You only think that because you're currently a (slim) majority in your own homeland.
No, I think that because I don't care about being "the majority," and I don't care whether other white people want to have children with black/hispanic/asian people. Good for them, none of my business. Certainly not the end of the world, as you seem to be suggesting. The oligarchy would march on just fine.

Huh? The poor definitely do suffer in the US, and "poor" is actively being re-defined today as corporate profiteering even on essential goods is out of control.
And that's part of it. The targeted group is harmed doubly by devaluation of the currency via inflation, while simultaneously being denied the same 'government assistance' that other groups in the same position receive. This furthers the oppression of that group.

And that is where you lose any credibility. You don't care about becoming a hated minority in your own homeland, where Persecution (stage 8) and Extermination (stage 9) will kick off as soon as that point is reached. You have been fully demoralized, which is an ongoing part of any genocide.

Remember that global population is at about 8,000,000,000, and White Europeans worldwide number only about 750,000,000 (roughly 10 percent). If that isn't a minority, then what is?

Ah, that is interesting. Do you mind me asking about your profile pic. It seems to have significant symbolism?
Gaming and music related more than anything religious. It's custom art of Zero from Mega Man X and onward, which forms an 'X' to represent Xzi. A handle which itself was derived by combining X and Zero's names. I believe there's a pro Overwatch player that uses the same handle, but I can guarantee I used it online first, dating back to at least Warcraft 3. :P

Anyway, the eye just fit nicely into the picture, it's art from Tool's 10,000 days album. Not my absolute favorite of theirs, but still very influential.

Yes, to a point. But eventually you will have to engage with superstition, especially in time of hypepolarisation.
Waste of time to entertain fiction born of ignorance.

What I was trying to say is that american capitalisim is highly personal. Perhaps because capatilism gives this veneer of an open market. You can easily point at actors like black rock and the many entities attached like black stone, black cube etc. The 'poor' is a totally abstract conception, it is important to look at real people.
The name of a corporation is not personal. The name of a CEO, slightly more so, but if you point the finger at him, he'll just point the finger at someone else. Capitalism exists as a buffer between the working class and their overlords, to keep things as abstract and impersonal as possible.

Very interesting. Thank you very much!

I see. There is a snake around the eye. It's very interesting to me, but it's not your creation.

I dont know. The Muslim population of the world is estimated at around 1.8 billion followers. You will have to deal with them somehow, and referencing facts won't help. And muslims are only one of the many cults.

He (Larry Fink) will, the fact is the symbolism and personal is jewish.

That's nonsense. I'd probably be granted SNAP if I applied for it, and I'm currently living in a house valued at over a million dollars (not my own of course). The overall shrinking of such social safety nets can be attributed to the lack of tax dollars collected from corporations and the extremely wealthy.

And that is where you lose any credibility. You don't care about becoming a hated minority in your own homeland, where Persecution (stage 8) and Extermination (stage 9) will kick off as soon as that point is reached. You have been fully demoralized, which is an ongoing part of any genocide.
Who said anything about being hated? You think just because white people have historically been dicks to everybody when in charge, a more representative group of leaders is guaranteed to be dicks to white people when in charge? That's both a sad mentality to live with and not at all aligned with reality.

Yeah I just combined the two images and added a background color. Previous to 10,000 days the Tool eye had flames enveloping it, so it could be interpreted that way or even as spikes.

Guessing they were going for a depiction of an angel with this one.

Ah, flames. That is interesting as well. Moses carries a Snake and Jahve appears to him as a buring bush.

Maybe I will take closer look at their work. They know their symbols for sure.

So from my observation the higher ups of the so called 'liberal international order' are dones with Biden. They fear another round of chaos agent Trump causing even more accelerationism. They want a sleeping aid like Ron DeSantis, to taim hyperpolarisation.

He won against evil Donald Trump. He prevented a pandamic to decimate the american population. He is very tactfully handling the situation in Ukraine. Which US-President has managed so many obsticales of this grand scale?
Lincoln has probably taken that. Seeing he kind of made it so we have a country today.
