Paragone

1. I'm claiming that it isn't category-logic that is valid, it is degree-in-a-spectrum logic that is valid.

Believing that only Good(tm) & Bad(tm) are the only possible-conditions is false-dichotomy, false-framing.

1 is openly-evil, the other .. is less evil, & works hard at hiding all the evil it does, from white eyes.

2. Israel holds it is Western, & treated as Western, in alignment, so it doesn't matter if someone holds that "because of what they do, therefore they aren't Western": their centrality in the US's military & international policy makes it Western in a functional sense.

3. Representative-republic ISN'T, & never was, democracy, & the electoral-college made the US 2-times-removed from democracy, not 1-times-removed, as a normal representative-republic was.

Trump-dictatorship just finishes converting it to an ideology-archy, is all.

It'll take 7-8y for Trump to personality-convert to not-even-understanding-how-any-other-could-be-valid DarkHexad personality,

& then another 7-8y cycle for that personality's dictatorship to BUTCHER the US of A, as the Confederate reverse-takeover enforces its race-+-religion totalitarianism.

He promised his followers they wouldn't have to vote anymore, & that is a promise I trust him to fulfil.

You identified very-few assassinations, but I linked to a whole damn table-listing of the US's assassinations..

IF that doesn't count, because you've already made-up your mind, that isn't Empiricism, that is ideology/prejudice/"religion"/programming/Kahneman1-mind, & I'm fine with that being your religion: it is many people's religion, & you've total constitutional right to your ideology/prejudice/religion/programming/Kahneman1-mind, as all Westerners do, it seems..

( the problem is wrong-granularity: Nazism can be called a "religion" & there's no logically-valid falsification of that.

Instead of guaranteeing the constitutional right to any ideology/prejudice/religion/programming/Kahneman1-mind, the right needs to be much more precise, DISallowing DarkHexad principles or embodiements from being any guaranteed-right.

But that would violate the current "entitlement" to evil as a religion, wouldn't it? )

Our view is whitewashed!

Holding that an acceptably-whitewashed view "proves" that our side isn't evil .. that hasn't upright-spine in it, you know?

Here is a book I invested-in years ago, in order to discover if there was ANY truth to the "my whole view is whitewashed" position, & I figured that if I could understand 1 section of the book's context rigorously-enough ( based on my knowledge of outside-evidence, stuff NOT in the book ), THEN I'd be able to judge whether the book was all conspiracist-delusion XOR whether it was proving that at-least a significant-percentage of what it was saying was .. proving my belief to be what was baseless..

https://www.amazon.com/Hidden-History-Conspiracies-Cover-Ups-American-ebook/dp/B01KEL9Z82/

The section I dug-into was the systematic-assassination of biology researchers..

From what I could tell, it checked-out.

I never read any more of that book, because it's too damn depressing.

So, when it takes mere-seconds to find, online, evidence of THOUSANDS of falsely-labelled EKIA "Enemy Killed In Action", as it was Obama's S.O.P. to simply label ALL who US bombing butchered "EKIA", ignoring their being just families who lived there..

then the "evil XOR not-evil" false-dichotomy grates on my blood with its false-framing.

No matter.

Perhaps you hold that the evil the US does to its own not-have populations doesn't count in G-D's eye, either..

Most whites don't..

In the 1st while of the BLM uprising there were 5 open lynchings in the Deep South, but .. of course, .. the police called all those hangings "suicide", same as in the old days..

( read the Black news, when such events are happening, to get one's eyes opened, I learned.. )

I'm insisting that ignoring/denying OUR side's evil can't fool or convince G-D itself, & that objectivity is how it sees all,

& any Continuum/Soul which holds that it is child-of-G-D .. that continuum NEEDS to get holding to G-D's standards, including objectivity.

Seeing what actually IS, you know?

shruggeth

I've linked to evidence, & provided correct reasoning, but nobody has ANY obligation to tolerate that there's ANY truth in either:

ideology/prejudice/religion/programming/Kahneman1-mind ( Kahneman's "Thinking Fast and Slow", THE most important book in all psychology, in the world, now

https://www.amazon.com/Thinking-Fast-Slow-Daniel-Kahneman-ebook/dp/B00555X8OA/ NONE of my links are "affiliate" links: read the sample, there, & invest-in-truth if you find something, anything, to be truth, if you want. You determine what you find to be true, obviously. )

all the imprint->reaction mind, no matter what it's labelled, has the right to ideologically reject both evidence & correct-reasoning.

WHEN one begins finding-out what's being hidden by one's own-side's propaganda, there is nothing more demoralizing, more depressing, even betraying-of-one's-belief.

Nothing.

But upright-ones require uprightness, & if "our side" has been warring against uprightness, then either we are accommodating it, XOR we are attacking it, for uprightness's sake.

Same with any cancer: accommodating it produces future-life-destruction, whereas fighting it, really digging-in, COSTS, but may save one's life, itself..

Ignore or dig-in, whichever you want.

I've provided enough examples-of-evidence, & no reader of this has any obligation to step outside of ideology & actually-consider evidence, let-alone keep-digging until even-more objective-view gets put in their gaze.

which is enough: Empiricists have all the convincing they need, & ideologues won't ever be convinced, anyways: that is The Great Filter which will extinguish nearly-all of this-world's population, this century's deathmatch.

Salut, Namaste, & Kaizen.

"Acute, short-lived reactions are often fairly benign, whereas chronic, unremitting courses carry a poor prognosis. Delayed, intermittent phenomena ("flashbacks") and LSD-precipitated functional disorders that usually respond to treatment appropriate for the non-psychedelic-precipitated illnesses they resemble, round out this temporal means of classification. The question of organic brain damage as well as permanent changes in personality, attitudes, and creativity in patients and normals who have repeatedly ingested psychedelic drugs is controversial, but tends to point to subtle or nonsignificant changes. Future areas for study of the psychedelics' pharmacological, psychological, and therapeutic effects are suggested. "

which is from this scientific paper: https://journals.lww.com/jonmd/citation/1984/10000/adverse_reactions_to_psychedelic_drugs__a_review.1.aspx

Claiming that flashbacks "is not evidence-based", as you claim, is pseudoscientific disinformation, according to that paper's abstract.

Case closed.

The only "touching of other EFI partitions" that they do that I know-of, is that every time there's a kernel-update, it updates GRUB, which requires a re-scan of all partitions, so it can get the bootable-systems listed in GRUB..

that doesn't mean Ubuntu isn't doing other things, it's only saying that that's all I've noticed it to do..

Tbh, I think that the US is done for, as a country, but it'll take years for the destruction to progress through its different phases..

Trump promised his followers they'll never have to vote again..

Quite the promise, isn't it?

Quite the threat, from the perspective of all who aren't his followers..

Canada, EU, Down Under, other Commonwealth countries, British Isles, etc..

Get out before 2031, as by then it'll be too-late, & everything-turning-to-hell will be going on..

IF some anti-Trump appears on the world-stage, decide if you want to be with them, & find some way of moving there..

The US Civil War Part2 should begin in 2032 or so ( it seems to be a 7-8y cycle for each stage? ), & it should run for 7-8y, until the US is completely-destroyed, roughly 2040.

Interesting insight!

I believe that anaesthetic is dependent on its interfering with mitochondria ( Nick Lane's Royal Institution talk, on yt, for that insight ),

so it'd be the same for all, from that angle .. but if there's a flaw in our neurology which makes anaesthetic not work as well..

thank you!

TTBOMK, it was simply recording how much local-anaesthetic was required, per patient, to get them OK with the work,

& there was a 10% consistently higher requirement among the redheads..

That's evidence, not theory.

Which is why I don't accept the article's idea.

( & I admire the elegance of the experiment, too : )

While I invite anyone to read the source-materials I've linked-to, & see the evidence, yourselves..

Kahneman1-mind, imprint->reaction mind, ideology/prejudice/"religion"/programming, pre-vetoes it all, as it isn't within-ideology "authorized", right?

Considered-reasoning is Kahneman2 mind ( he called it "system 2", without identifying, in its name, what the hell context the "system" was meant in, which is why I don't bother with his labels ), & it actually does dig into evidence, before deciding.

Nobody "owes" .. "me", or ANYbody, really, .. considering evidence, before deciding that they "don't need to" consider any more evidence, right?

It's normal, it's done all the time, authority's better than Empiricism anyday, & that's good-enough for "normal", right?

So, whichever side your religion is on, establishment-knows-what-validity-is XOR evidence-based-knowing, .. just go with that side's habit!

What could be the cost of getting that wrong??

( both short-term, on a specific issue, vs long-term, the habit of getting that wrong.. )

The evidence does check-out, though..

benJoseph was Essene,

brought-up very differently than what mainstream Jews would have been,

didn't marry in his teens,

did study/know Eastern stuff that simply had no business being known among conventional Jews,

did leave evidences galore in the later-recorded "New Testament",

did leave esoteric evidences in "Gospel of Mary",

& left record in the East, with exactly the same attitude & message he consistently displayed within the Roman Empire in that evidence..

& .. establishment disallows ALL of that, & more!

Decide where your integrity resides, & go with that!

WHEN a working-psychiatrist, who did research in psychiatry, tells me that LSD can be stored in bodyfat & released later,

I believe them before I believe you.

There's a category difference between "I heard it from someone" & being told by a specialist who works in that field, but obviously you contempt that..

Good for you.

Perhaps you consider Israel to be not part of the West?

https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01N7LQ2NR/

Or perhaps you consider the US to not be part of the West?

I've read that the CIA's "heart-attack gun", which shoots a frozen needle ( so it dissolves, leaving no "piece" to find ) of poison, explains a plague of heart-attacks among biomedical researchers, some years ago ( including those who refused to play any spook-games for anybody? either you're working with us or you die? )

NONE of our countries is "clean", is my point.

Some are more overtly evil, than others, is all..

Everything I write is "translated"..

Normal people usually have an innate-mind-language of either

• visual-cognition
• auditory-cognition
• kinesthetic-cognition

I think in abstract-shapes, & have to translate from abstract-forms into English, & it is .. frustrating & tiresome .. to accomplish this,

& it's required ALL the time.

Maybe someday I'll go read what the discussion was, to figure-out if I was having a bad day, that day, & try correcting it..

Sorry for my delay in knowing-about your reply..

( I sometimes don't go online for years at a time, to comment )

Yes, adding color increases legibility, outright..

Texture ( for the colorblind ) helps, too, but is much less effective than color, for we who can see it.

Please, though, please try doing some charcoals-in-toothy-paper stuff, & feel the RMind-shift much more easily..

Salut, Namaste, & Kaizen!

All I'd read about it was in the human-factors-in-aviation-incidents domain:

An avionic was providing them with false-information, or it was mis-guiding their aircraft, whatever,

& they trusted the erroneous machine,

were ordered to get out from Russian/Soviet airspace,

kept trusting their machine, which indicated it wasn't violating that airspace,

& got shot-down.

KAL looks like Korean, right?

I think that was the one.
