A lot of times a synopsis on a wikipedia equivalent (infogalactic) seems to cover a lot of the essentials of a novel. Or like cliff notes, summaries of novels.
 
When do you think novels are superior to short stories?
 
Where is the place of novels in today's world?

> [Aquinas] notes that the state should allow fornication and prostitution to exist for the sake of the common good. Relying on the well-known passage from Augustine’s De ordine, Aquinas advocates tolerance of prostitution by noting: “Accordingly in human government also, those who are in authority rightly tolerate certain evils, lest certain goods be lost, or certain evils be incurred: thus Augustine says [De ordine 2.4]: ‘If you do away with harlots, the world will be convulsed with lust.’” If these social practices were to be suppressed, the public reaction might be such as to threaten the peace of society.

Everything happens for a reason, I knew that the 6 color flag had a purpose around occult symbolism. Now we know exactly where it came from.
  
The devils followers keep him "hidden in plain sight." But the devil doesnt know that his pride and his vanity are weaknesses we will exploit. And we are just beginning to turn the tide.
  
The red-hats believe we have been "winning" for years lol and they specically bring up the meme war. But the truth is that the devil has had us beat on that regard up until very recently. I read a pol thread a few weeks ago about the power level of memes: Chad, Soyjack, Pepe etc are what we consider to be powerful memes but they are NOTHING (as in incredibly weak) compared to many of the devils memes: Ok Boomer, My body My choice, black lives matter, country of immigrants, etc.
  
Im paraphrasing a lot of what Id read and what is not clear in my memory, but the point is that there is a difference between regular memes and powerful memes. Power memes are far beyond regular memes, they reach more people, they last longer (possibly forever) and most importantly they actually change the dialogue and tides of this battle.
  
The most powerful meme of recent years is "Fake News". It began as the devil's but was later adopted by our side to spread distrust for the mainstream media. But I wonder if "fake news" was supposed to change sides, seeing who popularized it in 2016, it's hard not to notice that it only dismantles open dialogue no matter what side weaponizes the term.
  
Another power meme was "Ok Boomer" which has the same purpose and effect as "fake news": to stop open dialogue and to discourage any critical thinking about certain topics. The "Karen" meme was the same way but not as powerful. The basic idea is to get people to disregard complaints against *progressive* change. Conform goy or else get called a mean insult.
  
OK GROOMER is a power meme. The devil desperately wants to keep the pedos hidden and protected, and the right has been secretly pushing faggotry onto kids and normalizing it in our society. All fags are groomers. Make it known far and wide.
  
Ok groomer also works for critical race theory. Basically anyone who is in a position around children. Anyone who tries to indoctrinate against the parents will. Groomers!
  
I believe that the merchant man is likely the most powerful meme ever created. It is over 1000 years old, we see this meme in many variation all throughout history. It is the most censored meme that exists today.
  
If we are to win this battle than we are going to need to plan far ahead and develop power memes. Remember, this war is one of information, it is a war for the minds, and there is no distinction between citizen and soldier. Even those who dont know it are in this war. All the white npcs who got vaccinated wont have children, they are soldiers lost. We are fighting pure evil.
  
So the strategy to win this information war is two simple steps:
  
1. Develop power memes
  
2. Sneak past censorship to spread truth
  
Forums like this one facilitate number 1, however it does not get to normies. Truth spreads fast, even when censored, it just need to get to people initially. We need to recruit normies. Wagies, NPCs, whatever you want to call them, we need to recruit them. Even if theyre retarded, or black or whatever, if they are not on the side of truth than they will unknowingly be recruited to the side of evil. I know many of you will disagree with this but know that YOU are not immune to all the devil's propaganda. They want us divided in every way possible, they dont want blacks to know that whites werent responsible for their slavery. Malcom X and Mr bond make indoctrination easy.
  
You guys are some of the best meme creators on the internet. We must work together to make better, stronger, targetted propaganda. We will win this war.
  
We must secure the existence of our people and a future for white children.

I remember the massive meme wave of dunking on people who didn't want to pump their kids full of dozens of different vaccines in the first few years of their life. A lot of animosity was generated against these few and far between people. The numbers have risen since then, and the media propagandists have convinced the lemmings that anyone who doesn't want a vaccine for coronavirus is some sort of anti (all) vaccine(s) wingnut boomer Karen etc who now has the ire of said lemmings who have spent the last few years bashing actual anti-vaccine people. I don't know how many people noticed this, but it might explain the anger the average person has thrust upon him when he just doesn't want a coronavirus vaccine.

Did you notice the word shifting that has happened? They call it "the vaccine" like it is the only one. If one gets more specific, some people say "the covid vaccine" like there aren't many different ones.
 
On a related note, why did so many people start calling it "the jab"? "Jab" was mainly a U.K. word for vaccine, where we generally say "shot" in the U.S. I noticed people and the media unprecedentedly started saying "jab" during this time period. Where did that come from as well?

# This Weeks Discussion Theme: [Consoom weed]( https://www.supersurvey.com/resultsQG2CGFYOL)
 
Hits bong, exhales, “Dude weed” Seth Rogan laugh heheuheuheu!!111!1
 
In this weekly our discussion is on the devils lettuce, weed, dope, ganga, marijuana, cannabis. Taking drugs recreationally isn’t good for your health in general. We all know that you shouldn’t do drugs unless it’s proscribed or recommended by a doctor. But most people don’t follow that proverb despite it being sound advice. Consider, yourself and all those you know that do drugs, weed, caffeine, tobacco, or alcohol. Many would argue that in no way should the Government dictate what you can and cannot consume. Most would agree that alcohol prohibition caused more problems than it fixed which is why it ended. Similarly, arguments can be made pointing out that the war on drugs is a failure comparable to the prohibition era. Recently a Marijuana Reform Bill passed in the US House of Representatives which if the Senate passed would federally legalize Marijuana removing it as a schedule 1 controlled substance. What would happen if weed became federally legal in the United States? Is this a good thing or a bad thing? Is Marijuana not the evil street drug with no medical value that the US has told you it is for some 50 years?
 
 
Discussion ideas:
* What do you think about the US House of Representatives passing the Marijuana bill? Do you think the Senate will also pass it? Would Joe Biden Veto it if it came across his desk?
* What is your opinion of Marijuana? Is it equivalent to alcohol in terms of recreational use? Are there medical benefits to it or is that just stoner nonsense?
* Dude weed

Not sure which church this is associated with, I think multiple
 
> Easter fires are typically bonfires lit before, during, or after Easter Sunday as part of secular and religious celebrations.

> The Jesuit priest Alphonsus Messia (died 1732) is said to have devised this devotion in Lima, Peru. It was introduced to Rome around 1788 and spread around the world. In 1815, Pope Pius VII decreed a plenary indulgence to those who practise this devotion on Good Friday.[3]
 
> It may include meditation on the seven sayings of Jesus on the cross,[1] and often occurs between the Stations of the Cross at noon and the Liturgy of the Lord's Passion at 3PM, or between 6PM and 9PM.[2]

> Tenebrae (Latin for "shadows" or "darkness") is a Christian religious service celebrated in the Holy Week within Western Christianity, on the evening before or early morning of Maundy Thursday, Good Friday, and Holy Saturday. Tenebrae is distinctive for its gradual extinguishing of candles while a series of readings and psalms is chanted or recited.
