TL;DR: a lot of the shit that scares people like the OP about the WEF is built on pipe dreams. Owning nothing and being happy is just a fanfic for a world where we’ve somehow solved all the world’s problems by replacing private ownership with a service model, and even if the human race could be sold on eating bugs, they’re still too fucking expensive to be worth it.

Oh yeah trust a Marxist. Screw you.
I hope Trump wins. I dont want a China Blackrock DEI society. Which is what WEF is. Its meant to undermine Democracy.
Marxist Cackling Harris i hope loses

Dude, I'm literally autistic and even I could tell immediately that shit like this is supposed to be facetious.

And on the off chance that anyone is interested, or if another sock comes back, that quote comes from this video (specifically at 01:02):





It's part of a larger spiel, one that starts with "Hi There! I'm Literally the Devil!" Which tells me that, since OrdinaryThings doesn't, as far as I know, identify as Satan IRL, he doesn't  approve of Glencore  or the Chinese Communist Party any more than you do.

Since when is a "docile society" something atheist want? Who wants you docile, the skpetic guy telling you to think critically or the priest telling you that subsmmission and absoulte obedience are virtues?

WTF is wrong with the recent spate of theist posters?

This guy comes on a forum loaded with atheist members, only to tell us what we believe.

Not only is that arrogant, but he is also claiming to be a mind reader, since he never asked us what we believe.

I wish the moderators would not ban some of these clowns so quickly, though.

You'd believe if you just opened your heart" is a terrible argument for religion. It's basically saying, "If you bias yourself enough, you can convince yourself that this is true." If religion were true, people wouldn't need faith to believe it -- it would be supported by good evidence.

This one wouldn't have been banned for theist views or even for being a jerk.

This one was banned for having multiple sock accounts.  We don't allow that and when we catch them at it, they are gone.

Thank you for your support.

It's a shitty hobby, good on you for dealing with it for the rest of us.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Some of you are quite informative and some quite entertaining and some are both.

It makes the rest worth it.
