Well, one deportation is too many I dunno what to tell you. I use that site for physics news, but they have a social sciences section that usually comes off even-handed. Maybe it's a buncha bullshit.

I'm sure you do, which helps my overall theory that the left and right both ultimately have an issue with corruption, we just call it by different names.

When the left says 'Capitalism bad', they're referring to the worst aspects of it...the corruption.

When the right says 'Government bad', they're referring to the worst aspects of it...the corruption.
I agree. I just fail to see how you and the other liberals think exclusively supporting the right yields any kind of solution to the corruption

Accelerationism?

What's the purpose of pointing out that Obama's 8 year number was bigger than Tromp's 2 year number?

I didn't write any articles but I would do so to point out that Democrats are just as right-wing as the Republicans they claim to oppose.

I want better options. I don't care which party shatters first, or both of them, but until that happens I think we're pretty much stuck in this 'choose between two evil old men' cycle.

Obama was a Republican. He had the lowest interest rates in a long ass time and didn’t invest. We’re having infrastructure debates / CHIPs subsidies whatever nonsense (not bad ideas) but it would’ve been way cheaper to finance during the financial crisis, would’ve helped a bad economy and got us out of that crisis more quickly and would’ve been cheaper in the long run. One problem with our system is we don’t plan things long run very well

Look at the Chinese response to the financial crisis. They had no recession. Granted a lot of their growth is real estate that is nothing more than a bubble, but still

Politics is about priorities.

I don't know why I prioritize things differently than you, but I do.

If the Left collectively agreed to work on removing the "corruption" that we both despise at the same time, I'd cooperate as soon as possible.

But the real world is a cruel bitch, and that will never happen because both sides have trust issues (probably for valid reasons).

You’re rather lucid this evening. I actually agree with you
