Perez and Huber's "Visualizing Everyday Racism" contains almost the perfect microcosm for so much of what is wrong with CRT. It is staggeringly stupid, and, evidently, peer-reviewed. (1/🧵, but the link covers it as well). @ashleybrookslawrence/the-perfect-microcosm-for-all-that-is-wrong-with-crt-389528f2e884" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">medium.com/@ashleybrooksl

I resubmit my compromise on the EC. It decides elections unless the national popular vote exceeds 60%. Gives naked majoritarianism a chance, but still allows slim minorities the occasional chance.

People defend the Electoral College for the same reason they defend pumpkin pie on Thanksgiving: tradition. But tradition is no reason to keep two things that are bad for America.

There's no good civic argument for the electoral college. It was arguably necessary to ensure the ratification of the Constitution, but it's an anti-democratic device that gives some American citizens far more voting power than others, based purely on where they live.

Which you just know they won’t do the moment it benefits a democrat. I am stalwart pro-EC! I celebrate that day eagerly!

That said, I would be open to add a popular vote override. Say 60% of the popular vote. This encourages more voting nationwide! Even in decided states! And it keeps leftists from whining all the damn time.

The electoral college is one of the most ingenious inventions of the constitutions. Utterly brilliant, and has worked beautifully as functioned. The popular vote *generally* wins; however in close elections, the chance for a slim minority to win is an incredible element.

@DiggingInTheDi1 @xwanyex Wealth is generated in one way: something is made or done *for someone else* such that they would trade something they’ve *made or do* for that thing. That’s really it. Wealth is merely “I have made or done a lot of things that others desire.”

The rare few intelligent Communists also simply make the mistake of not understanding how wealth is generated Much like a person who quits their job to live off of $50,000 worth of savings, the communist doesn't understand that ending the engine of production will eventually cause a shortfall

I’m very offered a very similar explanation on here many times! The fact is that enough people defect under communism that in order to make it work you have to become increasingly authoritarian, which of course pushes more people away. Communism is the ultimate, “if everyone would just.” But since everyone isn’t going to “just,” you either have to tolerate some of the people in society developing an alternative, illegal market economy, or you have to force people to do what you want, even though some of them really, really don’t like it.

@dannycantalk That doesn't explain why some states should have more voting power than others relative to their size.

@CTMathewes @benryanwriter @Woke_Ass_Person None of you are even trying to rebut the facts, because you can’t. It was an objective economic and human catastrophe - and didn’t make the world safer either! Go through my points. Try to rebut them factually. See how far you get.

Correction: Neither Hasan Piker nor Owen Jones said that the fall of the USSR was the greatest geopolitical disaster of the 20th century. Jones said the things in the post in the thread.
Owen Jones@owenjonesjourno

@benryanwriter This is a lie. Neither of us said this. Pathetic.

Why is it wrong for two people to have sex in their own bedroom? And if you say “religion,” this is one more reason I’m glad I’m not religious.

@aGuyOnMyPhone @HistoryBoomer @JonHaidt We build rationales after a moral disgust response, and where we get disgusted is a personal line to draw in the sand. That doesn’t mean every line is equal and that there isn’t a right or wrong one… But it’s certainly not obvious and far from proven where it lies.

@aGuyOnMyPhone @HistoryBoomer @JonHaidt That’s totally fair, but many sexual conservatives say that about homosexuality as well. The whole point of this question isn’t to convince anyone that incest is okay, it’s to get people to realize their reasoning…ain’t all that different from the Bible thumpers.

@Woke_Ass_Person @HistoryBoomer @JonHaidt My point is that incest is a totally separate and unrelated issue. There is nothing inherent to the logic of rejecting conservative Christian sexual ethics vis-a-vis homosexuality that in any way implicates other sexual acts like rape or incest

@Woke_Ass_Person @HistoryBoomer @JonHaidt If I say “the non procreative nature of gay sex does not make it wrong” that does not mean I’m saying all non procreative sex is good. Just that if it is wrong, it is not because it is not procreative. I’m debunking a singular affirmative argument.
