do see this. it's a real phenomenon.

the irony is that the 'manly party' is one of the main causes of men not feeling like men. while the 'snowflakes' are the ones more likely to push for better education (affordability), higher wages...things that'd repair these very issues.

you can see it

but the far right (GOP by default) is a ball trap. a death cult. a 3-hole outhouse w/no moon for ventilation (it stinks).

some of that might be helpful. 'tho Facebook, X and the sludge of right-wing morgues (where truth or thought goes to die)* show some have no pride, shame or gray-matter.
additionally, with all the unauthorized, spook behavior of Leon and ilk - maybe a liability.
would prefer some balance.
the fairness doctrine was put there to give people a different perspective. most people try to be fair. like any debate, no one person is going to win them all. and often efficiently culls the hacks EX: Rush Limbaugh tried a TV show but his audience ran him off the air {check out YouTube} ideas were challenged and died on the vine. Rush's vineyard went dry.
plus, believe people would love to hear something new. get the idea Fox audiences are s t a r v e d for some synaptic activity when the former Sec of Trans got a standing O because of it.
it felt good. and not so damn blah-blah-blah.
plus just getting the spectrum of people talking to each, trying to actually solve something, just might provide us the way back to some sense of sanity.

*yeah. no group has corner the market on bad brains - but the per capita is defiantly skewed toward the far right.

another head scratcher/gut churner/soul sighing show. it's way over time to get some patrols on the 'information highway'. the web of lies/undue social influence/bias reporting/echo chambers and general nastiness needs some lines of (lack of a better word) decency that nary be crossed.
it's been done before.
'fire in a crowed theater' put some measurement on of the definition of 'free speech'. there is a line where 'free speech' fails to be freedom & becomes the dungeons of despair.
it's a tough subject to gauge, but do trust caring* people can draw a 'line-in-the-sand' so young people don't kill themselves over cyber bulling. or hyper-partisan yodels don't attack random INNOCENT people. or where honesty and a love of variable facts becomes a touchstone.
it needs to happen.
this would be the (past) time to get all types together and hammer out some guidelines. Maybe, use existing laws. change the 230(#?) shield limits. AI monitoring. or have civil suits to sue, sue, and sue until the posting of anything that comes into a person's head, meets a reality check.
not against the exchange of ideas, challenges of the norms, or any free speech of merit (or even some of dubious value) -but just getting us out of the muck of the 'muddy minimum-maintenance roadway of disinformation'.
peace.


*extend that to all of the 'sick-of-this-s*it' folk)

This reminds me of another uncomfortable interview: https://youtu.be/bUhZmO6P0NU?si=hZ7GdaajxaAQc-H6&t=902

Gaddafi knew some English, but the reticence of the translator - - - told a different story than what M.G. was laying down.

naw pa.

after the fine speech, one might hate whatshisname - but the speech isn't hate speech.

hate speech is based on hate, elicits hate, and promotes hate. it's venom thru out.

this isn't it. it's factual and actual, and only elicits disdain after the truth is laid bare. being unable to bear it, doesn't make it what you want it to be.

here's a link* to how truthful, honest, and insightful this cat is...

RE: things that don't age well

if'n could find it (was on YouTube), David Letterman interviewed Colin Powell, & Colin told a story about Ronald Reagan [after the announcement of R.R. diagnosis]. David interpreted the story as a cruel remembrance; evidence of Reagan's advancing Alzheimer's - but Colin meant it as a tribute to Ron's ability to put things into perspective. involved Reagan ignoring Powell's briefing to feed the W.H. lawn squirrels. the story was met w/a v e r y silent audience. & it made me question Colin's ability to see the trees in the forest.

note: Even before the announcement, 2nd year of 2nd term, Reagan's infirmity was evident.

one of the worst parts of that was the officer asking...

"where's the other one?"

am aware of the adage 'can't make it drink' & y'all being one dehydrated horse

but, does anything ever quiver - shake - hum in your cognizance? as if something is trying to get attention?

most folks like to look at themselves in a mirror before they go out in public. check for stains - zippers - or anything that might give others the impression they're careless or slovenly.

y'all are acting like a vampire looking in a mirror.

because...

that 'peace' is torpid acuity.

but this is a ruse too.

the split between two halves of the same esurient pack of jackals can only be a gift IF they spend their energy against each other to allow their quarry to reevaluate their situation (escape).

we want the best for you; not get the best of you.

we hate to see you live that way; not see you live the way of hate.

we are not looking to 'save' you but want you to save you from yourself.

seriously.
