Progressives will scream in your face, and conservatives are aiming guns at them. Sounds rather expressive.

Sounds like it’s more of a range than black and white. Some conservatives and progressives have always been quiet.

People from both sides of the political divide have lost their job.

Do we need to run the list of political positions that the GOP holds that would hardly be called conservative? Drill baby drill?

Incongruity between rhetoric and behavior is pretty obvious.

Perhaps that the national party you support has kids in cages, suspended Habeus corpus under GW, and is at least in part carrying on about overturning an election plays into the view?

Barr is the one who said whoever wins gets to write the rules. I wonder if politicians are simply using words as a political tool.

Yeah my response to Marc Andreessen on what we should build:

A tax system like the one that lifted the families of these rich trolls before they lobbied to tear it all down.

Watch us make tons of money off technology that was initially funded by government because the rich, as usual, didn’t want to invest in it themselves.

IBM got gifted what would today be billions in handouts by being the only seller of machines produced originally by taxes.

It’s a mathematical fact how that all shook out for that entire generation: benefited immensely from government socialism. Then lobbied to take it away from the next generation, acting instead like a grifting middle man on their agency.

Let’s build a world that does that handout shit for everyone.

Do we build iPhone because of markets or because holy shit this is cool?

Fuck these outdated semantics for what we do shit. These guys aren’t gods.
