    I don't think we are, but let's entertain the notion. Well, for instance, he criticized nations in the third world is "crap countries" (He used another word.), but it is true those nations are full of corruption, violence and many other negative things liberals (or others) aren't willing to say out loud. But that's a generalization and certainly it's not nice or diplomatic to say.

    Kid Rock storms off stage at Bon Jovi's Nashville Bar: ‘I’m gone' At a recent concert, the crowd was silent with Kid Rock. He was upset and so he left during the act because he claimed he won't work unless welcome. Queston: What do you feel are negative repercussions about being involved in politics as an entertainer?

  3. Apparently, lol, he is serious. This is the dumbest crap I've heard and why I can't get into being on either side in politics these days. Anyway, bringing in Canada is stupid, because, for one thing, as soon as it's done, they would want to separate - because many of them are proud of being Canadian. In fact, dummy Trump, a huge thing about being Canadian, is not being American!

  4. It's been shown via the DOGE investigation that the democrats are spending money on hopeless social justice causes overseas that are about as hopeful as getting elephants to dance, but jokes aside, Musk is also spending federal dough on his silly plans for Mars, a place totally uninhabitable, people got a better chance in the Sahara or Siberia, where at least humans can breathe, lol.

    What are some reasons to disagree or agree with it? How do you feel (You don't have to answer this one.)? Do you feel atheists and agnostics can be arrogant, how about religious people? Well, of course, the answer is yes, but how much and how does that affect things?

  6. This month is Black History Month, and of course, some right-wingers are going to mock the situation, but I can see their viewpoint to some extent, though. Well, I have a disability, but I don't really like the "disability help scene". What I mean is that it's sort of emasculating and there's more to people than the disability.

  7. In modern times, you can see the dark side of conservative ideology in Asia. For instance, I taught school in South Korea. I found out that the Koreans were very superficial, and they judged too much on race and appearance. To me, this is just as bad as people doing DEI hiring in the US.

  8. Of course, I can see where liberals will be screaming this is just pandering to white nationalists. I mean, Trump has already stated his disgust for non-white nations, generally speaking. However, though, you must admit that racism is a two-way street, something liberals aren't willing to believe. In fact, I feel like liberals have a naive view of human society because they are sheltered from the bad elements in other racial groups.

    REM produced this song, and it was a mockery of feel-good pop music. Anyway, though, the point I'm getting at is "How can people feel that way when real threats are abounded?". For instance, how can people have a bleeding-heart liberal philosophy when probably the Chinese would like to conquer the US and make us slaves?

  10. Myself, I try to be more independent thinking, but certainly a lot of people can't stand other ideologies. They will either bully someone from another ideology or they will ignore them. Anyway, I feel like such behavior can be annoying, but I can see how people would feel more comfortable among "their own kind", so to speak. A situation otherwise could feel like harassment.

    It's well known that the whole "likes" thing on Facebook is a copy of what you see in Las Vegas (slot machines etc.). In other words, people get a dopamine rush from stuff getting liked. Anyway, though, I am cynical about likes for other reasons also. Well, it seems like it's become the domain of popular posters who get likes for whatever they post, no matter how dumb, while unpopular posters are not rewarded, even for interesting or funny material.

    If a nation gets AI supremacy, it could spell doom for everyone else, and the big candidate these days is China, because it's way ahead of the game. Well, do you feel your nation is not doing enough to ensure competency in math and science? What can be done?

    I like to get on Facebook and posts memes. I try to avoid sexual ones, but you know, even the non-sexual ones probably ruin my Christian witness. But then again, are Christians supposed to always be serious? Myself, I don't think life is all about laughter. Sometimes people need just be quiet and contemplate.

  14. Do you agree or disagree with it? Why is that that the case? What do you feel might be Musk's motive for his action? Do you feel it's legal? What things might Musk do once he gains hold of what he wants?

    Do you feel people have an issue with the homeless? I mean, these days I don't see a lot of racism or homophobia, but the 2nd class citizens seem to be homeless and people with criminal records. Does anyone else notice that?

    What do you think about him? What do you think about his winning the presidency and his reign so far? Do you feel he honestly won the election in the three elections he was in? Do you feel his opponents honestly won those elections?

  17. Well, it's not just AI, it would also be spellcheckers and the like. Anyway, with AI people don't really need to think, so how will they ever learn? Well, I suppose they could be forced to learn via math and science courses where AI can't be used on tests.

  20. One right-winger on social media mentioned that he wasn't against charity, but he didn't believe the government should be in. Do you agree with that statement? Well, I can see where he is coming from, but a cynic might point out that private groups might not provide help that is good enough.
