The violence and constant infighting we see portrayed on TV and on social media are really just propagated by TPTB and continually used to divide us. I know of no one in my community or other areas I've spent time in that actually spend their energy and resources into furthering division themselves. It's all driven by evil media and above.

What has TPTB done to encourage family values and community? Nothing, in fact they're done the opposite- families constantly torn apart, communities thrown into violence because of lack of proper actual policing and law and order, minority areas in disrepair leading kids to criminality, etc. I'm not even talking about two parents from the same gender, a lot of people may disagree but they're both capable of raising a kid-- I'm talking about the fathers AND MOTHERS that leave their kids or WORSE, stay with their kids and do drugs, abuse alcohol, and give their kids a terrible upbringing. What has TPTB done to fix that.

I just came back from a resort in Mexico. On two separate occasions the table next to me were discussing politics, both discussions on extreme opposite ends of the spectrum. Did I get up and throw punches? Get into a screaming match with someone I disagreed with? No. I kept to myself and think, this is the correct way to react as a community member. It's not starting witch hunts on the opposite party, it's not shunning people you disagree with, it's not letting this stuff run your life.

It's caring for your loved ones and your neighbors. It's respect. It's love. It's understanding disagreeing beliefs. Yada yada.

I know you're a man of scripture boxcar, Isn't that the bigger message from Jesus and the bible rather than homosexuality being a sin etc etc....

May I ask where?

And what’s TPTB?
