RE: The Chernobyl Netflix Series Is A Political Propaganda

That wasn't my takeaway. I thought it was very well done. Maybe what we take away from the series depends on the perspective we go into it with. What I saw this series attacking was not the Soviet Union

RE: The Road To Tyranny: The US Constitution & The Death Of Democracy (Part I)

I too believe that we would be in a much better place today had we stayed with the Articles rather than the new constitution. We would have engaged in much less war precisely because the Articles made

RE: Public discussion about bitcoin reveals economic illiteracy

Makes me sad. Those are people to whom the United States should be a beacon, a leader, a light showing the rest of the world how to have an open, peaceful country. We should see the people in those videos

RE: ICO's Are Revolutionising Addiction

Just like porn. Used to be you had to shuffle off to the dingy sad little porn shack and rub elbows with other degenerates. Now? Delivered fresh to your computer, anything you want! No more getting in

When we are all awake, aware that a particular narrative is being pushed, then like water we can flow around whatever is put in our way and make it irrelevant. We can't take TV remotes out of people's
