I came to the USA through adoption in 1965, and I was the only non-white person in my town. I was called 'chink,' 'gook,' 'slant eyes,' etc. Racism is nothing new to me, and those names no longer have the power they used to; however, I will never tolerate it towards other people.
You R talking about diehard “he says what I’m thinking” MAGAs, who get a ton of press quoting them saying it. Seems most ppl believe ALLL T voters are like that. Not everyone just hears what they want to believe. See @brainwashingdad.bsky.social 's film about her Dad being brainwashed by RWng media
everyone avoids this. We The People can not see the blind spot: Jen Senko, Baby Boomer who stood up!!! The crisis is incredibly deep into hearts and minds warfare. Jen Senko should be a household name of hero rescue.
well hey now, @jesscraven101.bsky.social mentioned Fixed Noise propaganda and "brainwashing" so we absolutely must make sure Jess is connected to @jensenko.bsky.social @brainwashingdad.bsky.social moving on.
For some ppl, yes. Others are conned. Look at @brainwashingdad.bsky.social 's film. RWngers do not spend billions to buy up media/SMedia--much of which doesn't make much profit--just to tell ppl what they already believe. They do it to deceive. Even many libs are connned by "both sides" disinfo.

Help the USA DETOX FROM FOX! The Fox-Trump love affair has hit a rocky patch! Fox is scrambling to keep its audience by – ready? – telling TRUTHS! Fox hosts have admitted: Trump is losing his Iran war, skyrocketing gas prices, his tariffs, his sewer-low poll numbers JOIN US!

Phew! I wanted to learn about why are Americans like this? I found this great doc, it was on Prime or Netflix at the time, back in 2017. @brainwashingdad.bsky.social It really helped clarify A LOT for me. You'll most likely learn a lot from it as well.

I submitted a short article to the NIH call for information about adding metrics to judge science (🤮🤮🤮 for all the reasons in the book plus Goodhart’s law plus metrics measure only commoditized, non-creative work). I will post a version of that this week if people are interested.
Responding to overall thread more than this post - for those not already aware, I think The Score by C Thi Nguyen helps explain part of this drive to remove qualitative assessment from measurement of many aspects of human performance.

If Median Strategies turns out to be a deception effort to manipulate prediction markets, we have been here before. After Black Monday and the 1929 stock market crash Congress enacted laws to stop deception, fraud and insider trading. Unregulated prediction markets are speed running us to 1929

“I am bracing for something bad to happen… It’s hard to pile up all this risk, then for all of it to come to nothing: landmines avoided until a Democratic administration takes over and clears all of them. The odds of that strike me as dim.” I share @brianbeutler.bsky.social ‘s feeling

"I'm not remotely qualified to be a United States Senator" is never a good debate answer for someone running to be a United States Senator.
Darlene Graham just bumbled through one of the worst responses to a question during a political debate you'll ever see
