Definitely don’t ever underestimate how quickly lack of sleep can mess you up mentally and physically.
Inflicting sleep deprivation on a person is widely recognized as a form of torture by human rights organizations as well as the UN.
You mean the fact that the biggest initial source of support the Nazis got was from the emerging business class who were scared of the rising influence of labor unions? Can’t imagine why that gets pushed under the bed.
Not like we had that nearly happen here in the US or anything though. Just don’t look into the Business Plot or that many of the Jan 6thers turned out to be small business tyrants…
Just remember that the most dangerous Nazis aren’t the skinheads on the corner but the ones on Wall Street.
90% of his advice is pretty much just boilerplate self help stuff you can find in thousands of books on Amazon. That stuff gets you in the door and is meant to develop a sense of trust because you might see initial improvement and feel good from the advice.
It’s when he does the rug pull and starts introducing trad nonsense into it that determines how willing a person is to keep following through on listening to him.
Like you mentioned, this is an extremely common tactic used by religious leaders as well as cults. Back in the mid 20th century when the whole self help craze started, many cults took to framing themselves as self help groups to attract outsiders. NXIVM is probably the most infamous example of this. The first few meetings should seem like a normal support group but would soon start ramping up into full on cult mode.
Asking if I misword something? I’m saying insurance companies are being actively complicit on this ongoing fascist movement by denying trans people coverage to HRT.
I guess my Florida based insurance provider dropping coverage for my HRT is “just a strawman” turns out
And this is nothing new at all for Apple. I still remember how infuriating it was having to deal with iTunes for moving files to and from my iPod Touch. Jailbreaking so I didn’t have to deal with iTunes was such a relief
Android obviously having no issues with you just having direct access to the file system makes it so much easier
“Well, there was a bit of a stir when it was decided that since corporations are people, they could technically run for president. But President Walt Disney-Pepsi-Comcast has done wonders for the economy… given that it’s… now the economy”
I’ve known a number of self labeled “liberals” that basically think being progressive means simply not being openly racist and restraining from yelling slurs on a street corner.
Surprise surprise it turns out they were just closet bigots who were aware what crowds they could get away with expressing their horrid views with and in the recent years figured street corners are now perfectly up for grabs.
The best marks are the overconfident ones who think they will be able to out scam the scammers. They are the ones who will gladly dump their life savings into shitty ape pngs thinking they will be the one to make it big.
If a “good boss” is being an actual good boss, the worst they should have to expect from the union is having the occasional friendly meeting with them to discuss any minor workplace concerns and contract negotiations.
The fact many “good bosses” immediately start sprewing hell and brimstone at the mention of a union hints maybe they ain’t as good and benevolent as they claim to be.
The Lowes near me you can rent a whole truck for like $20 + gas

People are so unaware how common politically motivated murder was in the late 19th/early 20th century in the US. Our country is rittled with shallow graves belonging to labor and civil rights activists. Wikipedia for example has a list documenting anti-labor murders totaling just over 1100 that we know of. Much of that violence was especially targeted towards black labor organizers.
Suspiciously Tram Shaped General Motors: All of these tram lines wouldn’t have disappeared if people liked them! Clearly people just hate public transport so buy our cars!
