Elon's path may not be the best path to popularity.

If Zuck wants popularity, maybe a good way to go about that would be to de-shittify Facebook, Instagram, and so forth so that those platforms respect their users.

But then the income would drop and his yacht may be found capsized!!

I'd vote for him over most of the recent candidates

Why, does PRISM need a more direct funnel to the data spigot?

No, because he's only old enough to be my parent rather than my great grandparent.

Kamala is 59. Is there a problem with 59?

She's still older than average (which is 55 yrs): https://potus.com/presidential-facts/age-at-inauguration/

I don't think that age is everything, but I feel like it is a significant factor.

At the very least, it is very frustrating as a younger person that the vast majority of our lawmakers are _very_ old. This has (historically, but not recently) been more of a problem with congress: https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/aging-congress-boomers/

As a (just) boomer, I'd be in favor of having the voting age lowered to 16. Certainly there are many reckless, feckless and uninformed 16 year olds, but the standard of debate coming from the seniors in the room is horrifying and needs to be diluted by the people who have the biggest stake in our planet's future.

This is happening in the UK. It was in Labour’s manifesto (and they were recently elected)

Why would lowering to 16 from 18 make a difference? Plenty of data out there shows that age demographic is the least likely to show up on election day and vote.

Perhaps then the ones that did take the trouble to vote would be well informed and thoughtful.

There is some evidence getting people to vote earlier results in them being more consistent voters over time. And they would potentially be fresh off a civics class.

That's interesting. I'll have to dig into this.

Ah but according to this average, Zuckerberg is too young.

Then vote for Chase Oliver. Not saying that you wouldn't, it's just if you're going to be talking about political hypotheticals, there are still actual alternatives to pulling the lever for Zuckerberg.

But what he said is true? The Whitehouse pressured Facebook to remove or reduce visibility of politically inconvenient facts?

That seems like the issue here, but nobody seems to care.
