    Don't wait for the rapture.

    There are so many red flags and more info coming out every week. For one, the spike in excess mortality that is continuing and not covid-related should cause concern for everyone. I just hope people will do more research before they take any more jabs. Start listening to the "other side" -...

    What does the left really stand for now?

    Antifa is now nothing. They're the ones that "collapsed so dramatically" in the interviewer's question imo - PC: I have spent a lot of time trying to work out exactly why the left/anarchist scene collapsed so dramatically as a force for resistance in the Spring of 2020. Do you have any...

    What does the left really stand for now?

    Actually he's an author that was writing about these things before social media even existed. Glad you asked. I'll find the video and post it here.

    What does the left really stand for now?

    Yes, like the high gas prices killing Americans living paycheck-to-paycheck because "we're fighting for the liberal world order".

    What does the left really stand for now?

    I saw the same thing with Obama worship and adoption of violent activist attitudes with Antifa. Yes, among the establishment politicians anyway. I don't recall many R speaking out against the jab mandates, for example, and that was very disturbing to me. While Trump advocated the "right to...

    What does the left really stand for now?

    Not sure you saw the same statement by Griffin? He talks about the "surface" stuff that is presented to show a supposed difference in the parties. Things that don't really impact us where we live, but keep us fighting each other though neither of us will gain anything. But then, underneath...

    What does the left really stand for now?

    Which is why it isn't really left/right but collectivism/individualism. Fascists and Communists both are collectivists in their idealogy. The right in America are individualists.

    What does the left really stand for now?

    Enforcement isn't their duty. Their duty is to pass clear laws with limited boundaries, not write blank checks to alphabet people who are unelected and unaccountable to the people.

    What does the left really stand for now?

    They're the ones wanting the constitution to be viewed as a living/breathing document, so that the justices effectively become a legislative branch. They're the ones making people think the alphabet agencies (EPA, BLM, OSHA, etc...) can legislate as well, but they can't - Congress can't...

    What does the left really stand for now?

    Possibly, but I don't see it as "Trumpist" so much as anti-establishment politics-as-usual. What I observed as a conservative under 8 years of Obama was the R politicians always fighting for us, but never winning, to the point it started seeming like a power-sharing wink-wink game. In...

    What does the left really stand for now?

    That's one of the major sea changes from my viewpoint. They've become hard-line authoritarians. That can't end well for anyone, including them.

    What does the left really stand for now?

    I was so impacted by Griffin's left-right paradigm that I'm not sure "voting" at the federal level is worth much, in the sense that the elites pre-picked nominees are lined up before us to select from. So no matter which one we choose, we've chosen their person. I've heard the best approach...

    What does the left really stand for now?

    I agree. I'm at the tail end of the boomer generation and remember what things used to be like. Very different animal now. I remember Buffet's comment that in his day people voted for people they liked. Now they vote against people they hate.

    What does the left really stand for now?

    That alienation can be manipulated too. I think that's one of the points brought out in the interview that made sense of things to me. You remember Michael Moore's 2016 Trump speech - it wasn't so much that Trump was their friend, but that he was the enemy of their enemy (the elites...

    What does the left really stand for now?

    It seemed to align with what I saw with my own eyes.

    What does the left really stand for now?

    Sometimes I think the centrists on both sides are closer to each other than to their own far-left/right comrades. And sometimes I wish a viable third party - a centrist party - would come out of all this. I think it would go far in helping the effects of the extreme polarization we now see.

    What does the left really stand for now?

    Here's the full interview if anyone is interested. I posted the part that intrigued me above. I Am Done With The Left-Right Divide

    What does the left really stand for now?

    Honest question if anyone cares to enlighten me as I've been a bit confused lately. I'm old enough to remember what they used to stand for. They were the ones usually against war and mainly protested against the establishment and globalist organizations like the WTO. It's almost like I...

    For the first time in my life...

    Can you tackle it from the other angle? Instead of focusing on reducing calories, start expending more? Even just walking can really make a difference. I remember when mom was in a rehab I was having to do so much running around to get her things, etc... that the pounds just started coming...

    You Are Right - I Am Wrong

    It can be very hard. I remember an exchange I had on a discussion forum with another Christian. It wasn't a pleasant feeling that came over me when I started to realize he was right and I was wrong. But I couldn't resist the sound logic and reasoning from scripture and the passages that...
