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 evolving
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 feel like the mood has shifted after Trump announced JD Vance. I've been seeing posts on how this guy said he preferred Hillary to Trump, comparing him to Hitler. What's going on? I know everything is not as it seemed and I'd like to have faith that all things work out in accordance to God's plan.
Your best follower are the ones who hated you dearly and then did the research and learnt the truth about you, and then became your supporters. JD Vance is one of them. There are many threads discussing many aspects of this, lot of good info on the board right now.
Yeah, he said some pretty terrible things in the past, but then he seems to have come around. Gone from straight up TDS, to MAGA. It does happen, so maybe. It's sus, I know. One of the frogs here posted something encouraging last night. He said that by JD telling his story of going from Trump hater to lover, it might open some eyes. I sure hope so!
As a history nerd, George HW Bush said Reaganomics was BS until he got the VP slot, just as LBJ did with JFK.
Yes. Voodoo economics, I read.
