Unfortunately controversial opinions are always bolstered because they create a lot of discussion
The internet in general is what's really not helping with political polarization.
^^^
With algorithms it uses to introduce people to echo chambers, because people don't generally like stumbling upon disagreement.
It's things like Youtube, like Facebook and Twitter that really don't help.
I only use YouTube but that’s for sure
Watch one conservative video
And you’ll get spammed the fuck out of them
Same for liberal videos
They ostrasize disagreement when it stumbles in. That keeps it pure. Black and white thinking and intolerance to criticism. Cult behavior.
We should socialize all the social media comrades

When you only see one side of the conversation, you are forced to look through the lens of the person giving you the information.
If that person is attempting to make a living, making provocative content is usually successful content.
So you'll see that from both sides.
It's the age of clickbait.
I'm being somewhat disingenuous. These are features of which I am aware. I like to hear things explained from different perspectives, so I ask questions.
You're being a contrarian or attempting to play devil's advocate, which is fine.
It avoids having echo chambers.
People don't like sound baffles in their echo chambers. Countermeasures have evolved from derision and threats to simply ignoring...and it's effective, from what I've seen.
Where can I read or hear a brief on those? They are new to me.
Nvm. Found a guy called Paul Cottrell.
Does he talk more about the hammer and scorecard? @Zuluzeit
Link?
I don't know how to post links but his channel is called simply Paul Cottrell on YouTube.
@Elias Diaz and yes, he talks about and plays an audio clip of a guy explaining hammer & scorecard
Apparently, it's HAMR
Just watched and it just doesn't seem legit. I sooo hope it is and Trump turns out to be a genius being able to unveil such fraud but i see no evidence for anything.
I hope i am wrong though. People are getting tired of seeing Trump declare himself the victor while kamala and Joe celebrate the win. And it looks worse every day he does that without evidence
Now I'm wondering how there would be a Republican majority Senate...or any part of the 2016 election, for that matter, if it were a thing.
And to be fair, it wouldn't be Trump's genius if it were uncovered. Js
They cant declare victory if the votes are challenged, it's like when a little kid wins by cheating and says thats it it's done.
No, if you won fair and square then wait for the dust to settle. There is nothing to worry about.
They absolutely can declare victory if the votes are challenged.
Just look at 2016.
You can't stop the country from functioning for the next few years.
If the ballots were illegal then that invalidates them.
The same sort of ideology of "if you did nothing wrong, there is nothing to worry about" came with the PATRIOT act as well, keep that in mind.
If they change the numbers the opposite direction then that can call into question how far it went
I'm not saying don't do investigations.
I'm saying we can't stop the country from functioning until those investigations are over.
