Perhaps re-read his post.

I’ve read it numerous times.

My post had nothing to do with the current government, or any government.

It was a mockery of the idea that only people of one political ideal think they’re right and all else are stupid. That is an individual trait, not a political, religious, cultural, etc trait. A socialist is no more likely to feel they’re always right and everyone else is stupid than a Conservative is. As proven time and again by the extreme orators of each side on this site.

Tolerance or impatience with current situations should have little reflection on thinking everyone else with a different view is an idiot. I’m tired of many things, it doesn’t mean I think people who aren’t or feel or think otherwise are morons.

The point is blaithin, big claims require big evidence, not leaps of faith. That is not ideology, thats common sense.

If someone is going to come on and make prescriptions for everyone to do something for some greater cause, they better have some damn evidence before making such a claim. I am still waiting for any evidence any of these rulings work, all I see is an escalating blame game that the same SJWs are getting behind to shame another group.

Same goes with the crowd saying oil is bad then publishing 30 yrs of failed studies.

And now they are trying it with the great reset to tell us socialism is good when the evidence is clearly against it.

When evidence cant be reliably produced yet the narrative and agenda is still pushed relentlessly, the contrarian position is more likely correct.

That is why this is going nowhere. Socialists think they are right and the other guy is stupid, wont concede an inch and are not prepared to examine evidence that does not support their theory. Debate with them is less productive than debating a fencepost so no use even trying.

Those traits definitely accurately describe the small handful of really special socialists who have chosen agriville to preach their gospel.
Tolerance or open minded are the last words that come to mind.
But maybe we are just lucky to attract such willfully blind ideologues, and they are not representative of the broader political movement.

Blaithin, you were commenting on how you are disappointed by the lack of community spirit individuals have now, compared to days gone by if I understand you.

I'm saying one of the reasons may be because of the helplessness of some people who can't change the source that is causing them great stress right now. The beatings will continue until morale improves, comes to mind.

Couple that with a virus that has dominated TV, radio, internet and conversations . . . . people are just burnt out and tired.

Even before these present circumstances arrived I will admit community events were declining. The three biggest factors, grid roads, closure of elevators, and four wheel drive tractors were all a death sentence for small towns with an honorable mention going to .08 laws.

Now the internet and video games seem to fill that space instead of sports days, dances, and curling.
WE isn't a requirement for technology, its just a coincidence that there's a I in video and internet.

The pony has left the barn.

We may agree to meet in the middle on this one . . . or not.

I think I am dog-matic at times but I’ve avoided cat-astrophies. 😂 I like to hear all opinions but when a particular group clings to ridiculous falsehoods that condemn the staff of life, I find it very difficult to stop myself from holding them up for what they are. How can one who studied science and depends on carbon for all green growth not stand up to total bunk shoved down our throats daily by the sheeple?
