Dear Belly,

Our hope is with America's youth.

The Vietnam war came to an end largely as a result
of the antiwar movement, a social movement that
consisted disproportionately of young people,
including many college students. When the antiwar
movement first challenged the war, it received
little support from politicians or the press, and the
goals seemed hopeless. But the tide of public opinion
gradually began to shift. In the 1968 presidential
primaries, an antiwar candidate backed the student volunteers
did unexpectedly well and President Johnson decided not to
run for re-election. From that point on, political debate
on the war focused not on how to stay in it, but on how
to get out of it.

Through collective action, ordinary people with few resources
other than their own determination had changed a national
consensus for war to a national consensus for peace.

A fundamental insight of sociology is that once people no
longer take their world for granted, but instead understand
the social authority of their lives and futures, they can
become an irresistible force in history.

We can only hope that whether American choose to destroy
their civilisation or save it - this is a collective
decision - and we trust that will be made sooner than later

Foxy, that doesn't mean anything.
Living somewhere doesn't necessarily make you informed.
Only getting the right information does.

Tell me if living somewhere makes you informed; then what do you know of Alexander Downers relationship with discredited FBI counter-intelligence officer Peter Strzok in relation to the Russia collusion investigation...

Not trying to be rude or anything, but you don't.
Have you been following Spygate since before the US elections?
I have, it's now day 602.

I've told you all my sources before.
Infowars, What Really Happened, George Webb channel on YouTube, and X22 Report plus I have developed a 6th sense now.
I can smell something foul a mile away.

My sources keep me informed.
Yours keep you in the dark.

My media can't be bought.
Yours is paid for.

Dear AC,

I not only lived there I worked on a university campus
had had the privilege of having access to the best
and the brightest. I also travelled extensively and
met and interviewed many well-known political figures.
So kindly don't tell me what I know and what you know.
This is not a competition or a battle of some sort.
What I know - you have yet to find out. What you know
doesn't interest me. It's far too narrow.
