Identity leaking and censorship? That sounds a lot like the old USSR does it not? Interesting how the "mods" for the most part stay undercover here when in most other places they are active and open about who is who.
It is easy for people to talk about what the US should do when they have no stake in what the US should do. I agree with many points brought up by Novi, JR, Joker, Cargo and others concerning items in the US and abroad, though I do support funding the Ukraine people in the war. The billions sent to Ukraine really are a drop in the bucket of the US budget.
While it gets the attention because the US has largely ignored taking care of its own citizens for the last 60 years and it has put everyone else before them. Woke culture is destroying America. Not one part of woke culture resembles the values of what brought immigrants to the US for 200 years. If the founding fathers could see how bad it has become they may regret giving all these protected freedoms. Frankly it is embarrassing and sad. The United States used to represent freedom to grow and become what you have dreamed of. Now it has become a place where you have the freedom to act like a Fing moron in public, riot in the streets, chop your c0ck or ti77s off because you have amental illness, or indoctrinate children into believing non traditional lifestyles are wrong and its ok to be a freakshow and piece your face all over or color your hair purple and go to work as a lawyer. Civility is gone, values are almost non existent.
When the government is taking 20 to 30 percent of your money you work hard for, and then you get all excited because they give you a little bit back in a tax return, that is medicine for idiocy. But hey, what do I know I only lived there most of my life and still pay taxes, still vote and still take care of family there. But some little woke F'er in Portugal has a right to talk about what the US should do, or some one in Stockholm has a right to talk about how the US should allow and pay for certain things? Give me a break. Woke? Woke people need to wake up to reality.
