I mean tell me wrong, I'm glad I have a moderate Republican to vote for

2018-10-17 11:29:10 UTC  

But I have the same issues that $10, as someone that's moderate I need a decent alternative on the left

2018-10-17 11:29:38 UTC  

I like half a say Tim does, it autocorrects to $10

Speech to text is a hell of a drug

2018-10-17 11:30:40 UTC  

Anyone else really enjoying timcast?

2018-10-17 11:30:46 UTC  

Yes

2018-10-17 11:31:05 UTC  

I'm not NPC, I don't understand what did you write 😄

2018-10-17 11:31:07 UTC  

I liked him before, but the timcast format makes him so much edgier and frustrated LMAO

2018-10-17 11:31:54 UTC  

I know he keeps saying he'll never vote republican but maybe that will change as the dems get even more crazy. <:TimThink:482277772497125378>

2018-10-17 11:32:12 UTC  

Last night he said he might vote

2018-10-17 11:32:20 UTC  

You know, I will always be a Centrist

2018-10-17 11:32:35 UTC  

You can vote for parties and still be centrist.

2018-10-17 11:32:36 UTC  

But in reality the left is going way too far to the left and the right is happy to go towards the center to pick up those votes

2018-10-17 11:33:01 UTC  

I think the issue is that even though the definitions of where the line is drawn changes, people like Tim make the mistake of thinking that his values are tied to the name left and right

2018-10-17 11:33:43 UTC  

When in reality I'm simply uncompromising to my values even if the political landscape changes around me, I would still say I'm a Centrist, even if at this point I'm like 80% Republican because of how much we have shifted to the left

2018-10-17 11:34:21 UTC  

My biggest worry at this point is the left losing another 2 or 4 years in a row

2018-10-17 11:34:30 UTC  

And then just radicalizing and trying to overthrow the government

2018-10-17 11:34:46 UTC  

If there was an actual independent party I would understand if Tim didn't want to vote for the wings but there isn't.

2018-10-17 11:34:56 UTC  

A second biggest fear is that by the time the next generation is a beige, the Red Wave will become so hyper dominant that the left won't even be competition anymore and it'll simply turn into who can be more right-wing

2018-10-17 11:35:34 UTC  

*next generation is of age

2018-10-17 11:35:41 UTC  

Now left/right is a vote of sanity vs insanity.

2018-10-17 11:35:53 UTC  

Yeah, and that's a terrible thing LMAO

2018-10-17 11:36:12 UTC  

The capitalist in me wants people to compete because we win

2018-10-17 11:36:40 UTC  

At the moment it's not really direct competition it's more or less just hysteria on both ends of the spectrum with a large chunk of Common Sense siding with the right at this point

2018-10-17 11:36:49 UTC  

~~ever since the 2016 election I’ve been more right-wing, so politically that just seems like something that’s fine with me, but the real reason for it being so bad for us is how much destruction Democrats and their voters will bring with them if they go down~~

2018-10-17 11:38:01 UTC  

I think a lot of the issues dems run on aren't actually issues. It's just that they create problems.

2018-10-17 11:38:18 UTC  

Well, the funny thing is, today I am practically considered conservative but in 2006 when I graduated high school and was able to vote I would very clearly be considered a liberal

2018-10-17 11:38:26 UTC  

It's literally things that if you ignore them they go away.

2018-10-17 11:38:27 UTC  

They like to create problems rather than solve them

2018-10-17 11:38:46 UTC  

What part of me just thought about it in a more abstract archetypical sense

2018-10-17 11:39:01 UTC  

If progress is against conservation

2018-10-17 11:39:11 UTC  

Everyone but me is an NPC.

2018-10-17 11:39:20 UTC  

Progress will eventually reach the point where it is no longer useful, and at that point conserving progress is more important

2018-10-17 11:39:30 UTC  

I’ve always been a drone

2018-10-17 11:39:32 UTC  

Also sir

2018-10-17 11:39:35 UTC  

If the progressive representation is no longer useful, they might create their own problems just to remain relevant

2018-10-17 11:39:41 UTC  

It’s drone, not NPC

2018-10-17 11:39:50 UTC  

We've already long passed the point of where progress is regressive.

2018-10-17 11:39:51 UTC  

I gtg

2018-10-17 11:39:52 UTC  

Post scarcity is fantasy, not sci-fi

2018-10-17 11:39:52 UTC  

Check your f****** pronouns

2018-10-17 11:40:08 UTC  

I’d like the idea of post scarcity but eh
