Re: Worldbook Encyclopedia Censorship Topics

$1200 is a lot of money to go through and then blank out pages with a Sharpie.

Re: Video: Adolf Hitler in English AI Reconstruction

I found the Hitler speech in English quite compelling. It hits harder than simply reading the text in translation. I agree. For those who do know German, I find it a LOT easier to listen to Hitler with headphones, the sound quality is bad on these recordings, I understand it much better that way. T...

Re: Iran - Israel War? Iran's state-run news agency says Iran has fired ballistic missiles at targets inside Israel

Did Iran launch a slow moving missile and drone attack that they knew would all get shot down, simply for show since they felt they had to retaliate for Israel's attack on their embassy? Knowing that that it would fail because they didn't really want to escalate into a bigger war and potentially dr...

Re: The danger of “LGBT” teachers.

Why does the federal government need to care about public health at all? This is something the states can do. Seriously, Josh, do you want to bring back our “First Republic.” The central government was so weak that it was nearly nonfunctional. The Articles of Confederation that governed it provided...

Re: A letter I sent my senators, please consider similar.

Re: Public libraries. 21st Century saloons?

Were Chuck Jones and the Warner Brothers animation department pedophiles and grooming children in the 1940s and 50s? Probably. Same with Walt Disney. At any rate, they did in fact insert a lot of dirty stuff - stuff that my grandparents generation strongly objected to. Yes, obscene for sure. What w...

Re: Public libraries. 21st Century saloons?

I will say we live in a conservative rural area so while yes the city seems to have gotten on board with pushing the LGBTQ agenda it hasn't spilled to the library- which is county not city owned. Maybe that is why. Or perhaps these things are not as widespread as people say they are. I get a bit su...
