New legislation is finally ending the hiding of casino resort fees — which are a plague in Las Vegas and such places. This is thanks again to the Biden administration's pro-consume stance, which will be gutted in the Trump administration. The Trump admin will do everything possible to eliminate as many consumer protections as they can. Why? Because that's what corruption is. Every eliminated consumer protection yields some corporate donor billions. The US government will soon be for sale to the highest bidder. This is yet another example of how right-wing populism is bullshit. Right-wing populism is just a Trojan Horse for corporatism and oligarchy.
Casino resort fees are a prime example of sneaky forms of theft.
Nightclubs in Las Vegas also steal your money through hidden "service fees" which add as much as 30% to the price. The hiding of these junk fees is being banned too.
Hazzah!
I created a Part 2 of my popular music playlist. This update is massive and epic, with nearly 250 amazing tunes. Each tune was hand-selected by me after searching for 4 years across like thousands of songs. Finding these tunes took hundreds of hours of work. This is the best of the best. You won't find this anywhere else. Many of these tunes are obscure and unknown.
In case you missed it, here's Part 1.
Part 1 got 250,000 views. Part 2 is even better. This list alone is easily worth $1000. You get it for free just by following this blog.
A prime example of how theft works:
You should also note how corrupt the most popular social media influencers and podcasters are. They seem charismatic and nice, but underneath all that are corrupt. They corrupt the economy and they corrupt the epistemic ecosystem for profit without even realizing it. That's why they make the big bucks. Those big bucks don't come out of thin air, they are often generated through some kind of corrupt gimmick, whether it's selling vitamins or pitching crap coins, fraudulent services, or toxic ideology.
Notice how much of wealth and fame is based on outright fraud. Not all of it, but a disturbing amount. It's just well hidden and whitewashed. Many brands and services are using charismatic and likable social media influencers to launder their dirty business models, and many influencers are too immature or ignorant to care. In this way the entire influencer ecosystem is corrupted. Social media influencers are corrupted by: 1) algorithmic capture, 2) audience capture, 3) dirty advertisers and sponsors, 4) political ideology.
Please make everyone aware that the Honey plugin is a fraud.
Good video about this guy.
Remember, just because your ideas are different does not mean they are true or better than conventional knowledge.
I recommend that you sit down and contemplate whether 1x1=1 or 1x1=2, and why. Sit down and think it through for yourself rather than just believing anyone. This is a great exercise for building up your epistemology.
Challenging the intellectual status quo is a tricky business. You have to be very careful how you go about it or you will reveal yourself to be a fool.
Plotinus is one of the most accurate Western philosophers. His descriptions of God's nature are exemplary. He puts modern and contemporary Western philosophers to shame, excluding Hegel and Ken Wilber. It's despicable how few Western philosophers understood God. Western philosophy is an abysmal failure, a morass of human ignorance.
It's wonderful to validate Plotinus' descriptions through your own direct experience of God.
But even so, there is more to God and Consciousness than what Plotinus describes. So don't take that as the end.
