    The basic test of freedom is perhaps less in what we are free to do than in what we are free not to do. It is the freedom to refrain, withdraw and abstain which makes a totalitarian regime impossible. Eric Hoffer

    Given the timing, it might just be H.W as a tribute.
    Once in a while you get shown the light, in the strangest of places if you look at it right.

    doubtful. it's not about tributes it's about yearly impact on the news cycle and influence.

    My guesses:

    • Trump (obv choice)
    • Mueller (also possible, not sure tho)
    • Women (times does this sometimes and gives it to a group, totally conceivable they do something stupid like "the year of the women" or something completely retarded)


    I can't really think of other people that have hugely impacted the news. If you want to correctly predict, it needs to be someone that's been in the news a lot and someone the times will want to circlejerk over (either negatively or positively)
    I'm betting on Occasional-Cortex.

    To Troll: Do not assume I am on Trump’s side because I have no use for the press:


    If Americans want to protect the First Amendment start by eliminating these four words ——“or of the press” —— so that it reads:


    First Amendment
    Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.


    Notice that the press would still enjoy freedom of speech like the rest of us, but they would have to defend freedom of speech as a matter of self-interest instead of only defending their constitutional privilege while they feed the rest us to Socialist/Communist wolves.
