    Other people don’t? It is a separate entity in many ways, from my understanding there are portions of the brain that react much more like an organ than what we perceive as our “consciousness.”. I was actually taught to separate myself from my brain the “organ” and how it responds to situations differently than I would prefer haha








  • This is highly unlikely to cause a statistically significant difference in the polls. Having this strong of a view point on the matter is largely isolated to a specific demographic of younger, progressive voters, who are notoriously difficult to reach and accurately account for via traditional polling methods.

    It registers as the 15th most important issue via a Gallup poll, and that doesn’t account for which “side” the individuals polled support.

    Of the 30% of the population saying it is an “extremely important issue,” it gives no indication of what their desired resolution is.

    On the extreme end of the spectrum, consider that 30% of our nation is in a death cult that believes Israel plays a role in their eventual salvation, not to mention how many people are blatantly racist and view anyone with darker skin as a terrorist.

    I am registered, politically active, not difficult to locate and have had the same phone number for 20 years, yet, I MIGHT have been polled once in that time!

    This isn’t to say there aren’t those who are doing as they say, but it is not likely to move polls one way or another.

    Excellent comment, I frequently bring this concept to others attention when the term “colonizer” is used.

    Arbitrary and selective use of the term to fit a specific narrative detracts from current day realities.

    Somehow people seem to have forgotten that times of peace and respect for manmade borders and laws of sovereign nations are not the norm for history.




  • Assuming this isn’t an attempt at trolling, Trump ran up the deficit nearly double that of Biden. Given that the argument is generally government spending leads to inflation, how exactly would that not indicate who is more responsible for inflationary costs?
