@bud_t@m.ai6yr.org @kb6nu@mastodon.radio Honestly it's hard to ham when people are actively attempting to strip away my voting rights. My membership in ARRL is strategic--discounts on instructional materials, awards, etc. I have no illusions about an organization that was founded by the son of a Knighted person whose claim to fame was inventing a gun used to #genocide #Africans. Included into what? Diversify into what?

The #masotodon app on #ios seems to be very slow to load. Is anyone else having this problem?

@bud_t@m.ai6yr.org @kb6nu@mastodon.radio I don't engage in these debates because I've nothing to gain and everything to lose. For some, this is a pure intellectual exercise. For me, this is about survival. My Bride and I are talking about seeking asylum from the land of our birth😢 , because, as the poem Home
by Warsan Shire says, "no one leaves home unless
home is the mouth of a shark"

@bud_t@m.ai6yr.org @kb6nu@mastodon.radio When I was a substitute teacher years ago the unwritten rule was to "stay out of the teacher's lounge." I think a similar rule would apply to reading the comments section. 🤣

@KJ7OMO@mastodon.radio You know there are a few known #lid frequencies.
20m: 14.313 MHz, and 14.275 MHz
40m: 7.200 MHz
80m: 3.910 MHz
Looks like you were close to one. These are the frequencies where the #sadhams get their #racist, #sexist, #hateful rocks off. Of course, the cowards won't ID and the #FCC has done nothing as far as enforcement.

@courtcan we’re silent because we have had to tend to our family and friends who have been wounded and cast adrift by this #facsist regime. Try to hold onto our physical health and sanity in this crazymaking milieu. We are in the mouth of a shark as #WarsanShire says in her poem Home.

@KJ7OMO@mastodon.radio We shouldn't have to accommodate these #lids by avoiding "their" frequencies, but as you said 'tis what it is.

"We are in the most dangerous days of our lifetimes, days pregnant with an escalating World War and the very real possibility that a severely mentally-incapacitated American president, along with an equally dangerous Israeli prime minister, both cornered as never before, may escalate to #nuclear weapons!"

@Strandjunker@mstdn.social remember there are two parts to their #superpower. 1. Lying. 2. getting away with it. To stop them, you have to make lying and incompetence costly. It has to be too hard--erm, expensive--for them to just walk away. Remember, they see us, all of us, as prey--including our representatives. recommend applying consequences.

@Strandjunker@mstdn.social I'm reminded of #trumpliesmatter swaying back and forth near a podium he was supposed to be speaking at during the campaign. He knew he was going to win. He knew there would be no consequences for his lack of competence and evil--only rewards.
