The greatest #american #propaganda to date is to convince people that it's a #democrat vs. #republican fight and separate those factions of people. While the Republican Elite have gone very extremist, most of the concerns of their voters are caused by the top 1%. It's always been a fight between the oppressed poor and the oppresor rich. Anyway vote for the best #Capitalist today.

Tonight people vote for a capitalist in midterms. Running an election is an entire industry if you think about it. The two parties in US are really about being a better or worse capitalist. You want to provide things like universal healthcare and parental leaves etc. because the better the work force is satisfied with the rule of capitalism the more people will accept it as a vital alternative. This is the democratic party. The other is the bad capitalists I don't mean it in terms of morality but more they're bad at implementing capitalism. A workforce that's continually economically frustrated can cause big societal changes. Anyways let the better capitalist win.

I also really like how posting is called "toot". I like to free right as a form of intellectual diarrhea so it's only expected that a constrained version of that is called a toot.

I struggle with two conflicting ideals and this is probably in part because I've not been on social media since FB was a new thing. On the one hand I want to keep myself anonymous, on the other I want to share my experiences as a person and in particular as a person in science, my thoughts and critiques of scientific field etc.

The former ideal constraints the latter. There's always the thought in my head whether the aggregation of things I write here could be traced back to me. Frankly, the later ideal forces the former too in a sense. Among other things one reason I want to stay anonymous is to shield myself from backlash.

I'll see how I handle this conflict. Right now this thought is just out there.
