Trumps' supporters do not see 77 prosecutions.
Trumps' supporters see it as 77 persecutions.
Persecutions by a corrupt deep-state Democrat regime.
If one of those prosecutions was valid, handled proffessionally, and reported fairly in the Main-Stream Media, then it would have had a big impact. But 77 or more, when handled and reported like "the great purge" is clearly a witch hunt and only made Trump stronger.

I was intending to say in the above post that yanks are pumped with endless sewerage, and have been for decades. I was distracted looking for that conversation. I get your point Woberto.

We have our own problem: I heard yank cheese isn't real cheese but has a great list of additives - not from milk. You can't grow a healthy child's brain on it. That it's deliberate along with other food. Now ALDI and Coles are selling the rubbish here. It's all imported.

Survey: if you're in rural/semi rural places, is your food better - real food - compared to what's on sale in the cities?
If you're in the city, do you pay attention to the quality of your food?

Who would buy American cheese if given the choice?

It's bad enough that all of our dairies have been bought out by the Canadians or Japanese. At least they still use local milk.

Not me.

The politicians have been crushing dairy farmers in a long drawn out process for decades. Corporate ownership of dairy allows for stock market listings that their family trusts and companies can invest in. It could be long after that politician has died. It's been a process since the 1950's and demanded by the yanks (Basic Industries Group). So they intend investing too.

"Anon - not logged in", please note as I've posted many times over the years I prefer to NOT reply/respond to anyone posting anonymously as such a user tends to lack any real commitment to assign a real handle or name to their thoughts, which I tend to view as cowardly and disingenuous. The term paper tigers comes to mind.

In your case you at least have added the "-not logged in" behind the anon part of your user name so I at least feel I'm responding to the same person when replying to your posts, which is always a question when replying to the typical "anon, anonymous, etc.".

Secondly, you have an overall approach in your writings here that you're at least able to see the fallacies of either side of a discussion, which points to a more well rounded train of logical thought.

Lastly, holy fuck man, you obviously have more time on your hands to invest in exploring posts from long years ago here than I choose to devote to any such endeavor!

You've posed some interesting (and logical) questions above so let me respond at least to what I view as pertinent.

The MSM and and our govt. have been long time bed fellows, much to the detriment of anyone seeking anything resembling truth in reporting and in the past cuppla decades have most definitively agendized the spew they spin and regurgitate as if it were actual news. Most recently that's become so blatant that ever more of our citizenry have awakened to just how agenda driven its become. I personally see that as a good thing and the breakthrough in recent years of internet journalism by voices outside that realm has been refreshing to say the least.

The rise of internet based blogs/vlogs has shone a bright light upon the lack of integrity in MSM reportage and has sent the vermin scurrying. This is NOT to say I am willing to accept their reporting as absolute truth either but at least it's encouraging to hear other viewpoints being espoused to allow logical thought processes to work on sifting through all the BS to reasonably arrive at where the truth in any discussion might actually lie.

The one reason I've been associated with this site for so many years is that at least here everyones views are welcomed, regardless of their position, coupled with the fact that any type of censorship is kept to an absolute minimum, something not true with many places on the web where folks post their thoughts.

I personally abhor censorship of any kind as I view it as a treachery laden slippery slope but at least here so long as you aren't trying to post kiddie/adult pron, posting intensely graphic/gross pics or attempting to be blatantly racist, most other images and posts are allowed. As often as pulse and I have bumped heads over the years I've never been banned here and I respect that freedom absolutely, nor do I take that same freedom for granted, to wit, I try to be respectful in my posts when anyone with an opposing view is willing to extend the same courtesy.

But ... I'll call bullshit on anyone whose logic train is so distorted and agenda driven they can never see any logic in those opposing their views and I'll happily go into full on attack mode when I feel such is warranted. The term "fuck their feelings" applies here

Do I think conservative speech is moderated or maginalized here, nope, but I've damned sure experienced that in more than one "politically conservative" on-line group when posting views outside what's considered main stream in that realm. Having been banned from several conservative forums saddened me as it shows how little the concept of free speech they espouse so vociferously was little more than posturing in reality.

Do I think conservative speech would have been gleefully minimized and censored if Kamala had won the recent election? Absofuckinglutely! My thoughts are that any speech outside the realm of the political left ideological/idiological spew would have been clamped down upon HARD!

Anyone with a capacity for logical thought on such things need not venture any more deeply into recent agenda driven reporting than the COVID bullshit to see the lengths the machine was willing to take to marginalize/villanize anyone holding an opposing view of the "pandemic"/big pharma and how it was utilized to curtail our freedoms. What saddens me most about this is how willingly such a large segment of the populace was to swallow this shit hook, line and sinker.

BTW, here's a fun fact few fellow Americans likely know. If you walk into a Walmart here and see an employee wearing a mask it most likely means that employee chose to refuse the COVID vaccination and as such is required to this day to hafta wear a mask! During the "pandemic" work out here was hard to find so I worked at one for a lil over a year and I can tellya from experience the onslaught was never ending in attempting to get ALL employees to take the shot and the inherent "boosters".

I always thought it was hilarious that working there and being exposed to hundreds of people on a daily basis I never contracted COVID though the media and corporate spew was constantly claiming how illogical and dangerous my rejection of the jab was, and ... as a lifelong smoker, in my 60s, being overweight and a drinker I was supposed to be in the highest risk group, with contraction of COVID being almost assured and could have deadly consequences.

Found another job back in the newspaper business before the end of the COVID era and at one point our parent company was being lobbied hard to force all of us to take the jab and if anyone refused to force termination of said employee. Luckily the company held the line and valued our personal freedom above forced compliance. Had my choice been to accept the jab or lose my job I'd just have said SEEYA!

So, onto our food supply and how big business and govt. have acted in direct opposition to the overall health of the American people. Anyone with a willingness to explore the actual data on what is allowed into our food supply would or should be appalled. Yes Virginia, GMO crops and many of the additives allowed into our food supply is frightening if one chooses to openly explore the data on this.

My personal view is this is all driven by corporate greed, enabled by a government hell bent on control of the population with an evil intent to minimize the once increasing life span of the populace as its aging members (myself included) are viewed as a drain on resources, so eliminating as many of us through both over drugging and a crap food supply works well in that plan.

I grew up in the thriving metropolis of Dallas but happily abandoned that lifestyle over 20yrs ago and these days live in rural NE Texas and can say I don't miss the chaos, crime and leftist driven politics one bit. Out here in the sticks traffic is all but nonexistant, people tend to take life at an easier pace, absolutely deplore racism and the fanaticism of left centered politics.

Air quality out here is definitely better and there's a definite availability of fresh, locally grown produce and meats, which is not to say GMO crops or feed additives in livestock feeds are eliminated but at least overall such impacts are somewhat limited. And, if one is inclined to seek out non GMO foods and more natural based meat suppliers it can be done if one's willing to make the investment in both research and money in procuring better foods.

Bein a bachelor I tend to eat out a lot though I typically avoid fast food and have noticed digestive differences in how eating out compares to how my own home cooked meals effect me. Don't wanna be too graphic about this but as one that's pretty in-tune with how my body reacts to different foods there is a definite difference and the overall feeling I get is my body is trying to quickly rid itself of what I eat out versus what's home cooked.

Another long winded Texas diatribe penned so I'll stop here

Kim I read that in full.

First, I am 'Anon', I signed up as that but my browser mucks up when I log in (I don't know why and it dates to before Pulse added more java script - java is one of my dislikes). Therefore 'Anon - not logged in'. It's the same person.

I have time due to a medical issue, I was on codeine when my posts were poor grammar and Woberto called me a bot.

The MSM and and our govt. have been long time bed fellows, much to the detriment of anyone seeking anything resembling truth in reporting and in the past cuppla decades have most definitively agendized the spew they spin and regurgitate as if it were actual news. Most recently that's become so blatant that ever more of our citizenry have awakened to just how agenda driven its become. I personally see that as a good thing and the breakthrough in recent years of internet journalism by voices outside that realm has been refreshing to say the least.

That's exactly what I've noticed here. The rest I generally agree with but we're in different countries so that explain most differences. The rest can be explained by different backgrounds and my being targeted by creepy groups, that I didn't join, and their reactions. But if I wrote that it would it be just as long and very similar.

Regards where you've moved to: in another post you said the nearest neighbour is 30m away and cattle graze 100m away, a nearby town of 1600+.

One of the three definitions of 'Bunker' in Australia is a property, preferably a few acres, growing some food, a house/shed for whatever craft you can do, a nearby town with a market to sell your surplus or buy, a school to send children that age to and money is expected to work. It's just logical.

Regards Quasi, he's posted his photo and details of his life:

He doesn't have hair dye - hint.
He looks like he knows how to wash - hint.
His clothes are in good condition - hint.
He lives outside the built up places - hint.
He has the mental and emotional capacity to:
- own a 4WD - hint;
- attach a trailer - hint;
- go into the outdoors - hint (some people don't, if they did they would see that trees, left to themselves, grow like weeds. There's no crisis. But if they noticed
it would cost them all their 'friends').
His son motorbikes on dirt tracks - hint.
He owns guns - hint.

He baits and you jump like a puppy. (Sorry to cost you your fun Quasi but it's getting tiring).

Your country's population have been pumped with political sewer for decades. Now it's coming here:

During the first Gulf War one of your generals watched 16 news feeds on the war from different countries and said they were "Not in sync". As if your country should have a say! So your State Department sent spies to work in our media companies and direct sourcing to your media companies, government and so on. That's how the sewer gets in. Politicians have been too gutless to stand up to your country.

Either Trump closes your State Department or politicians in our countries give the spies what they deserve. Either way it makes our world's better.

Login is a finnicky/annoying thing.

I don't know what the deal is with it, but if you click on forum, then click login, it works more often than not.

It's the only way to do it as far as I'm aware and my patience/capacity to care is pretty limited.

I solved a number of the cookie getting nuked issues a little while ago, I'm sure this is just another one but I haven't found this particular one yet (also haven't looked for some time). It's not related to Javascript though, of which there's almost none here (strictly speaking it's Ajax/jquery)

I go to forum to log in and it works every time but a couple of times it either didn't work or I somehow accidently logged myself out after or while posting photos.

My son rides a motorbike, though not on dirt tracks, and continues to do so after a near fatal accident on one in 2015 which taught him the value of wearing a helmet.
Calling an all wheel drive (AWD) vehicle such as my trusty old Outback a 4wd will get you in trouble with actual 4wd owners, they're quite different in construction and therefore offroad abilities where AWD comes up short. Still, my Outback is one of the most capable AWD's and goes wherever I need it too.

As far as MrsKim, I didn't read all of it, I've heard it all before. I understand how stupid and even average people have fallen for the neo-conservative schtick in the U.S., but it baffles me how intelligent people like her have fallen for all the lies and fake macho drivel that pour ceaselessly from Trump and his sycophants, although that movement does seem to attract a lot of psychopaths, bigots, and selfish pricks. Now they've fucked around and they're going to find out, along with the rest of us. Trump's picks for his cabinet are already giving a window into what's coming with the main qualification for the jobs being ability to kneel before their king with scant other qualifications. I understand the distaste for American politics, but for me, the child of people who went through the great depression and went on to help defeat fascism in WWII, this goes beyond politics and into moral rights & wrongs and history attempting to repeat itself. Considering the power the U.S. wields, deservedly or not, it behooves people in other nations to pay attention. Trump doesn't understand the concept of allies, only business partners and power and how they'll benefit him, never mind who gets squashed along the way. His heroes are authoritarian dictators, and he wants to be a member of their club. He pretends to be a man of the people, but only the people who praise him, and anyone who disagrees or doesn't praise him is "vermin" or "enemy of the state" and MrsKim has fallen right into that cult that loves the Hitlerian language and desire to destroy people whom they see as being different from themselves. It'll be really interesting when the Christian nationalists get around to attacking atheists the way they do the LGBTQ.

Pulse it could just be an browser plugin. Don't stress on it.

AWD, 4WD, whatever.

Quasi does it occur to you there's just as much sewer from the other side of a uniparty?

I'll make a comparison with Australia: in 1996 in Money Magazine, I read "Stock market crashes are necessary for investors to make profits". That taught me all I needed to know about the yank establishment and their national doctrines about money. I don't listen to them. The Reserve Bank of Australia engineered three booms last century.

Now all that talk, using faux morality as a marketing technique, from your uniparty, justifying all they've done to you...

The depth of the sewer on each side rises and falls, this is why I've always been a non-party affiliated voter. The depth of the sewer on the right side, however, has become nearly unplumbable over the last ten years or so with new levels of anti-democratic crap reached nearly every day since 2016.
