oh man

2019-01-06 02:54:45 UTC  

I thought about that guy last night.

Let's take this to DMs if we're going to get any more personal

My man!

2019-01-06 02:57:02 UTC  

literally the chart I had in mind

2019-01-06 02:58:46 UTC  

the only people who care who freee muuurkets are College Republicans

2019-01-06 02:59:11 UTC  

Went looking for this same chart and the article with it was claiming "Libertarians exist, and in droves" when it says the opposite lol

2019-01-06 02:59:39 UTC  

The vast majority of people just want a better life for themselves and their families and don't really give a shit about abstract principles

2019-01-06 03:00:02 UTC  

People like us who sit around and read political theory are very rare

2019-01-06 03:02:58 UTC  

not sure about that - most people in USA love "American" values like tolerance, democracy, and diversity

2019-01-06 03:03:28 UTC  

People like us just have to direct the angry masses when everything goes south

2019-01-06 03:04:01 UTC  

Why not both

2019-01-06 03:05:01 UTC  

Most people say they love things like tolerance and diversity because they're conditioned to do so. It's not that they disagree per se, but people mostly self segregate though they'd never admit it

2019-01-06 03:05:42 UTC  

Mass media is a hell of a drug

2019-01-06 03:06:21 UTC  

Monied interests have been campaigning in a very organized manner to subvert education and mass media since 1900

this gal is the platonic ideal of an udmurt

2019-01-06 03:07:21 UTC  

They wear tinfoil?

2019-01-06 03:10:17 UTC  

@Nemets I genuinely don't believe that the average white person really gives a shit about "diversity" or "tolerance"

2019-01-06 03:11:42 UTC  

There's a very small amount of true believers who will do things like intentionally finding diverse schools for their kids

2019-01-06 03:12:05 UTC  

They exist but they're not common at all

2019-01-06 03:13:45 UTC  

My very liberal diversity loving friends have admitted they’d never raise and send their kids to schools on the west side of Salt Lake City !! 😂 I wonder why 🤔

2019-01-06 03:13:58 UTC  

The vast majority actively avoid diverse schools. It's no coincidence that busing coincided with the private school boom

2019-01-06 03:14:28 UTC  

I used to apply minor pressure on people at a previous job along that line of rhetoric

2019-01-06 03:14:32 UTC  

They'll insist it isn't racial, but deep down they know

2019-01-06 03:14:50 UTC  

"what do you mean 'good schools', they all get the same funding from the county!?!"

2019-01-06 03:17:32 UTC  

at least here, all the white students attend diverse schools. They're a fifth of the youth by census count, and that includes Moslems

2019-01-06 03:18:54 UTC  

the rich people here are pretty enthusiastic about it too - great opportunities for their kids in pacific palisades and beverly hills to grow up with the future leadership class of china, vietnam, bengladesh, pakistan, qatar, etc

2019-01-06 03:20:30 UTC  

diversity to them means a very different thing from what it means to us

2019-01-06 03:29:50 UTC  

Who should I contact to see if my LOPF money arrived?

@TMatthews my family avoided public schools altogether and homeschooled me and my brothers

2019-01-06 03:41:58 UTC  

Homeschooling is more & more preferable to the pub-ed route.

2019-01-06 03:49:22 UTC  

Just make sure you socialize them

2019-01-06 03:49:55 UTC  

I was homeschooled for a few years and met some kids who were complete weirdos because their parents never let them leave the house.

2019-01-06 03:50:38 UTC  

Easily mitigated by having a cover school or something

2019-01-06 03:59:22 UTC  

@Sam Southern - TN Maybe an activism opportunity for this victim of an illegal. https://twitter.com/Justice4Pierce/status/1081323027579719683?s=19
