The Great Debate
- Thread starter Big Rig
- Start date
Well that didn't take long. Here's your post from July:
Why would a self-professed socialist ever vote Conservative?
Voted. That means that was in the past. I am changing. I am changing because our society is changing.
I would like much more chances for our younger generations to have a decent life.
There's a lot of evidence that the country is not as divided as the media portrays it to be. We do have strong far left and far right contingencies, but if I had to guess they might max out at 25-30% at the fringes.
The media magnifies the noise. It sells papers as they used to say. Having two parties that are both competitive also creates the feeling that disagreement is damaging, when most Americans have a pragmatic perspective.
I have often said I think disagreement and debate are healthy for a democracy. I point to Germany where voters are so frustrated with the relative homogeneity of the historic mainstream parties that many are voting for fringe parties.
The Polarization Myth
The growing evidence that—even heading into this year’s election—Americans are less divided than you may think.
You denounced capitalism. Now the answer is the government should provide everything. You're a universal everything guy.
No one changes that much unless of course they like to masquerade a bit on social media.
I do not denounced capitalism. I denounced over capitalism.
In most province of canada years ago our government decided to take care of electricity, and removed private sector from it. Their was a reason behind it. It had become a basic need and greedy private sector were abusing.
Just like current pharmaceutical companies charging American citizens some molecules 1000% more than what they ask other countries.
I think my biggest issue is i lust trust in people. It seems to me now that screwing up and overcharging anyone has become the norm.
I think we are at a point to revise a few other sectors like housing. And maybe or probably even food.
While I don’t think the debate hosts were fair to
@realDonaldTrump
,
@KamalaHarris
exceeded most people’s expectations tonight. That said, when it comes to getting things done, not just saying nice-sounding words, I strongly believe that Trump will do a far better job. After all, if Kamala can do great things, why hasn’t she? Biden rarely shows up for work, so she’s basically in charge already. The question comes down to this: do you want current trends to continue for 4 more years or do you want change?

's zero while letting her get away with hoaxes that their own network debunked. ABC News' reputation was the real loser last night. All future
@GOP
nominees should never agree to another debate on the network again.
I see @mitchell76 and the other right wingers he follows are trying to flood the field with bullshit. Even the Murdoch owned Wall Street Journal is calling the pet eating story false. And of course it is racist and targets immigrants. And, as I mentioned in another thread, they're trying to rehabilitate Trump's disastrous performance on Tuesday by saying it was rigged and the moderators were out to get him....even though he spoke for much longer than Harris. Which...might have been her plan. The man cannot stay on script, and apparently if he has to talk for more than two sentences he begins to ramble and make crazier and crazier statements...
CNN is owned by republicans. They are on the way down.
For many years they fought. They though sticking to reality would prevail. But now they are realizing they are loosing that battle.
because social networks are grabbing all commercial space, and having ppl on these networks the possibility to say any shit they want on it, CNN is going to disappear.
