I'm not sure that treating trans people like caged animals does much to further the discussion, or for all the faults now is a good example of how to strike a better balance. I知 not suggesting a caged animal return. I知 suggesting that tolerance works both ways in a democracy and that the majority should be entitled to opinions without the minority demanding that they change. When democracy disappears you normally get an extreme that fills the vacuum; that is where it might not end well for the minority.
hats off to palace, they were always gonna be louder, and hate to say it but they were impressive ALL bouncing and singing. |

Certainly, the right balance is people of course being allowed their opinion, and also for also people to also be able to get on with their lives unimpeded. Social media environments lack the nuance of real life and so you essentialy just get people signing up to mindless clans massively for or against this, that or anything rather than having actual conversations - so they're funtionally a complete waste of time for society. Most aren't like that of course, but the volume nob (excuse the pun) is inevitably controlled by those who are.

Not sure if this is part of the Great Reset malarkey but there is a pretty major correction going on at the moment in global stockmarkets and its barely rating even a whisper on main stream news outlets. I confess to having a tin-foil hat tendency as I get older, and jolly good fun it is, but I have long believed that one of the key elements of trying to understand this modern world is as much about understanding what is NOT being reported as opposed to what is. And something bloody odd is happening.

We値l see how much this reaction to the true level of inflation, or really stagflation knocks stocks south.

I'm no expert by any means but some are saying that its essentially recession Bear Market with a further 10-35% downside. We will see. Eventful times - and not in a good way.

If your on the end of it, which the whole world is, age wise with returns I mean; then yes very bad but it is cyclical. The world has had boom and bust a few times. This is a bust moment unfortunately and the boom will come again.

Can稚 find the fuel thread but in Ecuador the indigenous groups are blocking roads with burning tyres in protest over the cost of fuel. Boris clearly gets around

That and just hang on for the (possibly long) ride until things start picking up again eventually. When people panic they tend to make bad choices. Hold on tight!

This is true, only the wealth gap and the difficulties without capital or inheritance or not receiving capital from parents as younger adults situation is getting worse after each crisis and effect of bad decisions our masters are making. The last couple of decades have a lot to answer for.
