Who is WEF and who is not
I missed the dustup last night regarding who is a WEFer.
It’s all speculation on our part because many future leaders were invited to the WEF and may or may not have gone. Some may have attended but saw through the BS. It’s like throwing out a fishing line to see what you you haul in.
Is Gabbard WEF? CFR? May or may not have attended but may have seen the light and rejected their principles. Many here held views in the past that were opposite what we believe now. People change.
Is Milei WEF? From what his platform was, I would say no. Will he be successful? I have no idea but Argentina has had decades of Socialist rule which has destroyed the country and it will take a lot of pain and time to turn it around. He’s going to piss off a lot of people on his way to rescuing the country.
On the other hand, one could argue that he is being used by the WEF to show that populism is bad for the country. Likely unknowningly used. That is not my thought but I read that opinion recently as his success is a long-shot.
Taking down a post as was done to Kestrel is something I would hope would not happen but instead a debate could be started to put forth both sides. We accuse the other side of that we do ourselves.
I was removed from an International Skiing Forum a few years ago for suggesting that Carbon Allowances, Digital ID’s and CBDC’s “could” seriously affect the skiing industry if we let them. I was gone without giving me a chance to reference my statements.
I believe Aussie Digger left that forum of his own volition for similar statements which are now in the Mainstream.
When I see some of those skiers here, they now agree it “could” be a thing. Most of the posters are progressive types that are now discovering the truth.
Many of us have been shut down as Conspiracy Theorists without being able to explain why we hold those beliefs.
Received the Annual Christmas letter from a cousin who is deep within the Branch. She recognizes that there is division of families and discord between friends in the country but we should basically get over it. No, we can’t forget or they will do it again. She’s likely shotted up the Wazoo and has had Covid many times, shingles and likely other side effects but still clings to the shot. For the Common Good!
Chrystia Freeland is her MP and a group of them hosted a fund raiser when she was running for the first time. She still thinks she’s great.
I did not understand Kestrel’s comment either but we needed more clarification before yanking the post. I wanted to hear the other point of view. I guess we lost another poster.
“we needed more clarification before yanking the post.”
Just to re iterate … I condemned the post, but didn’t take it down.
Once it was taken down, I was supportive of the move.
The clarification wasn’t there, and the poster had every opportunity to elaborate and didn’t.
In fact, given Milei’s speech posted here days ago, and Fully’s remarks on it, it was INCUMBENT on the poster to elaborate. Otherwise, its a loose tongued, unsupported, drive by shooting. No problem with dissenting opinion. None whatsoever. Indeed, I welcome it, it should be obvious by now. (I even reposted Kestrel’s post as an invitation to reply with more detail!) That’s how we learn. But flippant remarks with no followup support. ‘Nuther story.
Authors cannot remove other author’s posts
The post was deleted not the poster. Kestrel is still an active poster .
People come and go here and everywhere
The post was incoherent and served no purpose
“Melee is WEF”….(the mispelling was part of the incoherence)
THAT’S IT….no supportive link no context . just “Melee is WEF”
