On point. As usual. The “democratic” 😂 West is so propagandized, we have become numb to REAL worldwide threats and danger. Appreciate You.

We're too stupid to survive.

Absolutely and -- the CONTINUITY of pathology...

Just watched "1971" -- overall message - CONTINUITY

1971 (2014 film) - Wikipedia

Arguably the most significant element in the stolen materials turned out to be a single file mentioning "COINTELPRO", a secret surveillance program that was run by J. Edgar Hoover. Subsequent investigations and freedom of information requests regarding COINTELPRO played a role in the 1975 Church Committee.

FBI and Edgar Hoover === CIA-FBI and Obama, Clapper, Brennan == SAME ugly dangerous bastards

I had nightmares all through the early Reagan years... My dream was waking up to a huge mushroom cloud exploding overhead because Reagan said something that day to piss off the "Evil Empire." Those old nightmares are returning. WTF are we building "new and improved" nuclear weaponry for? We need to dismantle the whole lot of them and carefully dispose of the radioactive bits. Give peace a chance! Thanks, Caitlin, for speaking out on this extremely important and timely subject.

Talk about a miscommunication, look at how many times your AI changes words for you, Put that input into your brain and let it swirl around a bit.

The L factor of the Drake Equation -- the mean length of time that a civilization can communicate -- poses the chilling question that perhaps all intelligent life in the universe self-destruct before being able to reach out. It's just possible our reptilian brains will reassert their evolutionary influence over us despite our Mona Lisas and I Want to Hold Your Hands.

Maybe being driven off cliffs by idiots isn't preventable after all, even though the thought of it still pisses me off.

Very powerful, especially with the embedded shows from the "past."

And where is Tulsi?? Her mantra used to be 'we have to stop this new cold war and arms race.' Now it's all culture war...

This 20-minute film by the director of the new DUNE seems like a metaphor for our situation.

Fantastic article. And 1000% true and urgent. We are indeed living on borrowed time. Even if increasing tensions were not a factor, we have what amounts to an increasingly complex high-speed planet- destruction system that could end everything in a heartbeat COMPLETELY BY ACCIDENT.

... meanwhile, the msm continues to build up the war narrative: China BAD, Russia BAD... fools.

Excuse me for not expressing this well.

After one dies, what is their interest in whether or not others live? Don't all things come to an end?

Perhaps nuclear war is the only thing that can save us from Climate Change?

Perhaps nuclear war is the only thing that can save us from over population?

So, let me ask,"who is us?"

Why are we humans so attached to the continuation of human life? I admit, I'd like to see humanity survive and realize some of the science fiction advancements I love to read, but then there's always the conflict, the angst, the winners and losers.

Each extinction event has led to a change in a different organization of life.

The great dying lead to the Dinosaurs.

Humans exist because the dinosaurs went extinct.

It seems that life became more intelligent after each extinction.

If the purpose of life is to expand through the universe, perhaps it requires humanity's intelligence but with less aggressiveness between each other? Maybe it is just time to "move on"?

Arthur C. Clark wrote "Childhood's End". Why would Earth's life require an alien species to guide it to the next evolutionary event?
