@CONSERVATARIAN The salvation army have yet to ask me for a donation via one of their collectors, therefore I have yet to tell them I don't appreciate being branded racist by your organisation and they are in effect cancelled.

From what I understand prohibition just drove alcohol underground,

@apropos @amerika @thor

I think and the end of the day it comes down to education, we need to start at school and look at the effects of drugs / sugar / alcohol not from a legal perspective but how they actually impact our bodies

Aimed with science backed information make our own informed choices, but knowing that our own choices have consequences. ;

Teach people they are responsible for their actions, what ever those actions are, ride a bike in to someone and injure them, take responsibility rather than blaming the other person, if someone steps right out in front of you and you just collide, then perhaps they need to take some responsibility.

of course at times things are no ones fault, it is just an accident.

if Bidan / Harris are seen as not fit for purpose, this is even more scary as it is pretty much handing trump the keys to the whitehouse. if he runs again and wins that race.

When i was at college (early 90's we had a range of differnet cultures in my group, we got on with each other, they were a great bunch, we had a few muslims went off on a friday to do their thing, we were all fine with it.

We were doing engineering, which one day we had a big laugh when the teacher put a picture of a screw on the board, with lables, the very end was called 'land' which is Indian for penis, understandably that group just started laughing, once challenged to explain what was fully we all had a laugh.

Something then went wrong with our society where we are too afraid in case we offend.

Yes, there is a you tube video somewhere telling the story of how While my guitar gently weeps was ignored and George got Eric Clapton in to Abbey Road to help make the record.

I agree build something better, and make sure people who join can expect a range of opinions they may not agree with, but are welcome to join in with rational ideas and input.

As we are not PC / Woke here, the next time someone from the church tries to lecture about morality and ethics, remind them of the child abuse that has taken place under their watch,

@amerika @thor Like the beatles, Love on another, well I that may be mostly George, but 'All you need is Love' seems relevant to day.

As i understand it, Iran has not actually started ANY Wars in a long long time, In the 80's it was Iraq who started that war.

@amerika @thor

Yes lets Be Excellent to each other :)

@amerika @thor @wildgoose

Look at Iran, we tried to make it more western back in the 60's and that failed we ended up with what we have now.

We are assuming Iran wants nukes, I get the feeling it wants to provide power for it's people, not sure if uranium enrichment is all about making weapons grade material, but separating used material so it can be re-used in reactors.

Travel as in on vacation, or holiday to experience other cultures.

@amerika @thor

So long as social meda is about taking selfies to fit in to the look at me culture where everyone feels they are the centre of the universe, then nothng is going to change.

I have never really seen selfies on fedi,

@thor @wildgoose @amerika

Indeed, we are different cultures, we should accept that and stop trying to ram one values in to another.

It would be great if Iran could really open up, they have some excellent historical / cultural heritage ad travel is a great way to rally learn about other people / cultures.

@thor @wildgoose @amerika

I remember a photo on fedi a few years ago 2 children playing ona makeshift sea saw, on the IUS / Mexico border fence,.

My comment was hat children just see children as other children and just play together, it is adults who see people through their color, religion etc, and treat people differently

When i was about 10/11 we visited my mums pen friend in France, she had a son about same age as me, we played for hours, me speaking in England, him in French, I don't think we understood each other, but that didn't stop us playing.
