Thanks, ModernMan1. Yes, I'm an old, long-awake pede, and my "hopium" comment was just referencing that there's necessarily room for interpretation of much that Q posted; "disinformation is necessary" and so on, combined with the need to adjust to the enemy's moves and other unpredictable events. But your comment is a good one; this IS a very special board with an intelligent, truth-seeking, and generally sane and civil community of interesting minds.
Yes, without 1000+ military bases around the world (Rome ruled their empire with roughly a tenth as many) the US will have to settle for being a free society with a government that doesn't meddle in the affairs of every other nation on Earth.
The meddling has always been sold as "compassionate" and "necessary" and sometimes there was an element of that in the plan of the moment, but even in the best cases much corruption seeped in -- and in most cases (wrecking Libya comes to mind as a particularly awful example) there really WAS no compassion or honest necessity involved.
What is WITH these people saying "I'm going to expose Biden / Hillary / whomever and provide evidence to put them in prison for decades!" and then -- what? waiting to see if they get suicided? -- before actually DOING what they say they're going to do.
Fission bombs are the "thermo" in "thermonuclear" fusion bombs.
I don't know the ratio of pure fission bombs versus fusion bombs in any given nation's arsenal. The small ones -- like "battlefield" mini-nukes -- are fission only, I presume, but I really don't know.
Good point, spookyjumper.
Although definitions vary, the following distinction seems useful to me:
Sociopaths are people with normal brains heavily traumatized early in life in particular ways; they have reduced empathy, little conscience, and carry a lot of anger. Some sociopaths are on the fence, as it were, and have a fair chance of regaining a more normal humanity or their souls, if you will.
Psychopaths are people with frontal-lobe deficits who are inherently unable to feel a strong (normal) sense of connection to others. They often have keen intellectual understanding of others (making them good predators) but live a life devoid of deep connection, which is akin to living in solitary confinement. MEANING is FEELING in human life, and the most important, bedrock feelings revolve around our connection to other life, especially other humans. In the absence of that connection, psychopaths gravitate to other goals such as wealth, celebrity, power over others, and typically show an exaggerated sense of their own importance.
Even psychopaths can benefit from a healthy, compassionate upbringing; in some cases, at least, it can create an adult who channels their energies in more healthy ways than they otherwise might.
A fascinating book about psychopaths, BY a psychopathic neuroscientist and professor, is The Psychopath Inside: A Neuroscientist's Personal Journey into the Dark Side of the Brain by James Fallon.
Good reminder that anyone paying attention or doing even a little of their own research knew that the "vaccine" wasn't necessary.
And who the Hell ever believed that NO EARLY TREATMENT was the way to handle a supposedly deadly disease?
"Just stay home and hope it gets better; if it doesn't, go to the Emergency Room." Where you get put on a ventilator and pumped full of Remdesivir.
I'll repeat my response to Light1SingleCandle above, because it fits here also:
Well, alright -- you have a point. I had to think about it for a minute because I've seen a number of people here and elsewhere talk about wanting to extend life as being an unnatural, even an unholy impulse . . . and the "Illuminati monsters want to have their youth forever" comment reminded me of that. But you're right, neither that nor the content of the video really demonizes the pursuit of health and youthfulness.
I over-reacted. Thanks for the comment.

Wanting to be youthful and healthy indefinitely isn't a crime . . . most people would prefer youth and good health to being elderly, infirm, and disease-ridden. Being youthful and healthy hurts no one else.
Likewise, most of us would prefer to be wealthy or at least comfortably well-off, as opposed to poverty-stricken and hungry. Having enough money to satisfy one's needs and even one's healthy desires also hurts no one else.
The problem comes when a person has no qualms about HOW they go about obtaining what they want.
Earning honest money is good (business people serve their fellow human beings, when all transactions are honest and voluntary). Theft and fraud are bad.
Taking care of one's health is good -- for those around you as well; it makes you less likely to become a burden on others, for one thing. Forcing or defrauding people by stealing their blood or other biologicals (as opposed to buying from informed adults and adolescents -- as with blood banks -- for instance) is bad.
Yes, adrenochrome is evil -- because it requires terrifying an almost-certainly enslaved or kidnapped person nearly (or completely) to death. But there are plenty of things we can do to slow aging and extend our years of good health, and demonizing that is a problem.
Gets the point across well. Solid meme.

Insightful and thought-provoking commentary as usual, bubble_bursts. I certainly agree that the demolition and simultaneous (or near-simultaneous) replacement of the Cabal financial system -- without throwing millions of responsible, decent people into abject poverty -- is a hat-trick that needs rock-solid planning and precision timing. I'm still a ways from believing it can be pulled off, but . . . hopeful.
It's not just how the kids respond to HIM.
To me, it's always telling how HE responds to not only children, but to disaster victims, to people who are grieving, to the weak and infirm and injured.
Whatever else you can say about Donald Trump, I believe he's a decent human being. There are damn few people in public life who I feel that way about.
"I identify as black!"
"Trans-black people are REAL black people!"
"Discrimination against the trans-black must be criminalized, with heavy penalties!"
Also: The medical industry would like to announce "black-affirming surgery" and other "black-affirming medical care" for those racial-transitioning to Black.
Woke-world is like a board game of insanity.
