When Trump loses the election.
Foxy,
Trump winning or losing that election, either way the vindictiveness & lack of soul of the Left will not allow good will to influence their indoctrinated supporters. Just look at yourself as an example !

I don’t know about “the exposure to the requirement of merit”, Indyvidual, but I do know that we all live in a world of our own construct to varying degrees. That we are limited by the aptitude and quality of the physical sensors and intellect with which nature has endowed us.

While I am conscious of the fact that we do not have access to all reality, I do my best to avoid projecting my ideas, ideals and beliefs onto whatever fragment of reality I am capable of perceiving with the “tools” nature has equipped me.

Dear Armchair Critic,

1. « … you mentioned 'Yiddish', so I wondered if you might be Jewish … »

No, I’m not Jewish. I came across that Yiddish joke that amused me in an article I found on the internet.

2. « I came across a youtube video yesterday, showing an 'Eye of Providence' on the Eiffel Tower … »

The Eiffel Tower forms a triangle but, to the best of my knowledge, there was no Eye of Providence on it, nor any reason why there might have been.

3. « I also noticed that the Olympic medals have hexagons on them »

I haven’t examined the medals, but it’s not surprising that they have hexagons on them. The French often refer to France as “the hexagon” which is the country’s geographical shape.

4. « It's kind of sad you know watching the Western world become so polarised, divisive and slowly ripped apart »

Civil war seems to be an inherent defect of human civilisation, Armchair Critic.

There are about 30 ongoing civil wars at the moment. Historically, I think there have been more civil wars than there are countries in the world, several having had more than one civil war to date during their lifetime – with probably more to come !

Dear Banjo,

Thank you for the link.

It's quite inspiring - re-affirming that by aspiring towards
democracy, we're on the right track provided we do it the
right way. Democracy does matter.

Banjo Paterson,
Almost everyone is capable of perceiving but only few perceive correctly !

Indyvidual,

"Can you climb trees, use your whiskers to navigate or
retract your claws. Can you see in the dark. Make over
40 different sounds. Do you have impeccable hearing?"
asked the Silver Fox.

NO?

Then you have no right to express an opinion when sensible
people are speaking.
