LOL Shura, you like to poke sticks in beehives.I have been on WSB for 2 years now. I found the forum quite entertaining due to their idgaf about political correctness and their bravado in trading and posting wins and losses and egging each other. The drama! There were occasional racist or homophobic jokes here and there, so what, I wouldn't say it it was the main flavor of WSB. Certainly not the reason to shut down the site. But I am sure because WSB dgaf about PC and identify politics, AND they are giving headaches to hedge funds managers, they will soon be labeled domestic terrorists and they will be deplatformed. I have noticed a few articles cropping up on mainstream media now trying to link WSB to white supremacy. IP: Logged |

Lawsuits at the ready, I see. Excellent. I will tell you a secret about my highly secretive scorpio self, Belage. I do not support a race war, but I am all for a class war. This is how we bring down the beast. IP: Logged |

Interesting point of view. That is true marxism you know. Marxism does not believe race matters. It believes class matters way more than race. ETA: personally, after years of progressive work and acquiring a few gray hair which I carefully dye, I do not support wars unless absolutely necessary, and in self defense. We can take down the outside beast, but the inside beast will create another outside beast. Such is the nature of humans when they are unevolved. IP: Logged |

Traditional Marxism, arguably. In practice that theory often went belly. Either way, modern Marxism (Im using the term broadly) has adapted. Race struggle proved to be a better brand than class struggle in the US. Something something original sin. Im sure you recall the failed Occupy.I have no real issue with a loose social hierarchy. And if Im honest with myself, at heart Im a monarchist. But with the understanding that when the elites fail the people, the people must take them down. quote: We can take down the outside beast, but the inside beast will create another outside beast.

You are a fascinating scorpio. I have studied in depth classical marxism back when I thought it would save the world. I am not too familiar with neo-marxism, but I would imagine it would readily incorporate (meaning, co-opt) race struggle in an attempt to utilize every crack in the facade to bring down the system.
My issue with marxism is that the ones who end up in charge of ruling the rest of the plebeian classes act no better than the previous rulers. Every.Single.Time. That is why at heart I am a libertarian. I have learned to distrust big government. IP: Logged |

Interestingly, Yeshua was sort of a "communist". Don't believe me? Everyone who wanted to follow him, he told them all the same, if you want to follow me, you have to give up your wealth. Ok, but what most either forget, look over, or don't dig further into is, that this wealth went into a common pot that was not to be used for them and their needs but for the poor etc they came across. And this was not a "well if you feel like it" kind of thing. It was a firm command and he turned away folks like Nicodemus who couldn't hack it (he later came back and did what was so hard for him to do). So when ultra right wingers hurl the epitaphs of "socialist" or "communist" as an insult, I without shame say, "well, I am a follower of Yeshua". (wink, wink, smile). Granted, politically speaking such systems are very risky when you are dealing with corrupt people. Hence, politically speaking, I'm not actually either of those, but closest to anarchist, which does not mean "chaos". That is convenient propaganda. Most humans are decent hearted and are self organizing by nature. It is primarily the small percentage of people within the ASPD spectrum that cause most of the problems among humanity. After the collapse, what will happen is that small communities will organically build up here and there, and over time, different communities will become devoted to different things, which people will become attracted to on a "like attracts and begets like" basis. ASPD (psychopathy and sociopathy) in all its forms will not be tolerated. People will be more consciously and actively psychic as time goes on, and will start to see through such types more and more and not allow them into positions of power/influence like we do now because most humans are so easy to fool and/or lack self love and thus attract/are attracted to slower vibratory systems and peoples. The problem for and of government, is ever one of psychopathy. We mistakenly think we need government to keep these at bay. "What will happen if we have no government, all the Joker types will come and get us!" And yet, what always happens over time? The in the closet, quiet, non obvious Joker types worm their way into government and co opt it, and then society starts breaking down over time. Believe it or not, but we are finally coming up to a cycle when humanity has the very real potential to completely break that pattern. Attunement to divine, Source like Love has interesting effects on a person. It tends to expand, clarify, and make more accurate their perceptual capacity. As this starts to become more collective in nature (and it will, and has started already to some extent), everything else will change for the better. But first, everything that doesn't matter, all the distractions, will be completely stripped and ripped from us, like a parent taking away an IPAD that a bratty child won't get off of. "Hey, maybe now you'll go outside and play with the other kids. Just one word of caution, if you don't play nice, you won't ever see that IPAD again." IP: Logged |

Conservatives are supposedly muzzled, but I saw trump Jr. weighing in on this. The people who stormed the capitol, tried to kill people, and overthrow an election, are domestic terrorists. That’s exactly what they are - like Timothy McVeigh. It was just another day in sociopathic trump’s America, and that will be his legacy. IP: Logged |

Excellent infomentary on how Tim McVeigh was not actually a "domestic terrorist" but a good little soldier right up till the end. In other words, this was another inside job. Like 9/11, there are a lot of holes in the official Oklahoma city, Federal building bombing account, and Corbett pokes into almost all of them. http://youtu.be/Vgfi1QZILxk IP: Logged |

One of the difference between Yeshua and communism is that Yeshua never advocated forcing people to give up their wealth or forcibly taking away their wealth. If you read carefully, the giving up of wealth was something they were to do willingly. Morever, if you read that chapter, you will see that before Yeshua told this young man who was asking him what he should do, Jesus looked at him and loved him. Mark 10:21 That was not said with anger, with hatred, with guilt tripping. That was said with love. So unless you can tell me that communism is telling people with love that they must give up their wealth, there is absolutely no comparisation with Yeshua. And that is on the superficial interpretation of the scripture. There are so many deeper levels of interpretation. What does it mean to give up one's wealth? Are we really asked to give up EVERYTHING we have and live on the street as homeless? Obviously this cannot be the the right interpretation. Yeshua spent time at the home of wealthy people. Ate at their tables. Healed their loved ones. Was buried in the tomb of a wealthy follower, Joseph of Arimathea. So the deeper interpretation of this injunction is to not be owned by your wealth. If money is your God, if money rules your morals and ethics, if you are nothing without your wealth, then you may want to reevaluate your spiritual values You can have wealth but it should not own you.

This old 'Jesus as social activist' take is one born of materialism. The Cosmic Christ didn't incarnate to collect a tithe. Speaking of, who was in charge of the common pot o money? Oh yeah. Judas. The one who couldn't see the Christ past his obsession with revolt, political action, and fair distribution of money. Ive been there and I recognize my brother and his blindness. Lazarus was wealthy, evidenced by his burial, and was not asked to relinquish his wealth as was the 'rich young man' of Matthew and Mark. Why? Lazarus was not attached to his wealth, it made no mark on his soul, it did not impede his spiritual refinement. ("With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible") The young rich man was crippled by his attachment. That's the key. Not the money, but the attachment. Nicodemus' high state is shown by his "nighttime" conversation with Christ. IP: Logged |

Kudos to the Robinhood kids to keep the stock market at top when the country was going through worst. No time in history are we seeing so many option calls. Though, the Reddit users deserves credit to show us the possibility when all minds thinks as one and act as one. Bravo, they clearly beat Wall street. Heheh, Robinhood kids should be getting some ideas now. Lets see who the next Gamestomp is. First seek kingdom of heaven and rest should follow. As long as these folks are not attached to their wealth, Jesus surely approves them. Osho had 100s of Rolls ROyce to prove a point. Our morality is superficial. Look at the long faces at church. When the veil was lifted, everyone knew the Roman catholics worship Jesus son of Lucifer. Go search on you tube to see recordings that are publicly open these days. No one is hiding who they belong to any more.

This is the class action lawsuit just filed against Robinhood for preventing the buys of Gamespot. https://docs.reclaimthenet.org/robinhood-class-action.pdf Those kids are not playing.  It is actually refreshing to see they are not about to let the oligarchs rule them and their money, I bet they won't submit to the Great Reset either. IP: Logged |

Edgar Cayce's work/guidance indicates quite plainly that Nicodemus was the young, wealthy man who initially could not give up his wealth, but then later came back and did. I was not advocating political communism as I earlier stated, and plainly stated, it can and has been used wrongly by political powers. IP: Logged |

Not familiar with Cayce so can't speak to this What are you advocating for? Either Christ took issue with wealth or no.

Unconstitutional. Just as everything is happening around us these days. Does any body care at all?
Capitalism promotes free market, those kids who use Robinhood , have the free will and right to buy or sell stock they want. This proves Robinhood is part of the circle jerk elite boys. I hope democrats and republicans both work together in getting deep in to this. If a kid that trades loses $1000 , the elites will not halt trading nor can they tell users to not take the opposite side of trade so that he doesn't loose. As I mentioned there is deep collusion here. Some wall street hedge funders lost millions and hence they approached inner circle to stop the trades. So unconstitional. Kudos to the Robinhood traders to act like a true American hero
