hello all, i am an older (over 60) lifetime liberal, i am an avid reader of history, (last 150 years), i haven't watched TV and or any major media news in at least 15 years...being semi-retired i scan the headlines and research any topic i wish to learn more about....i have been on another forum where they seemed to have shifted more and more to the right...being older i dont wish to argue online with anyone.... in the 1970s i discovered alternate (conspiracy) books, and the feeling of superiority one can get from having so-called insider type knowledge, i have dealt with that and value all viewpoints....above all there is too much arguing and bickering over much superficial based facts based on cherry-picked scenarios in the seventies being from Cleveland i was there when the punk-rock scene started up and have the memories, i still search you-tube for different "newer" music like rockabilly focused groups, there are many
I'm MJ. I'm non-artisan but each side thinks I am with the "enemy". LOL I am American, born and raised in Chicago, IL. I am pro-America/USA!!! (but not xenophobic or ethnophobia). I am not bigoted in any way against anybody. I'm highly allergic to whackadoodles (crazy, whiny, argumentative, etc). I will engage in conversations with anyone if we have a difference of opinion. I will not engage with anyone that is disrespectful and hateful. I am very grateful for our military because they defend our freedom. I may not agree, but vehemently defend everyone's right to Freedom of Speech. I have hope that we all can find a way to come together for the good of our nation and work toward making us truly UNITED again. I made these screenshots in case you haven't had time to find your way around. These are the things I would have liked to have known when I signed up so, hopefully, it helps. Jump on in anytime! Don't take any of it personally. I look forward to your posts! 1. Scroll to the bottom of the page to find the "Help" and other menus. 2.
