Listening/watching now & to further flesh out why individualism does not result in selfish outcomes in my view is because within it, it is in everybody’s ultimate ‘self-interest’ to protect the rights of others & to create a society that offers freedoms & opportunities for all.
People who take a shallow look at individualism fail to take scales of broadness & time into account. They hear ‘individualism’ & think it’s about ‘self-interest’ in the here & now, immediate gratification. They also don’t get that it is by necessity a celebration, a joy, a...
love of individuality, because how can one expect to be loved, how can on expect respect for their own individuality if they aren’t prepared to also let others be who they want to be? And to see others being that, reaching for their best potential as an individual is thrilling...
...for the individualist because it assures them that they can also aspire for the same.

Just my thoughts. ☺️

How many pieces of what was once labelled ‘misinformation’ are now going to be admitted as fact?🤔

I think I shall compile a thread & see if I get to keep adding to it.👇

I look upon #Assange as if he were my brother, better than my brother because he has sacrificed far more for me than my own brother ever would.

So, I will defend him like a sister would, a sister who’s been witness to his torture. This is real life not a story.

I will not apologise for my rage at anyone who plays games with that life. Thinks they heard some truths on the deep dark web, or someone ‘in the know’. Unless you have your own clearance level which would immediately make you suspect anyway, you really don’t have any evidence...
...for your smears because I’ve combed through every f’ing angle looking for that damning evidence & if there is one thing I do better in than anyone I’ve ever met & most people I’ve ever known, is to be able to dig through years and years of boring bullshit in order to find...

Interesting discussion on the @katewand & @NickHudsonCT Speakeasy about problems with conveying your stance to others effectively. I haven’t finished listening to the discussion but the problem I find is those I wish to wake up just don’t want to listen. Which goes back to the...
...mass formation theory because it’s like trying to talk to a sleepwalker, they just want to brush you aside as they’re totally immersed in their dream (or pleasant sense of belonging) & me and my data is just an irritant, an annoying buzz in their ear.

Haha & whilst speaking about the similarities between the covid & climate change narrative, the ‘4 horsemen’ are mentioned. Here was me suggesting similar back in July after listening to another interesting podcast:

I have to say I’ve been quite shocked to witness the illogical cowardice &/or the willingness to accept nonsensical propaganda by the large majority of Western civilisation this last year+.

Did you think death in a multitude of unpleasant ways didn’t exist before this?!
The billions pissed up against a wall, lives destroyed, societies weakened for THIS?! With your govts & ‘experts’ telling you that the fully jabbed are still dying from this virus but the jab works so well you’ll destroy other people’s lives if they choose not to take it? Are...
...you fucking kidding me?! Are you that fucking stupid?! Billions could have been spent to save children from starving, abuse, or to make life more bearable for those who spend years in pain or with disability & for those who care for them. There were a myriad of pre-existing...

Do you want a future with State & employer mandated:

- medical interventions
- utility/vehicle usage
- information access
- spending controls
- travel restrictions
- socialising rules
- exercise hours
- access zones
- dietary intake
- birth control?

This is what the vaccine passport is leading you towards. A digital ID & then fully trackable & traceable CBDCs (Central Bank Digital Currency) that can be switched on, turned off, be required to spend in only certain outlets, within a miles radius of your home, by the end of...
...the month, only on specified products & tailored to you & where you rank on the social credit system.

Your every action & transaction in real time can be traced directly to you, who you associate with, what your interests are, what you discuss
& even eventually what you...

FYI: Respecting the RIGHT to choose VS Respecting the choice.

Criticising a choice is fair play, stop with the bs ‘we must be respectful’ if someone gets the jab.

If you think a choice is unethical, stupid, dangerous, harmful to society you are not only free to criticise it...
....but potentially ethically obliged to do so. And that goes for both sides of the argument.
When a friend or acquaintance has made a choice we disagree with we will often choose to let the issue go at that point, that doesn’t mean we suddenly respect it, it means we have...
...accepted it and see no point in continuing our criticism. We might however not make this same choice to stop criticising when the person is a public figure. This is because we are still ethically obliged to keep attempting to educate the public about a practice we think is...
