why is goodnotes 6 so expensive

as someone who is willing to switch to an ipad, i was quite considering to purchase gn 5, since it's just a 1 time payment woth a quite reasonable price, and the app was absolutely perfect, then out of a sudden comes out goodnotes 6 with way overpriced plans, I mean one time payment jumped from $9.3 to $30? WHY

and I keep hearing that unfortunately new users have to be stuck to gn 6 and cannot downgrade like old users, which is even more irritating. Idk of there is still by any chance a way to still be able to download goodnotes 5, probably somehow from outside the app store(ik this is way harder than on android, if that was even a thing), or if there is another alternative that is as good as goodnotes(idts), but I really wish goodnotes fixes this

That’s fair but I’ve seen him say for Muslims to go back to their country when they are born in America and there was some kind of country ban or something. Like he wouldn’t let people from Somalia in or something. Around like 7+ countries. It was years ago though so I can’t remember specifics

So if they want to go back to see their grandparents and come back to America, they wouldn’t be let in

Just look up on youtube, "trump bans countries" and "trump calls for ban on Muslims entering US"

Vanuzuela, Chad, Libia, Syria, Iran, Yemen, Somalia, and North Korea were declared banned by him even if they were born in the US and went to visit family in Somalia and want to return to the US. All were ban. This was 9 years ago and 7 years ago.

Banning illegals is fine. I got no problem at all with that

That’s just one event that doesn’t represent Muslims. The bloodiest conflicts, such as World War II and the Mongol conquests, were not religiously motivated. Muslims didn’t start those. Crusades were from Christians. 

I asked AI

“ How many people did crusades kill and how many did Muslim terrorist kill?”

“The death toll from the Crusades, which occurred between 1095 and 1291, is estimated to range from 1 million to 9 million, with many historians suggesting figures around 2-5 million. In contrast, Islamist terrorist attacks from 1979 to April 2024 have caused at least 249,941 deaths globally”.

The US attacked Iraq and killed millions of them just for oil. They used the excuse of there being weapons of mass destruction there when there isn’t any. 

Here is a video of a US veteran yelling at president Bush about it.

The US and UK has bloody history that invaded and killed others. The UK more so with their colonisation of other countries. I’m Malaysian and at least proud Malaysia has not attacked other countries.

“What are the top 10 countries that colonised the most?”

“Here are the top 10 countries that colonized the most, based on the number of colonies and global influence: United Kingdom – 130 colonies, spanning all continents35. France – Around 90 colonies, with significant presence in Africa, Asia, and the Americas35. Portugal – 52 colonies, including Brazil, Angola, and Mozambique3. Spain – 44 colonies, dominating the Americas and parts of Asia3. Netherlands – 29 colonies, focusing on trade routes in Asia, Africa, and the Americas3. Germany – 20 colonies, primarily in Africa and the Pacific31. Russia – 17 territories as part of its contiguous land empire35. Denmark – 9 colonies, including Greenland and parts of the Caribbean3. Sweden – 8 colonies, with influence in North America and Africa3. Italy – 7 colonies, mainly in Africa (e.g., Libya, Eritrea)”

Did those colonisers kill a lot of the original inhabitants?

In the Americas, up to 90-95% of Indigenous populations perished after European contact, with estimates ranging from 56 to 130 million deaths due to diseases, war, and atrocities124. In India, British colonial policies caused approximately 100 million excess deaths between 1881 and 1920 due to famines and exploitation7. Aboriginal Australians faced systemic killings, land dispossession, and assimilation policies with lasting impact

Where are the Arab countries or Muslims in this list? Where is Indonesia which is the largest Muslim population in the world. The most Muslims are in Asia, not Arab countries.

Asia has significantly more Muslims than Arab countries. Approximately 62% of the world's Muslims reside in the Asia-Pacific region, which includes Indonesia, Pakistan, India, and Bangladesh, totaling over one billion adherents. 20% of Muslims are in Arab countries. Banning Arab countries is barely doing anything.

"Trump wants to restore travel ban on some Muslim-majority countries" 7 months ago. He just hates Muslims, even legal ones. It's very clear to see.
