Man this is an INSANE survey. It is almost too unbelievable to be true, I will not be bothered to read through the methodology and questions though. ("The margin of sampling error is +/- 3 percentage points with a 95% level of confidence.")

59% of dems support house arrest until vaccinated

48% of dems thinks fines or prison for people that question the efficacy of vaccines publicly.

29% of dems agree with removing children of the unvaxxed

45% of dems agree with putting unvaxxed in facilities until they comply

47% of dems agree with surveillance of the unvaxxed

Didn't the democrats love talk about the domestic extremists? I think they've found 'em. :)

I wonder how much of it is due to media influence. Our current media is pretty much an unelected branch of the gov, that now exists to interfere with the gov being held accountable by avg citizens. They exist to keep us divided, because if we weren't, then we would eventually agree that we need to replace all politicians and gov bureaucrats with common Joes that care about the citizens.

The bottom line here is that we need to unite and stand firm against being manipulated by newsmedia and solipsists in government. The biggest hurdle between here and a better society is if we de-fang these parasites by refusing to believe the lies they feed us, and focus instead on strengthening in-person connections and community.

Real connections to each other as real people is the begining of our solution. Our countries were never strong because we had tough politicians or some sense of ego, our nations were once strong because strong people not only took the lead but also did the work needing to be done.

We have lost our sense of reason, why we work, what our community is and who we are to each other.

Despite disagreement we need to make our path forward, the yelling, screaming and rhetoric need to end and we need to accept we can not keep trying to control others unless it is through our kindness and generosity.

When you have forced the homeless into homes and forced the hungry to eat then come and force me for my own good but the homeless and poor are far out front. I know this new cold virus was novel but lets take 100% of this effort and turn it toward world hunger. We will save more lives by far, sadly this is not about saving a single life.

This is very true, but we also can’t ignore the fact that in a lot of ways we see the world differently, like I’m not even that far right but I think that a lot of the things say, snafu thinks or believes is just bat shit, and I’m sure he feels the same way about what I think/believe..so there will always be some divide but what the media does is make it impossible to find a compromise and instead promote the “if you don’t agree with me you should be canceled or put in jail

Stress during pregnancy will alter or could alter the child.

We have abundant evidence now linking being gay and the situation of the mother during pregnancy. When I realized that I was not a broken mess born wrong but very specifically and predictably going to be born gay, it really took any pressure off me to be anything but myself.

Mother's during pregnancy are carrying the very real future of humanity in their wombs. I think they should be pampered for that time.

I also think making a baby should never be an accident, and many of us should plan to not parent because we have no skills, but those are just old man opinions, the protecting pregnant women one is protecting everyone part is real no matter what age or beliefs you have.

This is really interesting and I never even heard of this, but my little brother who is the third born male and also was born during a time my parents were really stressed out is gay. Never heard there was possibly some pre conditions that could be determining factors, dosent change anything my brother is still my second favorite person on this planet after my niece
 
I assume “they” refers to the less than 1% of people who hold most the worlds wealth or atleat a good portion of it…I mean the most powerful people in the world must communicate with each other right ? And what would they talk about ? Hmmmm

I would also love to know, specifically, who "they" is.

So far, we've only gotten a vague idea other than a couple of celebrities like Bill Gates and Ronald McDonald.

If this is a vote I am with Ronald McDonald, because big feet.

"They are some big feet"

The 1% is really the .01% the other .99% are actually posers.
 
a couple of us seem intrigued by your claim - "they have now forced us to pledge allegiance to the communists every day" - @TripSitterNZ but you've so far chosen not to jump at the chance to substantiate your claim.

can you provide some background please?
