    Austin's Proposition Q - A misleading text that really grinds my gears

    I've received multiple texts from various groups with this language: We can debate the merits of Proposition Q separately; what I am worked up about is the absolutely false language about "Trump cuts" to city services like fire, EMS, parks, etc....

    Yeah, but I think it has to be both. Like the average 18 year old has to learn to be in service to the greater ideals in order to mature past egocentricism. It is for them, but it is also for America, because they are America. Lol. I like the idea of civics class....

    It is none of your business if somebody votes or not.  It does not disqualify somebody from having a valid opinion you can learn from.

  • ↳onok, not to be a downer or start a fight or offend anyone , I just would like to ask if anyone here has thoughts on the global political scene. I am 58 and have never given two fucks about politics because I just always knew it was a joke, a scam, a game being run on the people. But the moves lately have caught my attention. Yet, I do not watch TV at all. for almost 10 years. Because it is an tool used to control perception and thereby behavior. And I like to be free from control. I have some very radical beliefs, but I am always interested in learning how other people feel and think about their life. I know I am intelligent enough to believe I do not know everything and also that every belief I have now has been expanded from something that came before it so all of my beliefs are subject to be expanded.  so if you engage with me be prepared to not take anything I say as something I expect you to adapt to. I have strong feelings, radical beliefs, and I would love seeing if anyone else is fed up with the entire system as I am. 🤸🤸🤸🌼byUUnicornBlues
