The tone of this insinuates we’re all idiots for thinking there hasn’t been a leveraging of technologies across society to infringe upon our personal freedoms and privacy.

Also the article seems to suggest the very thing you’re saying it doesn’t.

Amazon tip: if the book is abnormally expensive and not readily available buy it and read it.

Not enough.

Like everyone else, appreciate the things he says you agree with and release everything else.

The options aren’t hero worship or cancel culture. We need to get away from this binary thinking.

How my definition of success has evolved:

Teens: soccer

20’s: money

Early 30’s: professional achievement

Late 30’s: family

Yea. I was joking with a friend that I’ve removed a lot of people from my favorites list in the phone feature over the last two years.

To your point though, it’s been hard…it’s akin to people you care about dying.

This summarizes some recent thoughts of my own well.

I like watching women’s soccer, probably the most entertaining of the women’s sports but it’s objectively worse than men’s in every category, speed, flair, strength.

Crazy that you can’t say that in public.

I found one of these as well in my tomatoes the other day. Thanks for naming it for me.

Most of the products in our lives that are evidence of humans dominion over nature are actively killing us.

- wireless headphones (causes tinnitus)

- glyphosate (causes cancer)

- fluoride (disables cognitive abilities)

- microplastics (causes infertility)

And the list goes on and on…

That’s called a nightmare

You know who would have a killer opening ceremony? Sodom and Gomorrah.

Can you imagine the debauchery and creativity?

So if Trump wins the left won’t cause any violence?

Alrighty, I’ll check back in on this thread if that fateful day comes.

Yea I’ve heard the media make that argument. But let me guess you probably also voted for the guy who was shut down from running for president in the 90’s because he was a known plagiarist.

I don’t love everything Trump says or does but I at least can understand what he is saying and know it’s coming from his own brain.

You’re right that time Trump mandated people to get an experimental vaccine or lose their jobs was very dictatorial.

Or that other time when Trump called half the country extremist based on their Christian religion, that was also very dictatorial.

Or that time Trump used his DOJ to target his main political opponent during an election…

Oh wait, these were all Biden aka his handlers.

Well as long as Reuters said it I’m sure it’s true, the media has rarely ever taken anything Trump says out of context to create tension and confusion…

Very sad what’s happening in Venezuela but it’s pretty hard to map a dictator ignoring the vote count and exit polling by bringing in the military to Trump challenging the veracity of the voting process (like dems did in 2016) which led to a protest in DC which led to protestors in the capitol building.

Ideologies boiled down:

Right: I want the individual freedoms to choose my path.

Left: I want freedoms contained to control what others can pursue.

There are a lot of things happening in the world of which the root cause can be debated but one thing is clear.

The masses are focusing less on improving themselves and more on how to improve others.

This is one of the many things different about this community that I appreciate.
