New rule: posting one of the Golden Verses of Pythagoras each Monday.
"First, worship the Immortal Gods, as they are established and ordained by the Law."
Por eso mismo no se le hace caso a las encuestas.
So tuviésemos un sistema parlamentario, como muchos quisieron en su momento, tendríamos un país absolutamente paralizado. Los gobiernos no pasarían de 3 meses.
Somos una sociedad bipolar; Piñera llegó al 6% de aprobación, se pedía a gritos su renuncia y terminó con un funeral de Prócer de la República.

Pluto and Bacchus
Lord Pluto, because he's often portrayed in popular culture as a villain.
Lord Bacchus, because he's interpreted as only the God of drunkenness rather than of Divine ecstasy, mysticism, and liberation of the Soul.
The answer to this should be a firm "No."
It's your thing, and it's not even a proper fast. You guys stuff yourselves before sunrise and after sunset.
Dear non-Muslims,
As Ramadan is just 92 days away,
Please avoid eating in front of Muslims who are fasting.
Please avoid drinking in their presence.
Do not deliberately tempt those observing the fast.
Muslims will be fasting from dawn until sunset.
A little consideration and respect go a long way. ❤️🌙
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Non-Muslims are not required to avoid eating or drinking near those who are fasting. Guides and many Muslims say the fast is a personal obligation; normal eating by non-Muslims is fine; not eating in front of others is an optional courtesy, but is not obligatory.

I do kind of appreciate Red-Green going mask-off.
BREAKING: Jean-Luc Mélenchon, leader of France’s largest far-left party and currently polling second in the presidential race, has promised to launch an all-out war against Israel to “liberate Palestine” if elected president, saying he is even prepared to send warships.
Some of Mélenchon’s past statements include claiming that only an alliance between progressives and Muslims against Christians could bring about a socialist revolution in the West. He has also claimed that Christian women are oppressed while Islam liberates women.
These people are literally insane. Never again believe that the left is pro-peace or opposed to war.
No wonder the ideology of Islamo-leftism was born in France. This man is a prime example of it.

Lo que impacta del ódio visceral que sienten por Kast es que no hay forma de explicarlo.
Kast es y ha sido un conservador moderado, incluso amarillo. No propone nada ni dice nada que no hubiese sido sentido común hace 15 o 25 años.
🔹Tienen espasmos por las noches fantaseando en como cresta sacar a Kast del poder.
Aunque la crisis sea en otro país, todo les sirve, buscan cualquier subterfugio para relacionarlo con el presidente y con Chile.
Están desesperados, lastima que les quedan más de 3 años que aguantar ⏳

Christians, and Christian sympathizing intellectuals, like the historian Tom Holland, often argue that Christianity (and the Judeo-Chrisrian tradition more broadly, when they are feeling generous) first proposed the idea that God is Good, that there's such a thing as good and evil, that God cares for the poor and the weak, that he condemns the wicked.
Nothing could be further from truth, and the first piece of evidence we have from the historical record comes from the Code of Hammurabi.
In his prologue, Hammurabi tells us:
"Then Anu and Bel called by name me, Hammurabi, the exalted prince, who feared God, to bring about the rule of righteousness in the land, to destroy the wicked and the evil-doers; so that the strong should not harm the weak; so that I should rule over the black-headed people like Shamash, and enlighten the land, to further the well-being of mankind."

"Imagine if the roles were reversed" has never been a winning strategy for the right.
Appealing to moral sentiments works to sway people from the right and center to vote left because they have them.
Leftists don't. They are conscious and willing hypocrites. And they don't care.
LET’S FLIP THE SCRIPT.
Imagine an Orthodox Jewish Republican winning a Senate seat and delivering his victory speech.
Imagine a large portion of his speech revolving around his Jewish identity, his name, his faith, and how everyone who opposed him underestimated him.
Imagine him opening with Hebrew expressions:
“Until now, I’ve been saying Im yirtzeh Hashem, G-d willing. But tonight, it’s Baruch Hashem, praise be to G-d!
And for the left-wing ops sitting over there, that’s what it means. Okay?”
Imagine him calling his opponents the “left-wing ops,” telling children watching that “the bad guys lost,” and turning to a Democrat president:
“Achi! Isn’t it delicious irony that you’re constitutionally obligated to swear me in? Wolverine one, Buckeye zero!”
Now imagine him turning to his defeated opponent, Abdul El-Sayed:
“Abdul! Enjoy your retirement! I hear you and your wife have properties in Dubai and Bangalore. Well, what are you waiting for? You’ve got somewhere else to go! Pick one! You chose hate; we chose hope. And may we never have to see the likes of you in this country again!”
Imagine the crowd roaring.
Now, honestly, how far would THAT fly if the senator-elect were Jewish?
Would the media celebrate it as a hilarious victory speech? Would people applaud the religious mockery, the political taunting, and telling an American-born political opponent to leave his own country?
Or would they suddenly find it arrogant, divisive and disgraceful?

Correction: Islam has terrorized Western civilization for 1400 years.
These are JD Vance's solutions for America (he wrote this today)
Let me explain these simple, and seemingly common sense platitudes with what they really mean
1) Cede control of the Middle East and the world's energy to China, Russia and Iran...what could possibly go wrong in the long term!
2) Leverage populism to pretend that you're really on the side of the common person when Democrats are 100X better at doing communism
3) Does JD realize that this brand is now basically owned by the Groypers? Or that it represented a pro-Nazi political movement pre-WW2?
4) Blaming the Jews is the world's most effective and longstanding conspiracy theory...and it's the most intellectually dishonest framing of the problem
Islamists terrorized Western Civilization for over a decade and want to establish a caliphate...but Jews are the real problem!? Grow up
If you thought this blue Tsunami wasn't enough punishment for conservatives, then wait until you see what the JD Vance coalition has to offer

This is true and accurate.
But no politician, ever, has felt the incentive to moderate based on this.
And, tbh, voters are lying to themselves when they withhold a vote or vote against a candidate.
A vote is a vote. The only thing that matters is the brute fact.
No politician is going to even think "Max only voted for me because he thought the other candidates sucked."
He is, quite rightly, going to say "thank you for voting for me."
The Left is the US would do well not to gloat too much or cry, "Mandate!" You are not winning. Trump is simply losing. May seem semantic. but he is not being defeated by better ideas from the left. He is facing a rebellion from his election coalition on the right and center.

This is gonna be the whole Democratic Party by 2028.
It's the new ultimate cause of the International Left.
Leftists know instinctively that there's no other cause more anti-Western and anti-American.
Supporters of Senator-elect Abdul El-Sayed chanted “Free, free Palestine!” outside his victory party early Wednesday, turning the post-election celebration into a pro-Palestinian demonstration.

Honestly, I wouldn't catastrophize as much.
Now that Foreign Aid to Israel will be off the table, the discussion will turn to more practical foreign policy reasons for continued US support, which often bore the public, so it shouldn't be as polarizing.
However, poll results show that being pro or anti-Israel doesn't move the Jewish American vote. They vote along more typical ideological lines, and it's likely that the GOP will stop chasing a vote they're never going to get and which doesn't really move the needle.
Now, of course, American living standards are not going to take a massive jump just because foreign aid to Israel gets cut off. And with Trump's tariffs, the decline is likely to continue as prices increase.
So it will be interesting to see how the usual suspects on the right continue to blame Israel and the Jews for America's bad economic policies.
Even as welfare spending continues to balloon and tariffs make everything more expensive.
Here is what will happen for American Jews:
-The election results mean antisemitic dog whistles win and there will be more of it
-Jews either assimilate even more or form shtetls with our own security
-Shtetls turn to ghettos as we all flee to either Florida or Israel
-Eventually even the last holdout of Florida will turn on us too and we will all end up making aliyah
Hope I’m wrong but reading the writing on the walls, it looks like this is the direction we are heading.

As long as he keeps Vance and the rest of the pro-Iran wing in his cabinet, there's no chance of winning that war.
One obvious point is that Iran’s strategy worked (to an extent).
By hitting the global oil and derivative markets, causing an inflationary spike, they almost certainly indirectly influenced the midterms (although you’d be a fool to suggest that was the only factor at play).
That gives us a likely indicator of how they will respond to further rounds of attacks.
The difference will be that Trump is now unfettered by any electoral concerns, so from his point of view, inflation be damned. How far will he be willing to go and will Congress be able to handcuff him? Lots of variables today, while materiel continues to pour into the Middle East.

Leftists will literally take the side of your enemies and sell out your country rather than ally with a moderate conservative.
Blackpill moment.
I don’t know why I feel like saying this, and I’ll probably delete it, but I’ll just say it: Gadi Eisenkot seeking to become Israeli prime minister through an alliance with parties that refuse to call Hamas a terrorist organization is a disgrace. It is sickening. It is one of the most shameless things I have heard of in any political campaign, in any country, ever.
