  • I actually think it’s pretty simple and not even that sinister, although I do think you need to have certain undesirable, in my opinion, character traits.

    I’ll preface this by stating I know nothing about this stuff, I’m a software developer.

    These people, for the most part, come from money so I doubt that’s ever the goal. Like I said it’s power. To your other point about thinking they’re better than us, I think they do and mainly because when you get this much wealth and power you’re surrounded by yes men.

    So take someone like Harvey Weinstein; people don’t go from 0-100 in the crazy shit to do scale. But imagine you’re surrounded by yes men, so you do something at level 3 on the weirdness/creepy scale and nobody challenges you and it becomes the new baseline. Now you escalate to something at level 7 on the scale and so this goes unchallenged and the new baseline. After a while you get people doing and getting away with the craziest shit.

    I think this applies to people like Elon Musk, Russel Brand, Trump, and many other folk who seek out power or an audience.










  • Here is the draft proposed.

    Draft of the Israel-Hamas ceasefire deal

    PHASE 1: (42 Days)

    • Hamas releases 33 hostages, including female civilians and soldiers, children and civilians over 50
    • Israel releases 30 Palestinian prisoners for each civilian hostage and 50 for each female soldier
    • Halt to fighting, Israeli forces move out of populated areas to the edges of the Gaza Strip
    • Displaced Palestinians begin returning home, more aid enters the strip

    PHASE 2: (42 Days)

    • Declaration of “sustainable calm”
    • Hamas frees remaining male hostages (soldiers and civilians) in exchange for a yet-to-be-negotiated number of Palestinian prisoners and a full withdrawal of Israeli troops from the Gaza Strip.

    PHASE 3:

    • Bodies of deceased Israeli hostages exchanged for bodies of deceased Palestinian fighters
    • Implementation of a reconstruction plan in Gaza
    • Border crossings for movement in and out of Gaza are reopened
