Just joined, so I need to take a gander and find my way around, thanks!

The big push for illegal voter registration is one of the biggest threats to our country. As Democrats, like Warren, push to abolish the electoral collage, our coast's and southern border are bursting at the seams with untold numbers of illegal, potential voters. You can't help but think this has been a strategic plan, given their stance just a few short years ago was so different. Now they push for open borders and sanctuary cities. Just like the concentrated importation of Somolians to a designated district, to facilitate the election of a treasonous, racist, congresswoman. It's a numbers game. The same number game the radical Muslims play. They feel they will out breed the infidels. Time and numbers are on their side.Time to wake up has past........

The Communist/Democrat party IS our greatest threat as every single problem we face today, was caused by them! They need to be eradicated before we can truly MAGA!!!!

A pro gun, pro life, nationalist immigrant from Croatia living in Canada. And by nationalist I mean I am a patriot not assuming supremacy over anyone also a huge fan of the free market. I welcome all legal immigrants. Am very happy to be part of a community that can let me vent out my opinions in productive political discourse with others. I am very fed up with Justin Trudeau and his cabinet and the leadership in Canada needs to change.

I click on link to confirm email, I check my Inbox and have received no emails. Tried this numerous times. I have checked that the email address I gave was correct.

I'll check your account in the morning.

It may be going to junk . Sorry IDW...it happened to me.

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?

Thank you, I'm an Australian male who is fed up with my government running my country with an illegal constitution, it started back in the 70's when the government of the day signed us up to the UN Lima agreement, subsequent governments ignored a peoples referendum and rewrote the constitution instilling 3 tiers of government, AGAIN against a referendum vote, we have 1 or 2 honest senators speaking to the British privvy council, we are living on hope...

I just got here! 😀
Let me look around and I'll get back to you.

Is there a way to search for members? One member keeps wanting be to be 'friends' but I can't find them on this site.

Yes. Click browse then members. There is a search form there.

There is an option available for category posts that does not seem to be available for group posts. It is called 'link', and is available at the button that says [+post] above, right next to the button that says 'browse'. It is a nice way to post a link, but it doesn't let you put it in a group. (Just 'share to' a group, which really works poorly)

When I started listening to Ben and Dave I would have considered myself liberal. Now I'm a constitutional conservative. A big thank you to everyone who kindly debated with me, you all helped open my eyes to the hypocrisy of the left. I will always support free thinkers and freedom.

Wow, that's a pretty big jump on the surface but not incompatible to share both liberal and conservative viewpoints. It's also helpful to share concerns when deciding on policies.

Considering that someone like Jordan Peterson is a prominent member of the IDW I find it peculiar that "Psychology/Sociology" would not be one of the topics of choice when summiting a post. ???

Great catch! I added "Psychology/Sociology" and "Love & Relationships".

Make sure to get a very strong backend hosting provider and all that other tech infrastructure, because the rest of the interface improvements tend to flow naturally once you have everything you need to support it. More is always better.

On infrastructure, yes, more is better. In design less is more. Go figure! Yep, we're working on both ends to make the site better. Thanks for patience 🙂

I hope this site will remain free of sanctions for speech. I am so tired of Facebook telling me I have violated their community standards for posting somethin about Muslims or CHRISTIANITY. Tired of being in Facebook jail!!

Just remember to humanize any enemy that you might have. I have to re-read the "turn the other cheek" passage as to how many times are you required to turn cheek before speaking your mind?

New to this site and can't find the HOME button to take me back to the front screen?

Click the IDW logo and it'll go to the main page.

I think as long as you stick to your original intentions you will be fine. Dont allow this to get as convoluted as Facebook or as biased

Yeah, we're thinking more about design now. Do we want to be more reddit or Facebook. I'm thinking something in between where longer posts and comments are encouraged. FB seems to get more one-liners. Reddit a bit too tangled.

I am reminded and reminding myself to be truthful and honest as this seems to be in such short supply these days. As Eric Hoffer said, “Those in possession of absolute power can not only prophesy and make their prophecies come true, but they can also lie, and make their lies come true”.

Thanks Admin, I will

Excited to be here!

It would be helpful to have the capability to hover and/or right-click on a user's avatar to follow (or unfollow), rather than have to navigate to the user's profile page and click "follow" there. (The extra steps will tend to limit followers, if only because of laziness.)

On desktop, if you click on the "3 line" button, you can follow anyone there. Fast enough for you? 😉

As a retired educator, I am most concerned by the lack of knowledge students have today about American history and American Exceptionalism, in favor of pushing a Socialist agenda. My other concern is that freedom of speech is increasingly threatened. I’m here for the exchange of ideas and the access to Peterson’s Walsh’s, Levin’s, etc. writings and speeches.

Our first phase is community. Next will be more educational resources on the movement.

What a breath of fresh air being here.
I'm from Northern Ontario just recently moved to southern Ontario. My daughter is being taught in school of feminism and her views are tilted that direction. I teach her that impowering young women is great and I want her to succeed in life but life is in balance and that the views of extreme to take with a grain of salt. Listening and understanding can there be harmony.

I think a “question of the day” selected and discussed could try to focus people into one topic.

Yep! Thinking of a featured question or video every day so to help focus the community on a daily idea. ?

Have a button or click on list to see people or groups you want to look at. Have the main ideas or comments the only thing taking up most of the page. This is a good site but too busy right now.

We have some work to do on the main page to make it more simple. It will be our focus in the next few days.
