Might be a great excuse to visit Denmark... I hear it's wonderful there.

The papers we hold up and say "this will be the foundation of our government, society, and economy" can say anything we want, but none of the words on the page matter once the people in the system abdicate their responsibilities to point at something wrong, refuse to participate, and work against it.

SOX controls are the result of the Enron fraud, but those are also just words on a page. The US Constitution is just words on a page. SCOTUS may very well rule this year that the US government cannot deport native-born, tax-paying, passport-holding, lived-here-all-their-lives US citizens.

Watch as the Trump administration does it anyway. It's all just words to them.

The Baltics catching strays: "and I took that personally"

Yeah they were never learned to begin with.

Wow... That's quite the journey. Thank you for sharing it.

It's particularly enlightening is that the diversity of information presented to you is what helped you change. Not just one "gotcha" quote from some online commenter, one snippy remark about a noticeable hypocrisy. Not one source of disruption, but many. I think that's fascinating, and extremely helpful for those of us with family who only get their news and opinions and politics from one place.

Again, thanks for telling your story.

They'll willingly catch leprosy if Trump told them to.

I know, I didn't mean to sounds argumentative with you. You presented the facts clearly for the OP who asked their question. :)
