What mostly shaped your world view?

Early on I watched CNN and global Cold war politics I was exposed to many different cultures early on as well be it group homes and then time in the military overseas. Also spend some time in prison so I have a very down to earth world view and I see reality for what it is

@hippyjoe1955 Wisdom is knowing the world isn't black and white and there's an infinite amount of outcomes, infinite nazis and infinite non nazi.

@hippyjoe1955 The notions of Übermensch and Will to Power appeal to Nazis and the “far right.” It is not that Nietzsche was a Nazi or espoused Nazi views; it is that power and ego are an integral part of Nazism. There is a natural predisposition for ideas like these. Maybe their interpretation is wrong, maybe it isn't. Some would argue that this is why we need God.

Santa Claus. Not a joke comment. And not the alcohol-breath department store Santas, either. The REAL Santa (the Coca Cola Santa).

@popmol seems to be working out pretty well except corn syrup gave me a brain tumor because it is neurotoxic especially in excess. I know that bc i learned science and research methodology from my dad then did my own research to determine how i was poisoned. It was high fructose corn syrup. Which is neurotoxic.
