Profit motives are good at ruining social platforms; society.
Pinker’s true genius is that he rewrites the same book every two years Things Are Absolutely Awesome: Why The 1% Are Doing a Bang Up Job and Why Anyone Saying Otherwise Is An Irrational Fucking Idiot and each time he gets more media coverage than the moon landing

I’m having a tough time caring about a “democracy” that ignores majority opinions. Trump can’t really end something that doesn’t exist
Can anyone tell me where all the liberals who were worried about migrants went? Or the ones worried about all the oil extraction on national land? Or building the wall because it disrupts butterflies or whatever?

sub_ubi@lemmy.mlto politics @lemmy.world•Muslims disillusioned by Biden face difficult choice with Trump1·2 年前Rather than shaming people into eating shit, perhaps you could shame Biden into supporting a policy that has popular support in swing states.
Keep in mind that most low income people were materially better off under Trump, whose pandemic policies resulted in the lowest childhood poverty rate since the 90s. (These welfare policies were cancelled or expired under Biden.) So a Biden preference, if it exists, may not be as strong as you assume.

It’s an entirely different strategy:
A) I’ll vote for you no matter what you do!
Versus
B) You must earn my vote.

sub_ubi@lemmy.mlto politics @lemmy.world•Muslims disillusioned by Biden face difficult choice with Trump4·2 年前A popular sentiment, but not among historians.
Third party voting in US politics has resulted in numerous labor and civil rights. women’s suffrage, social security, 8 hour workday, etc.
Just another time when academia conflicts with your typical op-ed. A third party vote is probably the most powerful one you can make.

sub_ubi@lemmy.mlto politics @lemmy.world•Muslims disillusioned by Biden face difficult choice with Trump1113·2 年前People shouldn’t vote for genocide. If your choice is between Hitler and Satan it’s ok to not vote, or heaven forbid, support a third party.
