The collective potential for reason in this forum have deteriorated some 30 IQ points in the last decade, unfortunate.
That goes for the opposition folks as well. I can remember some civil and reasonable conversations with political opposites on this forum fifteen to twenty years ago. Eventually they were all canned, or tripped up causing their demise, which I’m sure has in some ways hindered present day freepathons.
Yep. I remember the “Buckhead’s” of this forum who made me proud.
Now there’s just so raw much anger and kneejerk cynicism that it’s almost difficult to read the comments.
Not that it’s not to a degree understandable considering what’s happened with the left, the media and so on. But the minute we let the opposition control not only the narrative but our collective reaction to it, we are lost.
