      He was an incredible man. If only we could have him back.

      So wild that Fox News called him evil.

        Is it wild? Fox News. Who openly pushes Russian propaganda. They are openly the bad guys. It’s amazing they can exist and be so blatantly anti-human.

      Off topic but my personal theory on why trumps slaps with old people is he just talks real slow. To me it makes him sound like an idiot. If you’re curious about this just listen to trump at 1.5x and you’ll notice he somehow becomes more coherent. I mean, he still has some sort of mental disability behind all that but if I had unlimited money I’d do my own research on this.

      I don’t think Fred would be capable of that.

      He’d be telling anyone who would listen that mistakes are just a part of learning, even as our tortured Earth starts making the very air we all breathe make the last humans lungs burn.

      That’s why I certainly praise Fred, but could never subscribe to him. He had an unshakable conviction in the intrinsic decency of people. I’ve come to have conviction that the opposite is more often true.

      Honestly, I’m glad he’s not here to see this.

      Not gonna lie, I liked him in News Radio and didn’t mind him when just commentating on MMA.

                Yes. And an incel terrorist killed 32 people in my home town. Last week an incel terrorist killed 2 people and injured 6 more at FSU. I’m not saying you have to agree with the video, but give it a try

                  Incels are a very specific group of men who feel as though they do not have the ability to attract a member of the opposite sex. It’s not just some term used to put down evey sad disaffected white male.

                  Do I believe they are capable of terrorism, yes. Do I think they are dominant force in society, no.

    “We but mirror the world. All the tendencies present in the outer world are to be found in the world of our body. If we could change ourselves, the tendencies in the world would also change. As a man changes his own nature, so does the attitude of the world change towards him. This is the divine mystery supreme. A wonderful thing it is and the source of our happiness. We need not wait to see what others do.”

    – Gandhi
