Honestly I prefer the Republican Party because their candidates are wider and walk better

i like to think of it as a mass migration away from the church fueled by the democratic party

*delurks* The Democrats kept upping the ante on their grab for power, until they couldn't back down without losing it all.

Now they're going all-in, hoping there'll be enough of a country left for them to rule over.

> @Tyler Zed btw, how did you get into politics
@NEXRAD when I was in the military I really started paying attention. Just seeing how the military ticked and how bureaucracy worked and just started reading more and more. I think it's all fascinating, just how power works, how we are all influenced, etc

What branch were you in?

there are sciences behind influencing people in the most miniscule of ways. its crazy.

I love when people say "we need to get rid of the electoral college because this is a democracy" and I remind them that Hitler came to power thanks to a strict democracy. Weird that they never have a retort to that.

@Tyler Zed that's neat, didn't know you were in the military

mhm. exactly, deplorable.

Air force

@Tyler Zed Thank you for your service, your wide president was very fun to walk with.

sick dude

I wanted to join the airforce

some people are so stupid, that they would prefer literal mob rule over a healthy system.

@Deplorable Me america isnt a democracy

You served anywjere?

@Wardog those studies are bunk tho. Look up the reproduciblity crisis.

Wide Putin I will make a wide tyler...

<:e6screm:483451138516058123>

In japan or somewhere?

Interesting

@Sugar Goat uh? what studies?

Okinawa for two years and Texas for two

@Tyler Zed Becoming wide is not an easy task, but a man like you can certainly do it

The studies on influencing behavior

God we need to have an "ask zed" channel lmao

i didnt say any specific studies...? and influencing behavior isnt something thats really debatable.. its a fact

politicans and the media influence us everyday, or try to

^

marketing campaigns for anything that gets sold in a capitalist society is backed by insane amounts of tiny micro influences.

it's as simple as selecting certain buzz words in headlines

Look up Wansink.

cant affect me, i dont have a brain

One thing I like about the US is the respect you guys have for your military. We don't here, sadly 😦

its crazy seeing how effective it is on people too

Sure but that's just old fashioned propaganda. Lol.

when you arent brainwashed and you can just see how these false headlines actually grab peoples attention

Where are you from Rational?

It's simple. Dumb down the populace and they're easy to manipulate and control. Just think about this. Pop music in the 80's was written at a high school, entry college level. Pop music today is written at a 6-7th grade level.
