Oh, that reminds me. I made a bumper sticker I think people here would like, but I don't know if it's okay to post a link to it.

2020-03-05 13:55:13 UTC  

Just madlad it.

2020-03-05 13:55:34 UTC  

Blame Count Dankula if something goes wrong.

2020-03-05 13:55:52 UTC  

You can get it as a magnet, too.

2020-03-05 13:56:31 UTC  

Been translating political bumper stickers to basically this in my head for years.

2020-03-05 13:56:51 UTC  

Electoral College Moaning Shit Weasels just don't carry the same weight as Remoaning Shit Weasel.

2020-03-05 13:57:03 UTC  

Truth.

2020-03-05 13:57:48 UTC  

To be fair, President Trump has for the most part done good by his people.

2020-03-05 13:58:08 UTC  

Far more than one could expect from well

2020-03-05 13:58:34 UTC  

Yeah, I am surprised at how decent a job he's doing, given the extremely low regard I had for him before his election.

2020-03-05 13:58:46 UTC  

Donald "Flip different parties til I win" Trump.

2020-03-05 13:58:48 UTC  

I was under no illusion that I would prefer Hillary, however, so.

2020-03-05 13:59:07 UTC  

Here is the worst part.

2020-03-05 13:59:20 UTC  

If he was a Democrat president.

2020-03-05 13:59:38 UTC  

The Democrats would be showering him with praise.

2020-03-05 13:59:50 UTC  

Truth. He was a New York Democrat like ten years ago.

2020-03-05 13:59:59 UTC  

And his policies haven't changed much.

2020-03-05 14:00:02 UTC  

For his bipartisan no nonsense approach to governance.

2020-03-05 14:00:25 UTC  

And for acting on principles instead of party.

2020-03-05 14:00:34 UTC  

Its more that the dems moved left than Trump moved right

2020-03-05 14:01:01 UTC  

Yah. Seen quite a few studies about that.

2020-03-05 14:01:11 UTC  

Well yes but I speak of the moderate Dems and the Elites.

2020-03-05 14:01:20 UTC  

Weird part for me is that thanks to who I dated in college, I have been sort of watching the entire shitshow coming for decades.

2020-03-05 14:02:05 UTC  

My boyfriend at the time was a philosophy major, doing his Master's thesis. Like an idiot, he decided to do it on Academic Neutrality. Which required him to dig into every sacred cow that couldn't be subjected to academic rigor because it was "too important".

2020-03-05 14:02:11 UTC  

THE RACE IS ON! TULSI WILL PULL A JEB AND STEAL IT FROM BIDEN!

2020-03-05 14:02:24 UTC  

Learned some seriously weird things about the left back then, just been watching it bloom since.

2020-03-05 14:03:21 UTC  

Speaking of Jeb.

2020-03-05 14:03:31 UTC  

I love that the Bushes are dying.

2020-03-05 14:03:37 UTC  

Well I just assumed that both parties would go to shit.

2020-03-05 14:03:51 UTC  

That's what gonna happen for sure.

2020-03-05 14:04:05 UTC  

This is actually more about the ideology and the intentional takeover of academia than the political action portion of things.

2020-03-05 14:04:30 UTC  

Well they aren't mutually exclusive.

2020-03-05 14:04:50 UTC  

politics is downwind of culture

2020-03-05 14:04:52 UTC  

Apparently, some of the people who did sit-ins and so on, rather than thinking the goal was to get academia back to being ideologically neutral as much as possible, just decided that the whole point was indoctrination, so they might as well take over the inputs.

2020-03-05 14:05:02 UTC  

Like, literally and in those terms.

2020-03-05 14:05:13 UTC  

By the time I was in college, it was well underway, but it wasn't done yet.

2020-03-05 14:06:14 UTC  

Well I was raised in a left wing household that taught me to distrust a lot of information taught to me.

2020-03-05 14:06:48 UTC  

So I was never grasped one way or the other via indoctrination.
