Once a person is radicalized, they cannot easily be de-radicalized

I wonder if we can move this to VC. 🤔

We talk

😳

I'll listen in, maybe comment :)

That would require me to stop listening to Testament

Yeah, I don't like moderating a chat stream where nothing is happening.

Argentina 1950-2002 is exactly what is happening to the US right now

The New Testament

😄

The same “social justice” shtick?

If this was in a vc, then there would be even less to moderate.

Yep exactly

*The time is coming!*

Don't worry, I just want this conversation to also progress. 🙂

Identity politics, nationalism, and spending.

How long do you give Biden in office if he gets there?

Centrists just don't care about facts. They trust the media they follow too easily.

We may disagree on how we get there @Rocci but we want the same outcome for this country. We don't want the left to take over.

We need to further divide the relationship between the media and the government.

They lack gumption and decisiveness

But I've seen and lived through this before and I don't want to live through it again.

Don't make any rash decisions in your angst

I register as an independent.

You know what I think of independents?

I won't offer blanket support to a party that refuses to prevent impeachment of trump

Biden will be fine. I give him four years of being a puppet.

Are we going to VC?

"Independents" are soft Democrats, aligning with Democrats at least 75% of the time. "Independent" my ass

I'm there. 🙂

Only because of the media.

Guys

What happened to Jake?

Jake from State Farm

I have read a lot of polls on economic, social, and political issues in various conservative, liberal, and milk toast center places. These people are hardly even thinking, let alone for themselves. I can say with certainty that it's because they are sold these garbage ideas, as you say. I would add their moth eaten brains also contribute to gulping down the Kool-Aid easier

Read "Manufacturing Consent" book. Explains everything, how the media is a political weapon to control everyone
