Re: Today Infowars, Tomorrow Booktalk?

Has Facebook ever mistakenly censored any liberal news sources? I honestly don't know what "Liberal" means any more. The left-wing people I know were concerned about the Alex Jones ban -- not because they like him, of course, but because of the precedent. Probably the most concerning acti...

Re: ex-christian.net

I just mean loosely speaking, on the new political scales that go left to right (liberal to conservative) as well as top to bottom (between authority and liberty). The vast majority of ex christians there come out as liberal libertarians, left of center and about mid way down in the libertarian low...

Re: ex-christian.net

What will happen to Popelissima Karen, and Island Girl, and the moderator who used to go around bumping old threads (I can't believe I have forgotten his name ,.-) and Skoorby (?) and all the others?

Re: Today Infowars, Tomorrow Booktalk?

“In the last few weeks we have seen the left for who they really are, who they always have been. Hi KindaSkolarly, I share your concern with large for-profit corporations taking over the role of censors of public speech. It looks to me as if we're facing something new here, with near-monopoly priva...

Re: ex-christian.net

Hi Harry! It's nice to see you again! I am the American guy who lives in Japan, who, on that other forum, couldn't shut up about William Blake for about 10 years. We had many good discussions over there, and I am pleased to find you. It's not stalking! After the other place shut down, I made a go of...
