Great news: the USA’s best scientists and researchers have teamed up, and are, this very moment, toiling away in a lab in order to discover what the fuck our problem is.

Easy, a large part of your country, learned nothing about history, democracy and politics. Most of the USA didn't knew about the Tulsa massacre until they saw a TV show talking about it. That's why you like fascism so much.
Because USA was built in genocide, and white supremacy.
There are too many republicans & democrats. Republicans believe in individual Liberties, even at the expense of the community. Democrats believe in community even at the expense of individual Liberties. AMERICANS support BOTH. We need more Americans & considerably less democrats & republicans.
What do you mean 'republicans believe in individual liberties'? They're the ones banning abortion. They also wanna ban pornography, then classify everything LGBTQ as pornography. They are the party of stripping away liberties, which was clear since before Dobbs.
They believe in individual Liberties as long as it's for them and those they support. Nothing's going to change the fact that they don't support individual Liberties for women, transgenders & people of color. You can't argue that they give a shit about community. It's very obvious they don't.
Repubs do not believe in indiv rights if that right conflicts w some dumbass idea they get in their heads. Years back, it was limit gun ownership becoz blacks might get hold of them. Then when gun makers realized they cldnt make $ that way, they scared a bunch of whites into buying 20-30 guns each.
Actually thought this was heading towards "have teamed up and commenced a group skilled emigration application to a country that won't threaten to burn them for witchcraft"...
the movie Idiocracy was a prophecy and has come true way too soon.
i don't know if we should hail Mike Judge as a prophet or condemn him for giving them the idea?
America just voted to die younger. @realDonaldTrump is going to destroy Obama Care. Life expectancy, the best reason to have a publicly funded healthcare system. It is clear that there's no justification for private care other than greed or incompetence.
Just let this sink in.. In a pandemic, from whom would you like to have advice? From Dr. Dr. Dr. Dr. Jadad, physician, epidemiologist, philosopher, or a manager without medical background. Ontario, Canada.Selected the manager @cnn-brasil.bsky.social
Bad News: They’re all leaving the country because they actually can what with the highly skilled work they do and all. The rest of just have to hope for California and that everyone else isn’t thinking the same thing. FML.
Makes me think of a scene from Shin Godzilla that I will never forget. Gathered the best minds in Japan to do the very same and came out with the response: there is inconclusive data on what this is
but having said that, this is not to denounce science. which is extremely important for critical areas like health care, etc. but there's a need to know that sometimes you just need to take a different approach to things.
Yes. but my point is that there can be different ways to approach an issue via the scientific method too.
Shin Godzilla is another example of this. The scientists involved in dealing with the Kaiju were other scientists deemed heretics by the mainstream nationally recognised scientists.
A good chunk of our society is simply not tuned in to what is going on in the world, or our country. Plus I suspect that Bannon and Musk headed up an effort to microtarget people to ensure their social feeds always fed them garbage that made them angry and fearful.
Well, scientists, engineers, physicists, chemist, almost all major US universities and more are interested in space exploration rockets discoveries… and those working class Americans are not left behind buy a Tesla and ev’s, laptops and cell phones… and maybe the price of eggs will come down
Evil has no limits whereas goodness has limits…people who are evil are not bound by any rules…they have no rules…they ignore rules $ we have seen that play out hundreds of times in our lifetime…sadly.
Finally, someone who gets it! I've been telling my circle this for the past few days and they don't buy it. If we had a proper reconstruction the whole world would be a better place.
The 'morally correct' side won The Civil War but the racists won the country and just manipulated America more passively till Trump revealed how openly racist and sexist America is
You know what’s so sad? Is that we have that many uneducated people in this country. You can tell when a country is well educated; they’re the ones who have a great social network for their people, who make sure their citizens are well take care of…we just don’t care enough in the US. We’re young
The problem is politicians life hacking the human brain. Studies showed that the more people hear something repeated, regardless of its veracity, the more they are likely to believe it. Enter Fox "News" and the GOP echo chamber...
Once there was the phone. Then the magic of something in the hand, cell-phone. Oops, so clever we got the smart-phone. Now I call it the IDIOT-phone, though admittedly it allows doing a few good thing. I carefully keep the 2001 phone depend on others for the good. SO, THAT is our problem. Idiot-phn
The gop has been poking amygdalas for the last 40 years. They have perfected their technique of bypassing the frontal and pre frontal cortexes?...corteci?...cortecies?
Pretty simple to describe our problem, very difficult to fix it.
I haven't dug too deeply into my history but, as mentioned below, I would maybe argue for the lost cause being the origin. For simplicity's sake, I'm usually satisfied with the confluence of newt Gingrich, Roger ailes, Rupert Murdock, and a handful of others.
I lived through Nixon, so I remember. And honestly I think what we’re facing now is the fact that Rs who also lived through it figured out that if Nixon had brazened it out (as Roy Cohn would has suggested) they could have retained the presidency and continued the horrific things they meant to do.
They hated FDR’s reforms and every progressive impulse since then. They raised their families with that same greedy, corrupt, ignorant, coarse, racist & misogynistic belief system.
I agree completely. The way people are getting their information needs to change and it needs to change rapidly otherwise there is no way out of this. People with knowledge need to start driving people towards those with unbiased journalistic integrity.
Its ignorance. Willful ignorance at that. You can extrapolate just based on the surge in "What is a tariff" google search right after the election. They could've have done that research literally the day before and this would be a different rodeo.
Here on the other side of the world, I heard 3 different people make "this is what happens when you use lead for your water pipes" jokes the day after US elections
Naaaaahhhh couldnt be, i mean have you seen exit polls, its not like the majority of his voters are the generation that had the most lead or anything right
Yeah, nothing wrong with corruption and genocide as long as OUR guys are in bed with it.
Because something something "patriarchy".
This stupid, unthinking, bullshit, in lieu of class warfare, helped enable something WAY worse than "PaTriARChY", it's incoming, and you're still actually smug.
Elon is NOT for America. He has said that geopolitical boundaries should be removed, tech corporations should be exempt from taxes, and that the US military should be put under corporate control to assist with rare mineral acquisitions. So many crimes.. I used to worship him too but then I read.

The failure to recognize that America has always been a militaristic imperialist project

Their logic, human rights don't pay the bills.
Let’s see, oh, BAN vaccines even if people want/need them.
I could go on, but I’m getting sleepy. You get it.

We are steeped in it if you pay attention.

I think we also export Nissan cars, Harley Hogs, and Maytag dishwashers...
feeling to knowing.

A case can be made for earlier.
And here we are.

He lied on his app for citizenship, communicates with our enemies, and distributes anti-American propaganda.
