Few minutes ago, one of our analytical contributors deleted his account. Don't know what happened, but hope he will remember: he, his insights into frequencies and symbols, were a true gift to this community.
Until we meet again!

Ordinarily I would concur. But the last time I exhibited even a scintilla of critical thinking and questioned a “popular opinion” I got banned for 3 days and called a Doomer. So I won’t do that again.
It is getting ridiculous. :(
Well stated and I agree. There is a narrative here and those that are not rah-rah with that narrative are attacked into silence, or worse yet, causing them to leave altogether. I worry that this internal censorship is having a deleterious effect on what was intended to be intelligent dialog based upon critical analysis and exchange of ideas in order to make sense out of the world and attempt to map out strategies for our future. The discussions here at times are no different than those that occur in the broader culture - thin skinned, shallow, and at times, meanspirited. This dog is about ready to run away, but I continue to stay in order to lend my expertise where I can contribute for the benefit of all. Part of me refuses to allow the naysayers to run me off. Good day fren and thanks for your thoughts.
Preach on brother/sister.
Lately this board has been too quick to bandwagon the latest thing without any digging or proof that the latest thing is solid and not just another half baked exaggeration that we wish were 100% true. I've been guilty of jumping in myself but I'm trying to resist.
Bongino rule.
And that's why I dislike socially taboo labels. The left use it to try and keep us in line, but our side does the same thing.
"Doomer" is BS, and always has been. Just like every label, it is way too widely applied for everything.
It's always amusing to be called a doomer by someone who has like 2000 imaginary engagement points on a ~140 day old account too.
Sadly we have our own snowflakes that are triggered by anything that attacks their paradigm. They have labeled it dooming. I miss VOAT.
Sometimes these are the same ones recommending the poster take a break when it comes off to someone just popping into the thread as being just the opposite. The one needing to take week off is not who they think it might be.
Eggshells are getting harder to walk on.
Ordinarily I would reply with my story of getting banned for calling Trumps Big Announcement a few weeks back a Nothingburger and that it was just gonna be his 2024 announcement run.
Then I would tell you about how I was told I was a Doomer, didn’t do my research, couldn’t point to facts to back up my statement and that I didn’t understand “THE COMMS” from his speeches and I was banned for a day…
Then I would tell you how I, with a level head asked why they automatically call any sort of critical thinking “dooming” to which they called me a deep state cabal and a Doomer THEN upped my ban to 3 days…
Of course two days later when my prediction of Trumps announcement being his 2024 announcement (thus vindicating me) I am, of course, unable to re-engage the Mod to discuss the ban.
So basically I got banned for not slinging hopium like everyone else. Which is very 1984-ish and smacks of Pre-Elon Twitter censoring on a platform supposedly fighting for free speech and the American way…
Now, as I said…
Ordinarily I would’ve told this story but the last time I ‘misunderstood’ the “COMMS” and made a prediction I got 3 day ban and called a Doomer Deep State Cabal troll.
So won’t do that again!
