  • India can’t rival China’s productivity: its culture is too different.

    ( dad was of India, but Anglo-Indian/British. I’ve more understanding of India’s culture because family talked about it, than most North Americans, but never lived there )

    I’ve been told that India is the ONLY country in the world, where bribery is normal to get the government-official to actually do their job, whereas normally it’s to get them to not do their job…

    The caste-system’s entitlement conditioning, of the upper castes, compared with the abused-all-the-time lower-caste people…

    that caste-system is itself the enemy of Indian competitiveness.

    You can’t just stick makeup on some random animal & claim it’s actually some completely-different kind of animal…

    The reactions, the instincts are different.

    There are books on offshoring work, & the dangers of doing-so, with different cultures…

    In Japan there is now a “loud American” job-position: the person there makes certain that the operation doesn’t keep quietly accommodating corrupt-management or wrong-strategy, until they’re sunk/dead: the loud American’s job is to speak what the conforming Japanese want said, but wouldn’t ever say, because they aren’t gaijin.

    India’s famous for power-distance: inferiors won’t be tolerated to speak truth to superiors, ever.

    That is produced by their caste system.

    That isn’t competitive.

    It’s deeply cultural.

    Modi’s Hindutva India isn’t likely to lessen that, is it?

  • haven’t read that article: nobody’s identifying the root point, & I don’t expect that to change…

    From what I can see, Hamas intentionally sacrificed the Palestinians so that the sadism/nihilism of Netanyahu’s “Israel” would focus such absolute-hatred among the region, that Israel’s “deterrent” would cease to exist:

    IF Israel’s military-violence-threat motivates the region to hold-back, THEN the region is deterred.

    However…

    IF Israel’s genociding convinces the entire region that it doesn’t matter what Israel does to them, they HAVE TO annihilate Israel…

    THEN … there’s no “deterrent” left, is there?

    That is Hamas’s strategy, whether it was unconscious or conscious: they used Palestine’s lives as bait, & Israel’s ideological-rabies took the bait.

    Now, it’ll only be a few years more, before that inevitable action->reaction happens, when the absolute-annihilation-of-Israel happens, no matter what the cost…

    I can’t possibly “side with” either: ideological genociding isn’t valid, either way, & worshipping one’s own religion-regime, instead of just surrendering to LivingSpirit, isn’t sane ( but is absolutely normal, on this planet, for millenia ).

    All I can do is recommend that real Jews get as far away from Israel as possible, before the inevitable annihilation happens, & hope that the Palestinians can get out & find safety somewhere else, because Trump certainly doesn’t value their lives…

  • The US is going to be declaring war on Canada in less than 3y:

    The reason that Trump “needs” Greenland & Canada is as a staging-ground for the pincer he needs, with Putin’s Russia, to butcher woke Europe between.

    Unless Canada capitulates, then he can’t destroy Europe as he wants to.

    Therefore, if Canada stands its ground, what Russia did to Ukraine, … the US is going to be doing to Canada, beginning in 2 to 2.5y.

    I hope we arm to the teeth, & I hope we fight to the death.

    I pray you survive your own country’s rabies, & surviving it may actually require you to flee your country.

    I don’t expect Trump to tolerate any non-Trump-worshippers in the coming years…

    I’ve got the feeling that any US citizens whom we turn-away, as refugees, from the Trump-cult-country, … we’re executing, … simply by forcing to remain within the US for the inevitable political-SS to exterminate, in the coming years…

    Please keep in mind that getting out before it’s too-late is required, as a survivor of Auschwitcz pointed out…

    By the time they realized it was too-late, … it was too late.

    DON’T delay as they did, in the Netherlands. ( the documentary “Anne Frank Remembered” iirc )

    I guess humankind’s unconscious-mind wanted the “drama” of enforcing this throughout our world, now…

    I wonder what tiny fraction of humankind’s going to be surviving this-century…

    No matter: IF the LivingSpirit-loyal people survive, then the world will flourish, again: Nature’s amazing at healing, when honestly helped…

  • Dood, I now am certain that the US is going to declare WAR on Canada, in less than 3y, simply because only by possessing both Canada & Greenland, can Trump & Putin have the pincer they want to butcher the hated woke EU between.

    We’re going to be dying in this war, & it’ll last several years, before 1 side falls, I expect ( it is entirely-possible for the US to fall before Canada, simply through its own Civil War Part2 gutting it, internally ).

    ( capitulation of Canada means butchery/slavery, nothing better, so this had better be a fight-to-the-death, in our government’s view: I don’t want them selling us out! )

    _ /\ _



  • Not only “in the region”, but EVERYwhere.

    The real reason that Trump wants Canada and Greenland is so that between Putin & him they can crush the EU in a pincer.

    They want to be the ONLY “kings” ruling the world.

    I expect to see the US declare total WAR against Canada in less than 3y.

    All the meddling that their CIA did to adulterate our elections, through the years, & now this…

    ( the CIA admitted it adulterated our elections, to prevent socialism from having strength in our country: they undermined the NDP consistently, apparently, for years, “if” they ever stopped…

    I’ve no particular love for the NDP, though Jack Layton was the most passionate about Canada leader at the top of the federal parties, for many years, but … doesn’t integrity mean ANYthing, to ANYbody, in the international political realm?? )

  • There is the problem of “elections”, however: dictators have this … habit … of having “elections” which produce the officially-desired results…

    I remember that election in the Phillipines, when a Marcos got elected…

    NO Western “journalism” reported on it, from what I could see, but after the variability of the 1st few polls, reporting in, suddenly ALL the polling-stations were reporting 2/3rds for Marcos, always…

    NO population votes that way.

    I pray Hungary can get clear of him, XOR I pray that the EU can evict Hungary, as Orban’s a Putin-ally within the EU, & that’s suicidal, now.

    PS: thank you for linking to a good information-source for Hungary, for us…

  • May your civil-rights side win, but…

    Erdogan did an aweful lot of machiavellian siding-with-Putin-siding-against-Putin, re Ukraine, and if he’s capable of doing that machiavellian stuff, between those sides, he’s likely more dangerous than people give him credit for…

    Further, if he’s got the help or backing of the Putin+Trump tag-team, or the new Global Fascist Alliance, then … that too would be fatal to many citizens, in the future, probably…

    I’m remembering a discovery when Germany reunited…

    it turned-out that more than 50% of the population was informants, in order to ingratiate themselves with the ruling-authorities…

    Please be careful: our world is going to hell on a sled, now, & the speed is picking-up…

    Please be careful, & all success I wish the civil-rights loyal people of Turkey, & all countries, … these are going to be difficult decades, until our world sorts itself out, & human-nature is force-transformed into honestly-grown-up nature…

  • I remember when there was some … what was it, hoof & mouth disease, or something, in the UK?

    The Problem™, was that farms for these animals are crowded,

    AND trades of animals were sooo quick, that by the time they clued-in that this was happening, many farms were infected,

    & they weren’t able to just identify all the now-infected farms, because that wasn’t part of their national management system, apparently…

    Remapping it to mega-chickenfarms,

    I’d bet they’ve got specialist chick-producing-farms, & then the mega egg-farms, & that they trade with each-other ( replacing dead birds, if nothing else )

    & the transactions are happening at such a pace, at national-scale,

    that any infection which gains ground somewhere, can essentially “zerg rush” the entire-system, before the controls have a chance to clamp-down properly, AND many simply won’t obey any clamp-down order anyways, because obeying law is unAmerican, culturally…

    iow, it’s in large part, a systems question.

    The gestation-period for any illness makes trades that happen quicker-than-that systemically dangerous, when there’s some highly-transmissible pathogen going 'round ( whether we know about it, or not ),

    & same as you have to slow the trades-cycle of stock-markets to human-scale ( say 2-second intervals for recording trades ), in order to take the stock-market back from the millisecond-trade-algorithms,

    you also have to batch the trades in infectable-farm-animals so as to make it more-difficult for transmissible pathogens to OWN a national-economy, but … moneyarchy won’t allow that management, of course…

    In the UK case, there was a clear division into superspreader farms vs normal farms.

    I’m presuming the same will be true in all farm-animals-industries, at scale.

    ( sorry for breaking this into pieces, while writing it, but braindamage: it’s easier for me to understand the meanings when each piece is clear, by itself: it’s my mental-equivalent to a wheelchair, perhaps : )

    PS: I just realized…

    Some farmers are trading-addicted: it’s the “buzz” they get from the doing-deals, which they love sooo much…

    I wonder if the superspreader sites were partly the result of that mode of operating a farm?


  • I’m vegan, usually, because the meditations I want cannot be reached when I’m not.

    Please try intermittently supplementing with Choline if you go vegan: choline-deficiency produces a “chronic fatigue syndrome” condition.

    I need 2x tablets / day, when vegan, so 200mg actual-choline, in 500mg of choline bitartrate.

    I don’t want other people having the damn years of difficulties I had, for no reason.

    Simply try it, & if it consistently removes vegan-chronic-fatigue-syndrome from your life, THEN that was the cause, & make that supplementation permanent.

    I’m not saying all will be so affected, but fscking years I wasted trying to find the cause of that part of my health-problems…

    it’s an actual chemical-requirement, for some.

  • Somebody PLEASE get Zelenskiy to understand that Putin & Trump are committed to butchering ALL of Europe, & that “playing pattycake” with them isn’t rational, strategic, or even slightly valid!!

    The reason that Trump wants Canada and Greenland is so that a pincer between Trump & Putin can DESTROY Europe, leaving only-them as world “kings”.

    SOMEBODY GET HIM TO UNDERSTAND THIS ISN’T THE US of A THAT HE’S DEALT-WITH IN THE PAST, please?!

    ( I’d also ask that someone communicate to him that sooner-or-later Trump’s going to have him as a guest in the US, … & just arrest him, to hand-over to Putin, probably later-this-year, the way things are going )

    Trump+Musk is Putin’s Apprentice & Accomplice.

    This has been setting-up for about 4 decades…

    IF Zelenskiy won’t understand, THEN … Ukraina’s lost.

  • Oh, while the US is waging TOTAL WAR against Canada, 3y from now, if anyone think that China-backed-Russia isn’t going to be rampaging Europe, they’re mindblind/incompetent.

    This is THE GREAT FILTER: humankind’s species-“puberty”.

    Grow-up transformation either will be earned, by some remnant of our world’s people,

    XOR

    the galaxy will be silent of our-kind, permanently, by the end of this century, forever.

    Natural Selection, it’s called, within an Extinction Event, too…

  • Then you don’t understand what’s REALLY going-on:

    Trump wants to smash Canada & Greenland, so that between Trump+Musk on ALL of North America + Greenland,

    & Putin-backed-by-China,

    the hated-by-them EU can be DESTROYED,

    & then they get to be the ONLY “kings” ruling the world.

    FIGHT TO THE DEATH TO SAVE EUROPE’S LIFE, if you have to!

    Trump’s declaring war against Canada, my country, is certain, within 2-2.5y, maximum.
