  1. If you're fed up with the "Me, too" movement, i'm sick of the "when they go low, we go high approach". Especially when it comes to Trumpism. Bending over backwards in the hope of bringing the country together, doesn't work with 45's supporters. They look upon civility as an opportunity take advantage. I say fight fire with fire. Bring this MFer down! 😠
  2. @TroyAre we done yet? if i listened to you, i would think everybody but you is living in a bubble, all of us guilty of not being able to look through the transparency of the bubble and put things in perspective, while compartmentalizing our lives in order to diversify our experiences, from time to time allowing ourselves to let down our guards and indulge in whatever gratifies us! Unlike a killjoy like you whose peripheral vision is blocked and who expects every one else to lead a Spartan existence while you arrogantly put down everything that doesn't conform to your preferences, even as you wrestle with the pessimistic optimism that leaves you vacillating in a limbo fraught with ambivalence. And who knew, that during their 400 years of bondage all the slaves were apparently leading double lives, experiencing the perks of being free??? Or did i ever say that today we don't have freedom. I said: "freedom is not free", something you should have a clue about as much as you gripe about the restraints put on you by the powers that be. I appreciate your intellectualizing the subjects we've been discussing, alerting the great unwashed masses to the hidden dangers of this wicked world. Yet, instead of you utilizing the vast social media audience to get out the message you think they should hear, you scorn and leave these commoners to the ignorance of their bliss. You prefer to align yourself with the anonymous community that also rejects Twitter, FaceBook, The Media, etc, - the segment of America you seem convinced thinks the same as you do. That is your bubble. Indeed. the privatizing of the prison systems where inmates, the majority of whom are black, are used to perform slave labor for as little as 32 cents an hour, is a glaring example of how the more things change, the more they have become the same in post racial America, the other side of the coin Troy flips when reminding us of how far we have come.
