  • Conspiracy theories are an outlet. People need a reason for why society is not as good as they feel it could be.

    Most people blame the other political party. But that doesn't work for everybody. The mind keeps looking until it finds a reason, and then it fades out all arguments that oppose it.

    We laugh about conspiracy theorists, but most have the same mindset, just with socially acceptable topics.

  • Matthew 5:34-37

    34 But I tell you, do not swear an oath at all: either by heaven, for it is God’s throne; 35 or by the earth, for it is his footstool; or by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the Great King. 36 And do not swear by your head, for you cannot make even one hair white or black. 37 All you need to say is simply ‘Yes’ or ‘No’; anything beyond this comes from the evil one

    So who introduced the oath of secrecy?

  • Thanks again.

    they put absolutely minimal work into it

    I don't believe this. The small shareholders do, but not the ones who choose the board.

    The Waltons have to stay up to date unless they accept that Amazon takes over. Likewise, Bezos will work to keep his company in the lead.

    Bezos bought a big house in Washington, not Florida. He will be busy all day most of the days.

  • Thanks for the insights. I thought it was only Stalin who decided to collectivice the farming.

    With stocks for instance the owners typically arent involved in the operation

    Those are not the real owners but people who rent money.

    There are always shareholders who control the board and who make the ultimate decisions. They decide when they want to meet but nevertheless I don't think that they do much more than managing their companies which includes networking. So even when they don't work, they will be 'on'. No pity, they are rewarded more than enough.

  • I should have looked it up before. I don't remember my original source.

    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_Civil_War

    The red army had 6 million out of 280 million citizens of the USSR. So it's a bit more.

    and often the company does worse when the owners get involved

    How long do those companies exist? If owners just skim, I would expect most companies to dissolve sooner than later.

  • All foreign fruit being very scarce and people standing in long lines to get it, while the ones in the back knew they probably aren’t getting any today? Also westerners’ fault.

    Do you know the history of the united fruit company? That one could be correct.

  • What's the reason? Does this come from a different pain tolerance or do women like pain? And if women in general like pain, why?

    From my experience, hot water keeps me focussed on the shower and allows me to relax while I shower less hot if I want to just quickly get clean.

    Could it be that it is not so much the pain but that men in general don't like the shower taking their focus?

  • My point is that the Capitalists manage the rate at which workers learn about the left point of view so that the chance of them reaching a ctitical mass for change is very low.
