This NAFTA replacement seems to be a great deal for North America, Canada and Mexico. Good job President Trump. #politics
So a lost recording of John McCain has been found in which he denounces America for the war in Vietnam and praises the Vietnamese for his treatment. He was treated as a hero and accepted the silver star, an award he did not deserve. He deserted his fellow P.O.Ws #politics

The Left destroyed the lives of two families, Dr. Christine Ford's and Brett Kavanaugh. Neither family will be able to continue there lives without being taunted and abused in public. Are these the people you want to run your country,? #politics

No doubt the conservatives know the importance of the Kavanaugh win, but let's not pretend that the left doesn't have an agenda here or an alterea motive, and it's not about protecting woman's rights. That is a fake narrative to get women onboard. #politics.

If the liberals cared about women's rights, they would support these accusers even though they have lost their fight. My guess is that they won't. They pushed Ford forward knowing that she didn't know the time, date or place of the alleged assault. They abused her. #politics

As an Englishman, you could say I am an outsider, literally. Dr. Christine Ford will no doubt go home alone. Now that all the media frenzy is over, I doubt she will hear anymore from her new found liberal friends. Neither will the other accusers. #politics.
The Dems reputation is now in tatters after they betray Dr. Ford, going against her wishes to remain anonymous. Now her reputation is in tatters also as Kavanaugh is exonorated. The left has hung themselves with their own rope. Disgraceful. #politics

This Kavanaugh debacle has wrecked the Dems reputation for ever. Even their own people are disgusted. The woman clearly has issues and they couldn't care less about her as long as they get what they want. They have ruined two families lives. Bad for them in the midterms and 2020.

Dr. Ford should lose all of her Gofundme money if Brett Kavanaugh is proved innocent.
Twitter uses go full retard on Lyndsey Graham over him backing Brett Kavanaugh at the hearing. These freaks actually think he is in the wrong. Stunning! #politics
We've known for nearly 30 years the difference between fats. You are what you eat. Everything in moderation. Exercise is what people forget. We are products of our environment. A scientific theory is different from a regular theory. Scientific theory is different to hypothesis.

Until the potential employers asks for your legal name, age and gender on their standard form. The best recruitment processes are race, gender and age blind at point of entry.
Try this test. Ask a white person, man or woman. If they were on a bus with 4 empty seats, one next to a black man the other 3 next to white males, who would they choose to sit next to? Now ask the same question to a black man or woman. Their answer will reflect their environment

You can't have a white name, just the same as you can't have a black name. For instance, My name is David and I am white English born and bred. I am guessing the name originated from Israel. I could also change my name to Samuel L. Jackson. Doesn't change the colour of my skin.

Charlotte, like many other girls names, can and often is, shortened to Charlie. Georgina to George etc. It would make it almost impossible for an employer to tell the sex by a letter unless the person puts, Mr, Mrs, or Miss before the name. Most people put the first character.

By that logic, there is also no such thing as “boys” and “girls” names
By the way, the name Noah is Hebrew. It is also a known girl's name.

It's not logic, it's fact. My surname is Guidotti, yet I have been to Italy and don't remotely look Italian. I am white English. You can change your name to anything you want, boy or girl. Boys and girls have shared names. Like Micheal, Jesse, Alex, Adrian. Flawed logic by you.

This white privilege narrative has to stop. It has to be nipped in the bud before it grows into something that cannot be contained. It is nonsense that is divisive as much as it is manufactured.

Knowledge is free. Knowledge is power. Dangerous to the heirarchical structure, weilding power of knowledge. In the information age, fearlessly learning - The iron is hot, strike powerful knowledge, Posterity will appreciate. The subservient will never be allowed to know truth.
To stay silent, to not speak out against people who would do wrong to you or others, is a negative. To uphold the beliefs of these people and to obstruct those who speak out makes you an enemy of justice.

Yet, lots to improve in cryptocurrency space. I hope that fully decentralised and open source platforms will emerge. Huge disadvantages of ETH smart contracts are centralised interfaces, allowing owners to manipulate.
@kr3 It seems that decentralisation does not live up to it's original intent. Especially when the front end is manipulated to serve a hidden agenda. It is only as good as it's weakest link.

I think kittens should be minimised because they kill birds, which hurts my feelings, and I might cry if I see a post about them. By the way, posts are super easy to ignore because they are hidden behind a veil.

The censor is super easy to look past by clicking the “show” button. There’s probably gonna be a feature one day where you can look at political posts by default. Peepeth is lucky to be able to experiment with features like this, a lot of other platforms couldn’t (unprofitable.)
Hiding posts behind a veil is the equivalent of parking a bus in front of a billboard.

While I'm sure you have spoken to those who do not want the current tagging process, it would be incorrect for you to state "not what most people want" unless you have surveyed more than 1/2 of the 2944 users of Peepeth.
I'm about opening doors to debate, not closing them off. They will target crypo next and probably any conversation that involves the legalization of weed. Freedom is taken away like a dripping tap. If you don't nip it in the bud, you will lose it forever.
Replying to @rdbilly (0xcddb6f18e8228598f4e241a0514e294b68f8b9f9)
It also means that every other reply after the tag is imposed is hidden, even if the topic steers away from politics and even if you didn't tag it yourself. Not cool and not what most people want.
You generally get the default reply almost like they copy and paste them. I have spoken to the founder. His name is Bevan. What most people don't realise is, they won't stop at censoring politics. They will target cryptocurrency and other so called controversial topics.

Yes, I should have worded that differently. I was letting my human emotions get the better of me. I have noticed that the Peepeth log in Statement has changed since I pointed out that Peepeth was not uncesorable. Not sure if that is a coincidence or not. :)

@Bevan You moved the goal posts from what you said in the beginning. You need to change the statement on your sign in page. It is misleading . This is not an uncencorable platform. It pushes for censorship on political posts and if it's not self censored, we are nannyed to do so.

If someone does not speak out against the push for censorship ON ANY PLATFORM, we will lose everything. This is not about turning away and finding alternatives to platforms we don't like. It's about taking a stand against anyone who would try to take away our legal right.
