Title. I honestly think he is genuinely more clever than the richer, more glory hogging power players, but that's just a guess.

Leaving this as a mental note to explain how the tech capitalists in the US work because it's a pretty exceptional situation, also will answer the question about Islamic warfare in the other thread. It's just like 1:30 am here lol

Thank you so much. I'm slower and more dull as I age, so I'll ask forgiveness in advance for failure to grasp the obvious with speed.

Don't worry about that!! I'm nice!!! Not trying to engage in Mind Warfare or whatever.

Get some rest, my friend. I'm about to repost another of your posts in the OpenChristian.ca community. While I'm not Muslim, please know I'm sincere when I say Salaam Alaikum.

I'm not Muslim either, but I am sincere when I return your salaam :)

Was raised secular protestant, I didn't even get interested in the history of religion until the past couple years led me to delve into monetary history. Now I feel like I've been missing out on all the driving forces of ancient history and getting treated to glorified trivia

You're already welcome to repost anything of mine and I'm interested to learn about that community as well, so thanks for mentioning it

Thank you too.. I look forward to learning with you!
