          You’re talking about how the tenor of the dialogue has changed, I take it? It has. It’s a social media dynamic IMO, and I lay a lot of blame at the feet of corporate social media. Part of why I’m here instead of reddit.

                There’s a good reason so many are disgusted with the show. It’s not where most are at.

                  Well. ‘most’ is a difficult denominator. What they were saying in that 4 day, 8-hours per day, multiple voices speaking (except a Palestinian voice, and I’m with you there) does seem to resonate with a whole lot of people. Now, is it most or not, I guess we’ll just have to wait until November to see. Be some excitement in St. Petes too, no?

                    This is just a concerted media push and it’s really, really obvious. Our media overlords decided we love Harris and Walz and…well just read any political philosophy book.

      Yeah, and I’m lovin’ it. The political axis of conversation has shifted, at long last.
