“What is 8values? 8values is, in essence, a political quiz that attempts to assign percentages for eight different political values. You will be presented by a statement, and then you will answer with your opinion on the statement, from Strongly Agree to Strongly Disagree, with each answer slightly affecting your scores. At the end of the quiz, your answers will be compared to the maximum possible for each value, thus giving you a percentage. Answer honestly! There are 70 questions in the test. There are four independent axes – Economic, Diplomatic, State, and Society – and each has two opposing values assigned to them. They are: Equality (Economic) Markets (Economic) Nation (Diplomatic) Globe (Diplomatic) Liberty (State) Authority (State) Tradition (Society) Progress (Society) In addition to matching you to the eight values, the quiz also attempts to match you to a political ideology. This is a work in progress and is much less accurate than the values and axes, so don’t take it too seriously. If you disagree with your assigned ideology, send us an email at eightvalues@gmail.com with your scores, matched ideology, and preferred ideology, and we’ll look into adjusting the system. Thanks!”

01) LEAKED AUDIO: Trump on Black Americans
“Bob Woodward’s newest book is exposing Trump for the monster that he is.
President Trump said he doesn’t feel a responsibility “at all” to try to have a better understanding of the pain Black Americans feel, according to a new book by Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Bob Woodward.
His comment came during an interview he had with Woodward on June 19, just weeks after the police killing of George Floyd, an unarmed Black man whose death at the hands of Minneapolis police in late May sparked months of widespread protests against police brutality and systemic racism.

The Problem With Distortions…
|

| …. |
Date: September 13, 2020 The problem with distortions about MAPs, molestation, rape, child pornography, etc…is that they have only ever led to injury, and the chronic ineptness in social structures claimed to combat human violence. It never does anything good, to drown these issues in hyperbole… It objectively does no good, to lie about the vast range of people, who are in some way impacted by these issues. The only thing you are doing, is aggravating [possibly threatening] people, who already have a life full of complications and hurdles to overcome… …A lot of these people have suffered immeasurably, over their own lifetime… …and they don’t need others piling on top of them, making things worse. This is among the many reasons it drives me up the wall, to see young MAPs embracing the negative, cultural talking points…and aggressively repeating them as if they were fact… …even attacking other MAPs who’ve been around, who’ve seen behind the curtains… …who rightly reject those cultural talking points. All people should be free to outwardly talk about their own experiences and issues… …Nobody should ever generalize their own thoughts and experiences, as being those of everybody else.

“When two androids are tasked with raising human children on a mysterious virgin planet in the wake of a religious war, they learn that controlling the beliefs of humans is a treacherous task. From Ridley Scott, legendary director of The Martian, Gladiator, and Alien, comes Raised by Wolves.” I’m not trying to sell any product here…I just stumbled upon this free episode of a new show…watched it…found it to be really quite good…and decided to share it. There is a cute boy, with a substantial role…Hopefully, he sticks around for a while in the series, and it doesn’t quickly “time leap” him out. |
