yep, tensions in world are all down to marxists, academics, lesbians and gays, and the ABC and their counterparts around the world.

How do I know, because posters on OLO told me so.

Dear Chris,

As long as people continue to blame somebody else,
they don't have to look at themselves.

Communication is key.

That's what we all should be doing - talking.

That's probably why we invented all those social
media forums.

But each one that gets invented soon gets taken down
because of stupid people
talking absolute nonsense.

At least on this forum - you get a wide choice of diverse
opinions - which is why people do stay.

Foxy,
America is a group of States, and it was the Democratic States that was hit most by the Wuhan virus, covid-19. Trump does not control the individual States, how about blame State leaders.

Josephus,

The President is both the head of state and the head
of government of the United States, and Commander of
the armed forces. He is responsible for the execution
and enforcement of the laws created by Congress.

Also don't forget when the President declares a national
emergency - he's in control.

Josephus,

And now ? Which states are experiencing rapid rises in the number of Covid-19 cases ? Red or blue ?

As far as I can tell, they almost all seem to be red states, i.e. pro-Trump, apart from California, Hawaii and Delaware:

I've just found a lovely prayer from Marianne Williamson
in her book, "Illuminata", that even though some of
you may not be religious - I think the prayer can speak
to us all and is appropriate to share in this
discussion. It's a - "Prayer For The World".

Dear God,

We pray for this our world.
We ask that You remove the walls that separate
us and the chains that hold us down.

Use us to create a new world on earth, one that
reflects Your will. Your vision. Your peace.
In this moment, we recognize the power You
have given us to create anew the world we want.

Today's world, dear Lord, but reflects our past
confusion.
Now, in this moment, we ask for a new light.
Illuminate our minds.
Use us, dear Lord, as never before, as part of a
great and mighty plan for the healing of this world.

May we no longer be at war with each other.
May we no longer be at war within ourselves.
Let us forgive this century and every other, the
evils of history, the pain of our common fears.

Remove from our hearts the illusion that we are separate.
May every nation and every people and every colour and
every religion find at last the one heartbeat we share.
Through You, our common Father/Mother and the redeemer
of our broken dreams.

May we not hold on to yesterday.
May we not obscure Your vision of tomorrow
but rather may You flood our hearts.
Flow through us, work through us, that in our lives we
might see the illuminated world.

Create, sustain that world on earth, dear God,
for us and for our children.
Hallelujah, at the thought.
Praise God, the possibility that such a thing
could come to be, through You, through Your light
that shines within us.

So may it be.
So may it be.
We thank You, Lord.
Amen.
