BEST AND WORST SLOGAN?...
====================

Nicholas Goldberg described MAGA as both one of the worst campaign slogans ever and "a fabulous campaign slogan", writing:

💬 "It was vague enough to appeal to optimists generally, while leaving plenty of room for bitter and resentful voters to conclude that we were finally going back to the days when they ran the world."

1998 first usage?
Author Octavia E. Butler used "Make America Great Again" as the presidential campaign slogan for the dictator Andrew Steele Jarret in her 1998 dystopian novel, Parable of the Talents.

1980 commercial usage:
Originally used by Ronald Reagan as a campaign slogan in his 1980 presidential campaign (Let's Make America Great Again)

The same negative / luke-warm patterns (never going to swim but talking about it all the time).

People who twist what someone says or label them too early are also more to blame than anyone else try to explaining and stay in conversation longer towards understanding and providing more information than less.

I'm talking genuine people.

At the end people need to accept they might be different (as basic as that seems, that seems to be needed to remind people) and keep finding better focus like hopping on better stones together. Not just OMG you're still using Windows... so I can't talk to you. Find out why even but do move on...

People tend to find land-mines and step on them almost like self-baiting themselves without realising THAT is the big problem.
🏃‍♂️ 🏃‍♀️
🏃‍♂️ 🏃‍♀️
🏃‍♂️ 🏃‍♀️

More is better I think in terms of info / trying (and learning to filter / cherry pick comes with it in time as well as those controlling themselves if too unleashed)

Less writing is only going to rear it's head later possibly and at the worst point in time if communication isn't practised to understood / balanced in each other.

✅ People are consistently not very good
but
☑️ if you are the one focussing on the better things then it almost doesn't matter people are not very good above a certain communication standard because you continue a healthy ping pong and get better - that's all !

☑️ It's usually the others if they are negative and unconstructive / destructive.

Fediverse could be more caring of people as a "system" but isn't yet since existing people also are not orientated that way (at least online) and also a bit flakey let's say and can't do / trust much... like being afraid of one's own shadow 👥 or imperfections.

So Mastodon is great - it is a step UP from "just another" "system" and better without advertising etc. But needs the people directly involved also to save Mastodon in a way when it has no money...

Next level is the caring by admins supporting users to do their own things they like EVEN MORE

As a circular economy in many senses - creativity / allowing creative ways to promote ourselves / encouraging finances for servers / advertising like-minded project just like Mastodon (like Invidious) and beyond....

If we don't we kind of naturally die out or need Venture Crapitalism...

Systems cut out human sides like their attributes / creative sides of people / interaction between them.

Since systems tend to be more robotic or digital driven (1 or 0 on screens, devices etc), they tend to be virtual and less human? ?

More systems = less directly human ways ?

#Answers Accepting "imperfection" in any system accepts humans are imperfect.

Systems tend to be mechanical or digital driven so in any system this tends to cut out humans almost completely (unless you allow it as part of "bringing back humanity" into work like extra communication, creativity etc).

Accepting creativity / difference in speech / language etc mean on has to almost allow everything while keeping the main things going (not finding and policing smaller problems all the time).

(Stealing etc is still bad so not that but I mean other real stuff.)

Non-genuine stuff yes you can police and cut out - but genuine people being different - this needs to be accepted and incorporated always in any 'system' that tends to be robotic / non-human.

More systems = less humanity ?

"Keyboard Christian" - A term I have coined for people that work on and with computers only - not much effort otherwise.

A regularly disappointing in the religious sense of claiming they are Christian without getting anything together or progress of the human kind.

Sub-notes:
1. Usually good computer coders.

2. Might even know their religion quite well but essentially can't put it into practice since talking with humans is always different / imperfect

3. They fall into faults finding instead of accepting humans and human communication is not perfect (not like computers as one way or as clear / perfect robotic syntax and grammar according to what they like).

@freemo Hi can you turn on searching own posts from the search box ? #QOTO

@hazlin
Maybe was a bit unclear but taking point from each paragraph can see I was saying you're a lot like others.
Non-players. Talk but no action or interaction. Low level ability.

What walls?

Strange?

( Possibly because strange is when you are not familiar or scared? )

Rude language?

You're just creating things in between instead of pushing through for something better taking it actually somewhere.

What kind of Christian are you?

What isn't working?
Communication that only just started? Give me a break.

You're totally being like the quick-to-run-away people and not pushing any positives.
Such a time-waster.

We haven't even started and you're like "this isn't working for me". . . .

I have to wonder what would *ever* work for you. Pure excuses and pointing to nothing and then running. That is typical.

It's not even a put down, it's like not-very-strong, circular, ill inward people. What to do with people like that. Time wasters.

Guess I tried and you got some good answers.

You'd need 10 lifetimes probably to actually do 1 thing (do let me know if you are trying things as I don't see it).

The term "Keyboard Christian" is born now (or the long line of yous doing not much / not even able to try or hold conversation)

Finding family? My ass - we are increasingly starting alone and with people like you getting more alone by the second.

Good luck is ofen said from those that canNOT try properly.
You win.

That's all the points in order.

Counter the points or go waste time pretending elsewhere.

That wraps this weak stuff. Do better with the next one that gives you time to see if you have any aims in life!

@stevefoerster @bookstodon I did haha !
So by your logic of needing my example - now go buy it!

Don't make it too personal - you either appreciate the author that much over the years or you don't or can say it's for 3 books or ave $1 a week and buy it next year - whatever works for you.

I also think people that could pay $30 easily almost always have easy money to pay more, it's just hard to part with it.

You judge yourself and consider I did already me. Now you do you and consider buying whenever / ask as a part-present from family whatever! Don't make me look for evidence why you can pay it and prove it to you. Acting on my own words should already be enough proof I mean what I said and you can find a way over time if nothing. But excuses will win probably so just let me know and quote my amazon code #IMALLTALK - Oh no I take it back you're a teacher, I concede.

Also the previous picture could have seemed harsh but was a very quick fun thing. Text more the priority but anyway forget about this book now. Harry Turtledove pah! 🌬️ And he's still alive... how dare he exist and be great, the drop out.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harry_Turtledove

@hazlin First instincts

➡️ it sounds like you are like the others in reply - some points but finding problems more than of working on positives

That's the TL;DR - you might not need to read more if you agree with that... read it again

Below just explains it but I think I might stop explaining soon because

➡️ nothing like yea let's do it is there / "ok let's test it" / ok I'm not sure but...

so while allowing a warm up time here and now - just saying you're maybe the same as them - but a bit better in some other things like communication, some principles...

➡️ and at end almost made up some reason based on me talking a lot more and finding / tying it together... fun... eating cake... becoming an ideal... Nothing that springs to life positive.

That might be a case of being around uncreative people too long and not being able to test things.

And if you don't do practically, you die (Christianity inculded though yes no need panic about that) and so that's in our religon / practise, in y/our biology that acting is to grow not just save because if you don't grow a bit it stagnates and gets cancer / "our work" helps stop the killing by others in understanding or even physically etc... so you become the same in not doing and also allowing further dying (of brain cells or physically which is similar), although you are more well said, perhaps even too polite to save people (with their consent or however you feel ok about this) AND turning my words as answering fun to enjoy understanding and yes even some healing or just anything other than capitalism also.
It seems you went off there on a tangent.

Through our being I think we should allow ourselves with measurable safety (including each other and being transparent on the net) to do.

No ultimatum here but I strongly suggest you have enough theory side, and don't get stuck in it.

Further theorising again over this if it sounded good at the start has questions on your side that "even if it was agreeable would I even do it or just virtualise some previous reasons"

Unwanted Loneliness also from your actions (Ubuntu works in reverse https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ubuntu_philosophy)

Because many Christians might feel lonely from others who seem to sound like you also with "who are you to heal / to say / to do / empty your life / need others in this saving way" etc etc and our innate / embedded being and existence already covers the why for each other (or go back to Capitalism for "not needing anyone:") and ONLY we need getting better at doing rather than feeling something about people trying.

By your way it's "what's next?" - "what did they syuggest"... "nothing much"... oh ok then...

Getting better is part of the main idea (people do that themselves WITH others - paradoxically as that is - we are limited alone healing / understanding things).

Tell me you already know this or don't pretend !

Consider the people who are alone or who closed themselves are not just the result of their own principles not wanting friends but that it's usually with totally ignorant others (everywhere) as a lot of the population not being aligned and insisting not to learn - meaning you can't blame any loner and expect them to fake around ignorant others to get some attention from such extreme amplitude of ignorance in all parts of their life or yours)

Sounds like you're not for trying / seeing positives or found some other experiences or templates to put me in as if I haven't written quite a lot to say otherwise "I'm kind of ok!".

I think you could say to yourself "well actually this is mostly not the typical average volume or type of Christian or they are a different kind of person so let us try something here first without me judging too much more...".

Fun means too many things and you put that there not me ad twisted it. Do the good work or find endless excuses I think is about right - without sounding as ultimatum but a lot said so you also put yourself out of the game without testing and stuck in too much text.

All those phrases are nice, but just checking things you're not sure of as you go rather than stopping things totally at the begging is better. Good gosh embrace it all a bit more yes yes without being all you said!

If you're a loner and don't see the point or joy in others (cake as you falsely compare it too) then write than in your bio. Christians and general should stay active while keeping things in check THEY CAN'T NOT DO THINGS MOSTLY - THAT'S HOW WE GO HERE.

Forgive me if your doing plenty.

@stevefoerster @bookstodon Have to say something you might not like but you have the chance to show how much you love those books.

Because that comment sounds very paradoxical - consider you say you love the books (more than one) inferring perhaps by that the consistent quality of the authors other books you'd like to see continue, and have got happiness elsewhere from same author) and you say you will happily pay... but for 50 of your cheaper-by-the-day bucks means you question it in comparison to that all?
Surely it's worth much more to you and wouldn't be going to a bad place even if it turned out to be a flop for you...
So I call you out nicely here (reminds me of not paying for software I've actually been using for YEARS and still thinking it's too much to give them but this might be different)

I really think you're being cheap here in your love and happiness for so long (divide by years it you have to) and actually should pay right now if there is a chance author gets a % of that and barring reservations for paying on Amazon then just get it there or elsewhere ➡️ now!

I feel like I'm on a mission to get good people recognised and even some money for what they do / already invested themselves and probably didn't get paid fully in whole yet compared to the time / risk / others involved etc !

Said with love for authors / good / truthful / talented people! And respect for you...

I think the fact that people like this exist, and yet we have to choose between people like Trump and Biden demonstrates just how corrupt a system we live in. We don’t choose who is elected, we just choose between two pawns that ultimately have no interest in honesty whatsoever.

#Money #Question

What do you do when every decision is money-based or heavily decided on a monetary basis?

✅ Talking about it is good as if you're willing to solve it.

✅ Start enriching your life together with the right people

(can you find anyone on Fediverse?)...

When "money" is a tool for extraction, you must predict the same crap is happening and instead at least start on enriching your life together with the right people- RIGHT NOW!...
