What we are talking about here are opposing opinions. The problem is that few have an actual opinion about things. This would require thought and facts and truth. Most people (especially leftists and globalists) don't have opinions. An opinion is based on fact and truths know and put together a certain way. Instead, most have fantasies, visions implanted by propagandists and controllers for their own benefit, not the peoples'. As suck, you can't defend another's fantasies because its complete BS. Such as it is without our current situation. There is little fact. The left pushes things like "Walls don't work!" or "Walls are immoral." BS. You can't defend someone's right to a fantasy. Its BS.

As soon as the economy implodes and 3/4 of the American people pull their heads out of their rectal orifice, that will be the "Great Awakening" and not before.

Governments that go more into national debt deeper every year, have to adopt socialism polices more and more to gain the sweeping powers needed to manage the austerity measures it takes to keep providing the social programs long term of healthcare, welfare and social security, that these debts have greatly undermined.

The government has to run more and more of the economy, the businesses and the personal lives of its constituents, so people don't realize how bad things are getting, so it becomes illegal and a national security threat to undermine the efforts of the government to keep things stable(to big to fail).

In this day and age, instead of nationalizing more and more of everything so that the government can do its job of protecting and serving, its now the goal to globalize these things, and free speech and the right to defend life, liberty and happiness with deadly force(gun rights)are not in the best interest of spreading global security, to be globally politically correct is more unifying and productive then having and sharing personal views that brings fear to the collective, how ever truthful they maybe, if words or ideas offend and upset people too much, the government are trying so hard to keep them calm and in their fantasy bubble safe spaces, feelings of positivity and making the morally good choices for others without having to live by the consequences of those choices themselves, expecting others to just belt tighten and do that silently far outweigh the importance of facts and reality to be known; when governments are spending so much money and putting so many resources into trying to keep people's heads firmly up their a$$, don't cry out fire in the minds of men in a theater...5aburnit:vlwc:

 Quoting: REYMEGA TRUTH


^^^^thats where you are wrong. You think the derelict and stalled ships that went in little circles if anywhere at all are the sacred cow - those bitty boats and catfish cruisers would not have a pond to putter in or a park at all if it wasn't for serious people of action and resolve that use thier mind for something besides "I pet goat".
The reason people can not speak freely is not because of the tyranny of titans, it is because of the ugliness of squibs.
When everybody has to have a prize for running, there is no champion in a race. When the stupidest and least fortunate sit around thumping "ubuntu" it cancels out the value of everything and destroys variety as all simply look to see if they have one of what every other monkey got.
It is not those who esteemed thier selves and held thier selves up that drag the world down, it is the muddy bottom of the amazon that has built up and sludge drags the bottom of the boats. Now it even has hands ripping the boards of them so they sink down in the mud too.

Not that baboons, the ignoble or sludge even knows or has any idea to be any different, sludge gon' sludge mate, its just so far piled up out of its beds the river changes course and the callow govt, interested only in stealing, summons great forces of nature to dredge the river for them, that they will also claim was never thier fault of stinking.

Oh and just because we do get up everyday and comb our hair, doesn't mean we're going to find a boat or much of one even if we do, but thats just life. Sometimes you have to row a dingy around until you can find a better rig. Its still better than being lost in the mud, especially now that "mud's comforts" have gone poison and its not quiet down there, its rolling and stirring around.

But I just had to point out that the free speech is NOT shut off because of "That's beautiful! Good job!" Olympians, its shut off because of "Look at what I can do" bunch of stewarts and ones so clumsy, dumb and ugly, you believe you'd keep stewart.

That name has been taken by clams already. They can not seem to convince people they have the all weather varnish, calibre or knuckles to hold our own and would immediately dump the country in a well meaning, logical management effort. Wolves would then consume US.
Apparently, the world is never really a "committee of good intentions" it just the decor a bunch of cutthroat pirates insist on with lobster, while they slosh thier eu way through holding back nature in favor of profitable industry for another day. Since all the profit is going to them, people notice more.

No the party of "davos" people are mid tier managers wanting the boat and in reality, that will always be a captain ahab and mid tier management's effort is to keep the ship running despite the course or weather.

i was just using trumps penchant for posting incendiary blurbs on twitter as a degeneration of the level of communication of the american people. of course i cant blame him exclusively as that abbreviated , brusque , incendiary style he embodies has been symptomatic of internet 'trolling' for years. if anything trump is just embodying the zeitgeist and running with it , with quite a bit of success actually.
