Schopenhauer emphasized how deeply vanity shapes human behavior.
Philosopher Mary Wornak summarized it as "people cannot bear to be seen to be defeated, especially when this would suggest that they are stupider than their opponent."

Putin started his war with Ukraine 🇺🇦 to grab back land he felt was stolen from Russia. But now, because Putin is not very smart he is forced to make deals on Russian land that China feels was stolen from them by Russia!! Karma anyone???

While we've watched a group of people begin to dismantle the laws, the constitution & even decency, I'm focused on what's happening between Ukraine & Russia. The "bully" is beginning to lose the fight! Ukraine slowly & cautiously pushed back refusing to be ruled by a dictator!!!

I wonder why the billionaires don't find it more powerful to pay their fair share supporting their CONSUMERS, so the consumers continue to support them making them wealthier without being CRUEL?! If what they want is so great, why do they have to be bullies & FORCE it on us?

Trump meeting with Putin... again? Rinse, wash, repeat. The "squeeze" is on for Trump & Company. I wouldn't be surprised to find out that he's "greasing the wheels" 😟

Since I donated to some dem campaigns I am CONTINUALLY getting inundated with requests for donations using FEAR tactics. This all look BOGUS. I'm being included in chat groups too. This is horrible & annoying. Does anyone else have this problem? Is there a way to stop it?

Rational National made a great point about Zohran Mamdani... Republicans always talk about how much they hate NY city so why are they so against what Mamdani wants to do as Mayor? Why are they so afraid of him?

If you are against Maga & fascism, why would you celebrate July 4th this year? I'm curious. I would think that the haters might get confused & think you're celebrating WITH them?

Thank you, Governor Evers in WI. He changed school funding for 400 years by crossing out a few numbers in a bill to change it from "2024-25" to "2425"! WI Supreme Court said, "Yup, all good here!" Gov. Evers is a quiet, diligent representative of our state! 💙✌️☮️🇺🇦
