well hiring smart people while not having basic smartness will eventually lead to demise no matter how much of a high IQ individual you hire as there will be some aspects which will slip up and when it does it will come crashing down hard, with the age of the internet you could be attacked by anyone across the globe if they see a opportunity to make money, no empire stays for long no matter how much human arrogance is displayed sadly its also true for good forces which also falls apart, its a cycle of good and bad forces and one overpowering the other at some point

@fun_ghoul Well people are even questioning whether there will even be a history with these conflicts going around created by the rich

@mackone8035 Americans love to claim how JFK was innocent and got killed for the wrong reasons like please his family was one of the most influential powers around in the US government especially when the main objective of the US had never changed throughout history, especially when it comes to corporate interests,even if Kennedy was shot for going against the elite the policies regarding the Global South never changed like with Nicaragua which there were still US influence continuing or with Korean war too

@phoenixtoash2396 i mean you think that they wouldn't drag along the common people with their problems? It's obvious they aren't going to go cold into the night

Well that's the issue, think of those times during slavery and when the average citizen was indifferent towards those slaves and just thought of them as lowlifes and untouchables but there were some who did want to help them but were powerless as it was the culture to consider slaves as lowlifes, good people feel the same way towards the poor and while there are some who do want to help and they are powerless to do so, the worlds more about survival and nothing else, people rather look after themselves first than others and not all people are like this, even from a personal experience there are people who do feed the poor and try when they get the opportunity to help them, the worlds about survival and just like in the wild where you will get eaten by predators or starve if you don't go after food our world is kind of similar when it comes to resources and yes even if there are people who do help the poor at some point it's unlikely they will sacrifice their own well being, the rich are in the fact that they are superior and have more than what they have and if an average person had the same wealth at least the good person they will surely help those around who are poor or help them provide jobs and other things necessary, it's not about superiority complex as you claim at least for many good folks as even rich people some will help but not enough as to let go of their luxuries or end up in the middle class, some rich do help in the sense they live in the same way middle class do but keep that wealth for their offspring instead of spending it but it's different for those rich who have everything at their disposal yet don't help and only seek after more and live in that old century mentality like almost religious thinking that their way of life should stay the same, that is evil no matter how much you put it here, the materialistic desire for more instead of using it sufficiently and smartly is killing the rich and in their stupidity they are costing the lives of others to achieve that want, there are all sides of good and evil doesn't matter but claiming they are not evil is just a fallacy especially when they have that potential but they rather live in their egoism and arrogance as to further themselves as superior

Yeah sure him attempting a coup on Venezuela and destabilizing Syria and threatening other middle Eastern countries like Iran sounds moral I guess

I mean there comes a point for a white person who let's just say never seen the harshness of slavery towards the lesser people to have sympathy at first but due to culture mentality and seeing that superiority they get from those lesser is what corrupts them and some grow indifferent due to the powerlessness or even them falling under the bus or in poverty if they fought against the system which continues this slavery, so it's much more complicated here than you think, i say it's similar to graphic and gore content which many feel disgust and want to help the suffering of those but are powerless and with time feel indifferent

Well race only matters as long it is convenient for people and you get money but otherwise those who are poor regardless of race suffer

@jjk2one there are no good presidents in the US regime, it's just facts here especially when JFK although he withdrew from the Vietnam war still supported other coups in South America and against Cuba specifically cause it refuses to bow down to western hegemony

Well look at this way he basically had a kid at a younger age and never got to live his childhood and life the way other kids his age ever did with witnessing trauma from the Iraqi war leaked documents in the internet, learnt about the harsh truths of the world which would weaken any sane person and already declared a public enemy of the state with the only crime with questioning the society and country he's living in, despite what his past is later on with sex scandals people claim about him (even that is doubtful as US censorship can fabricate anything about a person at this point) the people from the west truly forgot everything he stood for as they rather saw him as a rapist than the work he did before which potentially could have changed the world

Yeah sure grab them by the pu**y doesn't sound misogynistic or predatory at all, Trump and other neocons are the same who are warmongers in the end

@fun_ghoul Well it is true many do make bot accounts a lot lately

Well really the US is still practicing imperialism through the dead ashes of the British Empire but learnt the difference as to censor and keep the population dumb than give them reasons to fight, i mean they do give freedom but enough to not cause a threat to their Empire kind of like an ant

@phoenixtoash2396 well don't drag your future generations onto this mess then, do something about your colonial oligarchs instead of open wounds to get worsened, we foreigners hate westerners for exactly this reason as your people choose to sit back instead of fixing the mess your oligarchs made and for once better your own peoples livelihoods, haven't your people learnt anything from the Russian revolution

52:39 this quote is specifically due to the fact that people are more individualistic than actually look to research and publish articles which are non biased, the reality in any field of science is the fact that corporate interests do not look to undergo actual advancement of Science and technological fields and rather stick to whichever projects make the most money than actually look for productivity as well productivity for the human race requires money right? Which of course corporatists don't want them gone, imagine how much the west could have developed and helped the rest of the world develop if they start letting go of their old century mentality and actually look at scientific non biased understanding which will benefit the rest of the world and humanity overall but the west i guess wants to use that power for luxury and comfort which is ironically ruining their own offsprings by loneliness something no money can get rid off

well really if you put any person in power no matter how much incorruptible you are or claim choices will be made which the world could demonize you for, Putin even if he wins this war if he doesnt align with any of the interests of his oligarchs will be quickly shut down no matter how much good intentions you have, politics defines how humans are overall and the type of decisions whether for self gain or welfare will come to choices which will put us in controversial positions, i mean we can choose to bury the truth or be buried by the world
