Lies, damned lies and President Felon. 11:10 - Mar 20 with 3026 views | saint901 | We are seeing in the USA a situation develop which mirrors, exaggerates and give credence to a growing problem in Europe (although I like to think that Europeans are a little less obvious about it). President Felon believes that he has absolute authority to do as he wishes. He thinks that the US constitution - 250 years old next year - is something that he can ignore, overwrite or break without consequence. When he does break the law and a Judge says "don't do that", they are labelled as "partisan activists" by him and his appointed morons. This looks to be a set up to Felon either removing Judges who dare to disagree with him or flooding the Courts with Judges who actually are activist but for him and his party. (And it is "his" party, not that of Republican voters). And this version of the thought police acting on his instructions continues to spread. A French professor was this week denied entry to the US, his phone and laptop taken and out on a plane back to France. His "crime"? He disagreed with the Felon's dismemberment of a US research facility and said so in a scientific paper. And every day we see stories of ICE (aka the Trump shock troops) taking matters into their own hands and treating people with valid and legal visas, green cards and US citizenship, like criminals. I really cannot believe that the Felon had sufficient mental bandwidth to take personal offence at the examples above not indeed any capacity to understand the damage he is causing the US reputation worldwide. This is clearly the work of those who surround him wishing to kiss is ar$e For example, the US negotiator in Ukraine has said that the drone attacks from Russia YESTERDAY did not happen because Putin has said he would not do that. An absolute lie that he knows he will not receive criticism from the Felon for because that is what the Felon wants to hear. The Felon, in his actions, is giving a green light to similar factions in Europe. Hungary, Romania, arguably Italy. We of course have our own versions but we've effectively made Truss a laughing stock to be disregarded and Farage is more interested in silencing his own party than helping his constituents. I can only hope that the weight of the lies and falsehoods being used to support the Felon eventually bring him down before the various European copycats can gain control or credence because when Ukraine is raped and handed over to Russia, Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania will be next unless Europe can carry enough threat. |  | | |  |

I think probably all of us on here believe in free speech and unless you're being particularly hateful, you're entitled to your views. I'm pretty sure that the vast majority simply find your kind of world view fanciful and therefore see you as naive and gullible. But it's not personal. |  |

Lies, damned lies and President Felon. on 13:31 - Mar 24 by SaintNick | In simple terms A man not even born in the country joins their army does a bit of fighting Becomes a Politician eventually takes over the Country and becomes the absolute leader with no opposition. Invades most of mainland Europe and bits of Africa. Slaughters large numbers of these countries inhabitants and many soldiers both his and the enemy are killed and maimed. Stops short of invading England. Tries to make his country the supreme ruler of an empire Invaded Russia instead, get stopped by the Russian winter and forced to retreat in disarray. Now on the back foot forced to retreat to the capital, with the enemy now in the outskirts of the city it all ends. Now this could be Napoleon or it could be Hitler, Napoleon did make a short comeback, he abdicated rather than shot himself. So why is Napoleon considered a hero in France still, and not vilified as Hitler rightly is, the only real difference between them was that Napoleon did not have the modern science to destroy those in front of him that he hated on an industrial scale. Pretty basic I know but roughly speaking true |
Because Bonaparte was the only soldier France produced in 500 years. |  | |  |

It contained a very clever bug that was only found decades later, still working as it needed no internal power. Putin has just given a portrait of Donald Trump to the arch narcissist and you can bet he will hang it in the Oval Office. Can't see the CIA being able to take a good look at it but maybe they should. |  | |  |

The price of speaking the truth is to be misunderstood by both the ignorant and the arrogant. People love to be part of the herd, but it's a deceptively safe place for the hoi polloi - enjoy your mind control! |  |

And you could usefully reflect on why it is that you personally have an emotional need to be aside from the 'the herd' as you say, one of the enlightened and initiated. Is it need to feel special, do you think? |  |

Haha, are you a shrink now Ian? No there is nothing particularly special about me, it's just that you can't unsee what you see. You have to remember I would have argued like you do now for most of my life - are you open to changing your mind Ian and dismantling your world view or is it a closed book? |  |

What exactly is the ‘truth’ as you see it ? |  |

Lies, damned lies and President Felon. on 17:27 - Mar 25 with 591 views | saint901 | This thread is about the lies of the President of the USA and how he and his cult are using those falsehoods to build the USA into something resembling Russia or China or any other dictatorship you care to mention. The degree to which that thought surprises, offends, confirms your world view is not really relevant here? I would suggest that EVERYBODY has a world view - small or large - which is powered by our own prejudices and bias. We are all to a degree dependent upon whether we see others as reliable purveyors of truth whose bias is clearly declared and which can therefore be adjusted for or unreliable spreaders of lies and prejudiced information which fulfils their particular need to shape or control the narrative. It is possible for one news report or incident to be analysed in such a manner as to be both the above in the opinion of the recipient. If somebody wants to change my mind on an issue, I'm happy to debate it but I have a bias toward evidence led conclusions because that is a product of my training and job for the last 50 years. I have heard and seen many who like to arrive at a conclusion and then find evidence to suit that conclusion whilst ignoring evidence that does not. My consolation in such events is that in the area I work in, their position is almost always found to be incorrect by an independent arbiter. |  | |  |

Lies, damned lies and President Felon. on 12:24 - Mar 27 with 315 views | saint901 | I've worked and lived in the US and travelled extensively there. One of my sons lives there with his American wife. There is a very distinct separation in view between Americans who live in cities and those who live in small towns. Those in cities (in my experience) are cosmopolitan and generally liberal in their views and not inclined to take extreme positions on political matters. They tend to be more concerned about achieving the American dream of wealth, freedom and happiness. Those in small towns and the countryside tend to be much more polarised in their political outlook and some - by no means all - live in a conflict in which they blame the Gov't for lack of opportunity or social security whilst claiming that it's the Gov't that causes the problems. Not a real survey of course but just a contribution. |  | |  |
