you have to get a tad serious if you interested. you must understand society, have an idea of the human story..where we come from, who and how we are, what we live in, how we make a living in it, who make that living and the process of it..evolution and social change and development tied into facile scientific/technological advance and how that impacts life and facilitates life changes as we go along.

you have to arks yuhself what is basic religion or nature. and we don have to answer that yes or no. we simply have to deal with what is first and so live while we deal with all else as we can

you not there yet..you doh understand! hold yourself open until you get the idea then accept or reject or proceed n the development of your knowledge and decide at some future point. but it is the conditions around you too eh. life is working out and you have to live. it is what happening here that is decisive relative to all things

for eg you believe in capitalism..but by capitalist ideology, the way capitalism functions, the purpose of capitalism is to make profits for the capitalists.

by the functioning of capitalism the circle of capitalists must end in concentration and monopoly..all the money in few hands few hands ..the few hands that then elongate a social control that imprisons everybody...much of what we now have and concentrating further every day as the global human prison grows. that is what our friend in the thought for the day is describing.

that is why they say there are no good outcomes for the people in capitalism..only a prison at the end of it. that is why every day such as Trudeau reduces the freedom of the Canada in small ways that will eventually mean total control.

but you don't see that..refuse to see it. and in the process you do not see the potential of popular control..that it will outstrip by huge margins whatever capitalism has achieved so far

you have to see the history of all of them..into the one story of humanity to figure what are the principles we operate under that drives live and where we are now and what is needed now for us to survive.

we look at our story or experience from day one to shows us what we must do...there-in lies the lessons we need to know,,truth..the how and why of things,,why we behave the way we do.,what is the human. you dismiss something like human selfishness for example but what is it?

human selfishness..is SUBJECTIVITY! the condition of our minds and perspective..to try to make a long story shorter...no one can live outside their experience..what you know is who you are and what you can do. if you don't know you cant do what your don't know. therefore what drives your subjective mind?

whatever you need to survive routinely is what you are focus on..must be focused on. if you are not you wont make and so not survive. so your subjective is disciplined by those basic needs. you work for someone or live in the jungle same thing. you have to make it. if you work for someone you must keep your job..you do whatever that entails. that shapes and disciplines your life..work the work that you do and its social needs.. the boss needs you to work but he cant pay you your value..he pays you less so he rips you off. and to do that he puts a government in place that orders you to live in ways you call democratic but it is really organized to protect the guy who employs you

he pays the government too...he buys them out do that he can exploit you..they sell you out do they can get lots of money. they do not work in jobs that produce wealth..you do. they are parasites then living off you and the boss. he pays them off the books..you pay them on the books by taxes....

you get the drift...see how that continues to develop all the way to this day and you are likely to get what i am driving at

and as you do that you will come to the importance and relevance of what the Greets did in their time..how it relates to us right how and is important because it proves the point we make..the point of direct democracy...it is not crazy from out of left field. when humanity was faces with similar crisis like we are currently that is one of the ways the people responded and it worked

how many times did that happen in life, in history and what were the conditions that gave rise to such risings? what does that mean for society going forward in our own day and crisis?

Well most people live under a Structure
regardless of doctrines
History has shown us that most failed !
we can be complimentary of the empires and civilisations built around the ancient ones

and then we come to present day and inheriting chaos ~

SerenaThis batting performance by the West Indies in the second innings blew me away. I kept closing my eyes and then rubbing and opening them again and sat transfixed as I watch that unbelievable partnership between John Campbell and Shai Hope. What a magnificent performance by these two! It just goes to show that patience, determination and effort can go a long way to improve the performances of the West Indies team. Let us hope that this effort by West Indies batsmen would not be a one-off performance, but will be the beginning of a renewed effort to improve the performances of the team, going forward.(13.10.2025, 10:28)(10:28)0

WarrenJameis Winston is asked about being named QB3 on the Giants' roster behind Russell Wilson and Jaxson Dart:

"As a competitor, you want to be the starter. But I prepare to be the starter, I know I'm a starter in this league.

But you have to be able to be grateful for your role...my role right now is to assist Russ and Jaxson to be the best that they can be while preparing to be the best that I can be.

No matter if I'm 3, 33, this is my first year being number 19, so it's always a first for everything.

I focus on what I would love. And what I would love is for this team to have success."

ChristinaIt is time for a full evaluation and accountability to the people of this region for the disastrous batting performance of the West Indies Cricket Team.
