My suggestion is that the political discussion board be for elite members only.

I find it interesting you make this recommendation when you aren't Elite. Is that your way to ensure you never see it? LOL

I propose the political forum be for members who meet a certain level of sophistication, dress code and net worth.

Moderated political discussions on how policy impacts the market, I'm OK with. General discussions of politics, I'm not.

Will it be compulsory to enter into the discussions? I presume not.

So, why would anyone (like me, who has no interest in discussing politics on here) have a problem with those who do - if those things are in their own category/thread?

If anything, having its own sandpit, might prevent those topics from creeping into other, non-political threads.

If we value our rights and freedom, vigilance requires that we speak up. With authoritarian (corporate / government) fascism manifesting itself in America, markets are being adversely affected. I have plenty of "hate speech" that has built up with journalism's morphing into DP propaganda, and the "big brother"rules which now guide the legacy (formerly valid) news outlets. (The feminized millennials at Yahoo Finance has silenced our voice, which would otherwise call their propaganda into account.) Political correctness is destroying us. PATRIOTISM has become a dirty word. Feminization of males is in full swing -just listen to all the parroting about "civility." Man up. Real men speak their minds when wrong is upon us. But they do it with focus and mitigate the temptation to give way to "steam."

I'm amazed that this is not obvious to most.

US is crisis-racked with armed militias groups roaming its ethnically polarized restless interior

The division that are now so polarized in America that they will eventually tear the country apart.

Hopefully, you'll one day reach a level of enlightenment whereby you simply won't give af if people believe you.

Or simply, just don't waste time on it and move on with life and trade with peaceful mind

Or simply enjoy the fact that when you have died, it wont matter what happens to a once great American Nation.
