I hope they remember the folly of the other third parties, if this is the path they are heading toward.

Whatever you do, DO NOT RUN FACE FIRST INTO A PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION.

Gain support, Gain local Seats, gain state seats, gain federal seats. But for the love of all that is sane and rational, do not run for the Presidency until you are certain it will be a winner.

Nothing breaks faith in political parties like repeated lost candidacies for the presidency.

IMO - Racial/Ethnic/National Coding isn't inherently wrong. But using that coding to push Stereotypes and oppressive mindsets is.

Rule of thumb, if you're worried you will in some way cross that line, don't do coding.

Yes, it's a cycle.

But the point is that if its this persistent, then at some point it will start slipping through the cracks. They'll either bend or break

China is likely perpetually at the boiling point of a social uprising, but they just have so much power and so strong of a boot that they can keep pushing it down.

But as the saying goes. "They have to be lucky every time, We only have to get lucky once."

Those aren't relationships, those are necessities of living under a slave-driver.

Lie to them, use them to better yourself, and use that power to undo this evil that has been done.

They do not see you as a person, and will not treat you with any such respect. Nor will they think twice about lying to you or using you to better themselves.

Its not baffling, it's the stock market.

Simple basic, and to the point.

If you're a publicly traded company, you're legally required to be fucking dogshit.

You have to meet quarterly expectations, and if you don't you have to fire people to meet the """needs""" of the shareholders.

Father of 3, 300K in debt: "But we're in the black! we're making bank!"

Wealthy Geriatric 110 year old corpse: "yes, but we didn't make enough bank, so you're fired."

This is a system of the utterly deranged.

I'm getting to the point where I need to start ending relationships with people.

If you're a trump voter after all of this, after january 6th, after all of his treasonous actions, and after this clear step towards hitler, we can't even hold a decent conversation in public, and we certainly can not be friends.

If only Jafar had trained a bit more. He may have been to strong for the dragon to kill him.

Also, depending on the era. Shen-long will grant 1, 2 or 3 wishes.
