Alex Jone's has hurt society far less than most mainstream journalists who have pushed lies to support wars. Meanwhile we have sent $180billion to arm real Nazi's in Ukraine and the Bluesky crowd talks about an arm gesture for a month.

The Chinese government literally controls it.

Yes; those fools are allowing the communists to control their minds! Tune into Fox News with the enlightened people like me.

Gentlemen,

It's been real. I've found vast amusement verbally sparring, and refined my understanding thereby, so: thank you.

But both work and school are ramping up, and cutting some of the social media faffing about is needful.

Blessings to all of you in the New Year. I hope that there is an event in about a year that is recognizably an election, and that sanity prevails. I've no confidence in man, but infinite faith in the Lord.

So, as long as there is no prior data, and we live in the present tense, then we can deny, say, that the ship is sinking? There may be a reason that you are in academia...

The conservative goal is the absence of a King of the Hill, not to _be_ King of the Hill.

So then why did so many plead guilty to that charge?

We'll have to ask them. I suspect denial of decent council.

And why couldn't Your Dear Leader have bothered to lift a finger to help these people?

Out of office by the time the Maoist junta got going?

I'm ex-Navy. "Blockade" means interdiction of cargo vessels. Gaza is not a maritime context. Nor is there any real "siege", either. Your Team is here to blow up civilization, including the language. Down with your New Anti-Zionist Intifada (NAZI) attitude.

"Blockade" is trivially disproven, or: how did Hamas obtain tunneling equipment/material if there was nothing coming in? No, vast aid came in, and was substantially diverted to nefarious purposes. Your Team hasn't a leg to stand on in its support for the New Anti-Zionist Intifada (NAZI) parties.

had any kind of "vice-grip on power", why are they not capable of accomplishing anything?

The conservative view (at least nominally) is to let you manage your own life, with special support for those conceived, but as yet unborn.
