The Critical Point @thecriticalpoint.bsky.social · 08/10/2026I'm sure we differ. Are you aware of Plato's Ship of State? If you believe that logic is racist then we differ on that too. 100
The Critical Point @thecriticalpoint.bsky.social · 08/10/2026We probably disagree on the wisdom and importance of everything in a constitution written by white slave owners. 100
The Critical Point @thecriticalpoint.bsky.social · 08/10/2026Qualified voters; like qualified drivers. We have to pass a basic exam to drive a basic car. If I want to drive an 18-wheeler, I need to pass another exam. If we choose not to learn, we can't drive and no one cries foul. Ignorance is a temporary problem. 110
The Critical Point @thecriticalpoint.bsky.social · 08/10/2026Another brave woman of color. Just sayin'. 180
The Critical Point @thecriticalpoint.bsky.social · 08/10/2026This is why I don't believe every person should have the right to vote on every issue. The consequences are too severe. 130
The Critical Point @thecriticalpoint.bsky.social · 26/09/2026It could have been any other language in the world, but it was Chinese. Remember that. 000
The Critical Point @thecriticalpoint.bsky.social · 09/09/2026By then it will be 20 yrs since the 2008 Crash caused by greedy Wall Street bank bosses. Only one was ever arrested. The rest got bailed out. Rememer that when you vote. 001
The Critical Point @thecriticalpoint.bsky.social · 09/09/2026But let's keep kidnapping poor and working-class people and getting angry at the hungry guy stealing yogurt because that's not fair to the rest of us. 000
The Critical Point @thecriticalpoint.bsky.social · 05/09/2026There are now more greedy criminal billionaires than any other time in civilization and millions still believe poor and working-class people are ruining the world. 141
The Critical Point @thecriticalpoint.bsky.social · 02/09/2026It's a simple yet profound question. Do all humans deserve a life of dignity? 100
The Critical Point @thecriticalpoint.bsky.social · 30/08/2026The average establishment Democrat would be considered conservative in most of Europe where medical bankruptcy and crushing student loans don't exist. Remember that the next time you worry we're becoming too progressive. 020
The Critical Point @thecriticalpoint.bsky.social · 26/08/2026I must have missed a memo. I thought it was Satan? 000
The Critical Point @thecriticalpoint.bsky.social · 26/08/2026There are more greedy, criminal billionaires now than any other time in civilization yet millions still believe poor and working-class people are ruining the world. 010
The Critical Point @thecriticalpoint.bsky.social · 24/08/2026Around the world, millions are realizing Capitalism is a money cult. Drumph is just the flavor of the month but countries are realizing they're too dependent on the high priest. 010
The Critical Point @thecriticalpoint.bsky.social · 22/08/2026Reminder: Each society applies pressure to conform to norms and roles. They are options not laws. You're under no obligation to be the same person you were 5 minutes ago. Life is not a dress rehearsal. Make it count. #thecriticalpoint #socialjustice #philosophy #art 000
The Critical Point @thecriticalpoint.bsky.social · 14/08/2026Exactly. If I convince you that me ideas are better, and then they dominate for decades but produce the opposite results I promised, isn't the main problem my ideas? 000
The Critical Point @thecriticalpoint.bsky.social · 11/08/2026With all due respect to the others that I also follow, it's not even close. 000

The Critical Point @thecriticalpoint.bsky.social · 05/08/2026In Spain, for example, a university degree costs $1k-2k per year. In the US, education has been turned into a commodity by greedy, immoral gangster capitalists: leaders of the millions of unaware followers of the money cult. It doesn't have to be this way. Agitate, agitate, agitate. 010
The Critical Point @thecriticalpoint.bsky.social · 05/08/2026Too far left? Most democrats in the US would be considered right-wing in Europe where healthcare, education, and gun safety are considered human rights. Remember that the next time you think we're becoming too "progressive". 010
The Critical Point @thecriticalpoint.bsky.social · 04/08/2026Thank you Sir! I'm sure you know this list will grow as red states continue to turn blue. 011
The Critical Point @thecriticalpoint.bsky.social · 04/08/2026It would. Unless millions are unaware followers of the worldwide money cult; in which case it would be expected, wouldn't it? 000
The Critical Point @thecriticalpoint.bsky.social · 04/08/2026IMHO, it's the ripples; it's always about the ripples. 000
The Critical Point @thecriticalpoint.bsky.social · 03/08/2026Fearing "capital flight" is like fearing 19th century slave owners will leave their plantations. Is it much of a threat when greedy, immoral, gangster capitalists stop exploiting and abusing people? 010
The Critical Point @thecriticalpoint.bsky.social · 03/08/2026Is the issue about "distribution of wealth", or the millions of unaware leaders and followers of a money cult who are indoctrinated to believe making as much money as fast as possible is the default way to live a life? 000
The Critical Point @thecriticalpoint.bsky.social · 01/08/2026What if that danger goes undetected when millions of unaware followers of the money cult believe more money is always the better option? 020
The Critical Point @thecriticalpoint.bsky.social · 01/08/2026Not the US. The current administration of the US. There's a difference. 000
The Critical Point @thecriticalpoint.bsky.social · 31/07/2026More high priests in the worldwide money cult. 000
The Critical Point @thecriticalpoint.bsky.social · 30/07/2026And the mythical "Free Market" continues in the money cult. 000
The Critical Point @thecriticalpoint.bsky.social · 30/07/2026And if you have an hour or so, you can do this at the library while sitting in a nice, quiet spot. 000
The Critical Point @thecriticalpoint.bsky.social · 29/07/2026Time for a three-illogical-statement strikes and you're out law. 000
The Critical Point @thecriticalpoint.bsky.social · 28/07/2026Sending out mountain vibes; cheaper than therapy. ##thecriticalpoint #hiking #mountain #nature 020
The Critical Point @thecriticalpoint.bsky.social · 23/07/2026And, to continue with the animal metaphors, the elephant in the room is that millions of inhabitants of the hen house are unaware followers of the money cult and have been brainwashed to worship the fox. 010
The Critical Point @thecriticalpoint.bsky.social · 23/07/2026If their devil were real, his best trick is convincing believers their god and heaven are real. Evangelicals believe if their god forgives a "sin", it literally alters reality like it never happened. 000
The Critical Point @thecriticalpoint.bsky.social · 23/07/2026Why should my tax dollars support people who spend beyond their means and make bad financial decisions? Oh wait, it's the DoD. Never mind they deserve more money! #nokings #thecriticalpoint #fdt share.google/v3JZORrjTPtm...share.googlePentagon running low on funds as costs of Iran war rack upDefense Secretary Pete Hegseth will testify in front of the Senate today on why the Pentagon needs $67 billion more for the war with Iran. 010
The Critical Point @thecriticalpoint.bsky.social · 19/07/2026You are spot on and this issue goes back to the beginning of most, but not all, civilizations. Some cultures are matriarchal; not better or worse but worth acknowledging the difference. 000
The Critical Point @thecriticalpoint.bsky.social · 19/07/2026And many unaware followers of the money cult will think this to be a sign of success, a natural occurrence in an inevitable so-called free market. Record breaking always means good right? 000
The Critical Point @thecriticalpoint.bsky.social · 18/07/2026Been studying memory for 40+ years. When we remember something, we're really just remembering the last time we thought of that event. Like photocopying something 1000 times, each time is slightly different. We're not recalling the original event. Hope that makes sense. Happens to me all the time. 010
The Critical Point @thecriticalpoint.bsky.social · 18/07/2026¡Vamos España! Only because I want to see the Mango Maggot hand the trophie to the country he called a "terrible partner" because they wouldn't help him kill more girls in a grade school. 050
The Critical Point @thecriticalpoint.bsky.social · 18/07/2026And they'll say because they "truly" felt something, that must be proof their god is real. No darling, that's called religious psychosis. 20%-60% of people experiencing delusional episodes report religious or mystical content per the RCP. It's not supernatural. It's a known, treatable condition. 001
The Critical Point @thecriticalpoint.bsky.social · 18/07/2026Just an idea: it would be cool if you added those to an addendum and invited readers to "close the case"; sort of a hive-mind solution. 110
The Critical Point @thecriticalpoint.bsky.social · 17/07/2026The idea that laws can be written assuming "ethical norms" and "common decency" would be followed was always naive. The former president of South Korea is serving 30 years in prison for doing much less than this administration. Reality check much? 000
The Critical Point @thecriticalpoint.bsky.social · 16/07/2026Trump called the president of Argentina his "favorite president" and the president of Spain a "terrible partner" so yeah, Let's Go Spain! 020
The Critical Point @thecriticalpoint.bsky.social · 16/07/2026What we now know about this criminal regime will seem like a parking ticket compared to what will be uncovered through investigations. But it has to be dismantled first. LFG USA! I still love you. 031
