They exert control through fear. Talking about Jesus and Jehovah doesn't cause fear, it gives hope. So they need to keep Satan and demons in the front of the minds of the rank and file, so that they stay scared.

There isn't a fee involved in subscribing to a YouTube channel, and creators frequently will request that viewers subscribe. Subscribing is a button-click away and has no cost. Also, I bet a lot of people abandon their logins for any number of reasons or simply have so many subscribed channels that it's not easy to get their attention anymore unless your channel is massive.
So it's not unusual to see a channel with far more subscribers than video views. I figure that a lot of people don't support his YT channel anymore, but since there's no cost involved, they don't remember to unsubscribe.

It strains credulity to put forth the idea that the same God who wishes for all to be saved is only going to save a fraction of a fraction* of humanity when he finally sorts things out.
*Literally! Those three religions combined are around one-half of a percent of the current human population.

I'm assuming that he answered that way because he wanted to avoid falling into a potential trap if he gave the honest answer. Which should be embarrassing for him and the GB. Don't they teach that JWs must be ready to give a truthful and faithful testimony, even in the face of persecution or at risk of their safety? When given a chance to do so, Jackson slapped his fellow GB members across the face by calling them presumptuous, lol.
The sadder thing is that the others are not offended by this. They know why he lied and they support it, even though they would threaten rank-and-file JWs with disfellowshipping if they were to act so cravenly as to deny the authority of the GB.

Will Ukraine win?
by Fisherman ini was under the impression that it was going to be a short war, that russia’s military would indeed subdue ukraine’s forces quickly but that is not happening.
seems that russia’s military power is much less than it’s reputed to be.
no guess how it will all end..

At least for the moment, I can't imagine Putin agreeing to anything that would end the war aside from Ukraine surrendering. To lose would be to hand a victory to Ukraine, which would be intolerable after all of the justifications he gave to the Russian people. It would also be a victory for NATO, which would likely continue sanctions and do anything else --short of military action-- to rub his nose in his defeat.
I think it will be a war of attrition, quite possibly right to the very end. So it would be a matter of who runs out of fighting men first. And in the end, both countries will have suffered damage and losses that will take decades to recover from. Even in victory, this could spell the end of Russia as even a moderately powerful nation.

He wasn't really angry that people thought he was using a green screen. He just takes every opportunity to claim that he's being persecuted. "They said I'm using a green screen! See how they use lies to hurt me! It totally invalidates everything else in that forum!"
I still think he should use the green screen to present his next video as if he's doing a live feed from the vibrant streets of Phuket after dark.

LMsA: This is a big investment on a place just to film videos.
I sure hope he's not bringing any 'dates' into a place where he's got a lot of recording equipment...

I recall reading about a concept called a "diagonal tax," which is a clumsy name, but an interesting option. Exempt all income up to a certain amount, then tax anything above that at a flat rate. It doesn't solve the issue of representation, but it simplifies things without placing a burden on the poorest people.
I understand that in some countries, taxes are simpler and assessed by the government via a straightforward calculation. The tax code in the USA is very complex, and any attempts to simplify it run afoul of the lobby for tax prep companies (which are often arms of large finance firms), which make a lot of money by navigating the complex mess of taxes for citizens. It'd be great to have a simplified tax system. What we have now is so complex that you can go to great pains to do your taxes correctly and still run afoul of the law. And the government, through the IRS, can be brutal in its treatment of citizens who underpay by even small amounts.
The same IRS, mind you, which is now the beneficiary of additional billions in government funds intended to increase its size by some 87,000 workers...

Had to laugh.
by Lost in the fog ini had to laugh.. i bumped into a friend who has started going back to the meetings and who has that enthusiastic arm-waving way of talking about the stuff they're hearing from the platform.. in part he's wittering on about some talk they'd had about king david and all of his ups and downs.
and says, "and as the speaker emphasized over and over again, we can imitate david because he was a man just like ourselves.".
" i finally interrupted.. that shut him up.

King David summoned a married woman to his chambers and had sex with her, then he tried to cover it up and finally arranged for the death of her husband in order to take her as his own wife. God was so angry when he saw this that he... killed David's newborn son.
Maybe people want to empathize with King David because he literally got away with murder, and possibly with kidnap and rape. And anytime he angered God, other people paid the price with their lives. Then he was rewarded by becoming part of the lineage that would lead to the birth of Christ. Kind of a charmed life, when you think about it.
