This site has been a long time coming. I have been censored for asking questions, censored for offering opinions, and censored for stating fact. I am just a nobody from Kansas, and I do not expect this site to set the world on fire. I’m not trying to get rich, famous, or anything else. I just wanted a place that I could post my opinion for everyone or no one to see, but at least I can post it. At least my voice counts as much as anyone elses here. I don’t think it healthy as a society to muzzle individual thought. I certainly don’t think it’s healthy to have some green haired woke pimply faced pearl clutching 20 something censor deciding what is and is not “disinformation”.
I am not a journalist or a politician. I’m just a regular guy who needs to ask questions. The basis of all knowledge and growth is asking questions about what we don’t understand and attempting to answer those questions. The problem today is that merely asking questions can ruin a person. I think back to Meghan Kelly asking why is it offensive for a white child who, for instance, had been reading about George Washington Carver in school to dress up to look like him on Halloween? She didn’t say blacks were wrong for being offended, or that people needed to grow a thicker skin. She simply asked “Why?” How is a white kid portraying a black person they admire for Halloween offensive? Asking the question got her cancelled. Look it up.
There is a war going on right now in this country. While bullets aren’t flying, people are being destroyed. I’m not sure when it started, but do remember that the IRS under Obama had Lois Lerner using the tax system to silence conservative voices. It hasn’t improved. They now use the private sector to do their censoring, but make no mistake, it is the Democrat / Communists on the left that big tech serves.
Besides voting, this site is my small contribution to the conversation since Twitter and Facebook won’t let me participate in the new public square. I look at this site as my “vendors tent” sitting near the entrance to the societal conversation passing out pamphlets to be thrown away by passers by.
This is my first post on the new site. My desire is that this site be a place of conversation. Preferrably civil conversation. My only requests are that if you accuse or otherwise stir the puddin’, you need to be able to cite sources, or at least make a logical explanation of your statement. The only thing I intend to “censor” is vulgarity for vulgarities sake, spam, and unsupported accusation.
For example, stating “Mitch McConnell is worthless” is just stirring up the pudding, just a grenade thrown into the crowd waiting to see who gets blown up. Tell me why he is worthless. What has he done that renders him without value? If you were to say, “Mitch McConnel once again broke his pledge to not raise the debt ceiling at the last moment, plunging the nation further into debt. He is absolutely worthless as Senate Minority leader.” Now we have something to discuss, Mitch McConnells is worthless as speaker because he broke his pledge – again, and now can’t be trusted. Anyway, that’s why this site is here. Wish me luck!
