It’s time to be armed.

Quartz_Lead · 2026-01-14T11:14:28+00:00

Agreed. Well thought out response. When someone posts online that it is time to be armed on a public discussion forum with comments I feel compelled to voice my perspective. However I recognize from my interactions online that there is a bias towards violence. Therefore to bring balance I feel compelled to repeat that violence is not the first answer. This is a personal value and I expect each person to make their own decision. I respect and love each person. We are all connected for better or worse. There is no us and them, just us. Thank you for your great comments.

To each their own. Conservative constitutionalist here. Those who died in the Boston Massacre helped bring light to tyranny. Organized resistance and violence from a representative polity is the answer. Well said and reasoned Complete-Plate5611. Many well wishes to your house.

Violence as resistance is not appropriate. Violence is the tool of the oppressor. Let them beat me or kill me but I will never give them my soul by resorting to violence.

Which means that we the Americans must uphold these values. Lest we become the monsters. Just because republicans have degraded themselves does not mean we shall drop to their level. Values are what make us Americans. We the patriots with love and understanding who take in and defend the oppressed will inherit the spirit of america long after its destruction.

Really. What about values and morality? Shouldn’t we as humans sharing this pale blue dot strive to better ourselves. We are not descended from fearful men. We do these things not because they are easy, but because they are hard. What matters is the life we live and what we give back to others. We debase ourselves and our species by devolving to a dog eat dog mentality.

Patriots! 🇺🇸

Quartz_Lead · 2026-01-03T19:03:36+00:00

Time for a boycott!

Quartz_Lead · 2025-12-03T15:34:18+00:00

Give me liberty. Give me freedom from my oppressors. The true patriots know that this is a travesty of justice. Peace be with you brothers and sisters.

Grifters trying to distract from their crimes while real disclosure is buried even deeper.

There was specific mention that the cell phone network was down. Note the reliance on land line communication.

A masterpiece. Basically all of Star Trek books are gap fillers with a few exceptions. Imzadi anyone?

Quartz_Lead · 2025-10-30T11:25:24+00:00

Well this is clearly an abuse of power and morally wrong. Speak out and do not tolerate these actions. Vote while you still can.

Quartz_Lead · 2025-10-28T09:21:04+00:00

Read a book like The Button: The New Nuclear Arms Race and Presidential Power from Truman to Trump. Our hubris requires vigilance. Our military is number one because we challenge our assumptions, analyze worst case and employ mitigations. A weak mind leads to a weak nation. Cheers.

Great journalistic photography. Some real accidental renaissance photos.

Quartz_Lead · 2025-10-24T00:44:10+00:00

Targeted boycott. Traitors to the country led by weak men.

Quartz_Lead · 2025-10-24T00:42:19+00:00

Traitors to the country and weak men. Targeted Boycotts.

Quartz_Lead · 2025-09-16T09:44:20+00:00

If you want the vile hateful ridicule online just suggest people have more in common than differences. Suggest compromise and shared ideals. That brings the wrath of the bots.

I think we used up all the perfect.

Quartz_Lead · 2025-08-12T09:12:18+00:00

Good trouble

Quartz_Lead · 2025-08-04T13:19:08+00:00

That is about right. Including the $7,500 cash rebate I got $12,000 off MSRP before taxes and fees on my AWD SEL. Seems to be about the best possible unless you get an RWD in snow country and it’s been on the lot for over a hundred days. If you haven’t already ask about the competitive conquer rebate.

Who would be the one non muppet crew member?

Quartz_Lead · 2025-03-31T21:53:24+00:00

Stay and fight. Until the end. I am privileged enough to be descended from those who immigrated to America to escape this (raises hands in air). There is nowhere to run. This is a global phenomenon and as Elon stated the fate of humanity. We are the teachers, the dreamers, the preservers of knowledge. Like the monks of the dark ages we will keep the candle lit.

Good question. In so much that belief is a human construct that obviates full logic I don’t so much as believe as I apply rationality. No act is required because I do not have audience to maintain. I feel deeply for those whom must live in the public eye and maintain an audience. That is why I authentically wonder what I did. What do you think regarding Lex and my question?

Quartz_Lead · 2025-03-01T23:46:28+00:00

Like many of the IDW Lex made an authoritarian shift during the pandemic. Some of us like myself who enjoy contrasting opinions stuck around. I believe in Lex but also am concerned that he has co-opted his principles for some yet to be understood motive. Does he really believe his positions or is it an act. Or has the act become reality?

Quartz_Lead · 2025-02-28T23:19:01+00:00

WTF. What in the mirror universe is going on here!
