In a criminal trial, if you are found "guilty," jail time is in some cases a possibility.
In a civil lawsuit, jail is never a possibility, money changing hands is usually the worst that can happen.

Of course, if absurd judges and juries order absurd amounts of recompense with minimal evidence (as can be the case in "he said / she said" cases like Trump's rape case), it can still suck. But no one has been found "guilty," and no one is going to jail.

These are the facts, no matter how many clueless liberals lie and obfuscate. The ignorance of the left can truly boggle the mind. They are deranged creatures.

It is sad that such derangement can afflict our fellow country persons. But for us to heal from this terrible affliction, forgiveness and self reflection are in order with the season.

The liberals don't believe in forgiveness. They believe in mass graves for those they disagree with.

Ask the Russians how that turned out in 1917.

It comes down simply to if Murdoch and judge Kaplan said something you don't like, you distort the words. It seems you are able to fool yourselves. The truths, however, remain said.

Butler's hypocrisy is eye watering.

Yes, he's afflicted with a psychological obsession. It's called Trump derangement syndrome. A hatred so deep that it's penetrated the depths of hell and projects it outwards. I'm not an advocate for Trump and if he was as good as he'd like to say he is, then he'd have plenty of people who could independently work. But he centralizes everything into a cult of personality and it's reasonable for an American to dislike this and oppose it. But reason has disappeared from politics.

I will never get used to BB's or the rest of the left's hypocrisy.

This forum is mostly dead, but just some final thoughts...

America is done. Finished, Toast. But like a cockroach whose head is chopped off, still scurries about for a while. It's momentum, that's all. Ray Dalio proves how the US is in decline, in favor of an emergent China, who will become the great global superpower and hold the world's reserve currency.

"Principles for Dealing with the Changing World Order: Why Nations Succeed and Fail"

America's power relies on its "exorbitant privilege" as reserve currency, where it can print and spend to infinity and beyond, thereby funding the technology that backs its military power. This is coming to an end. In the absence of technology, America does not have the capacity to crank out huge numbers of tanks, planes and ships needed to win a slugfest, after all the nukes have been deployed. China does, and Russia might be better at it than the US; their doctrine has always been to crank out large numbers of cheap tanks. America has few facilities that can produce chips, planes, ships and tanks, all easily targeted by nukes. The US advantage lies in the high tech that will be in short supply during a full scale war. Unlike WWII, the US will not be out-of-reach from attack to any existing manufacturing or tech base.

America's armed forces are in a sorry state, falling victim to the woke generation. Woke generals command the branches and brain-dead millennials fill the ranks. Take a look at who will be fighting the next war. While the woke press likes to make fun of Russians fleeing the country and avoiding service, just wait until America gets into a serious fight. They will flee by the millions to Canada or Mexico, finding every excuse not to have to fight.

Just look at the photo of those recruits. America is toast.

So you all can play your board games and move your theoretical chess pieces around, pretending you know how the world works, but the time will come when reality bites. I hope you have a Plan B, and exit strategy. The macro picture is clear. America is toast.

Finally John likes to brag that his predictions around Generational Dynamics were "true or trending true". He hasn't talked about this for a while, and it's clear that statement is false, given Russia's alignment with BRICS, new currency regimes, cooperation with Saudis and China, and India. So John's alignments for the "coming clash of civilizations" are false or trending false. So GD is a dead-end theory, with limited value, hence why this forum is dead. Dalio's thesis does have generational components and that's probably how GD should be looked at - as a component, not as a thing that rules them all.

The man was ahead of his time.

Remember, because other countries don't have X, Y or Z, it doesn't make the US good. Who would fight for this cesspool of a culture, controlled by the Deep State and elite who actively hate the most prosperous of citizens?

As I pointed out long ago, if we can't actually predict anything, why do we fake like we can? China has been "collapsing" for over 20 years, right? LOL, America is. The Constitution has been thrown to the dustbin. Now it's just a question of how bad it gets.

Murdock said the My Pillow commercials were run on Fox for monetary reasons. It is called capitalism. How is what he said a lie? I accept his statement. How am I fooling myself?

Judge Kaplan concluded that Trump raped Carroll contrary to New York law. The jury concluded that Trump sexually assaulted Carroll pursuant to New York law. I accept the conclusions of the judge and jury. I accept that you concluded Trump raped Carroll. Do I accept the evidence within either conclusion as "beyond a reasonable doubt" or as "clear and convincing"? No. How am I fooling myself?

Guilty: culpable of or responsible for a specified wrongdoing.

Conservatives will contort themselves to deny the obvious. Rather than admit the truth, they will double down on the lies. I am still curious. What will it take for them to admit truth?

I agree that society would work better if people (on both sides) believed things that are true.

One of the most damaging lies created by the left is that Trump called neo-nazis and white supremacists fine people. It’s easy to verify that Trump didn’t call neo-nazis and white supremacists fine people, and in fact condemned them. Yet, there are people who still believe the lie created by the leftist media.

This and many other lies originating from the left have done a great amount of damage to the country.

Who is the ultimate arbiter of "truth?" Isn't the official post-modernist position that there is no "truth," that everyone has their own "truth?" (Yes, it is).
But today's progressive has moved way past that. There is now an absolute truth, and it is whatever any progressive or "oppressed" entity says it is. Any views espoused by conservatives cannot possibly be true, by definition. That is the position to which we've descended.

First, that is not the statement by Murdoch I'm concerned with. That is one way you are fooling yourself, presenting a false argument as if it is relevant. Second, Murdock said Fox News lied for profit. I believe he knows more about Fox News policy than you, and I am defending his words under oath. I see it consistent with his paying $787 Million to avoid a forced lawsuit settlement.

If you expect those levels of proof in a civil lawsuit you simply do not know the law.
