    I'm sure we've all got a friend...like mine....who consider themselves 'normal.' I've got a good friend who for some reason, considers himself normal.

    So I don't want to be normal. I don't want to be anything close to normal.

    I mean I'm an Orioles Fan.

    Look to DG.....he's a freakin Browns fan.

    Normal is subjective.

    Considering who is President, I think you underestimate.

    People do conspire to make things happen in secrecy and that is historically proven many times over. That does not mean every circumstantial claim is true of course.

    I do not subscribe to the accidental view of history nor to the idea that everything is a plot or conspiracy. I believe the Truth lies somewhere in between and often what can be interpreted as planned events are simply those who take advantage of events and the occasional "Crisis" after the fact. For example I am still open to the idea that COVID was a lab accident, but that does not mean the Fauci bunch did not take full advantage while covering up their research tracks. I think 9/11 was a real surprise and intelligence failure, but the National Security State took full advantage even at the price of our liberty and privacy.

    Do you see how that works?

    Why let a good crisis go to waste?

    Of course events provide a channel to direct law, government or financial aspects in the direction the reigning power wants. They justify it under 'for your own good'.

    I function a great deal of the time on Occam's Razor. That and 'Trust but verify' comes in a close second.

    Personally, I feel there was more truth to be had before social media, where facts can be spun to suit even the smallest person's whim. And then it's carried forward by the 'true believers'.

    Yes, there was a virus. What caused it to spread, I withhold judgement. Absolutely government, in the guise of Mr. 'I Am Science' recommending a pointless exercise in 'prevention', decided it was time to move forward with creating a new dependent class.

    I believe there was more underlying activity and information in pre 9/11, but was likely considered not an immediate threat. They were wrong, at the cost of 3,000+ lives.

    Trump just had fun with it and offered the reward for anyone that could present it. He never said it did not exist. He just offered the reward.
    So then when the Governor of hawaii told the media that it had been lost in a hospital fire, then why would anyone be surprised when a scan shows up years later.

    The only thing you can figure is that if Obama did that, then his strategy must have been to try to look like a victim of racism. He basically fed the entire thing.

    Lets face it. They put a little black girl on TV every day to lie for them so they can call us racists and misogynists if they call her out for the liar she is.
    Who is that?
