Donald Trump has ended many wars and deserves the Nobel Peace Prize more than anyone who has ever received it. "I have saved more lives than anyone in history and, as María Corina Machado, a truly admirable person, stated in front of the media when she handed me her Nobel Prize from last year: 'Donald Trump has ended many wars and deserves the Nobel Peace Prize more than anyone who has ever received it.' Given my record of peace, a record that no one else has ever achieved, I agree!" he declared. #Trump #NobelDeLaPaz #NaviPillay (translated)

Grâce à leur combat, l’épave a été retrouvée et le secret-défense partiellement levé. Elles ont le droit de savoir. Nous resterons avec elles. https://t.co/oqmf6JfoJF #Caravelle #JusticePourLesFamilles #Vérité #FR #IT

SAFONOV 🇷🇺 EST DEVENU VRAIMENT AMOU-REUX DE LA VILLE DE PARIS 🗼 (c’est devenu LE VRAI PARISIEN 😁) 👇 : « LE CAFÉ ☕️ EST DEVENU UN RITUEL. À mon arrivée en France 🇫🇷, je ne buvais que des allongés avec beaucoup de lait. Aujourd’hui, je savoure mon expresso ou mon lungo, tranquillement. 😁 (…) Si vous aimez L’ART 🖼️ et la découverte, vous trouverez forcément VOTRE BONHEUR ici. C’est UNE VILLE MAGNIFIQUE que j’adore. 🤩 Dès que j’ai une soirée de libre, je cherche une nouvelle exposition ou une activité intéressante à faire. J’apprécie énormément cette dimension culturelle à Paris. Je suis quelqu’un de très curieux et ouvert d’esprit. Mes passions sont très éclectiques. C’est aussi pour cela que j’aime cette ville : elle offre absolument TOUT. Une qui m’a marquée c’est celle consacrée à Jacques-Louis David, le peintre de « Bonaparte franchissant le Grand-Saint-Bernard ». J’ai trouvé son parcours de vie fascinant. C’était un révolutionnaire qui avait des convictions fortes et qui était prêt à mettre sa carrière en jeu pour ses idées. C’est admirable, j’ai un immense respect pour cela. C’est difficile d’exprimer pleinement mes émotions en français, mais son œuvre m’a beaucoup touché… 🥹 Mon monument préféré, c’est l’Arc de Triomphe. 🏛️ Je l’ai aperçu pour la première fois le jour de la signature de mon contrat. J’étais à l’arrière d’un van, les yeux rivés sur mon téléphone, et lorsque j’ai levé la tête, je l’ai vu. C’était tout simplement MAGNIFIQUE. J’ai immédiatement été frappé par sa grandeur et sa majesté. Depuis ce jour, pour moi, Paris est indissociable de l’Arc de Triomphe. 😍 Je n’habite pas loin et c’est devenu un repère rassurant. Au printemps, j’adore monter au sommet. La vue verticale sur la ville, avec les arbres et les avenues qui s’élancent en ligne droite de tous les côtés, es incroyable. Pour moi, c’est la plus belle place de Paris. (…) Pour être un authentique Parisien, il faudrait que je commence à boire du vin. 🍷 Mais avec le rythme des matchs, c’est impossible… Je me dois de rester d’un professionnalisme irréprochable ! 😁 » 🎙️ Le Parisien #Paris #Culture #Voyage

Sensaciones sobre la salida de Zilli? Muchas. En principio distinguir entre jugadores estratégicos y jugadores carismáticos. Evidentemente ella se encuadra en el segundo ya que por mas esfuerzos que hizo para entender el juego siempre fue su personalidad la que la salvó de las placas. Mas allá de todas las adversidades, Yanina demostró durante su larga estadía una posición diferente a las demás: la NO queja. La ex vedette se dedicó a disfrutar x completo de la experiencia #granhermano sin acercarse ni una vez al confesionario a exigir o a llorar la carta. En una mujer de su edad es admirable. Hoy parece ser injusto que alguien que nunca salió de la casa y que estaba de retirada tenga que competir con alguien que entró a mitad de certamen, carga apellido, y está super vigente. También es cierto que estamos pisando la final y el cuello de botella disfraza de injusticia lo que es inevitable: quien tiene mas fandom gana y quien no, pierde. Aun asi para YZ el quinto puesto es ganancia absoluta porque le permite volver a las pistas a alguien que hizo de la tv, su modo de vida💙 Ampliaremos. #GranHermano #RealityShow #Televisión

🔴🔴 Luka Modric : « Cristiano Ronaldo est incroyable. C’est un phénomène, un monstre, et je n’ai aucun doute sur le fait qu’il atteindra les 1000 buts. Tout ce qu’il a accompli, tout ce qu’il continue de faire et sa manière de se battre en donnant tout à chaque match, c’est admirable. J’ai une affection particulière pour lui après tout ce que nous avons vécu et remporté ensemble au Real Madrid. » #CristianoRonaldo #LukaModric #Football

Why Weak Societies Choose Tyranny The pinnacle of tyranny would be a system that allows politicians, elites, and bureaucrats to control a population without force or coercion because the people love their servitude. Aldous Huxley wrote Brave New World, an eerily relatable dystopian novel, with this idea at the forefront. Unlike Orwell’s 1984, there is no overt oppression. The state does not have to stamp on human faces with its jackboots or erect an inescapable surveillance state. Rather, the people of Brave New World happily chain themselves with meaningless pleasure and distractions. The authorities do not rule through terror and rage, the central elements of 1984, but instead give the people everything they ever wanted. A pharmaceutical called Soma becomes the opiate of the masses. Mustapha Mond, the World Controller, likens it to Christianity without tears. While religion requires years of moral training, Soma allows citizens to achieve peace simply by swallowing tablets. It is the perfect escape from reality, a holiday from the facts. Lenina, the female counterpart to the protagonist Bernard, cannot comprehend why he refuses Soma, preferring discomfort to something that can remove it. When Bernard states, “I’d rather be myself, myself and nasty, not somebody else, however jolly,” Lenina sees this as a sort of pathology and repeatedly encourages him to take the wonder drug. Bernard explains, “I want to know what passion is.” He understands that there is more to life than merely being content, craving genuine experience, including suffering and intensity, rather than being emotionally regulated by the World State. Lenina’s bewilderment stems from her conditioning to regard unhappiness as a technical problem, encapsulated in the society’s common saying that “a gram is better than a damn.” The people of Brave New World are not captives but satisfied customers. Children are produced by the scientific state, relieving people of the responsibility of parenthood. This grants them the ability to engage in promiscuity, where everyone belongs to everyone else, while filling their free time with cheap entertainment and endless sporting events—what would be referred to as slop today. As Neil Postman observed, Orwell saw totalitarianism through the lens of fear, while Huxley saw it through pleasure. There was no need to ban a book in Brave New Worldbecause there was no one who wanted to read one. An abundance of low-quality information rendered censorship unnecessary because no one could hear the truth through all the noise. Huxley threw shade at civil libertarians who passionately opposed tyranny because they failed to take into account man’s almost infinite appetite for distractions. Humanity in its rawest form is portrayed by John the Savage, an outsider free from the World State’s conditioning. Upon coming face-to-face with this spiritually neutered society, he completely rejects it: “I don’t want comfort, I want God, I want poetry, I want real danger, I want freedom, I want goodness, I want sin.” Huxley’s dystopia is not imposed on an unwilling population but instead requested by a hollow one. Which leads us to the question: How do people become so weak that they get on their knees and beg for totalitarianism? Good times make bad times possible. Once a certain level of luxury and safety is achieved, people start to resemble the hobbits from the Shire. They are so far removed from evil that they forget it even exists and become defenseless in the face of it. Andrew Lobaczewski, who studied the psychology of totalitarianism from inside Poland’s communist takeover, wrote: “During good times, people progressively lose sight of the need for profound reflection. They lose the capacity to differentiate human nature, and emotion begins to dominate intellect. Once a critical mass starts operating on the pleasure principle, any excess mental effort seems like pointless labor.” Lobaczewski warned that it is not as simple as some people losing the ability to think rationally. It is worse, because those people then shame anyone capable of doing so. A clever, liberal, and merry individual is a good sport. A more far-sighted person predicting dire results becomes a wet blanket, a killjoy. The ability to have uncomfortable conversations without emotion taking over is, in Lobaczewski’s view, an indicator of whether a society’s future will be good or bad. It is easier to think about pleasant things. This leads people to eliminate any data or facts that cause them discomfort. That becomes a habit and eventually a custom accepted by society at large. Once the general populace accepts that inconvenient truths should be left unsaid, it becomes incapable of reaching correct conclusions. After all, how could you ever describe a picture that you refuse to look at? “Catastrophe waits in the wings of the communities that lose the capacity for psychological reason and moral criticism,” Lobaczewski wrote. “It is on the other side of this weakening of thought that the processes of the generation of evil are intensified at every social scale until they give rise to bad times.” It is precisely man’s dreams of happiness that can lead to chaos and suffering. This hedonistic view of happiness contains the seeds of misery, feeding the eternal cycle whereby good times give birth to bad times. Friedrich Nietzsche viewed socialism as demanding comfort for the greatest number of people possible. To question whether it is good for the masses to live in comfort has become a form of heresy. This reveals the spiritual atrophy that so many suffer from. Considering only the weak believe comfort to be a virtue, it is what Carl Jung would describe as the infantile dream state of mass dependency: the desire to gently slip back into the kingdom of childhood, into the paradise of parental care. Except this lack of friction has consequences. The perfect state destroys the soil in which great intellect grows. Genius, struggle, passion, strength, and wisdom are required to build a safe and abundant society. Yet once a certain level of comfort is achieved, it can destroy the very virtues required to obtain it. Nietzsche observed that it is the warmest heart that aims to alleviate suffering and hardship but fails to realize that it thereby wills the destruction of its own foundation. Comfort breeds mediocrity, which is then called good. Small people want one thing above all: that no one hurt them. We have taken this pathology to such a degree that we now obsess over hurt feelings and call this virtue. Pleasure, in its proper place, is a byproduct of meaningful goals, not a goal in itself. Aristotle saw that pleasure and comfort distort perception and proper judgment. While they do not cause us to misjudge something like geometry or mathematics, they can destroy our ability to decide what is worth pursuing and, therefore, what to do. Consider The Odyssey. Homer depicts Odysseus’ men on the island of the Lotus-Eaters, where they taste the fruit and lose all desire to go home. Much like Huxley’s Brave New World, they are not imprisoned. Rather, they simply stop wanting anything more. Odysseus has to drag his men back to the ships while they weep to stay. This is what comfort can do to men. It empties them of purpose. We intuitively understand this but fail to apply it to our own lives. We must make the same choice as Odysseus when he refuses Calypso’s offer of endless comfort and immortality. He knows she is more beautiful than his wife Penelope waiting at home. He knows that he and Penelope will grow old and die, a fate he could avoid by staying with Calypso. No one who reads these stories wishes he had stayed. We want him to choose the hard way home because if he took the offer, he would stop being admirable. Yet staying is exactly what our modern society asks of us. We are told that the island is the good life. But what happens to the man who caves to this temptation? In Thus Spoke Zarathustra, Nietzsche imagines a risk-averse society taken to its logical endpoint. The elimination of all struggle produces a man so diminished that he fails to possess even self-contempt or higher aspiration. Safety and sameness become the highest goals, creating “no shepherd in one herd.” Anyone who seeks to be anything more than normal becomes an aberration to be dealt with. Or, as Nietzsche puts it, they have “made the wolf a dog in man himself, man’s best domestic animal.”

¡Buenas noticias! El #IFNiebla ya está CONTROLADO. Los trabajos de extinción final siguen avanzando. La labor del @Plan_INFOCA ante uno de los incendios forestales más complejos es admirable. Han salvado vidas y casas, y han evitado que se propagase mucho más. GRACIAS. https://t.co/VM67nouTHi #IFNiebla #incendios #Plan_INFOCA #ES

Quiero decir una cosa porque ya me están dando. Porqué creo que Sol no tiene que ganar? Salió cuando quiso volvió cuando quiso y no se la sancionó con la misma vara que a otros. Dio info de afuera, hizo complot, etc. Hasta se dio un tour por México en medio del certamen. Que lo gane una de las que aguantó 6 meses sin abrazar a sus seres queridos ni tener info, una de las que soportó hambre incertidumbre y juego. Uno empatiza o no empatiza con un jugador, compra o no compra y no tiene que ver con moralina el juego es juego y al show lo amamos. Eso no es odiar, no me interesa odiar ni tendría porqué, es una persona que no conozco. Sol tiene un montón de cosas admirables, es hermosa es inteligente, simplemente no quiero que ella se lleve el trofeo, lo merecen más cualquiera de las otras finalistas. Dicho esto, no avalo los agravios denigrantes que leo hacia ella, ni que le tiren con lo del ex ni que insulten a su hija ni que la traten den trol*. Pero... que se vacha ES AHORA. Perdón por escribir largo pero me gusta expresarme 😅 SOL AL 9009 #RealityShow #Competencia #Empatía
