I like Raoul Pal, and what he brings to the crypto space, BUT I just can't have him take credit for the "Banana Zone" comment when it's purely theft from literally the nicest guy there ever was in crypto Carter Thomas ... AND (for the record!) IT'S BANANA TOWN!!!!!!

Let's be honest WhatsApp is turning into "Western WeChat", next they'll be offering CBDC's and connecting your passport details. It's the WEF dream remember? "you'll all have nothing and you'll like it!"

Perhaps they can publish exactly what happened? That article seems to expose that the chain was exploited, and the developers just deny deny deny. www.infosec.pro/2021/11/20/u...

Ndiaye's injury while playing for Everton in the derby is going to rank up there in lists of bizarre injuries for a long time. Still don't think it'll beat getting out of bed and stepping on a 3 pin plug, but I just can't remember who did that ... help appreciated 🙂

The guy blocked the original comment, so I dug it up just for you—for context. I explained it in the alt text, since you are practicing "adult".

His statement assumes all Black candidates have overcome hardship while all white candidates have had it easy. That ignores individual circumstances. There are Black candidates from privileged backgrounds and white candidates from poverty. Assuming a Black candidate is automatically “more qualified” because of their race is not only inaccurate but also condescending.

He uses the word "them" collectively, and strips individuals of their uniqueness, reducing them to their racial identity. That’s ironically the very racism he claims to oppose. True equality means assessing people on merit, not predetermined assumptions about their struggles. Not all Black individuals face oppression the same way, just as not all white individuals benefit from privilege.

What’s even more troubling is the virtue-signaling behind this belief. Favoring a Black candidate over a white one based purely on race does not create fairness—it reinforces discrimination under a different name. If equality is the goal, why should hiring decisions be based on race at all? Shouldn’t the most qualified person get the job based on skill, experience, and merit rather than performative “positive discrimination” that only deepens racial divisions?

There’s also historical irony here. As a Jewish person (the same as the interviewer in the Morgan Freeman interview), he should understand the dangers of being treated as a collective rather than an individual. Jews have faced systemic discrimination but overcame it through resilience and self-determination, not mandated favoritism. So why apply the same flawed collectivist thinking to Black individuals—or any group?

By insisting race determines qualification, he places himself in a savior role, deciding which group is “oppressed” and deserving of special treatment. This reinforces the very hierarchy he claims to oppose. True equality means removing race from the equation altogether, not inserting it under a different pretense.

The amount of pigeonholed people in here is doing my nut in, absolutely indoctrinated to follow the herd based upon being red/blue, left/right, democrat/republican, it's literally a mirror image of the other place. It's like watching wild animals see their reflections.

Let's be clear, you are being played, red/blue, left/right, you think you have a choice, but these are two sides of the same coin. If you want change, decentralisation is the way forward! Govt and (centralised) tech have been in bed together FOREVER!

Accept uncertainty—it’s okay not to have answers yet. Clarity takes time and action. Be kind to yourself during this exploration phase. Taking imperfect action, even when unsure, often reveals what you value or enjoy most. Just start somewhere and adjust as you go.

Create a routine for stability. Start your day meaningfully—exercise, meditate, or read. Dedicate focused time for work or learning. Use techniques like Pomodoro to stay productive. A routine adds structure, making it easier to stay consistent and motivated.

Set small goals if long-term ones feel unclear. Examples: wake up at the same time daily, spend 15 minutes learning something new, or work on a small project for 30 minutes. Celebrate these wins; they build momentum. Short-term achievements lead to clarity and motivation over time.
