What I found more disheartening was watching reasonable people turn into frothing-at-the-mouth, anger-filled, irrational ideologues/partisans during the last 4 years. At the other forum there were people who for years had been good posters, great people to discuss with. Then over the last 4 years, they deteriorated. Suddenly, any reason to be outraged was good enough to come in and talk about how absolutely horrible and amateurish trump was. The initial anchoring would stick even after facts refuting things came out. For example, Koi-gate. These people laughed at the big dope Trump pouring all of his fish food in. He was impatient, he didn't know what he was doing. Magical experts came out and told us how bad it was for the fish, how trump should have known this very obvious fact. He was an embarrassment to the country. After it came out that the video was edited and zoomed in on Trump, and the actual unedited video showed that Abe had dumped his food first, and Trump merely followed suit, those opinions remained. And these were people who had been rational debaters. It was sad.

Absolute authority over who in the GOP has positions of power vs who does not based on publicly expressing fealty to him ( liz cheney/Elise Stafanik )
Not even close to fear mongering. But, it is clear (though I don't know how) that his rhetoric and the conservative media have been able to serve as a gatekeeper to the truth even for you.
Trump even has CD, an atheist, in his infinite power and control.

I commented on some of the others too, as can be seen starting here - including one about sand deposits that you thought was about glaciers.
You compounded your gullibility by refusing to say how old you think the Earth is - not exactly the mark of some-one who is intelligent or informed.

Originally posted by Mountain Man View PostYeah, he's referring to the one time I posted a number of links showing proof of a warm earth in the past, and one of the links I inadvertently posted was to a spoof site claiming there were pyramids buried under pole ice. Naturally when this was pointed out to me, I thought it was funny and immediately owned up to my mistake. Of course Ignorant Roy chose to focus on only that link and blatantly ignored the other dozen or so legitimate sources I had posted.
