    I have Canadian relatives and they are basically the same as American's as both nations are so close except in one manner.

    They are polite and nice to a fault.

    The ONLY time I have EVER seen Canadians go Postal was over Hockey!! LOL!!

    For decades, the NSA and GCHQ have worked as close partners, sharing intelligence under an arrangement known as the UKUSA agreement. They also collaborate with eavesdropping agencies in Canada, Australia and New Zealand under an arrangement known as the "Five Eyes" alliance.


    If corrupted rulers or consolidations of corporations conspired to infiltrate public activism groups to sabotage public political functionality, they would want those groups to "think it's a character trait of the ultra left and right... whining and snivelling" as a "cover explanation" for the apparent dysfunction.

    I accept some dysfunction, but not total dysfunction, and that's what we have. And it's not because there is not some solidarity on major issues, it's because of the nonsense issues that are no more than flogging triva sensations and the possible left/right positions.

    Thanks for the links, this one was particularly interesting https://theintercept.com/2014/02/24/jtrig-manipulation/

    The problem is (and I'm not saying they're not doing it I'm quite sure they are doing it) we don't really need covert agents to discredit online information, let me just say "flat earth thread", I think we're doing fine on our own.

    re the nonsense issues, yes I think some are here only for the argument, taking their frustrations of the day out on whoever is available on the forum... it's the nature of the beast... what I found is the far right and far left seem to be the most frustrated and aggressive members...thus the character trait reference I made

    No Im saying let people make their own choices and have the freedom to say whatever they want. A highly censored area would yield what you are asking for, a lower censored area would give other what they want and keep them out of your common ground area. I dont believe in forcing people to speak a certain way. You learn much more from someone about who they are and what they are up to by hearing what they really think without any filters.

    Clarity and freedom call for solution like AA posts. Reality and evolution do too. An escape into reality and function producing freedom starts in America with agreement upon definition of constitutional intent.

    Can or will any show they are real Americans?

    Do you agree and accept that the framers of the founding documents intended for us to alter or abolish government destructive to our unalienable rights?

    Do you agree and accept that the ultimate purpose of free speech is to enable the unity adequate to effectively alter or abolish?


    May the force be with you.

    I've come to the conclusion that people would rather be ignorant than afraid.

    Accordingly, when a group confronts them with solution they are already enacting, they are not driven off, they do not dissociate the information brought, and find excitement instead of fear.

    I couldn't agree more. I started a thread about the GOP losing Congress because of a Trump candidacy, and nobody even read the article or the OP. They see "Trump" and blindly assume the article is about Trump's chances at wining the election. I wanted to discuss Trump's harm to the GOP, yet no one even understood what was being said. Idiots.

    Maybe you're right
    I would like to be able to say to a person you are lying if you cannot supply a link to approve your statement
    And people being required to stick to the subject
    I believe these two things would help solve your problem

    The fact that Trump will be the GOP Candidate shows how low the GOP has fallen.

    My only problem is I actually care.

    Yeah, it's sad. I gave up on the Dems some time ago. I was ready to support a good Republican, but we get Trump. Of course, the simple-minded among us think my opposition to Trump makes me a lefty. Lmao. One of the reasons I oppose Trump is because I'm not a lefty. Simple minds, simple thoughts, circus of an election, circus of a discussion forum.

    I also care but
    the country has been going downhill in every sense the 1980s
    When talk radio and the president of the United States began to try to convince people
    The government was their enemy

    In reality the President has little to nothing to do with the day to day operations of the United States.

    That is left to the people.

    And the people if woken up be a very powerful force.

    It really only takes a few people to star and then it snowballs.

    But because what I do I cannot do that.
