    I'm gonna stop you right there. We don't know who shot him. You have no idead if a "leftist" shot him. Trump was shot by conservatives, not leftists. Objectively wrong. He spread hate and incited violence non-stop. Educate yourself before posting. Cute conspiracy. So instead of going for Trump...

    First of all: I'm not celebrating his death. Secondly, some context: He was actively advocating for the violent eradication of trans individuals. He was instrumental in securing Trump's win in 2024 and was thanked multiple times by Trump himself. He was working with various high profile...

    No idea about "more knowledgeable", but it is a topic I'm passionate about, which can result in heated posts. I'm sorry if I came across as too hostile. Know that I don't have anything against you personally and I'm also not claiming you're in support of Trump or anything like that. I'm just...

    Being hopeful can result in getting hurt. When Biden won in 2020 I was hopeful that some of Trump's actions could be undone (reading the posts from back then in this thread is bleak nowadays). I hoped that Harris, despite not being a great candidate, would win and that over the years some things...

    Just to make sure I'm not misunderstanding your question: Wish = better informed voters Process = descent into fascism correct? Unfortunately no, I don't think we are able to change things in time. We are in the middle of this. People are refusing to learn from past mistakes and are seemingly...

    Also to keep things in perspective about why I said blaming the left for certain voter behavior is disingenuous: Last year, after Biden dropped out, we had a member here who expressed that he wasn't really interested in politics. A regulr guy who just wanted to grill, have a BBQ in his backyard...

    I never said only the other side has morons. "My side" has plenty of them. In fact, the average voter, regardless of political affiliation, is largely uninformed and ignorant. No need to assume my positions or put words in my mouth; I'm more than happy to elaborate on my positions ;) And no...

    The right is just as guilty of name calling. Not sure about the UK in particular, but both in Germany and the US conservatives are calling left wingers "groomers", pedophiles, degenerates and similar things on a daily basis. Funnily enough the majority of cases of convicted child sexual abusers...

    I'd tell anyone who entertains voting Reform the same I'd say to AFD voters or other far right parties: Voting for fascists will not solve any of the issues you care about. There's a reason why those parties offer simple solutions to incredibly complex issues, and why they laser focus on...

    It's this. That was a very easy question to answer. Glad we could help!

    Album Cover Art Cup <<WINNER: Bell Witch - Mirror Reaper >>

    I used to have the Alive In Athens cover as my profile image on MSN back when I was a teenager. Always loved the artwork, but my disappointment with Jon has soured my opinion to such a degree that I can't look at it anymore.

    I just wanna remind everyone, that Trump is a convicted sexual abuser: https://www.reuters.com/legal/government/trump-fails-overturn-e-jean-carrolls-83-million-verdict-2025-09-08/ And he's definitely a pedophile molesting children...

    [...] 13. Piece Of Mind 14. The Number Of The Beast 15. The Final Frontier 16. Iron Maiden 17. Killers To explain a bit: For the most part I think Maiden got better and better in the 80s from album to album. Almost every record being better than its predecessor, with SSOASS being one of their...

    Seriously, that sounded so much better than the last couple of Maiden's live releases. Also, much better than most pro-shot releases from festivals.

    1. Virtual XI I've made no secret about my love for this album. Yeah, I'm aware of its shortcomings. How couldn't I be? It all everyone talks about with regards to it. Nicko's performance is woefully uninspired. The production is weak. A few edits here and there could've been quite effective...

    Crowd participation

    Mine is the "whooah" part towards the end of Dream Of Mirrors in the Rock In Rio version. Highlight of the entire show and probably the main reason why that song became one of my favorites. You have literal minutes of suspense and energy being built, released at that moment.
