Welcome to General Chat - GAW Community Area
This General Chat area started off as a place for people to talk about things that are off topic, however it has quickly evolved into a community and has become an integral part of the GAW experience for many of us.
Based on its evolving needs and plenty of user feedback, we are trying to bring some order and institute some rules. Please make sure you read these rules and participate in the spirit of this community.
Rules for General Chat
-
Be respectful to each other. This is of utmost importance, and comments may be removed if deemed not respectful.
-
Avoid long drawn out arguments. This should be a place to relax, not to waste your time needlessly.
-
Personal anecdotes, puzzles, cute pics/clips - everything welcome
-
Please do not spam at the top level. If you have a lot to post each day, try and post them all together in one top level comment
-
Try keep things light. If you are bringing in deep stuff, try not to go overboard.
-
Things that are clearly on-topic for this board should be posted as a separate post and not here (except if you are new and still getting the feel of this place)
-
If you find people violating these rules, deport them rather than start a argument here.
-
Feel free to give feedback as these rules are expected to keep evolving
In short, imagine this thread to be a local community hall where we all gather and chat daily. Please be respectful to others in the same way

TECHNATE MAP The North American part will be one of the 10 Kingdoms in
Rev.17:12 “The ten horns which you saw are ten kings who have received no kingdom as yet, but they receive authority for one hour as kings with the beast. 13 These are of one mind, and they will give their power and authority to the beast. 14 These will make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb will overcome them, for He is Lord of lords and King of kings; and those who are with Him are called, chosen, and faithful.”
When you see this map you will understand why Pres. Trumps wants Greenland, Panama & Venezuela.

of America is a 1940 map created by Technocracy, Inc., a movement founded by engineer Howard Scott in 1933, which envisioned a continental entity governed by a technically skilled, non-partisan elite rather than traditional political or economic systems. The map depicts a vast "Technate" stretching from Greenland westward to the International Date Line and southward to include the Caribbean, parts of Colombia, Venezuela, and the Guyanas, forming a self-sustaining, resource-rich region. This territory is colored red, the semi-official color of the Technocracy movement, symbolizing its ideological identity.
The map features small circular symbols indicating "Defense Bases" strategically located at key points around the perimeter, including Attu, Pago Pago, Cape Farewell (Newfoundland), Georgetown (Guyana), Pearl Harbor, the Galapagos, Bermuda, and St. John’s (Newfoundland). The proposal was rooted in the economic anxieties of the Great Depression and advocated for the abolition of the "price system" and the replacement of representative government with a technocratic model based on energy accounting and scientific management. Howard Scott, the movement’s leader, argued that the United States should immediately acquire these territories—through purchase, negotiation, or force—to ensure the defense and operation of the Technate.
The movement gained traction in the 1930s but declined during World War II, particularly after Canada proscribed the organization in 1943 due to its perceived subversive nature and isolationist stance. Notably, Joshua Haldeman, Elon Musk’s maternal grandfather, was a prominent member of the movement and was arrested in Canada before relocating to South Africa. The map remains a rare artifact, with only a few known copies, and is preserved in collections such as Cornell University Library and Boston Rare Maps. The Technocracy movement continues to exist today, though its influence has significantly diminished.

I hypothesized that someone from the Carnegie Institute for peace knew this map maker and had him make it up.
Things are getting 'BIBLICAL' 🤔😮
