This isn’t a conservative point of view (no land right, individual right, or political right being favored). This isn’t an anti-feminist point of view. Heck, this isn’t against LGBTQA either.

In extreme cases such as where adrenaline takes over or where we have a brain freeze moment, the algorithm may reverse itself. The only two other true facts […]
George Washington had 100’s of human slaves. Blacks that were part of his property. Yet, he is one of the most renowned libertarians of all time. Yet, he is one of the founding fathers of the place we know as United States of America. Here, locally in India, I used to jump traffic lights when […]
