Nah. To say Beyonce, Mick Jagger, Harrison Ford, Robert Downey Jr and many of their calibre have less genuine talent than buskers is just your ideological agenda blinding you.
Exactly. But it also depends on target audience hey. Like Republicans have a big religious base, their celebrities are religious people, which ends up with Evaangelicals praying over Trump. So the Dems and the Reps are just two peas on opposite ends of the pod.
Media companies banning or restricting people from saying things that go against their values isn't a threat to free speech. Neither is protesting against people. Just counter protest or start your own platform. People can still host their own websites or go to alternative platforms that...
I think Americans are like that in general. They think hollywood is Mt Olympus. That is why a lot of Americans go on shows like Idols. They too want to become demigods and worshipped. So then it is actually a good marketing tactic for Dems to get support from celebs because people look up to...
On top of this factual news is manipulated, with snippets extracted and selective facts, and the most devestating part is how people interpret facts to suit their agendas. Social media is now just a propoganda war.
IMO, its best to trust our own experience and read dense books on topics from...
I might not agree with her politics, but I grew up watching Roseanne and it was hilarious. Much like entertainers like Undertaker and Kane, i like their characters on screen, which for some reason made me think they were cool people, but now after their support of Trump and weird cringe actions...
I think shared experience like ours proves the validity of certain experiences. For instance, our shared experience with qi, which I thought was nonsense previously, has validity because I too feel like there is an electro magnetic element to it. And it is very very subtle. One has to create a...
Also, don't forget his idea of Helter Skelter, which was his version of the apocalypse inspired by the book of Revelation. End times scenarios are what cults use to stress urgency on their followers to make the fear. It is the first aspect of FOG, which means Fear, Obligation and Guilt. Cult...
He would fall under "cult of personality" much like Hitler, Mussolini and.... ahem.... another popular politician of today who has a movement that rhymes with "mama". These types of people are the backbones of cults.
It was a categorisation by cult expert Steve Hassan. This model and his book helped me to deal with the mental and emotional fallout when I left Jehovah's Witnesses by helping me put into words what I felt was wrong when in the group.
I support the ideal of your first paragraph but i don't think the people has the power to force anything short of staging a coup.
Agree mostly with your second paragraph. The power structure is what should be toppled. In my country it is mostly race based. In europe it isnt race based. Formerly...
Yes they do confuse socialism with communism. Also they don't like the population getting free anything because they consider it stealing. So they are against the principles of socialism too.
I agree that socialism doesn't support dictatorship. Rizzo supports dictatorships thats a contradiction...
This makes sense. What has been shown in the past few years is that extremes breed opposite extremes. That is why politics gets more and more polarising. Extreme capitalism might cause an economic revolution. Already the extremes are showing the true intentions of the tribes because they become...
I have never heard of or seen MAGA members who love socialism. What socialist policies does MAGA even care about? And also note what socialist policies they are against.

Well Rizzo loves dictatorships it seems. And is dictatorship even a socialism trait? I know it is a state capitalist...
