It is possible it was never real. The Internet is funny that way. I might have become real, but we may never know.

I am thankful it is cancelled. Not a fan of extremists on both sides getting together in our city. We need more centric thinking and less extremism that is the headlines of our news every minute of every day.

My how times have changed.

I felt the same way when Skeeter Swift was traded.

Listening to Brown, Walk and Blass for me is painful enough. No way I could listen to Prince.

Looks like a support of free speech to me against the monopoly of communications company giants? I didn't know this had become a "loony" cause in modern times. If it is, then are we actually living in George Orwell's 1984?

Scary stuff indeed.

Infowars is a pile of hot fecal matter. Seeing something of importance or validity within that is indeed scary stuff.

From Wikipedia:

The paradox of tolerance, first described by Karl Popper in 1945, is a decision theory paradox. The paradox states that if a society is tolerant without limit, their ability to be tolerant will eventually be seized or destroyed by the intolerant. Popper came to the seemingly paradoxical conclusion that in order to maintain a tolerant society, the society must be intolerant of intolerance.

For the past 6 months nearly everyone was a russian hacker. Now everyone is a nazi. Strange how easy people toss around insults to silence fellow citizens while refusing to take any responsibility for what happened in VA on saturday. Because, if you're fighting nazis, then all violence is fair game. Personally, I think you're all nazis. I'm the least racist person ever and you all make me sick. Most of you are probably white. Gross! Yuck! How's that for virtue signaling? Was that progressive enough for Pittsburgh and the trendy east end?
