Ya, but tell me the prooooof tho.

That seems back asswards to me when people say that. SHOW ME PROOFS. Okay, that’s what I’m attempting to do. I’m telling you something doesn’t add up, now I’m going to find out what that is, you judge the fruits of my works.

In this scenario, the fruits=the proof.

That’s like asking a judge to hand down a verdict before the trial.

Something is off?

Like what? You see the absolute fucking nuts jobs running around this country right now? Killing, beating, burning shit?

Something is definitely “off”, and the people who perpetrated this fraud feel 100% justified because they think they’re saviors of something.
I mean when you're comfortable looting, assaulting and committing arson, I'm sure inventing some votes seems like a minor offenss. It's like if you can get away with serious crimes like that why should they fear a little voter fraud?

Did Biden think better of his scheduled PC today? Or did he do it and I missed it?

I'm sorry but these social media sites are fucking toxic and might fuel the end of us all.

So I'm endeavoring to pull away almost 100% and seek to meet and speak with people face to face. When I read Twitter, I come away thinking everyone is out of their mind angry, black people hate white people (primarily because of people like Jemele Hill and her sycophants), vice versa, etc, etc

But when I actually talk to people one in one in person from all walks of life, I find the exchange to be 180 degree different. I hope its genuine but for the first time in my life I've started to second guess whether they really are because social media has caused me to wonder if I'm just getting lip service and they really hate me because I'm "white" (whatever the hell that means).

I participated in a thing called "Together We Dine" over a Zoom call this past week where police officers and people from various races and walks of life get together to discuss race, perceptions about race, etc, etc and the conversations were great and everyone I met was awesome, thoughtful and kind and some of their stories moved me to tears.

I hope more people can put down social media, preconceptions, grudges, etc and make an effort to get to know someone that thinks and perhaps looks different and be willing to listen, learn and strive for enlightening dialogue.

The country really needs this or we're going to spiral downward into chaos and I don't believe that will end well for anyone

A lot of this is true.

I also saw a lot of really touching moments on twitter in the last few months I’ve been using it.

More than a few times I’ve seen black Americans make the comment “conservatives aren’t what we’re told they are.”, “conservatives never called me a N because I supported another candidate, but the moment I support the president, the left calls me all kinds of shit.”. Stuff like that.

It’s a social media platform, it’s extremely toxic in a lot of ways.

One thing is for sure, if conservative people would go to these places where people are hurting, and actually be encouraging and helpful to them, a lot of this country’s ailments could be healed.

I truly believe that the Republican Party is way better aligned to be the change party.

Twitter is saying Biden is actually going to do a PC soon and they’re going to have a dance party?

These people.

The Rights problem is the Left owns the media

good stuff, I'm gonna give it a shot and try throw my little grain sand from the beach of humanity into the ocean of life and hope I can occasionally cause a ripple or two in the right direction. Perhaps if we can all try to do the same in whatever way we each feel moved, some of those ailments you mentioned can become a thing of the past

For sure.

I follow this black dude from Philly that “saw the light” this year and became a Trump supporter.

I don’t know that it’s true, but at one point he said something like “we(black folks) fear you(white folks) where I come from.”.

That’s crazy. I mean, it makes sense. If all black people hear is how awful white people are and how racist we are, I guess I’d be scared too.

Media and the Democrat party have successfully created a false sense of reality. It’s bullshit.

And they wonder why people voted for Trump in the first place. When you treat everyone who doesn't agree with you with such contempt you're going to do nothing but push people in the opposite direction. You should be embracing those people but nope. This is why there are such severe contrasts in this country. Everyone blames the divide in this country on Trump but the truth is the strife falls squarely on the shoulders of these assholes.
