Re: LIBERAL FASCISM IS HERE: You Tube Denies Free Speech to Conservatives
Faith writes: The POWER is on the side of the Democrats, they own the media....
The media has influence, not power.
Faith writes: We've got the President...
And the Senate.

Re: LIBERAL FASCISM IS HERE: You Tube Denies Free Speech to Conservatives
Faith writes: Influence not power, that's a fine first go at undermining the truth.
The truth is that the President can send troops to invade other countries; the media can not. The media can fool some of the people some of the time. That's the difference between power and influence.

Faith writes: Golly gosh, because we've got a President who actually has some guts SOME of his powers continue in spite of the fascist onslaught.
Fascist onslaught.

Why are you guys so obsessed with opinionated columnists? Can't you form your own opinions based on the events in the news? Edited by ringo, : Added question marc.

Re: Sanctimonious defense of injustice by Christtianity Today
Faith writes: Events? You mean those fake facts?
No. Facts like actual video of actual people saying actual things.
Faith writes: Or those diluted facts that are spun by the Left that are what passes for news these days?
I don't know how anybody can "dilute" something like, "We're gonna build a wall." My question was why people like you and marc can't figure out for yourselves why a wall is a good or bad idea.

Yes, that's exactly what people are asking you to do. Quote what they actually say, not what your right-wing sources claim they're saying.
Faith writes: ... the rest of us intimidated into silence for fear of offending the powers that be.
You? Intimidated into silence? Did you actually say that?

Re: LIBERAL FASCISM IS HERE: IGNORANT FAKE NEWS
RAZD writes: A fake news piece trying to make GOP fascism acceptable to their base.
That says something about the age of the GOP base. They still have memories of fascism and Nazism. In a few years, the GOP won't even have to deny being fascists.

Re: Climate Issues - The 5 corrupt pillars of climate denial

Clean energy isn't necessarily a cost to the economy. Ask a company that sells solar panels and the people they employ.

Re: Trump's Tweet in Farsi Much "Liked" in Iran
Faith writes: War has to be formally declared and there are many kinds of interventions short of war. AbE: We on the right knew there was no danger of war....
Well, sure, if you narrow the definition of war enough it's easy to "know" there is no danger of war. No doubt the Nazis "knew" there was no danger of war when they invaded Poland - because they never declared war. No doubt the Japanese "Knew" there was no danger of war when they bombed Pearl Harbor - because they never declared war. No war, just World Intervention Two.

Re: Paying down the National Debt, improving society begins with education
Hyroglyphx writes: Humanities is great up to a point, but it just doesn't have very much utility. STEM on the other hand solves actual problems in the world...
I think you're missing the point. It isn't that STEM is a bad thing; it's that STEM shouldn't be the only thing. The original goal of public education was to make good citizens:
quote:
"The objects of this primary education . . . would be . . . to form the statesmen, legislators and judges, on whom public prosperity and individual happiness are so much to depend."
-- Thomas Jefferson
(That would also include voters.)
