I'm wondering what his nickname would be for Leo 😆

The childless cat lady is welcome, and she draws larger crowds than Trump so maybe she won the 2020 election. 🤷♂️

(satire) I have a concept of a plan. It's 9 years in the making. It's going to be great. The best plan ever. Everybody says so. It's coming soon. It will end all disease. Nobody will ever get sick again. Absolute immunity. It's great. 9 years in the making. Coming very soon. Next week maybe, but soon, very soon.

A political Christian is someone who uses Christian beliefs to make policies. Christianity influences how they think governments and society should be run on issues like gay marriage, abortion, etc. -

This wording could be misunderstood. Father of the Constitution James Madison was the lightest ever at 100 lbs. -

@Joshe it's possible. Don't forget to factor in rust and mileage. -

@Hardkill Then in 1864, Lincoln chose Democrat, Andrew Johnson, as his running mate, being the last time a dem/rep ticket ran. They ran under the National Union Party to promote unity during the Civil War. -

Alan Lichtman's model is like an old, reliable car. It has a long history of getting the job done, and it still works well today. But sooner or later, it might stop working, and you're just hoping it lasts a little longer. As the world changes, especially with new technology and shifting politics, there’s a chance that this model won’t keep up forever. Let's just hope it's not today. As for how I think about the election situation itself, it could be better, and it could be worse. I’m just glad the Democrats have a fair chance, about 50%, of winning. It would feel hopeless if their chances were slim. -
Before we criticize MAGA we must first steel man MAGA.

That's perfect 😆

Oh, okay. Off-topic, you should use the word smorgasbord in the next two videos on this topic also.

@Leo GuraYou have said that when people like Trump uses his/her mind to con the public, that that's not really intelligence, which I agree. You now say that Putin's Brain wants to regress Russia back to premodernism and that for that plan he is genius. What's the difference?

Of the three isms in the video, I relate to postmodernism the most by far. Some notes from the postmodern perspective: The primal thing in human discourse and even human activity is not truth seeking. It's survival. Postmodernism is not a grand narrative. Take it as a perspective. Truth is socially justified beliefs. Truth is what your contemporaries let you get away with.

Vance is going to have to couch his words very carefully in this debate. 😄 -

Did anyone just ask Alexa why she is giving answers for Kamala and not for Trump? -

Certain radicals aren't even aware that they're being led on and you're right. It's almost worse than, say, the tobacco industry or the fast food industry because at least their victims are aware of their problem. @Consept -

This is true. It isn't just the media causing polarization, it is also the consumer choosing to believe the narrative, along with other influencers contributing. -

Trump is an attention whore. Like a child who can't get enough attention, even if it is negative, all eyes must be on him. His antics will continue to get more vile as people's attention avert to Harris. -

This is a red herring but to answer your question, sensoring that story didn't save lives, but it just may have saved our democracy. Also, the White House didn't pressure Zuckerberg to sensor, he solicited aid from the W.H. to help him fight the overload of shady information on his platform. -

Implementing temporary censorship to protect public health and save many lives during a once-in-a-century pandemic is a justified measure.
