I thought that thread title was a great quote in the context.

How Jordan thinks.
At 16 min and 22 min, "what is thinking"
At 23:23 min "the rules"
At 30 min "will you stake your life on it"
At 34 min "heirarchy" and "corruption", "values" .. inference and confusion, and why it matters
..victimhood..sacrifice..meaning
..Why "the media" doesn't seem to care about the truth..
..How divided is the USA (in 2018), really...and why?
52:40 social media platforms effect on elections.
...online persona "reality" vs reality
..hugely important "news" items that people care about for 10 minutes..
"News isn't news"

Nothing new under the sun

Oh man.. if I was just joining the forum now I would name myself Sovereign Individual.

Had to mark it political, so I hope you are an open minded person who didn't block "politics"

Hey, do you agree that everything is political? I mean it is all affected in some form or another. You can't really separate it. Perhaps people use the word political wrong.

Guys, I'm at 21 minutes of the video. There is very little of interest in it to me.

Thats the reason I put a few indicators of what to expect at certain minute marks. 22 min being one of the 1st points.

Her name is "Reality Winner" .. actual name. Her last name is original, but she changed her first name legally.

When she was charged, she told her mom over the phone (paraphrasing), "I'm a cute young blond girl, so I should have no problem getting off."

She was of the belief that she had white privilege. She learned very quickly that she is neither cute, nor privileged.
