Western "democracy" just means paying a corrupt traitor to sell the country off and then a little PR spin. ๐Ÿฅฒ

You're right. Btw, I read a comment from you a while back endorsing .ml analyses as valid and sound, where you also noted you get frequently dv'd there, and some other things. I want you to know that we may not always agree, but I think you're basically alright. Iirc, my main issue is relegating women to be subservient to men.

Having been reared in Western Christianity, in late primary through secondary school years, cult evangelism, it's something I was also taught. But there was a lot in the protestent Bible translations that made no sense, and I went back to Jewish teachings (Jesus was a Jew, after all) and Christian and Jewish mysticism, that led to a different understanding of the word English speakers call "rib." That's an entirely different topic and I'm about to try to sleep, but we can discuss it elsewhere, possibly over the weekend, if you wish, but it's a bank holiday weekend and Monday, I have to work and my elderly parent would also like a little 3D time, so it also may not happen this weekend. I haven't seen enough of your other posts to have an informed opinion, I just want you to know I don't see you as an inherently bad person. I'm also have a bent toward agnostic Monism, so I'll forwarn you that appropriate boundaries will probably be mutually beneficial.
