It's all another round of the wrestling show with the factions pretending to battle each other.

I think they're doing this shit to try to regain trust.

The ptb know they fucked up royally with con-vid.

Even normies are getting tired of the DemoCRIPS and RepubliBLOODS .

The wef did some shit a year ago about how to regain trust.

Not justice, not reform, not addressing COVID etc....

But more propaganda.

And the fuckers can't even make a proper deep fake that teens can do from home?

Instead we get blurry videos of Jamie Foxx on a boat, not a proper deep fake of him playing pickleball as they claimed.

We get blurry shit of oct 7, from the country with the highest tech propaganda.

We get little to nothing about what's going on in Ukraine, besides social media bullshit and claims. I remember in the first year of the war Russia hit some electrical plants that would have taken months to repair. Yet, I heard nothing about outages from Ukraine. Bullshit war that never ends even though many have died, they somehow aren't running out even though they have old people fighting now?

Fuck that noise.

Hey Rob (c137), tell us how you really feel. Haha. I agree. I don't understand why people can't see through this stuff. Why is it that only a tiny fraction of the populous can see that we are in a video game? I didn't watch the Republican Convention, but I've heard they didn't once mention medical freedom or the whole "covid" scam. They didn't address any of the issues that are affecting our country. Why can't people see this? None of them are talking about the things that are affecting the nation, and the world. It's just "Vote Trump" or "Vote Kamala". America has to be destroyed before they can really get their "new world order" in place. We can vote for whoever we want but do we get to vote for the people who are really running the show? Do we get to vote for the head of the WEF, WHO, UN, CIA, FBI, etc? Not at all. Thanks for adding to the banter! :)

Trump's speech was so draining that I had to shut it off minutes in. He repeats words a lot, probably NLP language programming and just kept talking like a spoiled boomer, like Biden. At least RFK Jr's Sunday speech was somewhat entertaining and like you said he addressed the medical issue. My girl thinks rfk is going to get picked by the DNC ... Perhaps the new narrative will be "under new management" where they blame past corruption in order to regain trust?

After the Trump speech I skipped, Jimmy Dore and Due Dissidence said it was boring and stupid. You would think after all of this drama, he would have capitalized with a heart felt speech, not the babbling bullshit he went on and on with!

Your last point is funny because in wrestling, Trump was a guy that came in to expose how the WWE was run by "unelected" corporate owners such as Vince McMahon. I don't see Trump doing it now, besides his weak deep state rhetoric, but if this whole thing is a narrative to bring Kennedy in as the hero, then it will be like wrestling where the guy publicly excluded gets his fame coming to "beat Trump".

After all, the DNC had the power to eliminate him with superdelegates, just like they could do with Bernie. Yet, they decided to make up some bullshit about New Hampshire and some other state. Why? Perhaps to play the bad guy role and then later bring in Kennedy as a reformer?

Sorry, just thinking out loud. It just doesn't make sense why the DNC didn't already pump up a new candidate like they did with Obama who came from a relative zero to top candidate quickly.

I agree with 99% of what you're saying, but there are lots of big national problems that *must* be solved by politicians. I can't close the border myself. I can't stop the government from printing money. I can't stop them from investing in green energy. I can't stop the wars. No private citizen can. And these things dramatically affect our quality of life!

Those politicians who are going to solve the national problems are supposed to be representing us (the people). When those handful of politicians fail to do that which they were elected to do, it is not the end of the issue, but it is up to the individual people to set the stage locally. Be it city, county and/or state, this is where the power truly comes from (if we act) but we the people have been propagandized to no end that it must be someone in D.C. who makes the needed changes.

We can't legally close the border, but your city, county and/or state can make laws that prohibit the hiring, funding or housing of illegal aliens. Thus, making the closing of the border mute. Self-deportation when they can't survive here.

That's a fair point. And progress is possible! Here in NC, we did not have voter ID laws in 2020. Now we do. It's a small victory, but they add up.

I like that you are taking a stand, and stating your position.

I can see many of your points, but have one disagreement.

Only one candidate has vowed to restore decency.

Only one candidate has made any mention of reducing government.

Only one candidate has actually made peace agreements and not started another war.

Only one candidate got beaten in an election because he played by the rules instead of manipulated them.

I know we are all tired of the DC cesspool, streamed to us all incessantly 24/7, but choosing to abstain is choosing to be led around the pen by the other sheep.

This truly is the most consequential election of our lives, whether we are 18 or 60, and we had better choose wisely.

Agree, people should put their energy into local elections but do not skip voting in the Federal level elections. Just pick the best bad choice and resume working locally.

My city just agreed to put on the Nov ballet a referendum that if passed would allow the city to incur significant debt (up to $15mm for each project (no number of projects mentioned)) without citizen approval. The reason mentioned in the email was that of the 411 Florida cities, we were the only one without this ability. Personally, I consider that a point of pride not a deficiency.

BTW, the city would most likely be borrowing money from the Federal government/agencies.

Wow, that's crazy. Yeah, people get so caught up in Prez politics they lose sight of things that truly affect them on a local level. I already see comments from people who don't seem to get the point. I believe you and I are about the same age. We both remember all of the exact same promises being given by every single candidate (the only difference being in the way the promises were presented by whichever side was making them) our entire lives. It is obvious to me that most people don't pay attention, or willfully ignore anything negative about "their guy". I use "covid" a lot in my examples because they are fresh in people's minds. One of the guys running for prez right now absolutely got the ball rolling on all of the lockdowns, masking, vaccines, etc. But guess who said NO to it all in my area (besides me, of course)? My local sheriff and deputies, my local city council, etc. The federal guv was shoving this down everyone's throat. It was only in areas where opposition was from local representation where we weren't made to follow these protocols. The same goes for most everything else that the federal government does. I believe most people forget that each state is like it's own little country and that each county in that state is also like it's own little country. The system is brilliant, but the average person doesn't get it. We have been conditioned to think that changes can only be made from the top. That's impossible! I so wish people would get this. And as for one of the people running right now (I believe you know after this many years I don't support anyone for president) they have promised to do so many things that never got done the first time around (excuses being they had no support, even though at one point the Republican party had all 3 branches of government!) So, this time, as a lame duck prez they will? We both know what happens under lame duck presidents. It's a complicated issue and I don't want to come across as some kind of leftist loon because that's not the case. I just know that there is no way that any prez is going to make a difference when the country is this far down the crapper. How many people remember DJT saying "we'll take the guns and worry about due process later?" (he only got the bump stocks done with his magic pen and that has been overturned). How many remember him getting on the prez helicopter and saying, "they HAVE to get their shots. they have to take the vaccine"? I could go on and on. And don't get me started on JD Vance and his ties to big tech and big pharma! I don't have anything good to say about any on the left either, of course. They are all in on this. They are all controlled. And until someone proves me wrong, I will continue to follow the evidence and my experience. To me, people who think if they just vote for the right guy things are going to be fixed are lazy and not doing their civic duty to be involved in the things that really matter around them. Sorry for the tirade. Ha! Thanks, as always, for your years of support and sage comments Brian.

Right on, Rob. The most relevant, single word of your article is ''(s)election.'' Plain and simple, the elections are predetermined and rigged. All of the rest is smoke and mirrors. I would surmise that is true at the local level, also, since the voting machines are the same. The difference is that the local politicians are subject to closer scrutiny by their constituents and therefore might be held a little more accountable. The feds don't care. Jesus Christ, they hosted a fucking war criminal in Congress yesterday, and the House Speaker threatened to arrest anyone who dared to interrupt the speech. That shows you who they're beholden to. It ain't us.
