n a way, Marx was right. The only way to force a king, czar or dictator out of power is through force, through revolution. Alas, what he got wrong was that the revolutionaries would advocate power for the revolutionaries, not for the people. If you don’t insert the Enlightenment principles in the re...

Re: Cycles
The conservatives always collapse. The problem is solved. America improves. Colonial imperialism no more, slavery no more, authoritarian expansion resisted, bigotry resisted. It is the conservatives who end up getting eaten.Guest wrote: ↑Wed Mar 27, 2024 2:21 pmThe Left always eats its own.

:shock: Why America will not survive much longer. Welcome to leftist America. Death is the only way out. America does not remain the same. Every S&H crisis the conservatives try to maintain the problem, the progressives try to fix it, the conservatives fail, and in the following high the new values...

Applause
No one should be applauding what has happened to Trump or his associates. Our country is so divided that we should all be sure we are standing for the "traditional" rule of law and we should not be accepting any ruling that has politicized the law no matter what side of the political spectrum we ar...

Russia v Ukraine
Putin is preparing for a full-scale war against NATO countries, - Institute for the Study of War (ISW). Putin is struggling to fight Ukraine to a standstill. It takes a lot less effort to threaten NATO than to fight it. I think any further expansion will wait on Ukraine's fall and will not be again...

In 1995, America was doing so well economically that even liberals lost sight of things beyond consumerism. Who cares about community, meaning, heritage, identity, when the Pepsi-Cola tastes so good? And look, Windows 95 is a terrific improvement on Windows 3.1 - this society works! Everything is g...

Terminating AI?
The Terminator is a Hollywood Arnold Schwarzenegger adventure movie based on sentient programs spontaneously coming into existence. Associating artificial intelligence with nuclear weapon authorization would be dumb, associated only with Hollywood. Makes for an interesting if absurd premise. As a s...

The Environment
I'm not referring to global warming, but something more along the lines of environmental damage and pollution. Agreed with the concern, but part of a larger environmental emphasis. Has anyone compared the number of deaths associated with fires in CA and HI, Hurricanes in FL and TX, increased tornad...

Collapse of the Conservatives
Can't make this up. Confirmed liar (signed off on Russiagate, Biden laptop-denier) John Brennan now saying Trump probably can't be trusted enough to get traditional security briefings once he gets nomination. Praying to God for Trump win and congressional sweep so all this stinking corruption can b...

Re: Interference
The laptop was a Russian forgery, election interference. Does it sound likely to you that a repair shop would give away without permission a user's information with no attempt to erase, and give it immediately to a political rival? This is clear evidence of the Russians and Republicans working to i...
