Stop spamming the board.

Find a current article that has relevance and post your thoughts on it but no more of this.

Sometimes people don't want to hear the truth because they don't want their illusions destroyed.

I don`t care whether you like it or not.
The board is General Discussion,that means discuss things not making a post and run.

All you are doing is junking up the place and annoying people.

I don't know the key to success, but the key to failure is trying to please everybody.

The key to success here is to not piss off your fellow posters.
It is called courtesy.

So we're all supposed to quietly march on down to the concentration camps because
no one wants to get their feelings hurt?

WTF?

You do not get to set the rules of the board.

If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer. Let him step to the music which he hears, however measured or far away.

If a man keeps his feet firmly on the ground, it will make it hard for him to put his pants on.

The cure for evil and disorder is more liberty, not suppression.

For any given program, the moment you master it, a new, mandatory, more complicated version is released.

In individuals, insanity is rare; but in groups, parties, nations and epochs, it is the rule.

If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"? Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

How fortunate for governments that the people they administer don't think.

In that case, you are most definitely the best friend any gov't could ever want, because thinking and you having nothing in common.

You have the right to remain silent, and we suggest you do so from now on. In fact, in your case it should be an obligation, for you are truly a dimwit.
