if you want Muslims to be more like the citizens of the countries they inhabit, stop focusing so much on petty differences between them and the rest of us, such as how many Mohamed's there are in Britain and instead talk about the accomplishments of the children of immigrant families in the UK and try and encourage them to be the best UK citizens they can be.

When a group of people openly states they want us dead for not following their religion or living a certain lifestyle they don't approve of that's not a 'petty' difference, stop trying to brush aside the fact that a significant chunk of them are outright fanatics, I am actually growing to hate people like you more than any religious person because you're the reason they gain so much influence and can get away with so much violence.

you know i am not trying to infer that radical Muslims do not exist, it just does not solve the problem at all to talk about what you feel they should be naming their kids. I'm saying that doing that is focusing on petty issues and doesn't solve anything. what is the end game to pointing that out? are you going to pass a law not allowing them to name their kid Mohammed? like the foolish fascist laws that prohibit them from wearing essentially the same head covering you have no problem with nuns wearing?

Like at some point you have to ask yourself what is it you want to achieve here? in the early 2000s I felt like you and even still I agree with the fact that you have to stick up for liberal values and fight for them. Values that include  womens rights, LGBT rights, freedom of speech. Those are important values to try and uphold for all humanity and in countries where those rights are not held I agree with you that we need to forgo sensitivity, but what exactly does pointing out a petty difference such as how many people (for all you know patriotic Brits) in Britain name their kid Mohamed do to help anything? How does that move the ball forward exactly?

I think the point that you are missing is that some one Named Mohammed can be  Union Jack flag waving British soccer hooligan, he is just somebody that is from a different ancestry than you are. First you need to accept the fact that not all patriots look like you and are named like you and then you need to learn to differentiate between them and the ones who are at war with your way of life and then you can find a way to convert more of them, but if you don't do that and don't show some love for the good ones they will become disenfranchised and eventually bad ones. Getting upset that they all have a cultural name in common and and complaining about it is not inclusive or inviting them to join us its telling them to fuck off... stop before you post and ask yourself how is what i am about to say going to help accomplish anything I want

the number of people named Mohamed is not a fanatical difference between us, i hate no one but I"m not a fan of people like you because you repeat the news verbatim
103  Other / Politics & Society / Re: What is white nationalism and why it is so dangerous? on: September 02, 2016, 09:36:59 PM
All nationalism is bad, (in my humble opinion) people have the right to it  only as a means to self preservation, (such as any case of people fearing potential genocide) maybe I'm wrong but white people are not in any kind of danger nor does their culture seem to be or does it seem to need to be protected and so the idea that they require secure borders to preserve their culture seems ridiculous.

The Idea that two distinct cultures cannot live side by side regardless of where they are from is not true, its merely accurate of whats happened in history due to the fact that colonizers did not have the intention to live with the inhabitants of the land they were colonizing and also the fact that outside factors at the time unknown to science such as disease also irradicated the natives of many colonized lands.

anyways needless to say there is no proof that many cultures cant thrive side by side in the same countries, as long as we all agree to peacefully cooperate and respect one anothers beliefs and not let them infringe upon the beliefs of others. The fact that anyone is native anywhere is not a good reason to have more or less rights than anyone else because we are all human and should all have equal rights all the time.

the only real problems we face are economic, much like communism in a country the idea that all countries are responsible for one another means some countries that produce less require help from countries that produce more, this problem will be fixed with the advent of things like bitcoin and 3d printers. many things will come along that help people have a better way of life than their current economic system allows until one day all economic systems become secondary to these new tools. In the Star Trek TV Universe eventually they are able to print water and food and economic differences between nations become petty and no longer relevant. This is actually a plausible scenario in real life, if we all have enough food and water there is immediately a lot less to fight over.

Anyways to sum up white people just need to fuck each other and make more white people for their culture to continue and nothing is prohibiting them from doing that. The idea that nationalism is somehow the answer or to have white only countries is the answer is going backwards. White people should feel pride in the fact that their countries are now all mixed and take pride in their immigration as it may be the greatest gift to mankind their societies ever provided the world. (even if these amazing programs that currently exist unfortunatley had to start with the plight of many of the originators of these programs coming to these lands as slaves) All countries should be allowing every one in who wants to come and work there regardless of race religion, gender or sexual orientation, and they should have equal rights.  

White Nationalism is no better or worse than any other Nationalism related to religion or race in theory, accept that no one can argue how much blood it has on its hands and maybe its due to how successful white people have been and their societies have been and when they decide to discriminate against other people who are not white it has the potential to do a lot of damage.
its also very insensitive to the fact that white people have already been privileged with success and held back everyone else. It not necessary in a sense. White people still have communities and families and cultural experiences all their own so why hold down anyone else?

Why feel competitive towards one another when you have already been so blessed and fortunate? We are all stuck on this earth together and a chain is only as strong as its weakest link. We should be working together to bring out the best in one another because nationalism will only lead to our worst. let us instead be competitive about helping one another the most and see where that gets us. Maybe the cure for cancer lies in the potential of a mind in an under developed country who isnt getting access to school and we are all missing out

105  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Mohammed tops the list of most popular baby boy names in England and Wales on: September 02, 2016, 08:59:17 PM
Its funny that when I was a kid I knew many Mohameds and I didn't even realize they were Muslims until the media started talking about Muslims all the time some years ago, before that time they were just Brits named Mo

when you single out groups of individuals you alienate them from the rest of the group and you banned them together in a feeling of mutual concern for the appreciation of their contribution to the greater group.

if you want Muslims to be more like the citizens of the countries they inhabit, stop focusing so much on petty differences between them and the rest of us, such as how many Mohamed's there are in Britain and instead talk about the accomplishments of the children of immigrant families in the UK and try and encourage them to be the best UK citizens they can be.

That is the truest , fairest and best way to assimilate your new citizen.

Welcome to Tao.
http://tao.network/WelcomeToTao.pdf

The Tao Network is an exciting new project being developed and launched as a DAO in the public trust which includes several new technological innovations and governance structures.  We, the Tao Development Team, are pleased and honored to be presenting the opportunity to the public to participate in what we know will be an amazing experience for everyone involved.  We look forward to getting to know all of you and you getting to know us!

The scale and scope of the project is incredibly ambitious and over the next few weeks of the crowd sale we look forward to revealing how the Tao Network will be used in currently profitable and existing business operations, by real people simply living their lives.

The blockchain exists.  The deals are done.  Bringing this project to reality has been an immense undertaking by dozens of people and on behalf of them, and ourselves, welcome to Tao.

Investors’ Handbook.
http://tao.network/InvestorsHandbook.pdf

This forum contains the experts on cryptocurrencies and blockchains.  We know what you want to makes a project a reality and pleased to be able to share with you the fruit of our efforts. Please be patient and afford us the opportunity to reveal those details to you in a manner consistent with how this project is being developed and presented for the long term.

Proof of Stake: 4%
Proof of Work Algo: X11
Proof of Work Reward: 1TAO per block, halving 26 times
Block time: 7.5m
Block size: 20MB w/ Adaptive Block Sizes
Alpha (Master) Node Minimum Qualification: 10,000 TAO
Tokens available via crowd sale: 30,000,000 TAO
Total tokens: 32,000,000 TAO

Technical features:
NEW! Subchains
NEW! Intelligent Transactions
NEW! Identity management solution
NEW! Digital asset management

Encrypted Messaging * Integrated Block Explorer * Adaptive Block Sizes * Masternodes
Of the 2,000,000 TAO not for sale:
•   100,000 TAO will be used to establish the core of the Alpha (Master) Node network of 10 nodes, the proceeds of which will be used to pay for those nodes and support the network.  The nodes are hosted on a service VPS which accepts Bitcoin.
•   250,000 TAO will be held for bounties and awards.
•   The Tao blockchain has implemented OP_CHECKLOCKTIMEVERIFY, otherwise known as OP_HODL.  The remaining 1.65m TAO and any TAO left unspent from the bounties will be placed in an OP_HODL time locked smart contract.  These funds shall be locked for a period of four years and used to create music and blockchain education programs for children.


The Tao of Music.

http://tao.network/TaoOfMusic.pdf

One of the proposed use cases for the Tao blockchain is to create a digital asset management system suitable for use within the music industry.  Toward this goal we have engaged individuals throughout the music supply chain to learn exactly how a blockchain fits into the real business of music.  Throughout this crowd sale it will be our honor to introduce these people to you and their contribution to this effort.

… and more to come!
Music is only the first use case planned for the Tao blockchain, but it is that which truly exemplifies this technology and all it has to offer.  

Why don’t you just tell us!
The reason is simple: you wouldn’t believe it even if we told you.  It’s too big and a big meal is best eaten in small bites.  We are very excited about this project and its potential.  We want you to get excited, but we want that excitement to be based on reality and not hype.  As each stage of development is revealed, the complete picture of what Tao is destined to become shall be clear.

1. I need more than cheap line like "Big meals are often eaten in small bites" to justify why I should trust a JR memeber anon dev, with a coin that sounds like DAO... even if this is legit, for someone who loves the music industry your marketing is so poor, i don't trust your judgment to get this coin (whatever it might be like, cause you haven't really said) off the ground. My experience tells me this sounds liek another ICO where the developers will ask for a lot of money and then do nothing after the coin is released. Prove me wrong!

Me: Checks date of original post, shakes head with embarrassment for poster.

ETC is dead guys the scam is Fait Accomplis. The only reason for it to bounce back now is A) people selling off their remaining coins   and B) weirdos on BTC forums who for some reason don't like to let scams go that kinda sounded like good ideas in their origin.

There is absolutely no reason to trust these people any more! Get over it and find a new coin!

How do you explain the current high price?
108  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Is Socialism losing against Capitalism? on: September 02, 2016, 07:04:01 PM
The reason why I asked this is purely based on Observation. Particularly the following:
1. Soviet Unions collapse.
2. China embracing a capitalist form of economy.
3. Fall of other communist and socialist regimes.
4. Increased foreign relations of Socialist countries with the United States (as the case of Cuba and Vietnam)
5. In my observation, no gains in terms of the struggle of the communists and leftists around the world.

This is an honest question as I do not have sufficient knowledge of the Socialist's plight and experiences.

Thank you for your response.

All Ism's weather they be capital , social, communal, (or economic or political) are merely systems which are only as good as the people who choose to utilize those systems.

if you seek to make capitalism beneficial for everyone it will be and if you are greedy and seek only to make it work for yourself you will break it.
such is the problem of Greed VS a Free Market System

If you seek to make socialism work for everyones advantage, then along side private donations given to the communal cause, govt programs can be a wonderful thing (such as in the case of many Canadian Hospitals that also have privately donated equipment which makes them even better socialized hospitals) but if you seek to take advantage of these systems for your own greed, than greedy people can make socialism not work as in many past cases.

if you look at Europe there are many cases where socialism is working well currently, but it works because the people who use that system want it to work.

All systems are just systems, they have no feelings they are only as good as people who try and make them work

Very well said, dude, couldn't have said it better myself! There is no one right way only the way that works for our current situauion!

Wow  someone dropping 60 BTC in this is big, you dont do that on a passive investment, that is to pump this baby with.

I am glad for everyone's enthusiasm, lets see if you can maintain it in the long period after ICO, Bet i buy half your coins cheaper than ICO just like on waves

Is any exchange actually ready to take it? Polo will never happen so forget that,

Trex is what is needed, And I also say 1ex.trade cause it's sick



You want to bet on polo happening?


Hell yes, unless you are prvvy to inside knowledge?

it wont be on Polo within 3 months,

All new Alt's get chubby talking about it and zero of them deliver.

Why do they need to add shitcoins ( slang) when they can invent ETC?

I never said 3 months but I do think after time its going to be on polo and probably sooner than later.
