Makes sense. COVID took away the LGBT community’s Pride events. This is a good way for gay men to take that back.

1. Biden is less unlikeable than Hillary. 2. Hillary won the popular vote. Even after catching pneumonia and appearing feeble. Even after the email scandal. Even after a lot of Bernie supporters wanted nothing to do with her. Even after her own lackluster campaigning. 3. Trump isn’t the relatively unknown candidate this time. He has had 4 years to prove that he’s a good president. There are reasons why things are different this time around. Biden has a better chance than Hillary ever did.

Yeah, that’s why forums such as this are less popular. People don’t get likes, upvotes, and retweets and it takes more effort to have an honest discussion. So, forums are less profitable or not profitable at all, depending on how the website owner goes about it. It’s an unfortunate reality.

Yeah, I learned that 2000 and 2016 were 2 out of 5 elections decided by electoral college votes rather than popular votes and that Republicans have benefitted from that discrepancy 4 out of 5 times. Neither party existed yet the first time.

Interestingly, Sam Harris’s latest podcast episode attempts to label social media as a “cult factory” that is responsible for the polarization we see today.

This sounds like a “nature vs. nurture” argument applied to an entire ethnicity rather than a person. That’s interesting, I never thought about it that way. If you go all in on the side of nature, you’d be saying they’re naturally inferior. If you go all in on nurture, white Americans don’t deserve any of the material wealth and status they have in society because they used slavery to get it. The reality is neither of those, of course.

Thinking outside the self!

Beautiful, thank you! The laughter and clapping when he talks about Marx is disgusting, though.

Trump having a NDE.........now that would be interesting!

I wonder if there are odds-makers in Vegas gambling on this. It would be a toxic stage orange thing to do, but I wouldn’t be surprised.

Then we have President Harris. It’s sad that that’s what it would take for us to have our first female president.

It may seem a bit much, but it’s necessary. Trump has consistently shown throughout his life, not only this past year, that he is incapable of empathizing. Losing in the polls, having his tax returns leaked, and catching COVID-19 all in quick succession are all good things for him. Those who lack empathy do all they can to manipulate and stay on top, but eventually they suffer too like everyone they affected along the way. In Trump’s case, it’s happening very bigly.

Music to my ears.

@tuckerwphotography https://www.nytimes.com/2018/05/08/opinion/intellectual-dark-web.html It’s a small yet diverse group of intellectuals who occupy their own niche and don’t necessarily agree with each other politically. But they all are outspoken in their own ways and are against the “cancel culture” and backlash that comes mainly from liberals.

Well, that sounds reassuring. Thanks! I hear a loooooooot of negativity.

I’m looking forward to the Harris/Pence debate.

Most people in Michigan don’t like the governor. I think anything she does at this point would be seen as interfering in favor of Joe Biden because she was one of the potential running mates.

Agreed. That’s why they have Greg Abbott as governor rather than Wendy Davis. Texas could be much more liberal if they wanted, but they don’t. It ain’t right.

We already went through years of hearing “Thanks, Obama!” at every bad thing. I’d rather not revisit it.

The strategy to winning this election is simple: don’t be Donald Trump.
