"On Tyranny" is a #1 NYT bestseller again. I wish the moment were different. But I’m glad the book is useful. And grateful for all the kind words about putting the 20 lessons to work.

When taking the full party political spectrum from far left to far right communism, Nazism, fascism, democrats, liberals, classical liberals, republicans, conservatives, libertarianism.
The outright lie is that Nazism is on the far right it isn't it's libertarianism.
Lie through omissions is 2/
The lie by omission is that they BGBT omit the word socialism from the title political party spectrum the truth that the Nazis are on the far right of the socialist party political spectrum in where the commies are on the far left and the SPPS is the far left of the larger political party spectrum

Russa turn to bigger the govt types aka communist on the believe that the comy wanted to protect the poor and less fortunate and the commies then starved mordered and work camped 10's of millions of them 2/
China turned to the bigger the govt types aka commies on the idea they were to protect the students and poor and the same happened to them as what happened in the USSR

Over the past 20 years, Paris has undergone a major physical transformation, trading automotive arteries for bike lanes, adding green spaces and eliminating 50,000 parking spaces.
Part of the payoff has been invisible — in the air itself.
Paris said au revoir to cars. Air pollution maps reveal a dramatic change.
Air pollution fell substantially as the city restricted car traffic and made way for parks and bike lanes.
All of Europe can fit I to Ontario Canada or New York state and Pennsylvania and they have the nearly the same number of people so comparing Europe cities to anywhere in North America is like comparing apples to squid

Not a single word to help the 33m small businesses in this country. Not from anyone in the administration.
So many buy from China, and don't have alternatives.
So many didn't have the cash to front run the tariffs and buy inventory
Soon the prices are going to drop due to these other countries eliminating their tariffs on the USA like Vietnam who had a 95% tariff on US goods and now don't because of Trump. Prices in Vietnam didn't go up or small business didn't fold due their high tariffs

According to data from 2012, the top 10% of income earners earned 45% of all income and paid 70% of all federal income taxes.
A more recent Treasury study found that the rich pay more than one-third of their annual income in federal taxes and more than 45% when state and local taxes are included.
Now that's income not their wealth although if they were to pay taxes on their wealth they would have to sell the shares of the companies they own and that would cause the share prices to drop and the poor who have 401k's would lose more money than the govt would pay out in services or cash dumb ass

Feeling represents one's conscious acceptance or rejection of what we know to be true.
When we have feelings about what's been said it's because deep down we know what's been said has or is true. The conflict isn't with the speaker it's between the conscious self and that deep down part of ourselve
I am voting no on the CR. Trump and Musk are taking a wrecking ball to vital services for veterans, seniors and kids. I will not support a bill that helps them do it. I will support a clean 30 day CR.

The USA is a constitutional republic not a democracy. Difference between the two
Democracy;
one vote, one count. The majority always win, leading to govt tyranny
Constitutional republic;
Equal representation of small states has equal power to a larger state, tyrannical parties can be formed

So acting like a fascist is your way of dealing with individuals like yourself. I watched this interview with a murderer and the first time he was in jail it was due to someone turning him in the second time because of him murdering that individual I was wondering why he 1/
As I was watching this interview I was thinking by the murdered own logical ideology the next logical step was the murderer taking his own life and due to your logic the next step is to delete your own membership on this app.
Well caring deeply about politics turned out to be a mistake. Time to instead become emotionally invested in a field where I’ll never be let down: sports

Being kind does not mean being passive or avoiding conflict;(which women do) rather, it involves caring about others and helping them grow.
On the other hand, naivety can lead to being easily taken advantage (which women are) of because of an inability to discern harmful situations.

1 billion × 8.5% = $8.5 million
Citizen who earns $30,000 pays $2,280
So a billionaire pays the equivalent of 3,728 individuals taxes.
This in addition to hiring the same citizens

There's a difference between kindness and naivety. Females that get taken advantage of think they are kind when they are actual naivete. Just like a nice guy is actually a asshole aka a wolf in sheep's clothing.
So all those desert loving animals that live in the deserts die because the environment they live in has been changed.

The truth never changes a lie never stays the same. When more information about a topic comes to light the understanding of truth becomes more apparent. While the lie has to come up with another explanation so that the original lie doesn't get exposed

Teach your children boys or girls that if they have a negative feeling brought on by what bullies do or say it's because deep down they know there's truth to what's been said and that that feeling is good as it shows there's an area in their life they need to fix or come to accept about themselves

More less fortunate individuals that will be murdered, starved or incarcerated when the bigger the better govt types have no opposition.

All govt employee names need to be public and so does their work assessment evaluation also need to be public. Only one problem govt workers are never evaluated on their work performance.
