No Government interference AND great information at our fingertips. Those Conspiracy minded folks are going to have to use the Google. The interesting thing is that one day, on some matter or issue, there will be a conspiracy theory which is mocked and shunned in the manner above, but it will turn on to be right. Then, we'll all be asking if it's still right to shun them like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FoxNews pushed "Benghazi while no one else picked it up and they are still in business. Fwiw, just because YouTube won't be pushing them it doesn't mean there won't be other avenues for conspiracy theorist to shop their wares....Getting back to your National Enquirer analogy, folks can print conspiracy crap right up until they start breaking laws and when that happens I hope they throw the book at them and expose the corruption. That's my take. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zen Traveler Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 It's amazing how similar the comic above mirrors National Socialist German Workers Party propaganda from the 1930s--Thanks for sharing comrade. I hope the lesson you gleaned from my comment was don't be swayed by your media because if you do you will suffer the fate of the guy caring what dueling devils think. Btw, glad to see you are still healthy enough to post and hope things are going well you Gilbert! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least they are not totally 24/7 hate news. SECURITY PRIVACY IMPORTANT ! Opinions on left/ right prolly not gonna get us anywhere but in disagreement. We all agree on so much more than we disagree on. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtimer Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 5 hours ago, Fish said: hate I can agree with your post but would like to speak out about the use of the word "hate." Simply, give me an effing break. This country was founded on the sacrosanct concept of dissent. Dissent, from any direction, is not "hate." Try to research where the use of "hate" veered from its actual meaning. Then look in the mirror for the reflection of using the word in the perverted sense. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldtimer Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 You must be a "hater" lol. It's funny that picking winners and losers is so much hypocrisy. What it really means is who picks their favorite winners and losers. OK, it isn't that funny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MyOwn Posted February 15, 2019 Author Share Posted February 15, 2019 So I had this thought today about all the "Send your DNA to us websites for family genealogy " If you personally don't do this but a brother, sister, daughter, son, Mom or Dad do then you are in it. I know and have read, law enforcement is using this to close cold cases, which is awesome. What happens when an insurance company is deciding to allow coverage based on DNA results that you personally did not provide?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fish Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 I love it when politicians, Dems and Repubs and media all "dislike" the President. That means he messed up their corrupt scam and they're really pissed. When they and the media all loved the President it went to hell, imo.... Don't think so....that's fine GO VOTE and KEEP it off the FORUM ! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
