Compassion and Kindness is a trait I try to desparately hold. You, are the reason why I find it difficult to do so. Well done Joei, you played me for a fool.
Initially, you sold me the story someone stole your money of 40 mil. And since I didn't like it, I offered to pay you 2 mil a day til 40m is reached.
After looking at the forums, I noticed a lot of distain towards you. And, I noticed your bounty reasons detailing you to be a scammer. So, I stopped. Then questioned you.
You after persuaded me you are not a scammer as, I personally didn't see evidence for it. So, I apologised as, I didn't have the sufficient evidence to back up the claim. Ironically, you were scamming me so, in reality, I was the scamming evidence. That hurts, but, I accept it.
Then, I offered to pay you again if you apologised. And, you didn't apologise to the community, but to me. For, playing me for a fool.
I don't accept your apology. And, I sincerely hope you get help Joei. I really do.
I have read a few of the Political and Law thread and I have come to the conclusion Torn may have a right-wing or conservative centred population. At least, in regards to the Politics&Law thread.
This is problematic for me as I am a communist and, to be truthful, I abhor conservatism.
I have always found it to be contradictory and idiotic.
For example, one of the laws of conservatism is the preaching of the free market. This idea that the market, when not intervened by the government, will sort itself out and benefit the consumer and corporations who respect the consumer.
Now, I see elements of this being true, to some degree, but when it comes to immigration, the concept of the free market seem to disappear.
Why can't the free market also encompass the idea of immigrants driving down wages due to corporations and individuals coming to an agreement about the value of one's labour? This is a question I pose to conservatives.
Another thing I see that is common amongst conservatives is the fact they seem to always react in opposites. To explain further, I will use race as an example:
Person 1 - "White people are bad"
Conservative - "Black people are bad"
Person 2 - "White people commit more crime"
Conservative - "Black people commit more crime"
This is how I feel conservatives handle their debates. It's essentially them talking about the perceived counterpart to their identity when they feel they are attacked and make their identity come out as superior or better.
This is why I believe conservatives are usually seen as white middle-aged men. As, their counterpart will likely be Black, young and women. Hence why Conservatism seems to debate around the topic of BLM, Millenials and Feminism.
Based on this, I find it odd whenever I see people from the black, young and feminine community associate as Conservatives. It seems odd to me that they would join a community that sees them as a threat and feel the need to demonise them so that their category remains perceived as the better category.
Maybe it is a sense of wanting to be the outsider or tradition or just simply satisfying a superiority complex which they believe can be accomplished by betraying their side.
But anyway, these are just my thoughts on Conservatism. And, I hope Torn Politics moves away from Conservatism (which is simply my perception and not necessarily true) and instead, moves towards leftism and communism. Which is the better ideology and any disagreement is willingness to betray facts.

By counterpart, I am referring to political counterpart. As in, the politics and its history demand that such characteristics be divided in the way I stated.
Also, you make the argument that immigration saturates the Labour Market. This is a valid argument but, isn't government intervention needed to regulate this? Therefore defeating the free market?
Also, does the same principle not apply to certain markets being saturated by singular corporations where, consumers no longer get a choice?
Have you ever met a girl whose blue eyes seductively called you? Whose beauty overshadowed the drizzle of the rain? This I felt on 1 day, on the train station where the trains would huff and puff towards its next destination after unloading its weight unto the platform. She was staring into her phone so she didn’t notice my stare towards her. Why did she not notice me? What did the phone have I didn’t? Was it because of its superiority on the IQ it had, how it could adapt to her every requirements but I can’t even change my race. This made me upset as I wish I could touch her, feel the clay that was shaped into such beauty and brought the physical meaning of perfection into our world.
I started to walk towards her, feeling the intense pressure to outrank a thing that was taming her and controlling her. As I got closer, I started to notice she was laughing, laughing at a figure that looked awfully like me, which made sense as it was me. A video that made me embarrassed, made me ever wonder how I could have ever had a chance at a woman, especially a woman of her status and structure. I mean, these videos are real. Aren’t they? So I went to a chair to seat down, sulking at my anxiousness to talk to her.
“Hello, could I seat there?” came the voice of an angel after some minutes.
I looked up and there she was, the girl I was thinking of, smiling with ease as she waited for an awe struck figure to respond.
“Of course, pardon me” I replied as I shifted to one side.
She sat down and I saw her starting to reach for her bag, expecting a phone to come out.
I asked “What do you think of the weather?”
At that moment, time stopped, I could feel my heart racing laps faster than time itself. Why would a female talk to someone of my caliber, a guy who would probably bring her less entertainment than the device she holds so dearly. I didn’t know what to do but let nature decide the outcome of this crushing atmosphere.
“Well, it’s not exactly my time of day, what about you?” she replied with a soft tone.
“Um… Well, I guess I could say the same” I replied with a monotonic voice that drifted gently into the air.
“What is your name?” I asked.
Which she replied with “And why would I tell a stranger my name?” in a calm manner.
I started to feel at ease and the atmosphere started to unravel into an enjoyable scenery.
I answered “Because this stranger would like to know more about you.”
The woman looked at me with her blue eyes, trying to analyze my body language, hoping to figure out my motives and reasoning for that reply.
“Well, my name is Emily, and who are you?” She said with a kind tone, curious as to unwrap the stranger who made no attempts to hide any intentions.
I replied “my name is Emmanuel and it is nice to meet you.”
She replied with a nod as her phone lit up, welcoming a visitor it had no problems with entrancing. She swiped and swiped and as she did so, I could see that she had more interest in an object that showed to be far better than me.
I felt like a knife had been stabbed in my heart, light flashing, showing me the comparisons between me, a human who was shy and rarely had any degrees with a facial features that would put an ogre to shape, and an object, that was crafted with elegance, smooth edges, purity in the form of white as its color, color changing on the screen, holding a watch to the eyes and telling it to look and never keep in contact with reality.
It vs me. How did I ever think I had a chance? Why did I even try to form a conversation? Clearly, romance was designed to be shown to objects and not me.
I decided to walk forward. My step forming slow movements, I wondered about what I could do to make myself feel better, I wondered about why my worth was undesirable to people, and how unbeneficial I was compared to other things, I wondered…
“Everybody stand back from the train tracks now!!” Cried the voice of a policeman as passenger’s looks painted a picture of sadness at the sight of an awful event.

2. What do you mean the institution no longer function correctly due to corruption? As, you make it sound like, America is Mexico.
3. The past doesn't necessarily dictate the future. Obama action has little relation to the boundaries Trump can operate as, they both hold the same political power.
