sometimes i think i'm getting a insight into how Rome looked before the fall
I think people see patterns too much
massive political corruption, excess etc lol
The rome trope raises my skeptical meters to full
yeah i mean it in jest really
heh the similarities are interesting if you over analyse it lol
just waiting for the gauls and visigoths to invade
@TacitusKilgore I feel that our society is suffering from a lack of critical analysis so I think it’s okay to over analyze in an attempt to force some eyes to open 🤷🏼♀️ I don’t think you’re altogether wrong in the Rome analogy lol
well the vanity of youth and the rejection of faith could be added to the equation too lol
i don't know... i really want the U.S to set a good example for the rest of the world...we tend to follow in their footsteps to some degree
I am going to just say social construction with a mean mass media to construct and push the views and beliefs of the people of this country
this is the first time in my life i hope our paths diverge
i didn't know you could like posts, pretty new to discord XD
Hahahaha we have emojis too apparently 😂 I too came to discord just for the Gruler crew
same lol... i've enjoyed his streams, most youtube channels are hyperpartisan, he's a straight shooter, calm, composed... better for your emotional health than some of the other doomsayers
i mean im pretty right wing but i get sick of the same talking points sometimes... tim pool gets on my nerves lol
im sure he's a nice guy but something about his delivery annoys me
Preach!!!! I second that. He’s good for the explanation and teaching of our political system and constitution. I am a constitutionalist and therefore tend to identify as red given the current political climate and attempt at destroying my constitution lol
agree wholeheartedly
If there is one take away from this election, it's that pre election polls suck and the people running them need to be looked at
@Manana that was the take away from the last election
well, it was worse this election
fair
haha
Just saw stat Trump won highest amount non white voters for the GOP since 1960. In the two elections that Trump was in the GOP got 15 more points for minority voters voting GOP.
Funny that it seems the other camp ran their entire election surrounding the racial inequalities piece and it seems that it was ill fitted for swinging minority voters who flipped after Obama election due to the clear continued increase in this targeted voting population
that wasn't meant to attract minorities
they already had minorities in the bag
that was meant to attract so called "allies"
fire them up etc.
Biden wasn't even that strong on that sort of thing
(he isn't very woke personally)
I am specifically referring to the GOP minority voters gained by GOP with trump election. The minority voters increased in points from Obama to Trump therefore the minority voters did flip
and you point out the irony that focusing on racial inequalities did not help or perhaps harmed their minority vote numbers
and I am saying I don't think the did that expecting a larger minority vote
No harm done to voters lol
I understand your point now thanks for clarifying
the new york times and associated press are calling wisconsin for joe biden
