This is your friendly reminder that the forum guidelines are real simple. KEEP POSTS RESPECTFUL!!!!  We will be paying a closer eye on the forum from here on out to ensure Radio Paradise is not used as a platform for hate, there are enough places on the internet for that. If that's your jam, find some of those gutters to play in. Radio Paradise is a community of music lovers. Keep it civil and for f**k sake, keep it kind! 

For reference here are the forum guidelines. 
  • Everything posted should be appropriate for all ages. The Internet is full of adults-only hangouts. We don't see any reason to have RP be one of them.
  • Please refrain from using racist, violent, or sexual imagery in avatars & forum pictures. A good guideline is that if it's something that you wouldn't want your kid or your boss to see while looking over your shoulder, then it doesn't belong here. We reserve the right to edit or delete any post or avatar without notice.
  • Play nice. While hearty debates are big fun, bashing people with differing views is not.
  • Cyberstalking or harassing fellow members in any way will not be tolerated. Anyone who feels like the victim of such activity should contact us immediately.
  • Please refrain from the excessive use of profanity.
  • Please don't post links to warez, filesharing, or porn sites.
  • Discussion of actual pork products is permitted, spamming the forums is not. It's OK to mention products or services - including other radio stations - but that should not be the only reason for the post.
  • When starting a new topic, please pick the most appropriate category (just one, please!) below.
  • Only one active identity is allowed per person, except by permission from Bill & Alanna.  All members must keep a valid email address on file with us. You have the option of keeping your address private from other members, but we need to be able to contact you if necessary.
Failure to follow these guidelines may result in the immediate deletion of the offending posts. Gross or repeated violations will result in the immediate suspension or termination of your posting privileges.

Yeah, I'd say you're the sucker all right. Good luck with getting health care from Trump's "concept of a plan" as well as his announced cuts to Medicare and Social Security.

Welp.  It's going to be a long two, maybe four years, for some here.

An Overlooked — and Increasingly Important — Clue to How People Vote
Most election post-mortems neglect a key determinant of how people vote — where they get their news.

In 2024, veterans voted Trump
Some say Harris's attempt to embrace old Iraq War hawks may have had the opposite effect
According exit polls on Election Day, 12% of the voters in this presidential election had served in the U.S. military and 65% of them said they voted for Donald Trump, while 34% said they voted for Kamala Harris.

We still need a breakdown of age to see if this was generational. Some suggest that younger Republicans, especially more recent veterans, are among the biggest resisters to the War Party orthodoxies on Capitol Hill, including now-Vice President-elect JD Vance, who served as a Marine in Iraq. Former Democratic Congresswoman and Iraq War veteran, Tulsi Gabbard, who campaigned for Trump and recently turned Republican, has also been a fierce critic of Biden's Ukraine War policy and Washington's militarism overall.

In the last weeks of the campaign Trump dusted off his 2016 case against forever wars, criticizing Harris for embracing Iraq war supporters, particularly Liz Cheney.

Tuesday's results are certainly not an anomaly. According to a report issued by the Pew Research Center in September, about 61% of registered voters who said they had served in the military or military reserves were planning to vote for Trump while 37% backed Harris. This tracks with past elections. According to Pew, 60% of veterans voted for Trump in 2020, while 39% backed President Joe Biden. (...)



A lot more analysis is needed here. Veterans IIRC tend to lean heavily conservative in general, so this election isn't necessarily a referendum on Biden's policy of supporting Ukraine. 

American military personnel are not formally involved with fighting in Ukraine, so it's not clear what American vets would be objecting to about our involvement there. We honored our commitments by supplying an ally with weapons, supplies and strategic advice. 

It's very wonderful to proclaim yourself anti-war but you don't walk away from an ally when another country invades. If you do, you're not going to get much cooperation or support from other countries in the future. 

Would you prefer to have Russia swallow up Ukraine and subjugate its people, R_P? Would that be better for you?
