    Is America First An Empty Slogan?

    IMO the only people who misuse the term are those who denigrate it like the OP assertions and a couple of members who followed with their negative assertions about it's meaning. That is what people who use the term typically mean by it. Not the twisted ways so many of our fellow citizens have...

    Percentage of DP members (on jury) that would be INTIMIDATED by Trump/MAGA

    It does not matter what you consider it to be, it is a form of social media. You, I, and other members are in here sharing opinions, viewpoints, ideas, etc., along with various other forms of media (videos, news reports, and other source citations) in support or opposition. A failure to report...

    Percentage of DP members (on jury) that would be INTIMIDATED by Trump/MAGA

    Actually, what Trump's attorneys were looking for in that social media survey of potential jurors were phrases much along the lines as I highlighted in the post I originally responded to. As well as anything else that showed a clear prejudice against the defendant. I served as a public...

    Percentage of DP members (on jury) that would be INTIMIDATED by Trump/MAGA

    Don't worry. IMO you'd be kicked off such a jury for good cause. A simple review of your post history in this Forum would lead to that if you honestly listed this among your social media memberships (as required by this Court case for voir dire purposes), much less if you have Facebook, Twitter...

    Will your vote be earned, given, or abstain?

    My vote has already been earned in the Presidential race. I am waiting to see what is what in my State and Local elections i.e. needs to be earned at those levels.

    Legalization of Sex Work

    I opted for "legalize with heavy regulation." Legal adults only. That means requiring licensing, inspections, clean facilities, wage rules, periodic medical and mental health exams for "employees," and security systems for the workers.

    someone hands you a gun and says its empty - do you believe them and point it at someone and pull the trigger ?

    Of course not. :rolleyes: In the first place, I would never point a gun and shoot at someone simply to prove it was or was not empty. That is insanity. o_O In the second place, anyone who has ever been trained to handle a gun has several ways to see if one is loaded or not. So, I would simply...

    Consequences of "unfriending" someone on Facebook

    I had a Facebook account back when it first came out and was limited to active college students. That was when I was working on my first graduate degree. I deleted the account a few months later because it was pretty juvenile. Never regretted deleting it.

    The Stupidity Of Gender Affirming Surgery And Hormone Therapy

    I am sure more and more information will come out against this horrible ideology, which really has no basis in sound scientific method. I've pointed this out a number of times: https://debatepolitics.com/threads/swedens-u-turn-on-trans-kids-the-trans-train.510113/ Now I can't find the other...

    Do you think O.J. killed Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman?

    I am not going to speculate. I was not a witness to the murder, but regardless he was found not guilty by a jury in the criminal case. It does not matter what the civil case found, as the standard of proof is lesser and it is only a liability issue, not a criminal determination. He may well...

    This is actually real... Scrabble too intimidating for coddled GenZ... they changed the game to make it less "competitive"

    Can't really blame the game company. They are in business to make money. So if there is an actual market for this kind of thing, then more power to them.

    Republican party leaders including presidential nominee, SoH, meet definition of unreg. foreign agents of Russia?

    IMO the obvious answer is NO, and this is just one more attempt to demonize Trump, Republicans in general, and anyone else who doesn't toe the Demon-rat Party lines via ad hominin accusations of some evil or another. Moral Panic tactics just keep on coming from the Left of the political divide...

    An unbiased and clinical evaluation of Trump and Biden's mental capacities.

    I don't agree. If he opted to take and keep those documents, regardless of their level of classification, then as the President of the USA and the ultimate authority to make or unmake classification, by his mere action to keep those documents they are no longer "secret." Literally. Like any...

    Experts are finding good results from basic income policies. Ultra rich are fighting to kill them.

    UBI is taking from those who strive and have, and giving to those who skate and so have not. It is a socialist idea where The State is all, and everything comes from The State. How well has that ever worked for any situation larger than a small commune? Even in most small communes it seems...
