Just curious...

If anyone on here has been watching the Impeachment Trial and still believes Donald Trump did *not* incite the insurrection? If so, why would you think so?

Conservative Publication Issues Apology to Dominion Voting Machines

Kimberly Forsythe @NewWorldOptimist (184) 15 Jan 21

Well, it's a start. American Thinker has retracted the statements it made about Dominion Voting Machines contributing to election fraud. However, I am still a big fan of decentralizing voting with blockchain voting. We can make it...

Kimberly Forsythe @NewWorldOptimist (184) 9 Jan 21

Well, it's official. Parler has been banned from both Google and Apple. John Matze, the CEO is still putting up false bravado, though. His rhetoric is still flaming the idea that Section 230 should be repealed. But, he has spoken...

Kimberly Forsythe @NewWorldOptimist (184) 9 Jan 21

(** EDIT ** This is obviously geared toward people in the US) They deleted Trump (I'm sure you've heard), then removed a statement he posted to the POTUS account. And, after he again tried to get a message out on the TeamTrump...

Collectively, humanity is insane. We have a bathtub full of problems. We use a spoon to transfer them into a bucket, then pour the bucket back into the tub to empty the bucket. While not the answer to all of our problems, tech is...

Complacency in a Dynamic World Will Lead to Ruin

Kimberly Forsythe @NewWorldOptimist (184) 21 Nov 20

There is a reason the US is set up to have elections so often. It is because it was never meant to be a job that one does for life. It was meant to be a short-term job that showed one was dedicated to their country and willing to...

Kimberly Forsythe @NewWorldOptimist (184) 21 Nov 20

I am curious who paid for the party. Elected leaders are servants of the people. When legislators are boozing it up with Dom Perignon while people struggle to put food on the table, they're either overpaid or something is really...

I look at things this way: We can push against the tide of technology, but it is futile. The borg (Star Trek) were right when they said that "Resistance is futile" in that respect. But, resistance to abuse is never futile. It's...
