It could achieve a lot if everyone in Burma could stop saying something is good if it is not good, or say something is just if it is not just. ↗

And I think there's something about conservatives frankly - and the Left, when it comes to their channels of persuasion, are unpersuasive. They are, most of them are hate-filled, obscenity-clogged rants of anger and hatred. ↗
