Welcome to General Chat - GAW Community Area
This General Chat area started off as a place for people to talk about things that are off topic, however it has quickly evolved into a community and has become an integral part of the GAW experience for many of us.
Based on its evolving needs and plenty of user feedback, we are trying to bring some order and institute some rules. Please make sure you read these rules and participate in the spirit of this community.
Rules for General Chat
-
Be respectful to each other. This is of utmost importance, and comments may be removed if deemed not respectful.
-
Avoid long drawn out arguments. This should be a place to relax, not to waste your time needlessly.
-
Personal anecdotes, puzzles, cute pics/clips - everything welcome
-
Please do not spam at the top level. If you have a lot to post each day, try and post them all together in one top level comment
-
Try keep things light. If you are bringing in deep stuff, try not to go overboard.
-
Things that are clearly on-topic for this board should be posted as a separate post and not here (except if you are new and still getting the feel of this place)
-
If you find people violating these rules, deport them rather than start a argument here.
-
Feel free to give feedback as these rules are expected to keep evoloving
In short, imagine this thread to be a local community hall where we all gather and chat daily. Please be respectful to others in the same way
I'm not sure when this started all my life my generation and forward have been brainwashed into hating or disliking and fearing the Middle Eastern people. I can agree there's bad people or groups there that hate Americans and Christians. So what there's bad evil groups everywhere! Just because a region has a different religion doesn't mean they are bad people and don't have morals.
I found this account on YouTube when searching preserving fresh tomatoes. This family lives in Azerbaijani and they live off the land most likely the way their ancestors have since the beginning of time. People like this will survive when the world goes dark or worse. As modern people we have been brainwashed into believing modern technology is far better than the alternative.
I'm enjoying watching them and hoping to learn a little to incorporate into my life. The older I get the more I realize simplicity is better.

I remember as a kid and and even to this day seeing Middle East burning our flags and chanting death to America. Now that I am awake, I am understanding their hatred of our government. America has no business running another country. Greed has caused so many lives to be lost unnecessarily.
Amen! It's about the money and ruling. I've been watching Domina series. Her second husband Caesar Augustus "Octavius" wanted to be a God instead of just ruler. They both wanted power and got it. I'd like to learn more about the Romans. For the life of me I can't understand wanting that much power. Seems like all the power hungry people have a screw loose and evil in their hearts.
