Dude, eventually, these locks will become tight and they will exclude YOU. Palladium is still the goal despite a 20+ year lag time.

Hatred has been bred into us for generation upon generation

Yeah yeah yeah. I was taught hate and I rejected it. I still get very angry from time to time, but I do my best to not let the anger devolve into hate. Hate is a personal choice.

I created this quote out of my own experiences; however, I feel certain it has been said many different times in many different ways, I was just unable to see it at the time I heard/read it:

"If you have hate in your heart, you have no room for God"

Since I am not religious, it actually morphs into: "If you have hate in your heart, you have no room for love"

Choose your path.

IMO, one of our biggest issues is the size of our country. It's not easy to meet with a national representative, be it somebody in the House, the Senate, or the President.

The Senate and the President are not for citizens to access, only States. Citizens are expected to use the House of Representatives. If your Representative is hard to contact, vote them out (or at least that is the theory).

The problem here is that consumers selected for devices that used proprietary interfaces rather than standards.

Huh? I was never aware of being given a choice in that regard. If I had, I would have chosen standards. Why would you blame the consumer for the profit-driven choices executives made? Are you a real person or some paid commenter?

Your 'Microsoft account' gives them the legal justification for downloading all of your data from 'your' computer. By breaking that, you make it immeasurably more difficult for them to grab everything they want. They can still grab a lot without the account, but the data is more valuable with your involvement.

The conspiracies in the USA come from the British. It is no surprise that both have fallen to worshiping money. They are foul and gross no less so than 300 years ago. Y'all should have let your monarchs see the guillotine and none of this would would be happening like this.

Comment Re:Unless Trump dies he's going to run for a 3rd t (Score 1) 248

The 22nd Amendment states that he can't be elected to a 3rd term, consecutive or otherwise.

Add it to the list of other Constitutional protections that have been violated.

But perhaps the key word is ... "elected."

There is no need for such 'twists' when the other Amendments are being ignored.

They are not 'deporting' immigrants. The immigrants are being imprisoned in foreign countries without a trial. If you do not feel violated by that, there is something DEEPLY wrong with you.

(I say immigrants rather than illegal immigrants because a court has not fully decided their status in all cases, which means you could end up in one of those prisons (without a judge to check, how would anyone know if you are legal?))

If the left wing can pull their heads out of their asses and actually help the centrists

Fuck you and your 'left' and 'right' bullshit. Absolutely NOBODY is left or right on all issues, but the framing of it that way makes sure that no more than a third of a people can agree to get along. YOU are partially responsible for the tearing down of America. Fuck you.

EVERYONE wants to be treated fairly, absolutely everyone. The issue comes in when people like you think that 'fair' is not fair. So you fracture society to get what you want through divisions. You are just as much as fascist as the people ruining this country. Go away.

This is a rather blunt way for me to say it's cheaper to be a good person.

Wealth doesn't care if you are a good or bad person, only that you can't touch wealth. I suppose you are giving 'good' advice to the non-wealthy, but it doesn't matter. Only wealth matters. The non-wealthy can do whatever they want as long as they don't get in the way of wealth and die without being too difficult.
