Many so called “leaders” have never shot a single shot their entire life’s. And what’s equally important: they have never been shot at. They hardly had to handle a law suit, a company in distress or the press or the government coming after them. They are soft. They are weak. They aren’t used to stress, they aren’t used to consequences. They don’t know what fighting, loosing and winning mean. Contrast that to a leader who has taken on the entire establishment and won. The fools won’t stand a chance. #power #fight #streetsmart #tough #leaders
My grandfather, a politician, never failed an election. He had a way of talking to pple as if they had been friends for a long time.
I learned from him to do that systematically, particularly w/disfavored communities.
But I've never repressed my urge to irritate arrogant fucks.
Men function on a raw meritocracy.
The best hunter gets the spear, or everyone starves.
Women function on coercive redistribution.
They use force to make sure their younger and weaker children get food.
This is why when women gain political power, you get socialism/communism.
@Javimarenas The Catholic Church at the birth of Luther and certainly under Alexander VI, Julius II and Leo X was anti Christian, demonic, evil, rotten and dark.
Luther was the flame that the church needed to heal itself.
The lesson we can all learn from Hunter Biden is that people forgive when you’re authentic.
No one is telling him what to say, he’s just being unhinged and honest which has been refreshingly hilarious
Instead of Hunter being the joke, he’s cracking them and taking back the narrative.
The lesson here? Comedic relief fixes more than you realize, it allows people to empathize and forgive.
Make a joke about your shortcomings, and you’ll move past them. People will most likely laugh with you instead of at you.
Alle deutschen Milliardäre zusammen besitzen rund 750 Mrd. €.
Selbst bei ihrer vollständigen Enteignung könnte man nicht einmal ein Jahr den deutschen Sozialstaats finanzieren.
Die Frage ist nicht, wie man Vermögen einmalig verteilt, sondern wie man es langfristig vermehrt.
I see your profile picture. That’s Johnny Cash. My hero too. Arrested seven times. Smuggled 668 amphetamines across the Mexican border in 1965. Took every drug there was and drank like I did. Cheated on his first wife. Slept with more woman than I ever did. Hit bottom in a cave in Tennessee in 1968 trying to crawl off and die. And then he got up. He got clean. He spent the rest of his life singing for prisoners and addicts and the people the country threw away because he knew he was one of them.
That was the whole point of the Man in Black. He wore it for the poor and the beaten down. He wore it for the prisoner who has long paid for his crime. He wore it for the ones who never heard a word of Jesus. He wore it for the addicted and the dying. He wore it as a standing witness that no one is past saving.
You picked his picture. You did not pick his message. Try listening to the words.
Noch 4 bis 6 Monate dürfte es dauern… dann hat auch der letzte Michel begriffen, dass in der #BRD ohne eine funktionierende Wirtschaft NICHTS läuft.
Weder Umweltschutz, noch Sozialleistungen, noch Entwicklungshilfe.
Dann wird es interessant.

Peter Thiel on Why You Must Build a Cult:
"In the most intense kind of organization, members hang out only with other members.
They ignore their families and abandon the outside world. In exchange, they experience strong feelings of belonging, and maybe get access to esoteric 'truths' denied to ordinary people.
We have a word for such organizations: cults. Cultures of total dedication look crazy from the outside, partly because the most notorious cults were homicidal: Jim Jones and Charles Manson did not make good exits.
But entrepreneurs should take cultures of extreme dedication seriously. Is a lukewarm attitude to one’s work a sign of mental health?
Is a merely professional attitude the only sane approach?
The extreme opposite of a cult is a consulting firm like Accenture: not only does it lack a distinctive mission of its own, but individual consultants are regularly dropping in and out of companies to which they have no long-term connection whatsoever...
The best startups might be considered slightly less extreme kinds of cults. The biggest difference is that cults tend to be fanatically wrong about something important.
People at a successful startup are fanatically right about something those outside it have missed.
You're not going to learn those kinds of secrets from consultants, and you don’t need to worry if your company doesn’t make sense to conventional professionals.
Better to be called a cult—or even a mafia."
Strange numbers.
Here's how much Pres. Biden's presidential library has raised compared to previous 6 Presidents:
Biden: ONLY $4m (goal was $200m to $300m)
Obama: $1.5B to $1.6B
George W. Bush: $500m +
Clinton: $165m
George H.W. Bush: $43m
Reagan: $57-$60m
Carter: $26m (In 1981)
How does the most popular president of all with 81m+ votes in 2024 only get $4m from his supporter to build his library?
Makes you wonder.
Connecting young people to digital networks serves no purpose if they remain disconnected from themselves, others, and their own interiority. We must help young people rediscover silence, reflection, the ability to ask questions, the depth of relationships, and openness to transcendence. To listen to the soul, we must lend an ear, because the soul's voice is not a shout, but a whisper.
50 000 Poles showed up at the main square in Kraków’s Old Town last week to celebrate the promotion of their team Wisla Krakow to the first league.
They cleaned up the square before going home, leaving no garbage behind.

Wolfgang Kubicki ist genau das, was es braucht. Seine Ansage an die Strafanzeigen Agnes ist göttlich. Sie kann ja ihre eigene Partei für Rüstung, Krieg, Verbote, Steuern und Gängelei aufmachen. TSCHÜSS!!!
Ich glaube wirklich, dass @KubickiWo ein Hoffnungsträger für alle frustrierten Bürgerlichen sein kann
Aber mit diesem Gemetzel wird das rein gar nichts
Mein Gott: Gewonnen ist gewonnen
Mit so einer Streiterei wird es nichts mit dem Wiederaufstieg
