Yet in reality nothing will likely change and if anything they’d be better off The same can be said about trumpers if Biden gets reelected. They argue that it’ll be the end of the country. The fact is, the country is already dying. You really have a difficult time acknowledging the whole picture. This is the effects of extremism. Thankfully, I’m immune to its ill effects. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that’s what the liberals want you to think. I can remember when a preferred liberal lifestyle was just this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's up to Americans to follow whatever they want and make their own decisions based on what they see or read. I don't believe that Trump can win in November. As I have been saying all along I think that he is carrying to much baggage. I'm not so sure on that. Apathy for politics and just following along to fit in with the narrative drives many. Mix that in with a strong outspoken leftist media and propaganda reigns supreme. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ignore most US media outlets and prefer Reuters. It might not be perfect but they seem much less biased than the US media Who do you think their source is?

ActionfigureJoe Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 1 minute ago, Steve753 said: Nevada? I have three plots. One in northern AZ. Another in central NM. A third in Utah. Need perc testing and some finagling with water easement before I decide. All are 5 acres or a little more. I’m leaning toward AZ as it sits along public land and taxation is great. NM has some weird taxation on retirement, but I really like the area. It’s near Silver City. Utah water easements are becoming more of a struggle than I realized. I’ve almost ruled out Utah. It’s a sellers market in Utah so I can make a few bucks if I sell. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Them and AP, both part of the trusted news initiative and extreme left. All are owned by Vanguard and Blackrock, so is Fox News. You need to ditch them and go with the independents who are not muzzled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was riddled with political extremism on several sides of the political spectrum. It also played out in China and the fall of several dynasties. It occurred in India. Through Europe and Eurasia too. It’s all the same. This is what happens when empires die. There’s no stopping it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is how extreme we are. Local news personality was on a radio news show this morning. He was ranting about how he got his ballot and they made him stand in the designated line for the party you were voting with. He knows damn well it is going to get out and he will be labeled a liberal or a maga . Either way he will lose half his audience. If he gets canceled from local news, I will know which side he votes for. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Russia, China, India, and various countries in Europe are teetering on the edge. The world is so interconnected economically it’ll mean a domino effect of failed states when America furthers its implosion. Civil unrest will be the main cause in all these countries.

You’re not going to get an argument from me. We accelerated our demise by opening the borders and letting people flood in. If we are the worlds lifeboat, we have sunk it . George Orwell was a smart son of bitch. We have become a Nation of liars and pussies. This is the FBI for Christ sakes. We would rather embrace lies than admit and confront uncomfortable truths.
