I want to open a store in Hong Kong.

Well I will say I can identify with your sentiments, and it's sad the complete lack of patience and respect for differing opinions.
I wouldn't criticize that as being political, it's the effects of human behavior.

Landmark Forum discusses this behavior for example:

In the Already Always Listening segment, we visit the notion that while we think of ourselves as open-minded and objective, in fact our approach to ourselves, our circumstances, and others is often filtered and even obscured by pre-existing notions and ideas – by our upbringing, our values, our past experiences.

In this session, we see those filters for what they are – an all-pervasive influence that profoundly colors our relationships with people, circumstances, and even ourselves. An awareness of these filters, and a recognition of the striking limits that they impose, allows for a refreshing freedom. People, situations, and our approach to life alter dramatically.

You're covering psychology territory, that would be my assessment.

«Small intelligence discriminates, greater intelligence encompasses» - traditional saying

It is useless to argue by opposing points of view, it is useful to integrate the different points of view in a larger perspective ....

It is where good faith and common values play a decisive role,
The loss of common values is the tragedy of our time ...

My grain of salt....

Good story nonoise,  keep telling yourself that.  This is exactly what is happening in this country today and when people try to attempt to bring any type of decision, it is met with artificial comments, bashing, insults and disrespect.  I do not put out bs, only facts and you are completely welcomed to disagree.  Since this pandemic i have never stopped working and come in contact with many people.  I always talk openly with others and listen to their experiences.  I do not base my knowledge on cnn or fox, I think the media as a whole has their own agenda.  95 percent of what I say is from what I see on my interaction with the public.  5 percent is tv, the truck driver was from the news, I followed up with internet research and then called a friend of mine who lives in the area to confirm.  Maybe I'm not all there for listening to what others are experiencing.   I guess I could just watch the media for all the facts. Lol.  I guess I am talking about it.  Nothing states I am blocking anyone from their own personal opinions.  I will sit here and wait patiently for your next insult.

this thread should be euthanized

pcc67, I think Parlor would be a great place for you to spew conspiracy theories of weaponizing a virus, population control, one media's take on why it was people were jumping on a truck and ascribing it to others.
Just not here, an audio site of all places. 

For someone who likes to bring up his political takes on subjects and then direct others not to, and then relents and plays the victim card, sounds, well, typical.

All the best,
Nonoise
