| Topic | So why is the entire market crashing? |
| pure_temper 01/24/22 11:05:16 AM #14 | some investors are taking some profit, some are spooked because of fears due to the military buildup happening around Ukraine and Taiwan, some are worried about Evergrande and situations like it affecting the broader economy there's no single reason --- It's obvious all religions are fundamentally true. |

| Topic | Should billionaires exist? |
| pure_temper 01/14/22 11:46:45 AM #89 | The_Korey posted... How kan the love of money be the root of all evil if evil existed before humans? They got money in heaven? Christians got another day job to look forwards to after death? Was Satan's rebellion about trickle down economics? it's talking about the root of all evil for humans - the love for money. not the existence of an abstract concept of evil in itself, but how the root of all evil really gets its start in someone's heart. basically happens to someone when they want more and more and become greedy and it's all about money/power/control --- It's obvious all religions are fundamentally true. |

| pure_temper 01/13/22 5:46:43 PM #65 | was anyone actually surprised? it was the common sense ruling based on the common sense laws of the land. its the way it is now. Whoever was fanatically in favor of what would have been huge overreach should evaluate why they hold such a belief --- It's obvious all religions are fundamentally true. |
| Topic | The COVID Vaccine is a Public Health issue. Not an individual one. |
| pure_temper 12/24/21 4:04:27 PM #62 | Anyone making it black and white without including immunity from past infection in the conversation is acting as an idealogue or trying to sell politics or completely dropping the ball. Covid vaccinations are a complicated and personal question and it's up to each person to make an informed decision for what is right for them by consulting with their primary care physician or a pharmacist or another medical professional. Unless the conversation is specifically about people who have not had covid yet and are in a high-case area, it's nonsensical to make it about who is selfish or not selfish because that's not how it works. Immunity is a thing. NFL's chief medical officer also just announced that asymptomatic people do not spread it as well and so far it seems that reinfection is very rare and ends up being asymptomatic or shorter-lasting. This is an irresponsible topic for a moderator to make. If it does not include mention of past immunity, the differences between symptomatic and asymptomatic cases, and the fact that omicron can evade vaccines...it's doing nothing to inform anyone or guide anyone to their primary care physician and is instead just causing divisions and pitting side vs side where it makes no sense to have any. --- It's obvious all religions are fundamentally true. |

| pure_temper 12/19/21 9:50:37 PM #175 | Hi Allen, can we please get filters so that we can filter out anything that has a flair we don't want to read at this time? Along with some detection of which topics may be related to which flair, so that if someone repeatedly fails to flair their topics based on that classification you would then start sending them to the moderator queue for review? --- It's obvious all religions are fundamentally true. |

| Topic | TIL credit scores didn't exist before 1989 |
| pure_temper 12/19/21 9:12:20 PM #80 | life hack - take a college class or two and get a small student loan to get a fancy nice laptop that'll last you like 3-5 years. like a shiny nice macbook pro. it'll be low interest and maybe even eventually discharged, and it improves your credit score if you pay it every month for a bit. should have a nice laptop anyway and a class couldn't hurt and it's just a small way to show that you can repay money that was borrowed, which makes creditors more willing to lend in the future and in larger amounts. --- It's obvious all religions are fundamentally true. |

| pure_temper 12/19/21 8:24:18 PM #22 | it's unnecessary and would place too much power in one place. also hard to unwind if it starts going wrong and we end up with authoritarian regimes cropping up some more. --- It's obvious all religions are fundamentally true. |

| pure_temper 12/16/21 12:51:21 PM #14 | as long as they are following rules and regulations on disclosing trades and movement of funds and etc, i'm fine with it. insider trading rules are a thing and they will need to be beholden to them like anyone else, and even moreso due to their power. but she's fundamentally correct. --- It's obvious all religions are fundamentally true. |

| pure_temper 12/09/21 7:20:46 PM #30 | Crazyman93 posted... Speaking of a war against equal powers, we haven't lost. Vietnam and Afghanistan not withstanding. And really, by military power we didn't lose in Vietnam, public opinion turned against the war. Yeah, those were attempts to invest and keep the peace. In Afghanistan's case, it was up to the Afghanistan army and people to take the reigns after so long. In a conventional war where it's about destruction or an Allied vs Axis type of situation, American military will not lose based on what the latest reports say. Especially since the QUAD and NATO are things. --- It's obvious all religions are fundamentally true. |

| Topic | Why don't more people listen to youtube finance videos for help with money? |
| pure_temper 12/09/21 7:16:32 PM #7 | well they're pretty popular and American households have had record reserves of cash for over a year and a half now due to the pandemic + stimulus in fact, we are spending so much on services and products that it's one of the major reasons for the supply chain struggles even though the ports themselves are recovering already. we have lots of cash and pent up demand and consumers are spending accordingly --- It's obvious all religions are fundamentally true. |

Between the US being geared to fight a war against a much weaker nation and operating under the presumption of not having to fight for air superiority, and the indisputable fact that China is rapidly modernizing their forces, this is not an accurate statement. The Chinese aren't afraid of us, and their saber rattling says it. Appear strong when you are weak. - Sun Tzu The Tiger is all bark and no bite yet. If they wanted to do something and could do something they would have done it a year ago. Too late now with Taiwan and Ukraine modernizing too, and our giant infusion of defense spending.

Its not been that long since WW2 and fascist tendencies are still out there. Its better to navigate in a way that fosters cooperation for common goals like the climate and trade export and import deals, rather than to give them a slap on the wrist if it just encourages more Strongman talk from the CCP heads. --- It's obvious all religions are fundamentally true. |

They would be so ashamed these things are not a game because there are weapons involved. We need to interact with other nations in a way that is conducive to continued peace and growth across the board. Imo these types of hardline stances may seem morally justified but if the practical effect is destruction and conflict, its ineffective --- It's obvious all religions are fundamentally true. |

| pure_temper 12/09/21 4:31:37 PM #13 | Turbam posted... Corporations brainwash people into believing that unions are bad they can be at a size when they become like a government or like a competitive interest to elected bodies. For example how police unions are a thorn in the side for some left ideas like reducing police budgets. Etc. its not that unions themselves are bad or that workers dont deserve $, the most nuanced conservative or libertarian take on unions would be that they can scale to the point where they can create problems too. --- It's obvious all religions are fundamentally true. |

| pure_temper 12/09/21 4:30:19 PM #12 | Starbucks is at a scale now where it should happen across the board and 100% of profit left over after expenses and R&D investments being divided evenly across the workers per store. And have them operate 24/7 with a night time crew too, will increase service availability and # of jobs and profit. I think theres more and more demand for night-time services than ever thanks to the pent-up demand in general and also the massive transition to a digital and renewables economy.

And wages are still growing over the last year years across the board, pandemic challenges notwithstanding. massive increase in consumer demand and consumer spending, large increases in household cash reserves. At this point the supply chain issues are because of demand. Everyone is able to buy whatever they want or place an order or change jobs for better jobs due to the labor shortage which was already fueling wage increases. --- It's obvious all religions are fundamentally true. |
