Yes, "when people say", because masses of average people who dont even know what law of identity is are a great source to learn logic and laws of logic from. You can go now if you are done with nonsense.

it depends on how you interpret the word "creator"
Whoever created this world is either insane either psychopath, and since Christian God fits both of those descriptions, one can conclude he probably exists. Problem solved.

If I said Cakes are sweet, would that mean I am not admitting that some bland cakes also exist
Most people dont know how words work, so they use one bad logic to justify another bad logic. The word "cars" obviously includes all cars, per law of identity, so it would be absurd to say that some cars arent cars. Its complicated.

That's why some food preppers also prep guns.
Sure, but when you have much more stupid people who also have guns, are starving, and forming gangs, then its not looking good or even slightly in your favor. Its much harder to defend property.

You are right that the nigs are being somewhat smart by leaching off of the system while whites are productive and gain nothing from it.
Oh so you made this about race as if stupid white people dont exist. Thats great...

Lets say that you are a smart person, so you make food supplies which include sugar, oil, flour, wheat, chocolate... the stuff which is mostly cheap or desirable, lasts long and contains plenty of calories, useful as supplies in both nuclear war and to counter constantly rising food prices by buying plenty of food before it becomes more expensive.
Then the problem appears.
A stupid person appears, who made no supplies but enjoyed spending his money on lots of stuff instead of securing his future, then a nuclear war happens, and he is left without any food.
Lets look at how stupid person thinks.
Stupid person thinks: "I was stupid and didnt care about my future despite plenty of warnings, but I shouldnt be punished for my bad actions. Oh look, that guy has food and he should share it with me."
Lets look at the complete situation now.
A smart person worked to secure his future to have food, while stupid person enjoyed in the moment, but now smart person must share food with stupid person, so stupid person actually has secured future all while fully enjoying present.
Such is Tao, where stupid person ends up being the smartest.

I guess perfection gets ruined with the need for new things. Thats nature's cycle.
Smite for years has been one of the best multiplayer games out there. It had everything.
It still is the best, but it is no longer as good as it used to be. Plenty of changes happened.
Plenty of attack items were introduced while defense items were made weaker and now its pretty much pointless to build defense. Attack is way stronger.
Items which give penetration, attack speed and power are very much overpowered compared to defense items which huge majority gives nothing but defense. The gameplay changed.
Now you either build one protection item or none, so I usually choose just mail of renewal because it gives health and healing and protections. It works well.
As for attack items, for physical, you very much want Crusher and Silverbranch bow since they give you power, penetration and attack speed. Then you want Asi, Titans, and Brawler's beatstick. Its balanced build.
You can go for auto attack build and go crusher, silverbranch, executioner, qins, titans. But I dont find auto attack builds that good since most fights are decided in first few seconds, and auto attack only does more damage over longer time. Team fights are about burst damage.
You can still play defensively in Smite, you just cant build defensively, because attack build is now best defense, as you cant defend yourself if you cant do damage, and attack builds give more damage than defense builds reduce. Its how it is now.
I see players at level 100 and above almost all playing almost pure damage builds, with usually just one or none defense item. Its bad news for almost all defense items.

Seems like Trump is already preparing to enforce project 2025.
His allies are taking over media, social media, education, congress, courts and military positions. All positions of power and influence.
I guess average American always learns too late. We warned them, but they chose to elect Hitler like Germans did in 1933. Now this Hitler is doing exactly same moves as Hitler from 1933.
There are some naive people in USA who think that giving a person full power over country will solve all their problems. Germans learned the hard way.

When I was saying years ago that Kim Jong Un is one of the most skilled leaders ever, people thought I was joking.
For decades, South Korea and USA talked shit about North Korea.
"North Korea cannot sustain a war."
"North Korea cannot fight outside its borders."
"North Korea's technology is weak."
"North Korean soldiers are uncapable in a fight."
The story went on for years, until North Korea started shooting ICBMs every week.
Then it became clear that North Korea is one of only 4 countries in the world which have ICBM.
It was expected that North Korea wont achieve significant development, but North Korea produced hundreds of ICBMs in a very short period of time, which was previously considered impossible because all other countries who have ICBMs are much larger countries with much larger GDP.
But South Korea was still bragging how its technology is better, even tho South Korea has no ICBM.
South Korea was bragging until five North Korean drones crossed South Korean border and entered South Korean capital.
South Korea used airforce and anti-air to try to destroy the drones. The pursuit lasted for 5 hours, but South Korea failed to shoot down any of the drones. All five drones returned to North Korea.
South Korea was embarrased and humiliated, and one thing became very clear. In case of war, if USA doesnt come to help, South Korea will be obliterated by much stronger North Korea.
So the main problem for North Korea was the possibility of US attacking North Korea. However, that too has also completely changed now.
With war in Ukraine, Putin was running out of ammo and artillery shells. Thus, he requested North Korean help with that, and soon millions of North Korean shells came to Russia. With this, North Korea completely solved its food problem, since it now gains food from Russia.
But it doesnt stop there.
President of Ukraine thought it was a good idea to attack Russian soil and capture some of Russian territory.
Putin was losing, and was forced to sign a defense alliance with North Korea.
The alliance basically says that any attack on Russia or North Korea is an attack on both Russia and North Korea.
With this, it means that if USA was to ever attack North Korea, USA would automatically be at war with Russia.
This drastically improved North Korean position, basically making North Korea untouchable.
When president of Ukraine decided to make attacks on Russian soil, it triggered the defense alliance between North Korea and Russia.
Soon, tens of thousands of North Korean soldiers, hundreds of North Korean tanks, millions of artillery shells, advanced North Korean missiles all started coming to Russia, and Ukraine started having major losses after it was faced with combined strength of Russia and North Korea.
North Korea in return also gets Russian technology regarding ICBM, which improves North Korean position to the greatest possible level.
Now North Korea is part of the strongest alliance in the world, while Germany is in crisis, USA is in crisis.
North Korean and Russian military production is simply greater than that of Ukraine's allies, because North Korea has millions of artillery shells and one of the largest artillery forces in the world.
Ukraine's allies cant afford to increase their military production, because their economies are already suffering greatly.
The Ukraine is lost.

now that ive made my research it seems singapur actually has an insane military
No, 50k troops and 100 aircrafts isnt insane.
USA has over 10000 aircrafts. Now that is insane.
Plus, Singapore, Israel, South Korea... are all supplied by US in terms of military. Its thanks to USA. Those countries wouldnt even exist on their own.
Created:

@befairbruh
Again, thats just your theory which did not occur anywhere in practice.
If you want for USA to be Singapore, then you have to give up on US military, production and healthcare, because Singapore has almost no military power or production.
It is China and USA which supply the rest of the world with goods and protection.
The moment USA would choose to abandon its military power, you would just have Russia and China exploiting that and taking over the world.
Remember, its the USA model which leads the world, not Singapore.
Its the USA model which protected Ukraine. It wasnt Singapore.
If you want for USA to be Singapore, then prepare to step off the world stage first and hand over world to China and Russia.
Small countries who have small governments have never succeeded in terms of military competition, because big military requires big government spending.
Thus, Singapore has no means to defend itself, so if you want to be like that, go ahead.
Also, Singapore has a lot less population and low immigration, so its GDP per capita is enjoyed by much less people, so your theory is just more wealth to less people.

Singapore
Again, singapore is small and irrelevant while USA is strongest military on Earth and biggest total GDP.
Again, if your theory was correct, there would be at least 1 small government country with big total GDP, but there isnt any.
Total GDP represents total wealth, so no matter how you look at it, US and China have the most total wealth.

well first the guy said nazism is a good idea if you dont think that is harsh then wtf am i even trying to do here is ridiculous i only came not to win a debate but to get to a fundamental truth based over facts not some sociopathic ignoring manipulation method from a book
People have a right to defend whatever idea they want. Its how debating works. You cant have a debate about something if people arent allowed to debate it.
Sure, maybe I personally disagree with nazism, but I dont really care if people want to debate it. They are allowed to.

ireland has an even bigger gdp than the american one and is a freer country, new zealand has an even bigger gdp than the us
No, USA has the largest GDP in the world. China is second largest. Also, those countries have much weaker military than USA.
that said that capitalism wasted more resources than ever and now you say communist like governments have bigger gdps isnt that a contradiction????
Both China and USA have markets, didnt you know? Besides, the claim in another thread was that planned economy makes it possible to save resources. It wasnt "all big governments save resources".
i mean for example china gdp vs singapur gdp you will see that the chinese one is bigger yet per capita singapur is $84,734 compared to the chinese one wich is $12,597this means that This disparity highlights Singapore's higher average economic output per person wich means more people are rich on a free economy
Singapur has much lower total GDP and much weaker military.
Thus, we see that if your theory was true, we would see pure capitalist countries having highest total GDP as well as strong military, but we dont see that. We dont see anything even close to that. All we see are tiny countries which dont have much military, and still have bunch of government regulations, so arent exactly pure capitalists either.

it doesn't need to be significantly reduced for prices to adjust
Those resources have reduced significantly, yet prices in USA failed to reduce their consumption in any significant amount.
If the government is divying up things based on equality
No one said anything about equal distribution. There are ways other than simple government distribution, like reducing current available supply by government taking over some part of resource, and through increased taxes which have worked before to reduce consumption.
underground markets prop up to redistribute resources
You claim that market is best at distributing, so if we are to trust you, then underground markets arent a bad thing or even a valid argument because you think they help distribute better.
But even underground markets are affected by current supply reduction.

You still havent disproved that USA had to introduce food stamps to reduce hunger. I guess its a fact now. Government intervention reduced hunger. Also, you seem to fail to point us to these small governments which you talk about. Do they even exist?
You talk of growth, yet all biggest countries with biggest GDP have huge governments.
industrial revolution made population grow
It even employed 6 year olds in factories until government made it illegal. I guess you only read censored version of history.

@WyIted
No, you can be low without being nearly depleted.
Low means being near to being depleted, in this case.
You think government trying to reduce resource consumption will be completely negated by market, while also thinking that market perfectly regulates that same resource consumption.
So in other words, you are just contradicting yourself and even entire history disproves you.
You also think that it is better to go from low price to higher price as resource lowers in supply, but you fail to understand that resource depletes faster when price is low, thus your theory only increases price significantly when plenty of resource is already wasted.
To put it simply, you start with low price which enables rapid depleting, and only when resource is significantly depleted, you increase price significantly.
This is like wasting money and only reducing spending once you have already spent a lot instead of being responsible and saving money from start.
I would tell you to google principle of parsimony, but after previous comments, one cannot expect much.

@WyIted
A low supply will immediately impact prices and cause companies to and consumers to redirect their resources and energy to acquiring things from different sources.
You are just repeating what I said. Low supply = nearly depleted
Coal runs low, you move to oil, wild runs low you start developing electric vehicles etc.
This was already responded to. The only valid sources of energy we know of are oil, gas, coal and nuclear. All finite and all currently being depleted. Also, oil cannot replace coal in all areas, and coal, nuclear and gas cannot be used effectively in military.
If you haven't looked at economics I would start by Google g supply and demand
You think you know something about economy. You are not just repeating refuted points.

Price increases are a way to naturally regulate things like how many candy bars a person will buy. It works much more efficiently than somebody having to individually track.millioms of products and having to put qotas up like socialists do. It also erases the underground market hat pop up in regulated economies and undermine the quotas to start with
The problem is that prices only start to increase when resource is nearly depleted, which causes serious harm to already bad economy.
We only have 4 reliable energy resources: fuel, coal, nuclear, gas.
3 out of 4 will run out rather quickly.
Nuclear might last a bit longer, but if entire world switches to it, it too will be quickly depleted.
Renewables arent a good alternative because they cost too much and even few countries which heavily invested in them still depend from the 4 sources mentioned previously.
To put it simply, energy needed for electricity and heating cannot be recycled, and it cannot be really obtained from renewable sources either.
The only way to make it work in long run is to either reduce amount of resources we use, so they last longer, or we find a much better renewable source.
We dont have 3rd option here. We either achieve unlimited energy either we use the limited one less so it lasts longer.

in communsim no new goods are created jus redistributed against the owners will
You think you get to define Communism. Cute.
yes slavery was capitalism, and yes war is also capitalism
Thats totally not retarded.
liberalism was created, because it carrys the premise of the principle of no agression and the use of the state not to redistribute wealth or goods
You think there is a country which doesnt redistribute goods. This just keeps getting better.
governemnt doesnt really make anything, it just uses the state to steal money and use it for their own purposes, and some enterpises in the middle of the recycling process dont even care about this stuff and just get benefits from it
You think government doesnt protect you and your property from invaders. You also think government didnt reduce hunger by introducing food stamps. You also seem to be thinking that government didnt enable recycling and renewable energies through taxes and investments.

if an enterprise sees itself being beneficted by the government for doing something like that then they will go at it, besides, the enterprises that make recycling literally have nothing to do with it

@Skipper_Sr
Is your solution that the government hands out all of the resources to its citizens?
The solution can be as simple as everyone just reducing amount of resources they use, but the main problem still lies in fact that buisnesses compete to maximize output, thus they have to use lots of resources as well.
This means that any finite resource is depleted at fastest rate possible.

capitalism is a concept that stands to even a cellular level because its literally the creation of a good from a current one
So Communism is capitalism. Great.
Well, since you defined Capitalism in a way that even slavery is capitalism, I guess there is nothing left to argue.
where different species of different sizes work and live in harmony all competing in their own market to see who strives for more
So war is Capitalism too.
you either have absoulute freedom, anarchism or a minimum government
Oh great, another definition which contradicts your first definition and doesnt work in reality since most powerful countries are the ones with big governments.
