    So because I don't agree with you,
    And I can prove things won't go the way you think,
    I'm 'Evil' & 'Corrupt',
    And somehow trying to 'Force' you into doing something you don't want to do?
    You're quite clearly a full fledged democrat and whether you like it or not, your party is pushing for socialism and a long list of other things which are not conducive to a free country. The democrat party is undoubtedly both evil and corrupt, I don't know you personally.

    You can't prove things won't go the way I think because you don't know what I think. I have a bigger issue with your arrogance than your politics.

    I'm just wondering why some people think they will come out smelling like a rose if society collapses?

    Its not happened to any side in any war in history, everybody loses to one degree or another.
    Just wondering why some think they will be the exceptions?
    I don't think anyone with a grip on reality and just a smidge of wisdom believes that it won't. There are just some who believe that risking ones life and security to the freedom of their friends and family is preferable to living the life of a serf.

    I never claimed I would. I want no part of it but there are a hell of a lot of people who won’t stop pushing until they get a reaction. I’ve spent 26 years wearing a uniform and carrying a gun. I much prefer to live out my days in peace but I’ll not sacrifice what I believe in to avoid violence.

    Talk to your people, find moderation and it becomes a non issue. Continued efforts to move toward socialism are guaranteed to cause a lot of heart ache.

    Its a socialist government...
    We live under social contracts, like police departments, courts, municipal utilities & highways, etc...

    Most everything we do is based on a social give & take basis...

    From agreeing on a common currency, to trading that currency for consumables, to educating the young...

    ........

    AND,
    They aren't "My People".

    I'm not a dictator, I don't have the power to force anyone, and even if I did I wouldn't.
    Its a free choice kind of thing...

    Choose to live straight and narrow, work hard, pay taxes that contribute to the country in specific and the world in general...

    Or choose to break the law, do whatever pops into your head, and don't give a second thought to how it effects anyone else.

    ........

    And
    Right Wing, Left Wing... Same Bird.
    The rank & file get lied to constantly...
    The question so few ask is,
    "Where Is The Money Coming From To Finance This Propaganda Campaign Dividing Us?"
    And,
    "What's The End Goal Of Dividing Us?"

    Even when there is a non-violent alternative already in place?

    Its called voting.
    Voting replace bullets...

    Just like labor unions stopped dragging robber barons from being dragged out and killed in front of their families.
    (They remember, that's why they have private armies protecting them, why don't the rest of us remember?)

    Voting doesn't work if you keep voting in the same people screwing you, creating divisions...
    Congress members spend an average of 32 years in office, while the president can make no laws, is subject to review by the supreme court, and spends a maximum of 8 years in office...

    Half of qualified Americans don't vote,
    The other half are divided about 24.5% 'Right', 24.5% 'Left', and 1% over the fences.

    Its my opinion most people are shooting at the wrong targets...
    But I been to the range with 'Citizens' and that's nothing new either! ;)

    It's supposed to be a democratic republic. It used to be a democratic republic. It is not a socialist country, yet. I have chosen a life of straight and narrow. I've paid my taxes since I was 14. I've served both my country and my community without reservation or hesitation because we live in a democratic republic.

    But now I'm a racist. Now I'm a misogynist. Now I'm homophobic. You know why? Because democrats won't leave me alone. It is no longer enough to live and let live, democrats won't be happy until I'm forced to fly a rainbow flag in front of my house, host gay weddings in my barn and take my wife's last name upon marriage. Freedom isn't enough for some people, they feel the need to force their beliefs on others, to force everyone to fund their desires. The government has gotten way too big and democrats still aren't satisfied. Democrats want to strip me of my parental rights. Democrats want to force me to inject substances into my body,

    Our currency is created from thin air, mostly to pay for the unwanted social ****. And maybe you've read some news about the education system and it's associated school boards??

    Government is a generally a socialist\ authoritarian endeavor. It why the founders wanted as little of it as possible yet just enough to maintain an ordered, functional society. Self governance was paramount, but that requires a moral and just citizenry. More than half a century of assaults on that moral foundation and here we are, waiting on the collapse.

    You seem to be confused about motivations and desires. I do not want to fight, but there may come a point that there is no other alternative than to do so or live as a subject rather than citizen.

    There comes a point when voting doesn't serve its intended purpose. The Germans voted the Nazis into power and we know how that ended. The problem is, we have a growing morally rudderless electorate that don't want to live within the confines of the constitution and elect those who promise to ignore or subvert it to give them what they want.

    You can't prove things won't go the way I think because you don't know what I think. I have a bigger issue with your arrogance than your politics.

    Democrat or Progressive?
    Or is that something the far right doesn't make a distinction on?

    So, cover the facts here...
    You can't put crap back into a donkey, so going back to pre-WWII, or immediately after WWII can't be done.

    Not that any minority and half the demographic majority would let you take the country back to segregation or any of that other crap...

    AND,
    Unless there is a WWIII, the US will never have the economic boom time of WWII/post WWII when the US was rebuilding Europe (at enormous profit).

    Clearly, what's passed for leadership over the past 60 years I've been alive isn't working since we find out collective selves in the state we are in...

    Since we can't go back in time, and what's currently happening is causing serious divisions,
    Wouldn't at least trying something new be on the table?
    (progression, evolution, moving in a different direction)

    I mean seriously,
    We aren't driving 6 MPG vehicles from the 40s-50s,
    We aren't flying those airplanes,
    We have burned up most of the shallow, easy to extract natural resources, so those aren't coming back...

    I see crap loads of 'Conservitives' spending infinite verbage, but not one single new idea or direction to move from them...

    ........

    I'm failing to see much I want to 'Conserve' currently,
    Other than the principals of the Constitution and the idea of the rule of law...

    16th century coal powered economies when non- or low polluting alternatives are available in the 21st century,

    Medieval medical and religious dogma/punishments trying to be forced back on us,

    A peasant class that has no rights, ruling class that has no restrictions, not subject to laws,

    Rumor, superstition, conspiracy propaganda passing for facts & science...

    All wealth, capital & power concentrated at the top 1% while the people doing the actual work are nearly homeless...

    Top 2%-3% taxed little or nothing while the people that can least afford it taxed the most...

    And while we are discussing 'Rights',
    Why does the government and religious groups pour billions into other countries while basic, life sustaining medical care subject to 'Capitolism' rules in this country?
    Shouldn't basic, live sustaining medical care be included in 'Human Rights' (or 'God Given Rights') in the richest country on the planet?

    Unless you admit the wealth is concentrating at the top, and they don't pay taxes, and the premise of 'Christian Charity' doesn't exist without strings attached, which makes it NOT charity...

    I'm not saying I have all the answers,
    But I'm old enough to know what has t worked since the 60s still isn't working today!
    Same thing over & over, expecting different results...

    (some clipping went on to get to the point)
    The problem is, we have a growing morally rudderless electorate that don't want to live within the confines of the constitution and elect those who promise to ignore or subvert it to give them what they want.

    This IS the point...
    We have elected the same LAW MAKERS for an average of 32 years,
    It was 36 years until the last election cycle.

    Those that weren't completely corrupt when they went into office are completely corrupted by the money, power & privilege in short order.

    Full well knowing this, we still RE-ELECT these people over & over again, but expect different results!
    The president only gets a maximum of 8 years...

    We also don't demand absolute responsibility/accountability to the people they are supposed to be representing.
    They get by with things you or me would wind up in jail if we did...


    The president gets all the focus...
    The president can't make a law, that's 100% the Congress.

    Congress also has 100% control of the government budget and yet we blame the president.

    Recently I heard someone blaming fuel costs on the president...
    Well, that's capitalism, oil companies saw an oppertunity to sell US oil abroad and they did, and that drove prices up.

    They saw an oppertunity to drive prices up further by saying they lost production during the COVID shutdown, so essentially the consumer is being gouged for perceived losses due to low demand,
    Even though capacity to refine hasn't changed...

    They didn't have costs on product they didn't buy or refine, distribute,
    They just didn't make as much profit as they wanted, so now we are making up those imaginary 'Losses' they didn't have.

    Its price gouging, but the oil companies have so many bought & paid for Congress members we won't be represented in any investigation.

    I'm pretty big on accountability,
    If you gouge and steal, you should go to jail.
    Any Congress member that doesn't support an investigation is an accomplice and should go to jail.
    That goes for state as well as federal...

    If you want to complain about someone, at least get the correct perceived 'Offense' on the correct person.

    Odd that the level of division and chaotic nature of our existence in this country seems directly proportional to the level influence progressives have in politics. But yeah, we should try more of that.

    The first few paragraphs I can agree with.

    The president does make laws, although he's not constitutionally granted that power. Vaccine mandates anyone? Part of the reason for this is that Congress was too lazy to do their jobs so they sloughed it off to some federal bureau under the executive branch. Now the preponderance of federal rule making happens outside our elected leadership.

    This is also how the president affects gas prices. By the stroke of a pen, policy changes are enacted that distort the market and voilà prices go up or down.

    You also dont seem to understand how markets work. Oil companies don't set prices, they bring a product to market at a price set by rules of supply and demand. I guess they could control prices by manipulating supply like opec, but they aren't allowed to do that here. That's really frowned on by the sec.

    Now if you want to look at some really shady ****, take a look at the green energy industry.

    *for the record, neither will Republicans.

    Well, that was slanted...

    Draft? Not unless there is a dire national emergency...
    Simply because you get higher motivation from 2 or 3 time volunteers,
    And, you can still reject the unsuitable with volunteers.

    The last thing we need in the military is another round of lowering the standards, unmotivated or down right insufficient in intelligence level draftees making a mess of things.
    (Search "Mcnamara's Morons" to put anybody in boots on the ground during Viet Nam or lowering standards during the current 20 years of war where gangs, criminals, etc screwed things up even more)

    Should we deport undocumented residents from the US...

    Again, loaded question.
    How about should we change immigration laws to keep the US raised, educated that have no criminal records for decades,
    AND, make it easier for alien worker visas so we can hire people legally that can cross the border back home between jobs entitled US citizens won't do...

    No options other than far right talking head/paid pundit gibberish that presents no answers to the issues we have.

    Should US raised, US educated undocumented with no criminal record be allowed a path to citizenship?
    Absolutely.
    This is the motivated bunch we should be looking for, someone that actually WANTS to take citizenship classes, get that green card, become a full citizen, go to work and better themselves.

    On the other hand,
    The lazy, criminal element can't go over the border fast enough for me...
    (And take some of the trailer park bunch/thug wannabes with them)

    What two CONSENTING ADULTS do in the bedroom, baring serious damage, is nobody else's business.
    Read that CONSENTING ADULTS again, and think about the "Persuit Of Happiness" the Constitution has...
    If they *Think* it will make them happy, and there isn't a time getting hurt, it's covered in the Constitution.

    I could go on, but what's the point?
    It was obviously designed to direct the leaning right to the far right because they aren't 'Extreme Enough',
    To steer a 'Republican In Name Only' into being a full on extreme right by insultingly calling them a 'Democrat' or 'Liberal' (or much worse...)

    ...........

    Its about solutions, not talking points designed to instill maximum outrage or fear in this or that demographic...

    No ideas, no time for the same old crap propaganda that has nothing to offer.

    If you can't dazzle them with brilliance, then baffle them with bull crap.
    Nothing new in the slightest...

    Odd that the level of division and chaotic nature of our existence in this country seems directly proportional to the level influence progressives have in politics. But yeah, we should try more of that.

    That's backwards...

    Any society has to progress, adapt new technologies, progress to compete or lag behind in everything in the world.

    Communists are conservatives, that's why they can't build a reasonable vehicle, can't get a reasonably functioning power grid, medical care is substandard, ect.
    They don't adapt CONSTRUCTIVELY to changes...

    And as pointed out before but ignored,
    There aren't any conservatives on Mt. Rushmore...
    There weren't any 'Conservatives' signing the Declaration Of Indipendence, the US Constitution or the Bill Of Rights.
    That fact is ironically ignored by most of those people complaining about perceived loss 'Freedoms'.

    Not everything new is going to work out beyond expectations, or even smoothly.
    That's the nature of adapting to something new, but the advantages are staying ahead of the curve.

    Conservatives cling onto what we already know doesn't work, proven over the last 60 years I know about.

    Discounting nostalgia,
    Would you accept 1960 standard of medical care?

    How about a 6 mile to the gallon, no power anything, drum brake, breaker point ignition, no AC 1960 vehicle now?

    How about going back to rotary, land line phones, no internet, ect?

    Yes, there are bugs with anything new.
    No, not everything new is "The Devil's Work".

    Not dramatic enough, I know, and it doesn't fit on a bumper sticker...

    It's better I die on my feet than live on my knees.

    Or the third option,
    Stop voting for people working against you causing most of the problems...

    I mean that's literally why we have a Constitution, rule of law, ect.
    So no one has to die to get anything changed.

    But that's not extremist enough and doesn't fit on a bumper sticker or meme, so it's not 'Popular'...

    I'm not sure composting paper towels is a 'GO'...
    Plain white is probably OK, brown would be better since it's not bleached.
    I wouldn't attempt to compost anything with chemicals or grease on them.

    Depends on what you use the compost for.
    I don't compost anything that will carry any toxins into my food supply and I don't have separate compost piles for gardens and decorative shrubs/lawn.

    No chemicals, glossy/colored paper, no meat eating animal parts/waste or grease...

    Meat, bone, fat, hair, guts all compost fine, if you know what you are doing. It's mother nature's God's way. ;)

    What do you think happens to all the critters that pass away in the woods and water as they have forever, the same as humans?

    I totally plan to compost my enemies... :)

    I don't have decades or even centuries to wait until those things listed are safe for current human consumption...

    And since evolution has been so slow with my much needed third hand, I don't have much hope to evolve a digestive system that allows me to digest things that are currently harmful to me this late in the game.

    Pretty much the same reason I don't wash food in water headed to the septic system...

    Even if it were 'Safe', the smell alone would put me off dinner...

    Talk about gaslighting and false dicotomies.

    Right, like I said; You gotta know what you are doing.

    That might be tough for those that already know everything, and just a little bit more? ;)
