Accusation: The Southern Poverty Law Center Paid the KKK To "Manufacture Extremism"
We've been waiting patiently for this indictment to be handed down. There is ample evidence to prove that the SPLC paid the Ku Klux Klan, and other hate groups, over $3 million to "manufacture extremism", because there wasn't enough of it in real life! President Biden proclaimed that "white extremism" was the biggest…

Let's talk about the biggest problems we face today: Issue Related to the Environment.
I've said this before: I believe the issues we face today that will affect us more than anything else involve the environment, the health of the planet. Which doesn't mean I don't think politics or social issues are important. They are! But I am concerned at how overlooked environmental issues are today, and I believe a…

From Dan Rather's letter today, 6/11/26: "In the ensuing 17 months, the president pardoned convicted insurrectionists, imposed illegal tariffs, dismantled scientific and medical research, started a war of choice that he can’t seem to end, caused inflation to double, pushed millions off health insurance, and inflicted…

USA Authoritarianism

The all-purpose heavy duty Climate Chaos thread (sprinkled with hope).
I'm not asking to be bating, or to be right (I wish I were wrong about all this), or put anyone down. I really don't get it. Greta Thunberg asks this questions in this very direct, almost confrontational talk seen here: https://www.ted.com/talks/greta_thunberg_the_disarming_case_to_act_right_now_on_climate?language=en She…

Voting Redistricting or Gerrymandering
I'm sure everyone has heard the news and all the districts looking to change the voting landscape in whomever is in powers' favor. This has been going on forever and nothing new but it is dominating headlines now. Texas had the dems leave so it couldn't happen. Newsome in Cali is doing so too. I would expect more of the…

Family/friends that are Tr*mp supporters?
How many of you have people in your life that support him? I'm guessing I'm not the only one that deplores him but also has people in his life that somehow still support him. How have/did/do you deal with those people? Over the past few years, I have been removing people that support him from my life. Some have been fringe…

JD Vance
Besides being our current vice president, JD Vance is a very interesting man, with a very inspiring story to tell. JD (James David) Vance was born in Ohio, and he certainly did not come from a privileged background. In fact, he grew up in an impoverished and broken family, and he and his sister were raised primarily by…

The rise of China
Saw a report on TV the other night about how China are putting Pacific Island nations like Vanuatu in debt and then building ports there (loan shark tactics). As part of the deal they are also building towers without employing poor locals. Now, this has me worried, they're pretty much setting themselves up to have military…

Abortion-Keep Legal, Yes or No?
I figured since it’s currently a hot topic in the gun thread, I’d start an abortion topic thread. I’ll begin by responding to benjs’ last post in the gun thread: who says a woman is obligated to carry until term? Why shouldn’t that be her decision and hers alone?
