i just think at this point

2018-09-15 05:14:02 UTC  

I do think Tim also is one of those guys who always tries and play "center" even if it just means yielding ground.

2018-09-15 05:14:08 UTC  

the warriors of the culture war are getting long in the tooth

2018-09-15 05:14:13 UTC  

And not sticking to any consistent belief.

2018-09-15 05:14:15 UTC  

and everyone needs a friggin time out

2018-09-15 05:14:27 UTC  

Won't happen. Can't happen.

2018-09-15 05:14:48 UTC  

That's the point of the culture war. Fight until someone gets so exhausted they all just give up or are removed.

2018-09-15 05:14:51 UTC  

well like ive been fairly consistant

2018-09-15 05:15:01 UTC  

you arent wront there pratel

2018-09-15 05:15:10 UTC  

i used to be left, and now im right because ive stuck to a few core beliefs

2018-09-15 05:15:25 UTC  

mainly freedom of expression and speech which the right used to be opposed to but like... well present day....

2018-09-15 05:15:49 UTC  

Yeah, there were pretty major shifts around 2013 that have crystallized into 2018.

2018-09-15 05:16:05 UTC  

I don't think the shifts are appreciated yet.

My mom just texted me that she was telling her girlfriend (a survivor of the Las Vegas shooting who now owns a gun because of that) that I was telling her how I wanted a pellet gun for recreational shooting, and she said her girlfriend said she'd buy me one once I get my driver's license.

2018-09-15 05:16:23 UTC  

Nice.

2018-09-15 05:16:27 UTC  

How long were you on the left, Uregano?

2018-09-15 05:16:29 UTC  

ya i dont think i can ever remember a time where so much hubbub was going on about a friggin midterm election

2018-09-15 05:16:41 UTC  

since i was a child until 21

2018-09-15 05:16:48 UTC  

this is the first midterm i can remember where it was good vs evil

2018-09-15 05:16:56 UTC  

usually thats just the presidential shit

2018-09-15 05:17:04 UTC  

then i got a crash course into living in a city and totalitarian leftism and well

2018-09-15 05:17:06 UTC  

here i am now

2018-09-15 05:17:10 UTC  

It took me until the 2014 midterms to stop voting for the left.

2018-09-15 05:17:15 UTC  

im 26 now

2018-09-15 05:17:40 UTC  

@TylerC Were you politically involved before? 2006, and 2010 was also kinda high points.

It is considerably more polarized now and feels a bit higher stakes. But if you're new to all this it would feel much more involved than you're likely used to.

2018-09-15 05:17:50 UTC  

ive always been an accelerationist though, so to me, trump was my guy

2018-09-15 05:17:56 UTC  

i was before then too

2018-09-15 05:18:03 UTC  

but at least here

2018-09-15 05:18:14 UTC  

the midterms were usually just a shrug

2018-09-15 05:18:19 UTC  

@UwuesVult Similar. For me it was when I went to NY.

2018-09-15 05:18:21 UTC  

tyler did you listen to any of the songs off Selective Hearing

2018-09-15 05:18:23 UTC  

And here I voted for Trump because he wasn't a politician.

2018-09-15 05:18:46 UTC  

no i dont think i have hear that

2018-09-15 05:19:01 UTC  

i keep saying it

2018-09-15 05:19:12 UTC  

Well, the midterms do feel much more cataclysmic now. I will agree.

2018-09-15 05:19:16 UTC  

like the medias fetish for shitting on trump actually endears him to me

2018-09-15 05:19:20 UTC  

if the dems go with hilary again, ill vote trump just to watch their eyes melt

2018-09-15 05:19:31 UTC  

@UwuesVult I suspect you're not the only one.

2018-09-15 05:19:45 UTC  

Actually, I hear there's a subtle rebellion in the black community right now.

2018-09-15 05:19:49 UTC  

If the Dems go for Hillary again that would be hiliarious!

2018-09-15 05:19:57 UTC  

Hillary is a has been.
