would have full control over the company (basically non-profit board is no longer involved).

    Not to mention sama first made outrageous claims about how he needs a crazy amount of energy for AI training and now that MS and other governments are starting to fulfill those requirements, he is changing the goal post to even more outrageous claims. Like literally he said if the world does not do this, there will be wars fought over AI in the future and only rich people will have access to AI.
