    LGBTQ books in public school libraries

    Can you find and quote The Guardian regarding a ban of books/writings on sex slavery in your link? Regarding a “ban” on pro-Nazi books: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=The+Turner+Diaries+by+William+Luther+Pierce&t=h_&ia=web https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/340091.William_Luther_Pierce Are you...

    LGBTQ books in public school libraries

    Do you trust the majority of parents and teachers to make sound decisions on what should be taught to students and what is appropriate for different age groups? Or do you believe a government official or governor with no training in education should make that decision?

    LGBTQ books in public school libraries

    We should all realize that it is common to find a significant number of white supremacists in police departments and in the military. A declaration of skin color not being an indicator of race and/or that humans are not divided into races, will not stop white supremacists from seeing skin color...

    Fill in the Blank - 'The Greatest Danger to Our Future' ... is???

    Our near-term future is very dark. Our long-term and distant future is terminal. In between those two extremes are mysteries. And it all depends on us, together. Will humanity meet the challenges or will we sit back and wait for someone else with charisma to ride in on a white horse?

    Word about depression

    It’s a sad thing to find oneself to be elderly and suddenly regret the extent of former mistakes and their effects on earlier years that could have been different. I have personal experience with that.

    Word about depression

    Medical science now has a very safe, zero side effect, natural solution for debilitating depression and anxiety. It’s called “psilocybin”. Many studies and trials have been run by places like the Mayo Clinic with amazing results for treatment of suicidal PTSD and other such conditions. I know...

    What is socialism?

    So you not only attack me in post 548 and then gripe that I didn’t address the “dialog” in that attack, but again, here, now, you attack me again. Anyone who stoops to “speculating” that the person with an unassailable position must have "had something happen in your life that you feel others...

    What is socialism?

    If you walk into a telephone pole because you’re looking the other way, do you blame the telephone pole? For the benefit of others reading this, I’ll point out that it was YOU who first bitched about me “attacking” you in your post #550.

    What is socialism?

    Gosh Knight, with your scarce quotes and non-specific wording it’s just a bit hard to be sure of what you’re referring to and it’s relevance, but I think the above is probably the correct sequence that you’re commenting on. Complete sentences are helpful whenever we can get them. Assuming...

    What is socialism?

    Now that’s interesting. Could you elaborate at all on how it might get into a political arena that isn’t allowed? Just a bit about what you’re thinking? Again, one thing that has shown benefit is the elimination of HFCS and hydrogenated oils from foods. But that has proven to be difficult to...

    What is socialism?

    You’re more optimistic than I am. Other countries, if I have it right, have public programs that publish educational "short takes” that inform and encourage wise choices and make smoking expensive and “inconvenient” with measurable results. Some have banned use of hydrogenated and/or high...

    What is socialism?

    What did sippican say on the subject at hand? Or did he just attack “oldlongwalker”?

    What is socialism?

    But … but … but you’re not a socialist and still you attacked me in SEVEN lines of text with ZERO comments about the subject. Actually it’s a fairly good example of the taboo against discussion of socialism as you try to deflect the discussion and intimidate me with insults. You’ll find I...

    What is socialism?

    Please take your thoughtless insults somewhere else.

    What is socialism?

    This is true. I think most people prefer the former. And I think the future will be more and more about “government of the people, by the people, for the people". Or at least I hope so, but I fear we may go through some tough times first.
