    Trump's Second Impeachment - A jump to conclusions

    This is more of a post to challenge those who believe that Trump should be impeached. My position is not that Trump should be impeached. I believe he should only be impeached pending the outcome of an inquiry or investigation into the incident. It seems that many accept the interpretation that...

    Evidence that US Capitol protest was an inside job?

    Trump supporters would have an obvious motive. They wanted to protest the election. But I wonder what would be the motive of the police officers helping the protests. Did someone tell them to let the protestors through or were there some sympathizers among them (esp. the officer that posed...

    Evidence that US Capitol protest was an inside job?

    According to a Politico news article, some Democrats are looking into if the mob that stormed the US Capitol had inside help. This comes after several videos have surfaced showing police taking selfies with protestors and even removing barricades to allow them to pass. Here's some of that...

    Trump and His Terrorist Have Lost.

    Here's another point to consider, and many may not have thought of it if they are just getting their information from one news source. If not every single pro-Trump protestor broke into the US Capitol so why are we painting all of them with a broad brush? Was it the majority of the protestors...

    The biggest problem.. Us vs Them mentality in politics..

    I'm not sure why it's so far-fetched to consider that BLM is a Leftist group or are at least aligned with the Democrats. They're obviously not far right nor pro-Trump and I hope we can all agree with that. The Democrat officials and left-leaning media certainly enabled them, harbored them...

    Trump and His Terrorist Have Lost.

    When people organize under that ideology?! Though they may not be a formal organization but they do have groups. Let's start here: Antifa (/ænˈtiːfə, ˈæntiˌfɑː/)[1] is a left-wing anti-fascist and anti-racist political movement in the United States. It is highly decentralized and comprises an...

    Trump and His Terrorist Have Lost.

    We saw extremism when it came to BLM and Antifa riots. Of course, we also saw it with pro-Trump crowds. Do you acknowledge both? If that's not extreme to you, then I won't waste my time pointing to any other examples. If you think only one group is extreme and not the other then I also won't...

    Trump and His Terrorist Have Lost.

    Trump has lost. But political terrorists on both sides are still here. The forces inciting extremism on both sides, starting with identity politics (using the race and class), corrupt political parties wanting power, among other things are still here. But I at least have confidence that Biden...

    The biggest problem.. Us vs Them mentality in politics..

    Your points are very important to consider. When I look at the problem in America, I see issues on both sides. The Democrats might make you think it's just Trump especially in light of the pro-Trump riots, but then I recall recent memory of Blm and Antifa and how some were defending or even...

    BLM is a hate group

    Some of the BLM leaders have incited violence and so has some in the media. This is why I think the overall picture of America is not just a Trump problem, but it's a problem of BOTH extreme Democrats and Republicans. I remember the no cop "autonomous zone" that was set up by Antifa in...

    What if Consciousness is Not Important?

    Not all choices are equal. In terms of Libet's experiments, I believe there are different types of choices. If we're talking about simple choices involving choosing between two options, especially if you make them repetitive, then i think those choices can be made without much thought. Your...

    What if Consciousness is Not Important?

    The problem I find is that we wouldn't know unless we were aware of the activity behind the scenes. So in the end, we're right back to consciousness.

    The Qualities of Awareness

    It seems that Salix makes a distinction between the mind and consciousness. If that were not the case, then I could even make more distinctions. For instance, some attributes of thoughts are that they involve information in various forms, from pictorial (mental imagery, dreams, etc.) to...

    The Qualities of Awareness

    Awareness is subjective or private. It is insensible in that it can not be detected or observed by anyone.

    Observers not allowed to monitor the vote count by the Democrats.

    You are not simply dismissing Trump's claim but you are also making a counter claim when you say that Trump is lying and that there is no voter fraud. Your claim: There is no voter fraud. ..... How do you know that there is no voter fraud?

    Observers not allowed to monitor the vote count by the Democrats.

    Perhaps one or a few anecdotals might mean little but if you start getting a lot of them then you can build a case. I remember studying NDEs. That type of experience was first known about through anecdotals. Those anecdotals were then expounded on when researchers collected more data...

    Observers not allowed to monitor the vote count by the Democrats.

    I feel as if we're getting off on the wrong foot here. As of now, we both agree that Trump has not provided verifiable evidence of voter fraud. But unlike you, I don't conclude that no evidence means that a claim is false. I know how to remain neutral. In a workplace, people are not always...

    Observers not allowed to monitor the vote count by the Democrats.

    Fact Check: Governor Tom Wolf is a Republican. Verdict: That is false. He's a democrat. Fact Check: We're in a pandemic, therefore workers should be 6 ft. apart. Verdict: It is true that we're in a pandemic, but workers can be in close contact at times, and I would think those times...

    Observers not allowed to monitor the vote count by the Democrats.

    Well I'm sure Trump is doing this for more than just wanting to know the truth, but his point is valid when it comes to there needing to be more transparency when it comes to poll watchers and other issues involving mail-in ballots. Doing this of course can lead to Biden winning. But the main...

    Observers not allowed to monitor the vote count by the Democrats.

    I think it is legitimate to question. But it seems that many want to draw conclusions before the evidence is in. If anything, all elections should be ran where you have at least two people involved in every manual count of ballots. No one should have a problem with this and if they did, I'd...
