  • My dad has the same issue and my girlfriend also had. I was able to help her, he is a lost cause.

    But honestly it’s really basic. Just don’t yell while sneezing. Sneeze without vocalising at all. Even if it’s “strong”, it won’t be nearly as loud.

    This is just like “muscle memory”. You one day started yelling while sneezing, and it became subconscious.

    If you consciously try to not do it every time you sneeze, that too will become subconscious and “muscle memory”.

    The Soviets kept the Nazi scientists in prison tho… and after they finished their work they were left to rot.

    Stalin famously wanted to execute every single military officer from Nazi Germany after the war, and Churchill threw a hissy fit saying “they didn’t deserve it, they were just protecting their country like any good (white, racist) man would!”.

    And then the US “rehabilitated” many of the Nazis and put them into positions of power, in the West German US occupied territories, in the nascent NATO, in the US itself….

    And it’s been happening for decades already! Like it never stopped. We put the fear of god into their hearts in the 19th and early 20th centuries, and they never recovered.

    A special armed squad to protect capital was born because they understand class war even better than most current leftists.

    Even after they “won” they just doubled down because unlike working class libs, they know class war will not end until one or all of us are done for.

    Except no? The capitalist class historically bands together to fight possible revolutions and the working class 100% of the time. They are more class conscious, meaning they understand their position better, and start working to protect it sooner than the working class can perceive the class conflict escalating.

    Just look at what’s happening right now! The far-right is rising all over the “west”, worker protection laws are being eroded, pensions “reformed”.

    It’s undeniable the capitalist class is much more united and organized. It doesn’t matter if they’ll or do stab each other in the back behind the scenes.

    They have a natural sense for “democratic centralism” it seems, cause their outward actions are always united against us.

    People really need to read Marx man…

    He literally described fascism decades before it was born. He said the contradictions of capitalism would cause people to look for solutions, and a “false” path people would find was that indeed capitalism had to be overcome. But that they had to return to a pre-capitalist life, return to the land and to feudalistic idealisms. Fascist Italy literally had “guilds”…

    Marx said these “anti-capitalists” would see value in communist rhetoric, because they agreed with communists half-way. But they missed that the only solution is to move forward. That before capitalism, there were contradictions that inevitably led to capitalism, and it would just happen again.

    Fascism is literally miopic anti-capitalism. It’s what happens to actual justifiable dissatisfaction and anger at the system without theory and understanding.

    Yes, fascism really does sound like communism. It’s the goal, it’s how it’s born. It SOUNDS like communism, but has none of the solutions or the substance.



  • We need to define consciousness here…

    To me everything you describe is related to the mind. Not consciousness.

    To me consciousness is the observer of the mind, not the mind.

    Like, what is “sensing” your thoughts? What is “behind” the mind’s eyes?

    That’s consciousness.

    And it IS universal. It’s indivisible and eternal (doesn’t change).

    Your observer is always neutrally observing. All judgments and shifts happen in the mind. Which the consciousness just observes.
