Until we move past the deliberation of 'free speech', we'll never have honest discussions.

We just get a bunch of honking in its place.
Until we rid ourselves of lefty politicians we will never have an honest discussion about anything. If you say the sky is blue one of them will get offended and another will be triggered because he mother threw out her favourite blue dress when she was three.

Well, the "lamestream" media generally uses a combination of techniques to distribute its content; papers, radio, TV, internet.

Podcasts are discrete programmes, each produced and then distributed by the internet. They ARE content.

Hope that helped.
Silly me. I made the question too short for the simple minded. I meant between lamestream media and racists.

But isn't Mainstream Media really a bit like fake news nowadays?

As a media figure who barks out the news if you editorialize a bit and tell how you really feel about a topic, you can easily get sh*tcanned from your job.

So the fakeness actually doesn't come from what is said...but really from what is not said.

Anyhoo...back to the thread topic.

When you are young, you think your Pop is superman. My dear old Dad is one of those Liberal Lifer Voters. It was when he kept supporting Dalton McGuinty that I realized the image I had built around my Father was a pillar of sand.

Sad to hear that, T-Bones.

But perhaps that adversity made you stronger...made you who you are today?

No problem. He had a one-night stand (probably literally standing up against the side of a pickup) with a drunk 16-year-old. Probably wouldn'ta been much of a role model.

Whatever good there is in me is 100% due to Grandmother.

Everything else is on me.

"Show me someone who has done something worthwhile, and I'll show you someone who has overcome adversity."

My brother took his own life on Dec 29th as I mentioned before. I vacated my mental health forum because of the smothering moderation. So I've hung around here telling corny jokes and kibbitzing as a form of therapy.

Humour and music are my bullets against adversity. I know I'm not everyone's cup of tea, but thankfully for the most part you've all been sporting and friendly to me...and that goes a long way in my books! ;)

Hoof, everybody here likes you, and the bollocking we give you is the same as the bollocking we all give each other, because to treat you differently would be an insult.

We're happy when you're around. We don't like it (but accept it and wish you well) when you feel the need to take a break. Your management of your issues is a great example to us all.

And your stories are a lot of fun!

Just the fact that you are open about your disabilities goes a long way as treatment. It should be insightful to others as well.

We have a lot of dippers like that on the coast. Even though they haven't represented working people for at least 2 decades there are still people that vote for them despite losing their jobs to poor political decisions. Baffling.

I remember my father have election signs for two different parties on the lawn. Can't remember his reason right now, but it would most likely be some kind of twisted joke.
