Am I sure? Nobody but the cops knows. But everyone is projecting racism into this situation. If the cops admit it I’ll change my mind obviously.

“Black voices . . . define culture”
Or, “Blacks can’t be racist because they don’t have any power.”

Which is it????

These people think they can have more prosperity and Venezuela-style government simultaneously.

But the reality is that the more Democrat the government, the more prosperity of the minions of government. And even that is true only in the (very) short run.

Socialism is cynical towards productive society. The conceit that productive society can organized by people who lust for power has been tried and found wanting as many - far too many - times as it has been tested. Productive society is only organized by people whose first objective is productivity as defined by society.

“Productivity” as defined by government is simply power. Neither more nor less.

Think maybe i got ONE virus once around 10 years ago on my PC.
I guess it really depends on the intellect of the user.
I imagine Apple is better with dealing in that way.

I think it may depend a lot on what links you visit or don't visit. Maybe we are a little more careful about which emails we open or respond to.

yea....back in the day when i was foolish enough to offer to fix a friend or relatives PC and then became their unwilling de facto weekly free PC tech for life i’ve learned how naive many PC users really are when it comes to surfing the web.
I myself learned way back in the late 90’s what was obvious BS or not...many others apparently cannot comprehend that concept.

Interestingly life goes on whether we approve or not. People are going to be opinionated as long as we are free. Hope that doesn't change but the older I get the more I think it likely will become totalitarian.

Because theft of music via copyright violation is a morally-acceptable alternative? Nice. I sure hope you don’t ever have an original or creative idea that might be taken from you.

I like my SinusXM stations


I have SirrusXM in my new RAM 1500 - they called several Conservative personalities from a couple of Conservative talk channels to the carpet this week about their conservative statements on these riots and such. So - are they any better?

Perhaps the blowback was too overwhelming?

Not sure. I saw this blowup here on FR... but saw very little out in the “wild”. But the first post led me to go check it out... and nope. My portal showed no signs. What’s interesting - the “suggested for you” section almost always is filled wtih Afro-centric artists and albums. Not sure why.
