  • How do I know they are being genuine with me? If they aren't genuine, do I need to mask or can I be my free self without them judging me? What would they think of me if I went full, raw self? I could never, they would see how much garbage can imitate a person. I need to be the person they want to talk to instead of me. How do I know they are being genuine with me?

  • Trump's FCC chief opens investigation into NPR and PBS
  • NPR and PBS receive single digit funding from federal funding. They would be better suited to remain that way and having the freedom to continue publishing their own content than go private and be steered by profit minded board members. Going private opens them up to a hostile takeover. Remaining public gives them more freedom.

  • What's a Jehovah's Witness?
    • they believe it's every believers duty to give people opportunity to repent hence going door to door (I think they've stopped doing this now) or standing on the street offering their standard magazine "Awake"

    They still go door to door and the newsletter is called The Watchtower.

    And to clarify the very specific 144000 number: that's made of up 12k people from the original 12 tribes of Israel. When I pointed out that I wasn't Jewish so does it mean I don't get to go to heaven, they clarified that it was 11 tribes and one "lost tribe" that allows non-jews eligibility. "So only twelve thousand get into heaven, out of about 9 billion?" They agreed that it's the gospel and many people weren't good enough Christians. I asked how many Jehovah's Witnesses there were. They left after they figured out I was going to ask questions that exposed their awkward answers.

    Jehovah's Witnesses are one of the only cults that tell people that they most likely aren't going into heaven for believing and giving your life to a religion. And don't even insinuate that better Christians might appear in the future and take their places in heaven. The end will happen before new Christians have a chance to prove how good they are.

    JW are super petty and very mean to even their own. It's all passive aggressive and it's constant.

  • Yep
  • It isn't about race. It's about making sure that all perspectives are taken into account when making a decision. That's it. The think tanks against it are against having rules put upon them. Removing DEI is the same as stripping out market regulation.
