Humans have an absolute mental block about learning from their past it seems.
Remember the McCarthy era of the late 40s and early 50s?
And before that the Salem witch hunts?

The Cancel Culture Is Alive And Well
by minimus inif you don’t support certain ideas or beliefs, you may find yourself on the losing end in business, money matters, and community.
curt schilling, a former red sox player who is conservative today reported how his insurance company suddenly dropped him even though he was an excellent consumer with them because of his “ views”.
he was marked by those in charge and evidently was told by the rep he knew that they didn’t like his political views.

Do You Support Trump Being Impeached Again?
by minimus init looks like it can happen again and i suspect if it does happen, the senate will not convict either because they can’t convict him since it’s after his presidency or simply because they don’t have sufficient votes..

thank you pistolpete!
So it isnt a hard no on running again if one is impeached.
This makes it even stranger as to why Pelosi is riding her horse so hard.

By any objective comparison, anything Trump said was milder, certainly no worse, than what many many other politicians have said, most of them on the left. They have actually called for violence and when the violence happened they claim no responsibility for it.

You would think Pelosi would see this is going to overshadow the Inauguration or does she just not care?
They have to know that Trump isnt going to run again in 4 years....if I can see that from here surely "the powers that be" can?

I thought it was just being done as a political move to insure Trump can't run again in four years? That is one of the provisos attached to being impeached - you cant hold federal office.
Is that correct?
So all the time and TAXPAYER money being used for this impeachment to give the Democrats what they perceive as an advantage in the next election?

Should Difference of Opinion Be Squelched On Sites Such As FB or Twitter?
by minimus ini think that for the most part, dissenting views should be allowed to exist because of free speech principles.
one person may strongly feel that something is true while someone else may present “facts” that support the opposing view.
when that is the case, healthy discussion is mostly productive.

pistolpete have you read "The Art of War" by Sun Tzu?
It's not about war so much as strategy. I think you would like it.

"We dont see things as they are we see them as we are" - quote attributable to varied sources
Most of us here have come out of a controlling religion. Does that make us more easily controlled in the future because the neurons and pathways of memory already exist inside of us?
Or does escaping one trap set by men make us extremely aware of another one when we see it?

I didn't realize my post was vague but I will try to be clearer.
These huge all-encompassing social media monoliths need to enforce their standards equally and they are not.
The "are not" is provable and is the problem.
