What is a woman ?

This here --- >>>  "Civility, common courtesy, tolerance, and independent thinking has become taboo in our modern cancel culture" ... is sadly true.

And I do believe that a lot of people's behavior of late,  is due to the hateful rhetoric that they see/hear coming from the talking heads on MSM.

So when they hear a news anchor calling people sexist/racist just because they simply do not like a person's political views or whatever (I say politics, cuz that is what sets people off), and get a free pass for doing it, then people in general thinks it is okay to call someone sexist, bigot, anti-vaxxer (damn covid) to their neighbor, coworker, stranger or a family member

And when these commentators on TV come across lacking in being: courteous, civil, tolerant, respectful  of others that differ from them in opinion or looks, then hell, their nasty behavior is being picked up by the average person.

They then repeat the same nasty insults that they hear on TV to someone that they disagree with and they think it is okay, because just like a kid, they hear them say the crap in the news segments.

Politicians are another prime example -- they no longer 'just attack the politician' 

They attack the voter base that disagrees with them.
Once again, sexists/bigots/racists/deplorables etc etc
(... and Hillary wonders why she lost)

Yup, all this negative, hateful rhetoric being played 24/7 coming from both our leaders. schools, colleges, MSM and Social Media ------- and you have the cause & effect as to why being civil, respectful, tolerant, courteous is now taboo in today's modern culture

Just my humble opinion, mind you

I heard earlier today that the talking heads can get away with this because they are only speaking their "opinion", and they cannot be sued or held accountable for espousing their "opinion". 

That is why it is not called news. It is called an "opinion piece".

Facts are not necessary. Whatever method that works in controlling the hearts, minds, and souls of the masses, they will employ.

We choose to believe who we want to believe. You can't fault the paid syncophants for lying. No more than you can fault a snake from biting you, if you hold it to your head or breast.

Some things we have to take responsibility for.
