Next time a stranger at a bar asks if you're a patriot, do not say yes.
Chase Hughes walks through a hypothetical recruitment, and it starts with someone telling you he loves your podcast and then asking whether you'd consider yourself a patriot. That first yes is what he builds everything else on - your identity.
Next he asks if you'd be willing to look at something that might be uncomfortable. Then he shows you your browsing history and webcam captures from your phones and computers, offers to keep it all out of the public eye, and puts $20,000 a month on the table. All you have to do is keep a few people off the show and leave a few things out, for your country.
What gets me is that the protection covers more than your reputation. It also hands you a story you can live with, where every concession counts as service.
"They don't build influencers. They find the ones who are already successful and recruit them."
Apparently the benefits package includes getting to keep calling yourself independent.
So be honest, has anybody here ever been approached with an indecent proposal?
Our history books tell us the evil Germans wanted to exterminate people and sought war. That’s just more jewish propaganda… they saw a threat and a reaction set in.
AFTER YEARS OF DROUGHT, IRAN’S SKIES OPEN. COINCIDENCE OR CLIMATE WAR?
For decades, much of Iran has faced severe drought, dry farmland, and shrinking water supplies. Now, areas that struggled for generations are seeing rain and snow at levels not recorded in more than 60 years.
The timing has raised questions. The shift followed a strike on a UAE weather-modification and cloud-seeding facility. If the region has technology that can influence precipitation, who controls it, and how has it been used?
Was this simply a natural weather cycle turning in Iran’s favor? Or was outside interference involved all along?
Were the U.S., Israel, and other adversaries using weather technology to block rain and snow, deepen Iran’s drought, and pressure its people?
The rain returned. The questions have not.
@WodenWanderer I used to think women's rights made sense and now I'm just like, get these bitches a husband and get them back in line now. 3 or 4 of them to one guy and go home now! Shut up and listen. Have a baby and Keep yourself occupied with a chore list
