Will this forum remain Politics-free?

[theshadowknows]

I was NOT calling the moderators of ATS, particularly those who moderated all subjects politic, lazy by any means!  Quite the contrary.  I thought they did a spectacular job overall.  And, their efforts were greatly appreciated by myself and others!  That was not the intent of my statement at all!  I am acutely aware of how difficult their job was.

What I am saying is that refusing to allow political discussion is lazy.  Different statement.  Different forum.  Same theme.

Ah so I'm lazy? lol. Just trying to clarify. The rest of the staff agrees with me about the politics though. It's been much more peaceful here. The tone is calmer, and we're back to talking about UFOs and the topics that shaped the beginnings of ATS.

I often think of Carl Sagan's quote about the Pale Blue Dot, and it becomes so abundantly apparent how insignificant things like political bickering are when we should all be thinking in terms of humanity. The leaders of the world want us fighting each other, not them, and they're on their way to destroying the planet. I'm not playing into that game. I don't want this website to be another little microcosm feeding from their system of propaganda. 

We are all one.
