Re: trump off the CO ballot

MM, you've already been debunked on this argument. It is bad form to march it out again without new supporting evidence. If by "debunked" you mean "someone disagreed", yeah. yup, not a 'gotcha' thing at all. Glad to have a venting opportunity, MM. And, yes...modernity raised liv...

Re: Weather

in the comments of the first one, they said dozens of workers were in the building when it hit. All survived. (They must have had school desks to duck under.) The one that tried to get me snapped all the power poles as i watched. Water everywhere. (Prez saw some moisture here) The lines were live, i...

Re: trump off the CO ballot

It's a nice ride for a while, once you decide to max-out your credit cards. For that matter, it's a safer bet to be friends with the mob than to be their victim. In ww2, life is better being a Nazi than a Jew. More fun to eat the fruit than to pick it. I'd rather live here as well, though a reckonin...

Re: trump off the CO ballot

The 'rhetoric' that hurts America is yours, if what you're saying is that things are fine. They aren't. They're getting worse, fast. The two parties are indistinguishable; the media censored to the truth; whistle-blowers shuttered away...why do we have the most prisoners? The most drug addicts' and ...

Re: trump off the CO ballot

More and more power goes to unelected and covert actors whom face zero accountability. What voice do we have to counter our military activities? That's the American democracy that concerns me. (and the disgraceful supreme court) 9/11 was used as an excuse to do mass surveillance and allow Citizen's ...

Re: trump off the CO ballot

as far as i know, our electoral process is particularly non-democratic compared to other modern democracies. the electoral college sux; gerrymandering and redistricting; vote on a work day, not a day off; no rank choice or mandatory voting like Australia...our process weeds out the will of the peopl...

Re: trump off the CO ballot

i shudder to think i'm praising Trump.

we may have it good, but at a high price. it feels utterly unsustainable. media plays into the darkness, as does the climate.
but it's the sword rattling that bothers me most. it's what we're doing elsewhere that's trouble. empire in its hospice phase.

Re: trump off the CO ballot

How about we get in a shooting war with China over Taiwan? You won't. America won't risk annihilation for an island full of Chinese and will back down. if i was worried about such stuff, i'd worry with Biden in power. Look at him! Think he has gobs of will to live? Anyway, he just appropriated a sh...
