In the spirit of civility

Today, rather than engage at all with anything or anyone here who I find nasty or unpleasant, I will just trash the threads or entire forums. Quite calming. I have come to the conclusion that confirmation bias is so powerful and the propaganda branch of the corrupt system is so strong that I would be wasting valuable energy interacting with those who have no eyes to see or ears to hear.

So cheers to bread and circuses and may the force be with you all. And Help us, Obi Bern Kenobi, you are the last hope for the future of our once great civilization.

Peace.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?

This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.

As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
