Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsI HAVE REFUSED TO LISTEN TO THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA FOR THE PAST WEEK.
I tune into Free Speech TV or watch favorite TV shows or listen to podcasts. I. WILL. NOT. listen to 24 x 7 x 365 squawking about how "Democrats are losing!" "Democrats are losing!"
WHY BOTHER having elections when these insidious squawking shitbirds ALREADY DECIDED who won?
FUCK THAT. The goddamned polls are RIGGED (ie: polluted with a bunch of Republican polls saying they're winning -- that they can point to when/if they lose and scream "FRAUD!" and they are all over the goddamned place.
Polls in the past have been VERY wrong and I don't know that now is any different. ESPECIALLY with the Republicans dumping slews of slanted ones in their favor into the entire pool of polling out there so they can scream "FRAUD!" when or if they lose.
NO.
I voted. I encouraged others to vote. I donated. I wrote letters to voters encouraging them to vote.
PEOPLE NEED TO ABANDON THE GODDAMNED POLLS AND GET THEIR ASSES OUT AND VOTE! There is no more time left. THIS IS IT. I we want anything EVEN RESEMBLING a Republic or Democracy we HAVE. TO. VOTE!
Now, back to my favorite TV shows, and FreeSpeechTV - I will NOT watch the mainstream news now or on election night. (I will be on FreeSpeechTV possibly but maybe not even that).

(5,811 posts)I listen to one of the MeidasTouch podcasts. I'm also doing my 30,000 daily steps at the same time.
I was suspended from Twitter on Wednesday or Thursday for calling Clarence Thomas "that negro" which unlike the N word is considered hate speech. Who knew. Anyway I logged out and it feels good.
I'm going to be spending more time on Tribel (which is Latino owned) as I wait for my much prayed for WAKANDA FOREVER SOCIAL MEDIA platform.
