My point in posting much of what I do from Social Media, is to bring some of you into the fray of what the majority of voters are seeing day in, and day out. As noted by most on here, you all dabble very little on social media, that same social media that the smart phone generation reads constantly is what gets planted in their minds. Their comprehension level is often 140 characters or less, now Twitter will allow up to 280...that may actually make it worse if the headlines are all they are reading.

Remember, in this era, the narrative sells, and gains traction only when trending via analytics on social media platforms and clicks on webpages. I am at the age of being stuck in the middle. I grew up on reading the remnants of my fathers Washington Post and Washington Star, then got wise to social media to monitor my kids and those I coached...I got sucked in. I consider myself a thinker, and struggle to believe anything I read in media, always thinking "what are they distracting me from", a natural inquisitiveness that honestly drives me nuts....and my family.

But I do read his posts and engage with him. I certainly don’t consider him to be an ‘enemy ‘.

The only other poster I did that with is a poster who is reliably spewing hate and bigotry. I prefer not to open a thread to that level of anger and ignorance. I still can open those posts or see them in others’ response to him, but I prefer not to feed the troll.

I don’t find your posts to be something I’d prefer to ignore, but I’d appreciate it if you wouldn’t resort to personal insults. I’ll give you the same respect.

Show respect by insulting someones opinions with comments like whine with that cheez. Not once, but twice.

I honestly don't even think you realize that YOU show disrespect first and very often.

If she actually believed her blabbering BS about climate change, why does she live in NYC? I thought it is going to be under water? Same for Obama. If he actually believed in climate change, why’d he buy a huge estate on Martha’s Vineyard?

Hmmm.....the only other lemming that visits this lame website is MDLax. Same person? Certainly in mindset.

SO AOC did NOT support the folks protesting straight pride parade arrests? 3 sides to every story.....but not for most of the folks on these threads...

......next time your up this way, why don't you visit JP and the Lucy Parsons Center ?
