The extremes of anything tend to be rabbitholes. absolutely MSM has us split as far apart as possible. Divide and conquer. Left and right voters hater each other because of the lies and insane hype each opposing news outlet puts out. It's psychological warfare and the PTB putting out all these lies and deceptions know it. It's well beyond fucked up. As a loving, social species we can not thrive and be happy without UNITY. It's easy to get there though; quit listening to the bullshit and start talking constructively to each other again. I wish biden was being honest when he said he is going to unite us but I highly doubt it. He's more like a dictator (rather, the puppet masters pulling his strings and manipulating him are) than a vision of unity. Trump appeared to have a libertarian mindset but he had too much ego, drama, and bullshit which only further divided us. I know a bunch of candidates, both R & D that could make a truly great president. I don't think the evil PTB will ever let them run or win though. :( ... Copied to Clipboard!

Leftist Twitter was co-opted by the Big Oil billionaire machine just like all our ideas and institutions were. To divide/conquer the people so that we don't automate Maslow's hierarchy of needs with the technology we have available already.

That is to say, 2+2=5 being a statement about people being expected to believe something that is obviously contrary to reality, presumably on threat of punishment, is a George Orwell thing. And it has been used in Stalinist propaganda. Granted, I may be generous in supposing the right wingers get the reference too. ... Copied to Clipboard!

The best part of leftist Twitter is the shitposters. There are some really quality shitposting accounts out there. For the rest, I refer to this tweet:

I don't understand how 2+2=5 is a complicated or controversial subject.
We choose the symbols we want to represent abstract concepts. In this case, if 2+2=5, what that would mean is just that we are saying the physical symbol for representing [o, o, o, o] items is 5. 4 would be the symbol for something else, maybe [o, o, o, o, o] in a world where we choose for an arbitrary reason to count "1, 2, 3, 5, 4" instead. This doesn't change that math is objectively true or correct. We know it is, and we just need to figure out more math. There is no case where changing our symbols means that, say, some set (a, b, c) joined with a set (d) creates a set with fewer items than (a, b, c, d). --- proudclad LAYIN DOWN THE SMACK - Error1355 Christian Marxism actually makes sense.

Yeah, this is the issue with a lot of leftist/liberal causes, I find. It's an issue with "too many cooks". Well, as I see it, the thing with Conservatism is that it is about, at its most basic, maintaining the status quo. At most, perhaps trying to reverse some progressive successes. Compared to Progressivism which seems to be about a constant pull to the left. And actual goals can change each generation. Yesteryear's progressives are today's moderates, and the moderates are today's conservatives. And, as you mention by "too many cooks", there are various interests basically competing for attention and resources. ... Copied to Clipboard!
