Uspol 2020 speculation
@SecondJon It feels like trump has way more support this time around. Plus liberals just doubled down on the stuff that drove people away from them int he last election. Because of this I see a decent chance for trump to win. I wish he wouldnt, though im not sure the democrats have anyone better, but I really do hope trump doesnt win, but he likely will based on the current picture.
Uspol 2020 speculation
I think Trump's personality was in everyone's calculations last presidential election. We know he's a jerk to his perceived opponents. The main attack on Trump my the bulk of the media and the democrats (but I repeat myself) seems to be this. But everyone already knew that. I don't expect Trump has lost voters because of this.
Meanwhile, the democrats are changing, in more openly being farther and farther left. I don't think this gains them voters, maybe they've lost voters.
Trump had no political track record, but now he does, and has done things that many like : employment numbers have never been better, possible momentum with North Korea, cutting regulation. So...
I think Trump gains votes for 2020. But I think the far left candidate gets better turn out than Clinton did. That's not difficult.
I think the left leadership of the media (traditional and social) know this as well, hence the efforts to silence anyone who voices anything but unthinking support of whatever new idea is put out as leftist, and slandering everyone as a nazi fascist.
I'm curious to see how that balances out.

Nation Relieved As Politicians Too Busy Bickering To Push Their Terrible Ideas On The Country
U.S. - The nation reported it was relieved Friday as it appeared that politicians were so busy bickering with one another that they didn't have much time to work on their terrible ideas for running the country.As Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Nancy Pelosi began to fight with one another, the nation breathed a sigh of relief as they were distracted from...
I think the most interesting things about this article about abortion is that the word "mother" never appears. Instead it says : "or to save the life of the woman." words matter. These words are chosen to drive an ideological agenda.

♲ @thegibson@hackers.town: Things were not worse then.
two things happened to destroy the modeled future that we lost.
one, 9/11... we lost our future in the states that day... and due to that, much of the rest of the world did too due to our influence.
two, 2008...
the consumerization of IT DID NOT make anything better.
that was the lock-in for surveillance capitalism.
in the 90's, while the tech wasn't mature, we had the frontier you mentioned, and it made everything better...
it was freedom... and freedom that I work daily to restore.
What climate change crisis is really about. Spoiler : it's not the climate.
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s chief of staff recently admitted that the Green New Deal was not conceived as an effort to deal with climate change, but instead a “how-do-you-change-the-entire economy thing”
Trump approval higher than Obama's was.
I'm surprised. We form our opinions based on media, as we don't know the guy ourselves. With an objective media (which I know is impossible), I wonder how different these approval numbers would be. Wildly different, I suspect.

I'm interested in being just not civil, but excellent in interacting with others of different viewpoints in an online world where we can so viciously defend our echo chambers and be so dismissive of other perspectives.
