Forgive me, I'm too dumb to understand you anymore. Help!!! I need your education.

This is going to hit you in the face many years from now =). Wait nvm, I'm just delusional.

Deltron_0  ·  2684 days ago  ·  link  ·    ·  parent  ·  post: Prince quote

internet chat rooms personify psychological projection. For all that I've had dished out to me in light of my opinions, and especially considering the individuals in real life I have spoken with concerning this place... Hubski is no different.

The constant is the same, prevailing dominance in external measures through formulating internal opinions.

Go ahead, tell me to take meds (directed at all of hubskii not just you flagamuffin). Years from now I will peacefully, and respectfully reveal my personal opinions of the social interactions here - though a lot more people than you think have paid attention to this place.

For the record, Prince as a person, is a genuine man. His music isn't part of my routine auditory journeys.

ps. in mid-september I went off right after the NY bombings in a sort of paranoia. Like I said, there are a lot more people watching this place than you all think.

There's a lot more to this world than what you think. Keep sharing what you think, but remember that knowledge speaks, but wisdom listens.

Wisdom doesn't just run on what you think, and observations are different than thoughtful projections. Behind a screen, this is nearly impossible to identify.

for the record: you look up the people running the economist and ask yourself again, "how did I come upon this information."

Fuck you, man.

Deltron_0  ·  2686 days ago  ·  link  ·    ·  parent  ·  post: DEA pays TSA employees to spy

you're totally right - I'm speaking of the entire scope of media and it's strength relative to the position it held as it was represented hundreds of years ago in the constitution. I'm interpreting the trends, not extrapolating my opinion off of media sources. Thanks for your feedback. I'm clearly not going to entertain the idea of sharing more of what I think with you.

keep it simple: make it fun. It's all how you look at it, dude.

'I wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!' =D =D =D

I understand your point, though - but I see a reality where prayer can be given for thanking past events. Look at how athletes give thanks to god for their performance under the limelight, for example..

    This has nothing to do with the media.

how did you come upon this information?

If you can't explain something simply, you don't understand it well enough. The constitution was meant to be a living document, I know friends who interpret the constitution much differently than I do. Media has balkanized everyone, and the risk media presents today is far greater than this unconstitutional behavior by the U.S. government. I'm defending the law only so far as it is intended, and while fundamental amendments are actively denounced by the media, I attack them on the grounds that their covering is not credible as a source of news. I am a conspiracy theorist, after all.

People, like it or not, are far more co-dependent upon technology today than they are upon their government. Look at the popular topics present in culture, and the way they are transferred. Centralized hubs for propagating information are becoming synonymous with legislation. Conversation is now dependent upon infrastructure solely propped up by individuals and their (often hidden) agendas. I wish KB didn't have me blocked now. I know he has a lot of experience with cloud-based social archetypes.

The position of the government today in comparison to the sphere of influence media has is the lesser of two evils (imo). The bias today in media has promoted a rupturing within society down to the fundamental values of our country. I'm not dogging the 1st amendment. But looking at the constitution as a living document, the freedom of speech is being circumvented by the snowballing of media-tech. On paper it is revolutionary, but look at the degree of social engagement today. I've met a lot of socially hyperactive persons, who have zero concept of a reality outside of the spheres they chose to follow in the cloud.... stagnation in my humble opinion. (and something something, space is the answer).

If you don't have anything to hide then I'd say, theoretically, you should feel safer. Personally having tracked my own metrics correlating to large-media centers of projection - seeing the stark contrast in what they are covering now compared to a month ago... I feel much less safe, to say the least.

the divisiveness of media is going to bring ruin to the people before any breaches of constitutional rights. The pen is much mightier than the sword. The media is not run by the people. It is run by individuals who must propagate, elevate, and harness a position that ensures their growth. They, despite all their spin over the facts, and how they justify their position through viewership, are not fair or balanced whatsoever.

mark my words.

Here's a fantastic TED-radio hour conversation that just came out looking into mental health. You might relate to parts of it regarding your family. I know I did.

Deltron_0  ·  2690 days ago  ·  link  ·    ·  parent  ·  post: “If you’re a person of prayer, we could use your prayers,”

    a solemn request for help or expression of thanks addressed to God or an object of worship.

key words: object of worship.

Object's are different than 'someone.'

I wasn't thinking of right or wrong until you shared your thoughts. But now I see it as right or wrong. I think I'm right.

this creates clicks - on a far more intellectually engaging level than most other social formats. Just don't challenge the status quo or you'll be demeaned.

I think I need some coffee and a day to think about this one. This is thought provoking!!

Maybe you should learn Persian? The whirling dervish state of mind might appreciate some transferring of value ;)

One thing people, especially those practiced in translating and mediating value, will not tell you, is their bias directly influenced how they receive the information. ESPECIALLY in faith. This has happened throughout history. The best thing you can do is (I can't believe I am saying this of all people, get ready for the rage-quotes), look at the data, who (or what) is presenting the data, with an open mind, without over-exposing your position internally or externally. Ok enough crazy talk. I enjoyed what you shared though

Deltron_0  ·  2694 days ago  ·  link  ·    ·  parent  ·  post: Another Clinton-Trump divide: High-output America vs low-output America

this has to be one of the most idiotic assumption's i've seen kb make ever. He won't read this (blocked me)...but for heaven's sake. NO SHIT THE PEOPLE CHURNING LESS OF THE NUMBERS VOTED FOR TRUMP. Fuck man, the last eight years has seen a dramatic income inequality gap increase, and the middle class erode. Any dingus who reads a history book knows how that game ends up. KB, for all you love dear, pray I don't figure out who you are in RL, because I would bitch slap you. (EDIT: see below)

This country, as it is structured, DOES NOT FUNCTION WITHOUT A POWERFUL MIDDLE CLASS. Next thing he'll start preaching is how the electoral college isn't a fair representation of our country... *facepalm.

edit: this is spin, a lot of spin. I'm empowered for calling this whole thing and i'm going on a better path in RL. I'm sober while righting this, and about to go to work so that's good too.

edit 2.0: since it seems a growing number of persons are blocking me I can only revise my IRL statement: KB, if I met you in real life today, I would want to slap you. Why? Mostly because I can tell you haven't lived a very dynamic life, despite all you can say.

Messsage intended for 'iamyourownreshmore', who has also blocked me:

you right,

I apologize and re-edited my statement. Just know I am not backing away from the essence of what I want to share. The internet grew dramatically in its infancy as a utility for people to share their voice, especially in anonymity. You could be whoever you wanted behind an alias. Just know that there is nothing I wouldn't share here that I would not share in real life.

I have a position that is not considered because it is not backed by factual evidence, and is heavily dependent upon speculation and subjective to the individual's sense of value. Kb does not convey this, despite his eloquence and fact-checking method of valuing everything. There is more moving in this country behind the curtains than any of these people (especially KB) will ever see. But they, along with many here, will give their opinion. That is totally fine, but when I am continuously blocked, it hurts. I bring it upon myself, I know. Every message I get is one I appreciate, that I may learn to improve my message. Thank you for at least commenting on my reply.

Prayer doesn't necessarily HAVE to imply a religious connotation.... though I'm sure enough academics here would tell me I'm wrong if I didn't already acknowledge them here.

The golden rule abounds! There's an interesting story behind the essence of the rule and the role of money, on a different note.

Sending good vibes to Tennessee!

What confounds me is.... looking at the global population, what are we doing squabbling over ourselves STILL about this topic? The only universally accepted answer to this that I can fathom is through expanding to other planets and objects within our Solar System. Or am I wrong?

Deltron_0  ·  2695 days ago  ·  link  ·    ·  parent  ·  post: The Areas America Could Abandon First

    Without increasing levels of federal spending, climate change could push parts of them out of existence.

Since when does the federal government own the responsibility of climate change? I thought Team America: World Police was in charge of the world.

Some people never get over themselves. This is sad.

One of these days i'm going to get hammered hard in rl. Till then i'll just blab away online. Anyone see this move falling outside of the spin on the market dictating their decision?

Sorry, this comment is private.
Sorry, this comment is private.

this is where my conspiracy theorist bullshit card is played.

Looking at corruption and injustice through the lense of the media today is not accurate.

    with a historically low amount of corruption and injustice

do you have a source?

Yeah I'm pretty sure that's what news IS today. The intent for news is to inform... but anyone with some interest in following the money behind these organizations today would be quite lame not to consider the effect media bias has on what is covered and how it is covered.
