Just found out about this site on Minds.com. Looked around a little and joined.

I'm getting acquainted so let's see where the conversations go.

So far nice format and it does appear to be easy to navigate. I am a 60 yr old bat. I will nicely let you know of any issues. Thank you very much.

Just reading through peoples comments makes me want to run away. It feels like a religious platform. Not many activists to be seen. All more concerned about their precious mythology than the horrors engulfing our home atm.

I'll change the way posts are flagged so, now if people are posting personal testimonies of their faith, those posts will show up on their profile page and not in the general website.

@Admin oh sorry... didn’t mean to shut them down... but I am looking forward to the day when all these brainwashed people realise their true power and stop giving it away to some invisible make believe entity in the Sky. It’s ludicrous and the cause of so much warring on our magnificent home. I prefer INTERSPIRITUALITY. ?

@Speyedy Dear, please have some compassion for our fellow human beings that are not on your level of enlightenment.

@Bumpkin11 It’s not enlightenment but thanks ? It’s time to remove religion from public spaces and practice it in private. That delusion; that incredible piece of mythology made up by men who wanted to control the masses is the most destructive lie alive and it’s tragic that people believe it. But it’s that tragic belief that robs them ALL of the truth and keeps us ALL divided. Until people wake up to this glorious lie we will never evolve. ?

I’m surprised at the nonsense the liberal/ socialist/ left believes and espouses. Any free thinker can see it for the garbage it is, but we’re stymied by political correctness. They seem to be of the thought of old: If you can’t battle them with brains, baffle them with bullshit...So I am baffled a lot.

Worried about these leftist indoctrinated reprobates flooding to the voting booths.
I’m worried about the stifling of free speech and conservative ideas in schools and on college campuses.
The leftist/Antifa violence must not be allowed to go unchecked.

I'm a blue collar worker of predominantly Hispanic heritage. I live in a great city and an amazing state. Recently I have become concerned with the way we have become so polarized in our politics and identities. Growing up a native here it always felt quite diverse and accepting. The highest virtues weren't our differences, but hard work and and honesty. This seems to be going away. While I do feel we are in danger of losing these values, I also believe there is still time, and hope to stop this. I would love to see more events, perhaps in an open form discussion format, take place to remind us that first and foremost we Americans and secondly we are in this together

Hey no worries!

Why make it difficult to post?

How so? Happy to improve the interface... Just let me know 🙂

Thank you. I've only just joined and am learning the ropes. It's exciting to be here. I'm hopeful.

Is there a way to collapse the comments on a comment? I'm trying to go through the most like comments here, and I have to tediously scroll through all the answers.

Yep, as we grow we have to add collapsing comment replies. It's "on the list" 🙂

Don’t know yet I have just joined and it’s the first I have heard of this platform. I’m all for freedom to speak, so if that’s what your offering I’m in 100%

I like the concept of the site. I like the idea of a place to freely exchange ideas without the rage mob attacking you personally based on assumptions of what they believe you stand for. So thanks for launching this. I would be careful about the use of the SSL cert from LetEncrypt. They have had a few serious security flaws in the recent past. Really glad to see this up and going though.

I am confident that they are secure but happy to get more feedback in a private message. Thanks!

In all sincerity, I would welcome hearing a reasonable argument as to why the porous southern border of the US is NOT creating a crisis and that the overwhelmed Border Patrol Officers do not need emergency relief. With every bit of news I hear/read...other than the far left networks...it is confirmed that there is, indeed, an emergency.

Make a post 🙂

I have a fair number of friends holding the blue line. They all agree we have a crisis at the border. I've seen vids of ranchers who live and run their ranches along the border, they all say we have a crisis at the border. I'll take their opinions as 100% valid over any politician from either side being lead like bovine through the safe spaces by armed guards on a mission that has to be done by lunch time so they don't miss their reservations at the Top of the Mark.

I'm a white, Christian, conservative male so I am on here for a safe place to share ideas. As a Canadian I'm afraid for my children and the next generation. The NWO and Left has taken every institution in Canada and is forcing their ideology on everyone. These days to have an opposite opinion to a Liberal or Globalist is to be part of the "fringe right" or "Radical Conservative" . I believe in balance. However balance does not exist in our institutions, neither does common sense or facts. As a Christian I don't have a doom and gloom perspective on what is going on in society today because this was all predicted in the Bible thousands of years ago and its actually quite fascinating to see Bible Prophecy come true. It also reinforces my faith. I have hope because the Bible says that we win in the end. However things will get worse before they get better.

How long will it take to go through the worst and come out the other side?

@Letusdobetter not a time frame we have any chance of predicting. Once it starts and it is, just, it will roll in the creators time frame.

What about a tagable/ searchable meme database where people can post their best stuff that others can use for responses. I know I see memes all the time that I would like to save but having a repository of memes would be great

Check out the memes group. members can tag their memes and search by tags 🙂

How do you edit a post. I can’t stand rereading my typos

For about a day after you post, you can edit it by clicking the "Edit" Button below your post.

I have none

Just found this place tonight and I love your app. Is there a way to have the images/videos load so you don't have to enter the comment to see the image/video? I understand if there are additional images in the thread of the comment those could be loaded after you are in the comment but have the initial image or video viewable?

Yes, posts with videos will now show them in the post lists on the site and on the app. This is going live in phases all this week.

You do not have sailing on your sports lists?? Unbelievable.

Oh, you're so privileged 😉 How about post about your sailing in your profile?

I think the site needs to be accurate as to source, and seek to hold comment to the same.

Lists of sources would be very useful to build integrity of a new movement.

I am an archaeologist disturbed by the invasion of neomarxism into the subject.

Value judgements are being made and those are distorting the conversation

We've a field for links to sources when you make a post and encourage you to add source links.

@Admin I’m not a Reddit user and struggling with the format at the moment. It will take a bit of time

  1. When creating a new post, the "home" and "end" keys move the cursor to the beginning and end of a paragraph respectively. They should move the cursor to the beginning and end of a line, which is the way they work when composing a reply to an existing post.

  2. A person should be able to delete tags which the commenting software automatically added to his/her own new post or reply. I'm thinking specifically of the "psychic" tag. Here's my post where I got it, but that word is used in a non-paranormal sense in a very old quote. [slug.com]

[edited to add: I found you can downvote a tag, which I just did on my own post, but that isn't quite the same thing.]

When you down vote a tag on your post, it's the same as you delete them. We probably over designed it and may remove voting later. Cursor movements are typically briar dependent.

So, how do you down vote a post or a tag?
