Good morning boys and girls and everything in between. What a trying week it has been. Before we enter the Prayer Revival just a few housekeeping matters to take care of. (Rulz for those of you in Whitefish Bay) 1) This is an open thread. Feel free to lurk, opine and/or bloviate within the AoSHQ guidelines. 2) Be kind, be nice. 3) No running with sharp objects. 4) Have a great weekend. Lord, thank you for our relationship. Without you and your wisdom I would be lost. You have provided for me and my family again and again. You have protected me, comforted me, and have given me strength when I was tired and weak. Thank you. I'm scared, Lord, and I don't know what to do. Evil seems to be everywhere and on everyone's minds. You tell me to forgive, but I'm finding it hard to. You tell me to love my enemy, but I'm finding that impossible. I feel lost, surrounded by Satan's lies. You tell me to see the good in people, but I just can't anymore. Even parts of my family and friends have been tricked by the enemy. The evil one has used the world to convince them that sin is acceptable. That your word doesn't have to be followed, because it doesn't line up with what they want to believe. Help them, like you have helped me, to see your light. Help them realize this is spiritual war and that there is only one side that is righteous. Your side. Lord the enemies are at the gates, what am I to do? I trust you, but please help me, my family, and your church. We are all in danger from the evil one. We are hurting and in need of your strength. When you said that the world would hate me because of you. I didn't realize how true that would be. Faith in you is the only comfort I have. Don't let the world shake that faith. Jesus, I pray you have mercy on all who have died in your name. From the ancient Apostles to Charlie Kirk, all who have bled in your name, Lord help them and their families. Help the people who are confused, help the people who have turned from you and are now lost in ideology and hate. Help me to not hate those who support Satan and his evil ways. Help my children to stay in their Baptismal grace and for them to not fall into confusion and mental illness. Help your Church, we are suffering right now.

An interesting prayer. Started off real well with gratitude and acknowledgement of the wisdom and protection of God.
Then its like that person walked away and someone off the anti-anxiety meds came in and wrote the next paragraphs without any reflection on the first. Because the first paragraph is a retort to the rest At that point the prayer exposed the author as an evangelical because of the conclusion: I'm too weak, my faith is near gone, I need you to come to earth NOW and settle all of my differences. Go back to the first paragraph and meditate on that. Posted by: Unknown Drip Under Pressure at September 13, 2025 08:12 AM (a4flb) 19
@12/Don Black: The appropriate response would be for as many people (particularly private individuals or businesses) to fly their flag at half mast.

MisHum, that entire prayer was much needed by me. I wish I could memorize every word and recite it to myself daily. It touched upon everything I'm feeling.
I also watched Erika Kirk's address on Rumble this morning. It was impossible not to shed tears. Speaking for myself, I've been in a fog since that shining light that was Charlie Kirk was brutally assassinated. Things feel different. Dire. Uneasy. I'm being drawn closer to our Lord and Savior, for He is truly my refuge in these unholy times. I'm praying for everyone in need of healing, and in need of Christ's love.

Bass is an especially odious critter to be sure. It is remarkable how much damage a single low frequency individual can do in an organization.
She has not been selected for any management competence, merely for her political or ideological reliability. Government is now full of broads just like her. I suppose in a way their success in aggregate has been their undoing, because the policies they champion are ultimately designed to fail, intended to be failures.

I must add this exhortation.
In view of the prayer starting this thread, it is a dereliction of duty for any pastor to not be preparing for a comprehensive preaching of Ephesians 6:10-20 to be delivered on as many opportunities as possible. Its also likely that, if the assembly has a good reputation in the community, that there will be plenty of new opportunities to console and share the practical aspects of our faith.

I don't think Jesus was a pacifist. His words and deeds in the Gospel can be confusing. The writings after his death cause more confusion.
He never killed anyone, I don't think. But he took whip to some and he did tell his disciples to carry a sword (top of the line assault weapon of the day). Posted by: Braenyard - some Absent Friends are more equal than others _ at September 13, 2025 08:35 AM (RK8vO) 80

Failure in the spirit of Cloward-Piven. They are installed precisely because our enemies want the nation to fail. In that sense, they are profoundly successful. The issue with C-P, was that their strategery was to crush the welfare state as is so that it could be replaced with UBI. The crushing the welfare state extended to crushing everything because the ideology of destroying something for the principle of Marxism extend to also destroying the family, the community, the culture, language, borders, etc. it was like the question asked when cooking off the first atomic bomb test, would a chain-reaction devour everything - that question was either asked and answered by Dark Tetrad types, or exceeded the abilities of the implementor's ability to process abstracts.

They are just being obstinate, and have in the back of their minds the idea that Trump is a bully and if you just stand up to a bully, he slinks away. This is because none of them have ever fought an actual bully, whom you have to actually beat up, or at least make the cost of bullying not worth the risk of persistent violence in response.

I don't think Jesus was a pacifist. His words and deeds in the Gospel can be confusing. The writings after his death cause more confusion.
You need to understand the Meta Narrative. God (according to John, Jesus in particular aka "Word") created all things through Him. Jesus also has the name "Light" and in Him is "Life". The incarnate missions was to defeat Sin and Death. At His resurrection he initiated "The Age To Come" (aka Church Age) we are living in it. He gave the generations between his ascension and return (The Last Day) the Paraclete to aid the building of the Church (aka the Bride of Christ). The Paraclete's work is undoubtedly the most complex and comprehensive as billions of lives have His personal guidance. The LORD returns to judge the Earth. Sin & Death are cast into the Pit along with those who are not in the Book of Life. The idea of "killing" is nonsense in a spiritual context. Fear not the one who can take your physical life, but the one who can condemn your soul to Hell. Posted by: Unknown Drip Under Pressure at September 13, 2025 08:45 AM (a4flb) 103

Before I get any further into discussion, I have to offer thanks and praise to God and you, my prayer buddies, for the many blessings my family has received this week. I said last night that his week feels like it's lasted for years, and it goes far deeper than Charlie Kirk.
So many things have been hanging around, unfinished, so many relationships locked in silence, questions of health lying unresolved, and even minor details, like my long time web host (Typepad) announcing it was shutting down, leaving me scrambling for a replacement. All of these have in some way reached resolution - not final, but long-hidden pathways are now plain to see. My life has changed a lot since Monday, and I'm still processing it. Our family has also changed, in a very good way. I guess I will just say that with God, anything is possible. The person making that prayer at the top of the thread only needs to understand that. God hears all our prayers and answers them as well, but not in ways we expect. Posted by: Ace-Endorsed Author A.H. Lloyd at September 13, 2025 08:47 AM (ZOv7s) 110

In the New Testament he says he comes with a sword. This is consistent with Catholic teaching. Good has a duty to defeat evil, not passively sit there and die. Many martyrs did die, but they had no meaningful way to resist, and so rather than submit and live, they chose death. St. Michael the Archangel is not a pacifist. Posted by: Ace-Endorsed Author A.H.

The only thing standing between them and an Antifa bullet is Trump's government, and he needs it fully staffed NOW.

In the wake of the CK assassination, there has been spiritual outpouring from a very broad spectrum of personalities. My favorite is this tatted by gang banger whose vocabulary specializes on all of the variations and applications of the F-bomb. Diagramming the sentences would be interesting. Along the foul-mouther, vulgar language was the expression of sincerity, empathy and love for CK's family ending with a question of spirituality and a prayer.

The fear I had under Biden was that Trump would be killed, Biden would cover it up, and there would be sporadic riots and demonstrations in the right, followed by a brutal crackdown that creates further resistance from governors, who in turn are targeted and the military splinters over orders to open fire on the crowds. I was not only much in those days, but told my friends that if Trump got five points ahead of Biden he would be killed. look at the polling prior Butler. Thank God he survived, and now the correlation of forces is entirely different. An increasingly unified military is standing squarely behind Trump, and federal agencies are being purged in record time - helped greatly by the traitors self-identifying on social media. The left feels its power ebbing away, and so lashes out with pure wrath. There is no hope in victory, only violence and death. Posted by: Ace-Endorsed Author A.H.

WOW
Look at the BULLSHIT Grok is pushing on X this is supposedly an AI-generated news summation: Charlie Kirk Fatally Shot by Fellow Conservative at Utah University Event Last updated 4 hours ago Charlie Kirk, the influential conservative activist and founder of Turning Point USA, was fatally shot on September 11, 2025, during a speaking event at Utah Valley University in Orem, Utah. The suspect, 22-year-old Tyler Robinson from a Republican-leaning family, surrendered after his father turned him in, with authorities charging him with murder in what they called a political assassination motivated by Robinson's view of Kirk as insufficiently conservative and fascist-like.

Lloyd at September 13, 2025 08:55 AM (ZOv7s) ~~~~~ I generally don't use foul language, and I admit to feeling very uncomfortable when women use anything harsher than a damn, hell, etc. Lots of college kids come to my town in the summer, and I don't think many of them can complete a sentence without dropping an F-bomb. " Anyone see my f'ing car keys?" And the girls are absolutely the worst. I didn't grow up with swearing in the house, and my own kids don't curse in front of me. It stuns me to hear parents using f-bombs in convos with their kids. All that being said, I have to admit that I've cursed more this week than any time since I worked in a refinery years go and mastered the art.

Posted by: Quarter Twenty at September 13, 2025 09:03 AM (XQo4F) --- Very much so. People blathering on about "cultural Marxism" are blind to the truth that this is demonic energy, not a political or ideological dispute. For one thing, gays and trannies are not at all Marxist. Marxists regard them as bourgeois decadence. Look at Communist China. People who do that there get sent to camps. It is a combination of vile heresies, and a desire to mar God's creation. Everyone felt that oppression - and we felt it lift last November. The demons certainly felt it, and are now spooling out their people to create as much mayhem as possible now that their plans to turn the US into a pagan nation have failed.

I think what is happening is the younger generation is telling their parents and grandparents about Charlie Kirk.
I was vaguely aware of Kirk. Saw him occasionally around Trump and he was on the jet to Greenland with Don Jr. At our men's breakfast Friday, a retired AF O-6 mentioned that two of his daughters were distraught over the assassination and much consoling was required. What I don't get is how so many Boomers and X knew and hated him due to their belief in the lies and slander. There is even a Army Reserve Major whose hatred was so intense that he would throw away his career from his social media posts.

They should have had a primary, but Doctor Jill (and Obama) outfoxed them until the California Clique mounted a coup. (Was Biden's letter announcing his decision not to run signed with an autopen???) For years I've been asking "Who is Jose Calvo Sotelo?" and I think we all agreed he was Trump. Turns out it was Charlie Kirk. Posted by: Ace-Endorsed Author A.H.

I look at it this way. Those who have a lot to lose yet still blow up their career and reputation have serious impulse control issues. In a deportation sense, this is the winnowing of the "worst of the worst". By any measure CK was a man among men, decent among the decent, and kind among the kind. The lies were so outrageous and contradictory to the well known persona and demonstrated life of CK that the "careful and more deliberate" don't necessarily have the personality to take at face value the lies that would lead their peers to murderous rage.

So when you see military people going on social media an acting like fools, understand that these people were pampered and promoted under both Biden and Obama, and they are typical Milley-esque blue falcon back-stabbing snakes. They screwed up paperwork on purpose, abused their authority, and loved every minute of it.
Now they think their highest calling is to undermine Trump because they have no sense of honor; they think betrayal is clever and lying is sophisticated.

You want to know what really killed Charlie Kirk?
What really killed Charlie Kirk was the shooter's easy access to a military-style, hyper-powered, fully manually-operated, automatic, long-range assault rifle. Posted by: Lefty Journalists at September 13, 2025 09:37 AM (Y1sOo) --- From what I heard, he was killed by the Fuddiest of Fudd guns: a sporterized Mauser 98 rechambered into 30-06 with cut down stock and scope. The kind of thing you can buy at a gun show for peanuts. And also a weapon legal in just about every country, including the UK. This is in stark contrast with Uvalde's shooter having a $2,000 rig he paid for by working part-time at Wendy's. Posted by: Ace-Endorsed Author A.H. Lloyd at September 13, 2025 09:40 AM (ZOv7s) 229

Please identify the Charlie Kirk in any of the 50 states legislatures, the US Congress or any governorship.
Posted by: Unknown Drip Under Pressure at September 13, 2025 09:38 AM (a4flb) --- Kirk was 31. Not a lot of 31-year-old senators or even congress critters. He's part of a different generation, completely different from the geriatrics who dominate the upper elected offices. There are probably quite a few state reps and senators who were (so to speak) created in his image, and have yet to emerge on the national scene. That is why Kirk was so impressive - and such a threat. Posted by: Ace-Endorsed Author A.H. Lloyd at September 13, 2025 09:43 AM (ZOv7s) 237

So when you see military people going on social media an acting like fools, understand that these people were pampered and promoted under both Biden and Obama, and they are typical Milley-esque blue falcon back-stabbing snakes. They screwed up paperwork on purpose, abused their authority, and loved every minute of it.
Now they think their highest calling is to undermine Trump because they have no sense of honor; they think betrayal is clever and lying is sophisticated. These are the ones who would have given the order to fire on peaceful demonstrators. Posted by: Ace-Endorsed Author A.H.

My guess is that people in government are just watching this thinking "ok just let them have their little protest to get it out of their system. They can't do anything to get us out of office, so this doesn't matter." In past eras, something like this would probably matter, because people in government would see potential for being voted out of office. But now, with elections fortified, I think things have changed. I guess what this does help to do is show others in the UK that they are not alone in their frustrations with the state of the UK.

Posted by: Skip at September 13, 2025 09:58 AM (j9CiB) --- With a decent scope, 200 yards is not that difficult, and I've seen speculation that the shooter was aiming for center mass and either missed or Kirk was wearing a vest and fragments hit him in the throat. Regardless, 30-06 is so much beefier than .556 that one need not have pin-point accuracy to obtain a lethal hit. And of course, AOC is now actually saying "Yes, we're coming for your hunting rifles!" because she's an utter twit. Posted by: Ace-Endorsed Author A.H.

Posted by: Anonosaurus Wrecks, Raging Like Godzilla! at September 13, 2025 10:12 AM (L/fGl) --- Do they elaborate on what those opinions are? See, this is why there's such a disconnect on the right.

Not to stir the generational warfare pot, but that is why Boomers are so out of sync with everyone else. One of my good friends is a Boomer, and he get it, but his two brothers are deep in denial. One is a West Pointer who despises Trump. There's no easy way to reach those people, and anyway, they are fading from the scene.

But he was just a stupid one who put it out in the open. What about the ones who are more careful and more deliberate?
Posted by: runner at September 13, 2025 09:11 AM This is something that I think has to be a major wake-up call for all conservatives after seeing the responses from all walks of life, all generations regarding the Charlie Kirk assassination. The fact that there are millions upon millions of people who are radicalized in their mindset now and cheer on and support the killing of conservatives. Over the last few days, we've seen social media posts from teachers, professors, healthcare workers, celebrities, law enforcement, people in all different corporations and businesses, people from colleges and universities, media and social media members, athletes, you name it, expressing not only their support of the Charlie Kirk assassination, but calling for more. And just like the "moderate" Muslims who don't commit terrorism, but silently support it, there are who knows how many millions more Americans who didn't make statements but support those who did. This is a major problem. Posted by: Clyde Shelton at September 13, 2025 10:21 AM (P5BPp) 305

Dear Grammie,
I've never met you, but seeing your comments over the years - especially from the front lines of WI during the Kyle Rittenhouse trial - have given me an incredible sense of joy, laughter, and practical teaching on how to live a Christian life. It was bad enough going through Charlie Kirk's passing this week, but seeing the entry from Annie's about your health update is breaking me yet further. I wanted to tell you how much your gray box entries have meant to me, while I still can. For some, like OM, I never had the chance, and that fills me with no small amount of sadness. I pray that God keeps you with us for longer, but if that is not His will, I know that you will be meeting up with Charlie before me. Please tell him that we miss him deeply when you do.

It is significant because the PEOPLE realize that they have the numbers. There are too many of them to arrest, and so a "Colour Revolution" is now a possibility - massive resistance across the country, making it ungovernable.
This is a nightmare to the Labour Party, which has dreamed of a successful National Strike for more than a century - and now it is staring them in the face. Posted by: Ace-Endorsed Author A.H. Lloyd at September 13, 2025 10:06 AM I'd like to think that, but it's one thing to show up to a protest where there are little to no consequences for doing so. It is quite another to participate in a national strike or a color revolution, where the consequences are much, much higher. People here in the US participated in a lot of "protests" during COVID, but when it came to actually risking their jobs and livelihoods by refusing to mask up or refusing to remain at home during lockdowns, that was another story. I can think of only a few instances -- the New Jersey gym who stayed open while getting fined, the Michigan barber who was made an example of by Whitmer. I hope you're right that this is the start of revolution in the UK, but I am skeptical. We'll see. Posted by: Clyde Shelton at September 13, 2025 10:28 AM (P5BPp) 327

It's not enough to go after individuals, either. Discord and Twitch need multi-billion dollar lawsuits for sponsoring terrorism and their CEOs put under arrest for facilitating criminal conspiracies.
Incitement to murder has never been protected speech and both platforms have shown they can and will censor content they feel is inappropriate, so there is no wiggle room here. Posted by: Ace-Endorsed Author A.H. Lloyd at September 13, 2025 10:20 AM Watching Friday Night Tights last night, they showed a number of Twitch "influencers" who were very detailed in their call for murder of conservatives. And these were live streams that have been going on for at least a year now. People with hundreds of thousands of followers. FNT also talked about how a few of these leftist streamers had some sense and spoke out against the assassination, but then you check their followers in their chats and they are calling out the streamers for not sticking to radical views. Scary shit. We always talk about the "silent majority". There is also a "silent" group of millions across the country with these dangerous, radical views.

It is Left vs Right. The Left knows no age boundaries, no class boundaries, no race boundaries diaries. The Left is old, young, black, white, rich and poor. They are oligarchs and commmunists. They are angry and jealous. Conservatives are the same covering every demographic but we are sane, optimistic, patriotic,normal, loving. The total opposite,of the Left.

I think the main difference in the generations is where do you get your news? If, like a lot of older people, you’re still watching television for the “news” you are still being indoctrinated by the Left and the Deep State. I am a late Boomer, but never felt a part of the Age of Aquarius. I don’t watch TV for news and haven’t for decades. I have found my own sources for news at independent web sites like AOS. I resent being told what I think or what I am like. I am the individual that God made and my experiences shaped. You don’t know me: don’t lump me with others you also don’t know.

Boomers were the last generation to be drafted. The vast majority of them went to Nam when ordered, without protest because they thought they were fighting for their country.
They came home to a nation of Gen Xers who spit in their faces and called them baby killers. Many suffered from exposure to Agent Orange, and still more from PTSD. But they moved on. They married, had families, and worked two, maybe three jobs in order to afford their 18% mortgage. Many, if not most, succeeded and built wonderful lives. But now the generations that follow despise them. They blame them for all their own shortcomings. They can't afford a home! --Neither could we. We worked OT, two jobs. Menial jobs. They can't get a good job! - We worked our way up the ladder and were smart enough not major in gender studies or French Lit. So do me a favor and sit down and shut up. Sick of it.

Kirk's very successful challenge to DEI made an army of those who benefit DEI very , very , very mad. They framed it as "racism", or anti-this or that, as they do everything that rattles their cage. But it was nothing of the sort, it was a challenge to the system that promotes the lowest common denominator instead of merit.

I found this prayer on the internet on 9/11. It is by Father Mychal Judge who was a Franciscan priest. He died after being hit by falling debris after giving someone last rites at the World Trade Center. Many people recall the picture of him being carried out on that day. He was a chaplain to the NYC fire dept. he said this prayer every day apparently:

Boomers were the last generation to be drafted. The vast majority of them went to Nam when ordered, without protest because they thought they were fighting for their country.
They came home to a nation of Gen Xers who spit in their faces and called them baby killers. Many suffered from exposure to Agent Orange, and still more from PTSD. Posted by: IrishEi at September 13, 2025 10:44 AM I don't think Gen-X-ers were spitting on Vietnam war veterans. Gen-X is from 1964 to 1980. So Gen-X-ers would have been 9-11 years old when US soldiers were returning from Vietnam 1973-1975. If those Gen-X children were spitting on soldiers, it was likely at the direction of their Silent generation (1928-1945) parents. Posted by: Clyde Shelton at September 13, 2025 10:57 AM (P5BPp) 403

There is a lot of truth in the hippies bringing their Marxist ideology into the classroom and other venues. The youngsters having built in suspicion of their intents and broad brushing an OK Boomer on what might often be more Marxist garbage is good.

Also in line with the prayer thread, Shad M. Brooks (of Friday Night Tights) thoughts (with supporting scriptures) on how God is using Charlie's life and death:
X: https://bit.ly/4piR8VY "I believe that by God suffering an evil man to Kill Charlie, God has used his death to change hearts and to fulfil his plans for us. For Charlie had completed the work God wanted him to do, and part of his work was to become the martyr he now is. It is not the first time God has had good men die for him, and it won't be the last. Charlie Kirk's death might mean more for changing hearts than his later life could have, for we don’t know how long his life was destined to be. His future could have been faced with disease, or death by personal injury. He might have been destined to die in a car crash for all we know. But what I do know, is that God has made his death mean more than what his later life was destined for." Posted by: Clyde Shelton at September 13, 2025 11:13 AM (P5BPp) 440
I confess to almighty God and to you, my brothers and sisters, that I have greatly sinned, in my thoughts and in my words, in what I have done and what I have failed to do, through my fault, through my fault, through my most grievous fault; therefore I ask blessed Mary ever-Virgin, and all the Angels and Saints, and you, my brothers and sisters, to pray for me to the Lord our God.

It created a generation of ruthless, merciless and mindless killers who gleefully slaughtered 20 million people
I remember when that number was 250 million people. I guess it has suffered the same ideological revisionism like there only being "10 million illegal aliens" in this country for all of the fast fifty years.

That statement makes absolutely no sense. Since God is in control, it is clear the "destiny" was to die at 31. There is no such thing as an alternate/hypothetical destiny. Posted by: Unknown Drip Under Pressure at September 13, 2025 11:16 AM (a4flb) 445

Much of the vitriol directed at Boomers (I am a very late boomer) is pure, unadulterated jealousy.
Because the facts are quite different than the lazy suppositions made by people who are reflexively critical of Boomers. We paid into SS and Medicare for 40+ years. We suffered through the financial malaise of the 1970s and early 1980s (and the dotcom bubble and the recession of 2008+). We managed the ups and downs of the economy without whining like little bitches about being owed a universal basic income. We went to work five days a week! You don't like our success? Tough shit. Make your own success, and stop blaming others for your sloth and weakness. Posted by: CharlieBrown'sDildo [Flying the American Flag!] at September 13, 2025 11:17 AM (n9ltV) 448
Identity politics you say ? Marxists love identity politics. They even create identities to instill their "wisom", doncha know.
Posted by: runner --------------- Categorizing cultural generations alphabetically is the genesis of advertisers and has been adopted by the left to divide Americans as people. Accepting the concept, adopting their language is submission to their disruption. There are good people and there are bad people, there are smart people and there are dumb people of all ages.

...Sorry to derail the thread. Posted by: Ace-Endorsed Author A.H. Lloyd at September 13, 2025 11:13 AM (ZOv7s) Not a derail. We can all use extra blessings right now. Not exactly a prayer, but wincing in sympathy for the organizers of the (outdoor) beer and wine festival just down the street. The first real rain we've had in many weeks is pounding down right now, and I can just imagine the 'Are you ***kidding*** me? 's down there right now.

Thank you.
Posted by: rickb223 Saw your post from last night, as well. My wife passed away on Aug. 18. While it wasn't a sudden death, it wasn't expected, either. Just went into the hospital with suspected pneumonia (it wasn't pneumonia) and never came home. I know what you are going through. One day at a time...

I think in many ways Charlie was like Rush. They went after Limbaugh, called him racist, antisemite , everything. First time I listened to Rush was precisely, because I've heard negative things about this guy Rush Limbaugh on the radio. So I though, what is he saying, I need to hear for myself. And the rest is history. Rush always said, ask your liberal friend (or whoever ) to listen to my show for 30 minutes. Just give me 30 minutes.

There are a lot of videos of Charlie calmly arguing with those with opposing views.
X algorithms have decided that I need to be exposed to Charlie Kirk hate. One heavily edited video began with three young people physically fighting over who gets to sit in the chair to debate CK. The dickhead that prevailed by elbowing some girl, and shoving her away tried to make the argument that XY Chromosomes do not make a person male. His primary argument is that Christians call God "The Father", and thus God is expressed as a man even though He doesn't have XY chromosomes. CK didn't know how to respond to such tortured absurdity so the young creep shouted out that he 0wned CK and beat him in a debate. (because of editing I have no idea how the exchange really happened/ended) This is the lunacy that CK had to deal with.

As a Boomer, I know lots of this hate directed at my generation has nothing to do with me.
That said, maybe some hatred of Boomers is necessary because the young generation thinks "Boomer" is anyone over 50 regardless of what the marketing demographers want us to believe. Posted by: Unknown Drip Under Pressure at September 13, 2025 11:11 AM It's ironic that the "Ok, Boomer" phrase became popular and spread on social media. When most of the people who created the internet, cell phones, video games, desktop computers, laptops, iPhones, music players, etc. were from the Boomer generation or before. Steve Jobs (1955 - Boomer) There's also the Presidential candidate the younger generation all seemed to go for back in 2008: Barack Obama (1961 - Boomer) Posted by: Clyde Shelton at September 13, 2025 11:23 AM (P5BPp) 457
*I was not a liberal, never was, just never heard of Limbaugh, was younger than the average age of his listeners I guess.

434 The bedrock of Mao's cultural revolution was to blame the problems of the current entirely on the older generations and older customs. It created a generation of ruthless, merciless and mindless killers who gleefully slaughtered 20 million people to help create the wonder of modern China, a totalitarian nightmare.
There's a difference between reading and understanding. Posted by: JackStraw at September 13, 2025 11:09 AM (viF8m) I always thought and continue to believe Mao's own megalomania was the cause of all China's problems. Posted by: Eromero at September 13, 2025 11:28 AM (LHPAg) 460

NR Pax requests prayers for his father, who was diagnosed with Parkinson’s on 8/20.
8/30 Update – Dad was in the ER all Tuesday night after taking a tumble. He is on medication for Parkinson’s so now it’s a matter of seeing how much that helps. They help a lot. From barely shuffling across a room hanging onto everything to just walking semi-normal in 1/2 hour. Exercise helps. A local support group helps. Seeing others in the same situation is good and scary at the same time. Posted by: DaveA at September 13, 2025 11:33 AM (PMJuY) 462
