Things are going to be different this time around.
Last time, they created J6 and C19 to justify censoring and purging all dissenting voices from the public sphere.
It gave them complete power over all public discourse. Anyone who said anything negative about masks, vaccines, man-made origins of the virus, etc., all of these things would get you banned immediately, under the guise of “public health disinformation”.
They won’t have that luxury this time. Elon is at the helm of public discourse now, and he is keen to their plans. By the public having a platform to discuss freely, the enemy’s mask, vaccine, and pandemic propaganda will not work. Too many voices with global reach are driving the conversation and we are winning the court of public opinion. People aren’t buying the bullshit this time.
Humans have a deep fear of being alone or ostracized. Many wanted to speak out against the bullshit last time, but stayed silent and complied because they didn’t want to be the outcast. Now that truth-tellers have a massive platform and are dominating the public conversation, those who feared to stand up last time will be emboldened to stand up this time, because they do not feel alone.
That’s why each and every one of us has to stand up at every battle we are faced with. No more putting on a mask to appease employers or a public business. No more going along with the official narrative because you are avoiding confrontation. We have to stand up to it everywhere, and our courage will spread to others.
MEMES and FUN STUFF:
Yeah…not going there.
For a couple of my cousins, that would be called dinner.
Or after dinner at my parents’ house when my one brother is in town and there are three empty bottles on the table – white wine, red wine and Jameson. Happened over the summer.

And now for the business portion.
Please review our HOST and site owner’s Guidelines for posting and discussion for this site. Wolf is kind enough to put up with *most* of us and our antics after thorough vetting. Violators of the baiting and deliberately attempting to divide the group rules WILL face consequences.
The discourse on this site is to be CIVIL – no name calling, baiting, or threatening others here is allowed. Company manners are appreciated. Those who are so inclined may visit Wolf’s other sanctuary, the U-Tree, to slog out discussions best saved for a wrestling mat. If, for some reason, this site is not available, head over to the UTree and visit the post at the top of the list or the closest rescue thread.
This site is a celebration of the natural rights endowed to humans by our Creator as well as those enshrined in the Bill of Rights adopted in the founding documents of the United States of America. Within the limits of law, how we exercise these rights is part of the freedom of our discussion.
THAT MEANS THAT ALL OF US HERE ARE ENTITLED TO OUR OPINIONS AND PREJUDICES, ETC., SO LONG AS THEY CAUSE NO PHYSICAL HARM TO OTHERS OR DOXX OUR FELLOW TREE DWELLERS.
All opinions here are valued for the diversity they bring to the issues, and the shaping of understanding regarding topics for which many of us do not have all information. Correcting the record on any one topic is appreciated.
Be careful in expressing thoughts as we would all like to think well of the rest of the group, and ill-thought out comments have a way of wrecking that for everyone.
Fellow tree dweller, the late Wheatie, gave us some good reminders on the basics of civility in political discourse:
- No food fights
- No running with scissors
- If you bring snacks, be sure they are made with bacon
Auntie DePat’s requests as we are all supposedly adults and don’t just play them on TV like the body doubles pretending to be the squatter in chief:
If you see something has not been posted, do us all a favor, and post it. Please, do not complain that it has not been done yet.
The scroll wheel on your mouse can be your friend. As mature adults, please use it here in the same manner you would in avoiding online porn.
Thank you so much for any and all attention to such details. It is GREATLY appreciated by more than one party here.

1 THESSALONIANS 3:7-13
7for this reason, brethren, in all our distress and affliction we have been comforted about you through your faith; 8for now we live, if you stand fast in the Lord. 9For what thanksgiving can we render to God for you, for all the joy which we feel for your sake before our God, 10praying earnestly night and day that we may see you face to face and supply what is lacking in your faith? 11Now may our God and Father himself, and our Lord Jesus, direct our way to you; 12and may the Lord make you increase and abound in love to one another and to all men, as we do to you, 13so that he may establish your hearts unblamable in holiness before our God and Father, at the coming of our Lord Jesus with all his saints.
MATTHEW 24:42-51
42Watch therefore, for you do not know on what day your Lord is coming. 43But know this, that if the householder had known in what part of the night the thief was coming, he would have watched and would not have let his house be broken into. 44Therefore you also must be ready; for the Son of man is coming at an hour you do not expect. 45“Who then is the faithful and wise servant, whom his master has set over his household, to give them their food at the proper time? 46Blessed is that servant whom his master when he comes will find so doing. 47Truly, I say to you, he will set him over all his possessions. 48But if that wicked servant says to himself, `My master is delayed,’ 49and begins to beat his fellow servants, and eats and drinks with the drunken, 50the master of that servant will come on a day when he does not expect him and at an hour he does not know, 51and will punish him, and put him with the hypocrites; there men will weep and gnash their teeth.
Sang this one for the first time in A LONG, LONG, LONG time over the weekend.
