is facebook going to become "free to speak" like X in the near future?
Not if Zuck wants to fulfil his lifelong dream of becoming a full AI.
geeze, where are these posts going, another one by JWoods dissapeared.
What is happening with the speaker of the house position? One of "our guys" gets voted in there who is sure to reform things and they cave. What is behind this?

There are probably some pretty big names here on .win. :)
IRL - I have a friend who is a lesbian, she is what I call a straight gay! 😂🤣. Anyway, she’s not very impressed with the LGBT is doing with LGB.
Anyway, I digress, it’s her 50th birthday, and I brought flowers over to her. She was really grateful, but she went off on a tangent about life.
She said that she voted for Joe Biden, because she want to change, and the first day in office, he shut down the pipeline. She was so pissed off about that, she is a union worker, and was clinging to the past of the Democrat party being the working party. She said it’s no longer the way.
She had severe TDS back in the day, but today she said she is voting for Trump. She’s voting for the guy who’s gonna speak up, and fight for our country, and make this a better place to live. She wants a president in office who is not gonna take crap from anybody, and she wants him to continue with his mean tweets. She said that at first she didn’t understand the president being so forthright. He should be behind a podium, she thought… But not anymore. She wants a president. Who is gonna be kicking ass and taking names. She even mentioned his first year, and what he would do to fix all the crap that Joe Biden broke. Scorched earth, Trump! She’s registered independent, but she’s voting Trump.
These are the people that we need on our side. These are the people that the deep state cannot plan on who they’re going to vote for. I was so proud of her today! We talked about a bunch of other stuff, I was only there for a half an hour, but this girl is lit!
If you would’ve told me that she would vote for Trump four years ago, I would’ve laughed in your face. The tide is changing - for the better!
encouraging - glad you shared
This is great to read. People are waking up around us, every single day, and its just unbelievable.
Nesara/gesara. At the risk of being pummeled by my frens here, I would like to hear from people about this controversial subject. I have a friend that is constantly bringing it up and claims to be awake. Is it like chemtrails and flat earth? Or is there something there?
I think Nesara/Gesara had a foundation in late 90s when the Banskters really out did themselves and started looting the pension funds, farmers etc. People have outlined the court case that would most probably have resulted in serious judgements against the Bansters and causing fundamental changes to the economy.
Nesara was supposed to be the plan they were going to go with at that time. The 9/11 happened and all that got shelved.
Lets assume this is true for a second. Lets ask ourselves whether this plan, they call Nesara, was a real freedom deal, or a controlled opposition? Was this really a fight between the Clinton and Bush factions (Globalists vs Zionists) of the Cabal?
I have come to believe that it was simply a inter-faction fight. Remember the hanging chads? some 40 days when no one knew "who had won" the election? I think deals were being made in the back rooms for the control, and Bush's faction ultimately won and used 9/11 to get rid of Nesara.
This does not mean Nesara (if it ever existed) was a good deal. It was probably yet another weaponisation by the Cabal, where they would have given us the illusion of freeing us from the Banksters, while putting us under yet another socialistic control system.
This is from a historic perspective. Lets look at it today, with the advantage we have of not just the knowledge from Q drops, but also watching the events unfold.
Its clear now, more than ever, that Trump is following the Plan where everything will be done according to law. He is letting the enemy dig their own graves and he has setup all the EOs needed to ensure the financial collapse would be a controlled demolition.
What this means to me is that, he is not going to allow unilateral implementation of any new financial system to replace the old - be it Nesara or be it something else. His job is to allow the enemy to expose themselves, and then to ensure the disclosures allow people to wake up.
He will probably provide alternatives, but ultimately people have to decide what they want the new world to look like.
thanks.
About twenty years ago, VH1 did retrospective miniseries on bygone decades such as I ❤️ the 70s or I ❤️ the 80s, featuring comedians, music reviewers, and tv personalities serving up the ‘memberberries about historical events, pop culture, and fads from specific years. Imagine in fifteen years them rolling out the I ❤️ the 20s, lol. In the first episode, for 2020, they’ll have to spend a pretty large segment on the covid hoax. Some comedian musing about the hilarious fake death videos from China, or those madcap PCR tests, or the billionaire class locking down small business owners, that was a real laugh riot. Speaking of riots, they could then segue into the George Floyd fentanyl overdose riots. That situation was bananas! Then the election fraud. Can you believe they used mail-in ballots?! So crazy. Fast forward to the 2021 episode and those wacky vaxxes. Or to 2023 and the big tranny push.
If history makes it to 2039 or so, will people be laughing at the nonsense of this era, or will they just try to forget it?
Probably both ❤️
That’s hilarious… Keeping it real. 👏👏
That’s too funny 🤣

Spent some time in Houston this week. The "Polar Vortex" really screwed up the folks that don't know to slow down when it's icy out. The police had to close off the giant cement overpasses since they don't enough equipment to properly treat the roads.
While traveling around the city, I noticed that someone spray painted an awesome easily visible stencil saying:
It was a relief to see the work of fellow soldiers on the battlefield as there isn't usually much headway here in New England. I couldn't snap a good photo as we were moving and the windows were wet. 😥
Saw several trucks with flags and FJB Edition Badges nicely placed on fenders. Several folks joked about the mess at the border and how all the money is going to Ukraine.
Can't wait for the whole country to get more patriotic like Texas!

Uvalde school making rounds again. Still not seeing them report on parents being arrested outside the school while the cops were slurping on the water fountain and checking their orders on their phone inside. Maybe I am bluffed with another leftist plot-so many they do.
Hey, my 3-day ban for racism (even though I wasn't being racist but rather challenging an ideology) is over. Anyhow, I got downvoted for saying that I didn't believe Trump when he said that Vivek wasn't MAGA, and now Trump is standing right next to him with a big grin. I said that I don't take Trump at face value because he tears people down and then builds them up. Turns out I was right. "He's gonna be working with us for a long time."
I would tend to agree with you, that Vivek is not MAGA. Just because he’s campaigning and seeing the right things does it mean he’s Maga. until he can approve it, they’re just words. Anybody can say words. Hopefully he is, my hoping my trust is not in Vivek that’s for sure.
We are long way off from knowing this for sure.
Thats very loaded. Can mean a lot of things.
Either way, I don't take anything at face value, especially with GEOTUS. 5D chess.
How do the “powers at be” determine your icon or emoji thing. Somebody, please tell me what they are called. Some are obvious but I’m just curious. I have noticed two people have the same one. I believe that was done on purpose to confuse people like me😝 Only took me several months to figure out I was talking to two different people. You know who you are, little white dog (or something) wearing maga read hat. I don’t remember this username, they have my pillow guy in blue shirt hugging a pillow. Well, if you got bad eyes you see a woman with big boobs with her hands in the air. Yeah, that took a while also. Finally enlarged my screen. At least things are interesting here.
Believe it or not, there is an international committee that meets every year or so and propose new emojis/modifications etc.
That’s interesting to know. I wasn’t asking or inquiring because I’m looking to get one. If it’s meant to be it will happen. I understand it’s a points system and just happy to be here. I’ve just been curious how the heck the different ones are chosen. It’s got to be detailed research to match up to the personalities or something else.
you have to be a 17th level anon to even know about that. why would you expose us?

Don't reveal all the secrets. It's fun to have a little mystery as people begin to see the truth :)

Just found out the sinus has a microbiome aswell
Bacteria are all over your body. You could not live without them. Some are pathogenic and some are commensal. If you are well nourished, the good ones keep the bad ones in check. Don't use too many anti-bacterial products. If you have a strong immune system you will be fine.Play in the dirt. I's good for you. 'Nuff said.
So true. The only time I wash my hands is before I eat. I’m not one that continuously washes my hands with soap or hand sanitizer. It wreaks havoc on your skin. Have to let the immune system kick in.
Bless you!

I keep hearing certain loud people go on and on about "the labor theory of value," that money should be backed NOT by gold, but by the labor of the people.
"For every industrial hour worked, a dollar issued. This way, the purchasing power of money-to-goods remains constant for the benefit of its people, while the nation's spending power continues to grow."
I am not an economist, but that has never sat right with me. Gut says this is bullshit that will fall apart easily, but can't place a finger on how. Maybe because not every job is worth the same per hour?
Can someone help me show why this is a bad idea?
At first glance it would appear that the possibilities for fraud are endless. Who WOULDN'T say their workers put in 1000 a day? When the total was 50.......
It's not a horrible idea. I believe Buffalo, NY had a local scrip system in wide use for many years, possibly still in use today, based on exchange of work. Maybe it's another town, but it was somewhere upstate NY. But pretty soon different labor has different value, in that a transmission mechanic may ask for more of the dollars created than a car washer, even if the job done by each takes the same amount of time. So it's labor-based, but market defines the value of labor freely, and differently according to demand and supply.
continued ...
so to answer your question in simple terms, by making the currency based only on the labor and not by gold etc, the economy will lack the liquidity that is necessary to fulfil its role - to allow people to exchange labor and resources. The same dollar has to compete for somebody's labor and also for someone's gold.
This is essentially the opposite of printing too much currency. You are now printing too little currency and will result in deflation (instead of inflation)
“Only on labor…”
…and what if you are retired? Or injured. Or lazy but good at bartering and trade. What if you write poetry or draw or paint?
Who decides what labor is? Or how long something should take to produce (to get paid)? Sounds like a camel nose under the “control tent” to me.
Ahem…sorry to butt into your convo. I hadn’t heard this theory and (assuming I’m understanding correctly) it started up my noodle. Thx for the explanation.
btw, this comment was a continuation. You have to read the previous comment as well.
Thats my point. Did you read the full sentence?
Yes, t/u. Very interesting.
At the core, this is a sound idea, but not entirely correct. Currency, ultimately, represents something. What is it?
Its a deep question and if you keep pursuing all lines of thought, you will ultimately arrive at the answer "It represents the willingness of someone to perform a specific action for the currency".
If I have currency, someone might be willing to climb a tree and collect an apple for me. Or dig in the ground and mine a piece of gold for me. Or sit in a corner and write a poem for me.
Or, I could be willing to part with an apple from my existing stockpile, without doing much work at all.
Ultimately, the only thing of value on this planet is the ability for a person to perform a work that is desired by someone else, including exchanging a resource.
From this point of view, the currency issued for a certain period of time should represent the potential for all the people who are willing to perform some kind of work in a given period of time and the resources they already own are willing to exchange.
There problems with the quantifying it based on "industrial hour worked".
Firstly, it only accounts of "industrial work" which is a subset of all the work and hence only a subset of the currency that should be issued. Specifically, non industrial work, and willingness to exchange resources, are completely ignored.
Secondly, it does not differentiate between what commodity is being produced or how scarce the skill required for that industrial work is. So it does not take free market into account
Thirdly, it does not account of the resources already present.
But once you account for the value for all the people performing all kind of work, and the resources available, creating a currency based on this is a sound idea.
The only way new currency is added is when the population grows.
The sound economic equation is: Economic growth = Population growth.
When the economic growth is faster than the population growth, we have a fiat system where the equation is imbalanced, and the only way to correct it is to extract value from people by force. As in slavery.
Ephesians 3:20&21 Now to him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, according to the power at work within us, 21 to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever. Amen.
