Term limits because we’re all apparently too stupid to vote these self-serving, opportunistic, power mongers out of office on a regular basis. It boggles my mind how we can have such an abysmal public opinion of congress and keep electing these same stooges.

Yup. And I think people fly off their collective rockers trying to defend that position without even understanding what true rights are. Its like watching someone fly off the handle trying to explain why they know the sky is red and not blue.

If the sjw ruled over America. I would be a 2nd class citizen due to my ideology, for being a straight male, even though I'm a person of color, I'm also a direct descendent of patriarchal white males. Thus the sjw will excommunicate me, or disown me.

If the feminist ruled over America, I would be a 2nd class citizen for my views and for being a male.

If the pro blacks rules over America, I would be a 2nd class citizen due to my ideology and my views on race, as well as not being a black ally.

If the alt right rules over America, I would be a 2nd class citizen due to my views.

If the white nationalist rules over America, I would be a 2nd class citizen due to my ideology and not being white enough to be part of the white race as a mulatto.

If the Christian protestant right ruled over America, I would be a 2nd class citizen for being a catholic and thus being an agent of Rome.

If mgtow rules over America as have some sort I state like Gilead in hand made tale. I would be a 2nd class citizen due to m differences of views on women.

Those echo chambers which I have mentioned pose a grave threat to individual Americans who are not collective as them as don't share a common ideology.

Stilted view given your personal perceptions and your curren location.

Outside of Islamic countries, OK would just about be the last state/ country you should live in.

There is no way in the 1700's the founding fathers could have contemplated assault rifles, the internet, cars, or that the ice caps would melt. He!!, they couldn't have even contemplated that their grandkids would not own slaves.

Due to all those things and more, the constitution needs to be re-written, or GREATLY changed. Why do we worship such an antiquated set of rules as biblical scripture? We, in fact, don't even worship actual scripture as much.

We should have stayed out of WW1. If Germany had won that war, there quite possibly wouldn't have been a WWII, and Adolf Hitler would have lived his life as an unknown commercial artist.

I believe people will be replaced by automation in more than 50% of current jobs and careers. Once a computer is successfully programmed to "create" based on basic commands issued to a close degree (doesn't have to be as good) you only need humans to tidy it up a bit.

Imagine if you could give some basic vague ideas to your computer and it would spit out a new invention that is fully ready for manufacture. We already have computers making fake voices and realistic facial images that sound and look human. A single computer will have the computing power to run a fully automated McDonalds or a Wal Mart with the greatest of ease. And since it does not sleep or take breaks humans will not be needed except to keep the machines running.


And if computer can deep fake everything, do we then stop believing our own eyes and ears?
