  1.  @anthonybrett  Exactly. JP doesn't mean that people are always arrested, tried, and convicted of their crimes, but that people pay for their wrongdoings in other ways. I told someone that sins carry their own punishment. There's always a price. Often it's a price in deteriorating personal or business relationships (speaking of myself, here); sometimes it's less visible. But there's always a price.

  2.  @happinesstan  Is that a joke? Her entire mindset is left-wing self-entitled wokeness. She's a typical screaming leftist banshee.

  3. I don't understand why you hesitate to put your son on the keto diet. Just make sure that he eats enough protein, which some people neglect.

  5. It's philosophy. If you want to understand the discussion, you have to learn the terminology.

  6. When Dr. Lindsay started studying this subject, he was a mathematician, not a philosopher. He was starting from square one. He had to learn all of the terminology not only from traditional philosophy, but then the same terms' different meanings in Marxism. It's not easy.

  7.  @taramckinley7585  Psychologists like JP are not MDs. Psychiatrists have MDs. JP has a PhD but not an MD.

  8. The proverb application misses the proportion element. Let's say you spend $1 in the traditional industry. To get the same result, the new industry has to spend $20, plus there's the environmental cost of the manufacturing and the operation of that new equipment. Look up the results of putting solar panels in Africa: fields of solar panels that are trashed by the locals. Or windmills, with a huge cost to manufacture, a huge environmental cost to operate, a short lifespan, and you're left with tons of scrap metal that has to be reclaimed.

  9. ​ @martinmuller3244 They said his defense of truth failed, but it turns out that he was right all along. You're a riot - wrestling with his conscience! You're the one who should be wrestling with your conscience. How can you write such drivel knowing that what he said is true and they put him in prison for it? Shame on you.

  10. I married a man who is fascinated by history and religion like I am, so we're good!

  11.  @sleepinglioness5754  I'm a 66 year old woman, you delusional, self-entitled prig. Do you want to take me on? Come on, let's go. Everything you said is a lie, and you look at the world through the lens of pretended victimhood. When you go around imputing the worst intentions to the simplest actions, everything is an offense to you.

  12. In the context of the video, that means that you use a washtub and a scrubbing board, right?

  16. I experienced the university grade wokism way back in the 1990s. I had a student who did the work and got a good grade on the midterm. The second half of the semester, he stopped coming to class and his test grades went in the toilet, so his final grade made him unhappy. He complained to the chair of my department, but the proof was all there. Yes, his midterm grade was good, but his second exam and the final were terrible. Because the test grades were averaged, he should have thanked his lucky stars that he didn't fail. But I saw how things were going. It's so much worse now. But even back then, you weren't supposed to give bad grades, no matter what. I knew a history professor who gave a C to a girl who couldn't write a single sentence on her final exam except that her dog died.

  17. Marxism is a circular argument.

  18. About 1:20. Many people don't want identified on the internet because of doxing. Ask Tucker Carlson and Tim Poole. It's a real issue. We have more than just ourselves to worry about, but our families, too.

  19. It's an interview; the interviewer asks questions of the interviewee as if he doesn't know the answer. Watch videos on any topic, like tiny houses or how clothes are manufactured; no matter how knowledgeable the interviewer may be, he lets the interviewee explain. As for why he doesn't know how to pronounce autophagy, you can read the word a thousand times without knowing how it's pronounced; you may not even realize that you don't know how to pronounce it because you've said it in your thoughts so often. When you finally go to say it out loud, it then occurs to you that you don't really know how it's generally pronounced.

  20. ​​ @susansargent396 Not everyone lives in a dangerous area. My kids walked to school without a problem. Plus, if kids walk together, less is likely to happen. Bullies don't like to pick on kids who are in a group.

  21. There's almost no such thing as plants that are the same as they were 5,000 years ago. Modern plants create very severe reactions in some people, even in tiny amounts. That's why JP's daughter is carnivore, because she spent more than 20 years of her life with severe, debilitating chronic illnesses that were eventually traced to food allergies. She's allergic to every plant that they tested her for. You should look up her story. Some people aren't allergic to plants, some people are very allergic. There's no point in being judgemental about it; you won't cure someone's reactions to plants by shaming them.

  23. I'm sure he would. Wells called William James, a theosophist, his friend and "master." Theosophy underpins every insane thing we're seeing today. The UN, the World Economic Forum, the World Health Organization, and the top people in probably every western government. I only fell down that rabbit hole recently. My mind is spinning.

  24. I have to say that young men often don't have the physical marks of a violent lifestyle yet. I know from experience. There wasn't anything about his personal relationships that could have led me to believe that he was an abuser. I've had 30 years to think about it.

  25. A few dollars to someone with an income of $200/year is a major expense. For example, in Somalia the AVERAGE yealy income is $430. There is no minimum wage. $200/year is probably a generous estimate of the lower-end income range.

  26. You have it exactly backwards. The climate-change activists want LESS CO2 in the air and claim that the use of hydrocarbons is increasing CO2 in the atmosphere. The UN found that the earth is, therefore, greener now than it was in 2000 by 15%, turning desert into green, verdant areas. The climate change freaks want to kill CO2 in the atmosphere; there is even research in Israel on a bacteria to consume the CO2 in the air. That's what will kill life.

  27. I just have to comment about JP blaming Putin for the high energy costs in Europe: Putin was still supplying Europe with cheap energy (against his own best interest,)until WE blew up the pipeline. Then we offered to supply Europe ourselves at 5 times the price. Coincidence? I think not.

  28. ​ @JagadguruSvamiVegananda You're wrong. You're also in the wrong place. I believe that plants started out as good food for humans, but almost no plants that we consume today bear a resemblance to the originals. The plants we eat today contain substances that are meant to prevent a predator from eating them, and those substances trigger varying degrees of bad reactions in us. Some people barely register a reaction at all; others, like JP's daughter, react very, very badly. You should look up her story. It's horrific. She can't consume any plant without bad effects. When she tested, she had allergic reactions to every single plant. That's how she started eating carnivore; it's the only way of eating left for her. Many people have found that their health improves tremendously once they stop consuming plants.

  29. There is no catastrophe in the Arctic. The ice cap is shifting, not downsizing. The shifting is the result of the magnetic poles shifting.
