Gaetz withdraws from AG
I respect other people opinions, lets face it if we all had the same opinion it would be very boring, but its important to stay on point! "What is deeply pathetic is your lack of respect for opinions different from your own. Your inability to tolerate dissent, your violent verbal reaction, are fascist or communist traits (the choice is yours) and are clear evidence of the unbearable weakness, of the indefensibility, of your political position." 'Violent verbal reaction' what on Earth are you talking about, what 'violent' word, or phrase did i use that seems to upset you. 'fascist or communist traits' What specific traits are those? "clear evidence of the unbearable weakness, of the indefensibility, of your political position." What political position is that? I get that some folks are upset/angry that Trump won by a landslide, but the way America was going under Biden, with his disasters starting with Afghanistan and then the open border problem and millions of illegals pouring in. The fact that the Dems and the MSM attempting to cover up his cognitive ability, when the world could see how bad he was getting! America was becoming the laughing stock of the world. The election is over and like it it or not you have to deal with it! -

Bangkok students assaulted, stripped, blackmailed by classmates
Main problem is that with spreading the pictures/movie clips on the internet they create a crime that can not be erased anymore by the victims. A single push of the "Enter/Send" button spread these images worldwide in no time, and copies are stored on a lot of computers/Phones. Can you imagine the life of these kids in the future, knowing that their privacy has been violated and spread all around the globe? -

The Decline of Free Speech: How the UK Became a Third-Class Nation
But you can't say what you want! If I say to a fat person in Thailand "Sawasdee krap, you're a bit fat", they will probably laugh and say "yes, too many Krispie Kremes lol" etc. If I say the same phrase to someone in the UK, then I'll be investigated as uttering a hate crime..... I believe it's the same if someone is bald! -

The Decline of Free Speech: How the UK Became a Third-Class Nation
No... because you do say what you want a lot of the time. It does not mean you can say anything you want on a public platform - there are limits. You still colour within the lines, and as much as many of us may disagree with your content.. its still your freedom to write what you wish (within reason). One of the reasons I haven't blocked you, even though I disagree with so much of your content is that its still a different perspective - I don't want to live within an echo-chamber of people who only agree - different perspectives are healthy (even yours !!!). But the developing limitations towards the 'freedom of speech' in the UK is taking on measures I would start to consider frightening, an abuse of power of an Orwellian nature . The 'Free Palestine' Movement has been able to shut down central London numerous times... The 20% Farmers Inheritance tax were permitted 2 Tractors into central London to protest.. 'One lot' do nothing to threaten the power dynamics in Westminster. The 'other log' have the potential to bring down the government with enough support. I'm frightened for my farmer friends who may post online.... Instead we are seeing a 'narrative' on shows such as LBC - James O'Brien... telling farmers just 'sell a bit of your land to pay tax'... and arguing that 'Farmers travelled to London in 1st Class'... (of course they did - non-premium time tickets: £30 regular (no seat guaranteed) - £45 First Class (food and drink included !!) - No brainer... That doesn't mean they are rich - it means they were capable of planning... .... But, argue against that and they are shot down by woke 'soundbites' which the government love... Start posting facts... and they get 'visited' by the Police... ... No... while it seems paranoid to suggest it - the UK is losing its freedom of speech.. Part of that is for wholly valid reasons... to cut out hate speech, religiously motivated speech and to cut out the spread of false naratives - but that last one is a major issue - who decides what a false narative is ? ....think Covid Vaccines / Global Warming etc - Facebook shuts down posts from people I know are posting facts... but the facts they have do not fit the government agreed narative... ... I'm not a renegade - I just like to be able to read the facts and decide myself. But equally so... I dont want to read stuff that is so obviously fake and designed to mislead us. -
