Mick I have no idea what you are talking about.

FYI, My fathers family were poor white southerners, great great grandfather and his son were hog farmers. My mothers family poor white notherners who suffered the depression, and left the family traumatized.

I was raised a conservative and voted for Nixon in 1960, an Goldwater in 1968, but voted for Hillary and Biden.

A piece of advice don't take things personally, don't personalize the impersonal.

As regards brainwashing, that is how we are raised,family friends, authorities like teachers.

We are not born with out ideas and beliefs fully formed. We either acquire them by being told them by authority or we aquire them by fully thinking them through

My comment was meant for the guy who forgot to mention that his post was facetious. It sounded serious, so I called him on it. These threads kind of weave all over the place and it is hard to know where they end up sometimes.
