its the tyranny of the minority forcing identity politics which inherently narcissistic where everyone now thinks they are special and entitled and democracy, rule of the majority, needs to be destroyed for them.

Go find places where government is weak and you have lawlessness, because humans are still members of the animal kingdom, and individuals want dominance in the most tribalistic way. .

First, they came for the person in the next town, and you said nothing. Then they came for the person on the next block, and you said nothing. When they came for your neighbor, you said nothing. And then they came for you, and no one was left to say anything. Get it?

LOL, For a group of people who are complaining about others being offended...... you all are more offended. What possible difference does this make in any of your lives? Take a chill pill and enjoy what time you have left.

what's the opposite of Charles Deming, continuous improvement?

continuous FUD: Fear, Uncertainty and Doubt

biggest threat to the US?

tic-tok:

chinese subtle way to influence the young minds with funny videos interspersed with the planting of seeds of FUD. . . and most people struggle with this concept because they can't see the sociopathy at the time of viewing. . and with the quality of fake videos now, you can't tell what is real and what isn't. . .

good luck to everyone, as we will need it. .

Yes, for one, I AM offended.

I am offended when a small group of idiots work to destroy my country.
I am offended when they want to erase history.
I am offended when they believe words are more important than actions.
I am offended when those that preach inclusion show outright hate of a religious minority.
I am offended when they believe people are entitled to luxuries just because they were born.
I am offended when universities collect $60,000+ per year tuition and then indoctrinate rather than teach.

Yes, I AM offended, and so should every true American

Huh, maybe immigrant names maybe! Our country is slowly going down the drain, we have to get a new party in charge! Things won’t get any better until we do.

Italians are up in arms also, they don’t want to be named after rodents (Guinea pigs).

Atitudes ,opinions reflect were a society is going, it can very much affect you , me, everyone, if you disdain the discussion why comment on those who try to look to the future , this is a place to express concerns and have them examined by others

No, he beat them to the punch by accepting the position of senior VP of marketing at Pfizer as the poster boy for Viagra. (Oops , I stated "boy", that must be stricken from the record I'm sure)

Great. So I guess we can go back to calling them the Washington Redskins?
