I'd love to know the source on that, thanks.

So what, you're admitting it's not a race issue but an education issue?

It's a great way to divide people though.

Xer here. If by joke you mean it's brainwashing and propaganda, I'm with you. A joke, randomly oriented, I could take, the one sided preaching that news, TV and movie broadcast 24x7 is just infuriating.

Wait a minute, do you think that could ever happen? That'd be shocking!

It's systematic and coordinated at this point: they will do whatever it takes to protect themselves, and their lords, against the little guy trying to make some money without them taking the lion's share.

Who's "they" is an interesting and debatable question, big tech, the finance sector, the gov, whoever else, but one thing for sure, we're the peasants in that story.

> The Republican party (vs "conservatism") is in a slow and gradual decline.

Or is it america, especially the younger generation, that is gradually becoming more leftist?

Realize that this movement you see could be due to your own displacement.

The patient was sick before Trump, it will continue to be sick after he's gone (maybe even sicker).

So yeah, good luck believing the problem is behind.

They can suspend whoever they want, that won't make the 70 millions people who voted for him, and the reasons why they voted for him disappear.

Hiding the thermometer doesn't make the fever go away.

alea_iacta_est··on Hard Data on Remdesivir, and on Hydroxychlorquine
You too are talking out of your bottom. HCQ is given in prevention to millions on people every year, used as cure for many sicknesses, here in the US and all over the world. In 60 years, it's been given to more than a billion people.

Please, stick to what you know and leave medicine to specialists.

Wikipedia doesn't make you a doctor.

You don't know what you're talking about.

HCQ has been used for 60 years for malaria, lupus and autoimmune diseases.

> Humans left Africa and began dispersing throughout the world at least 120,000 years ago, but the genetic isopoint occurred much more recently—somewhere between 5300 and 2200 B.C., according to Rohde’s calculations.

> I'm pretty sure there are a lot of us, but I have no way of knowing for sure

Just created a new account just to tell you we're at least 2 conservatives in tech. Pretty sure I'll get angry and abandon this account very soon again because of the liberal bias here, and their adoration for the downvote button, but whatever, anything for a conservative colleague :)

> There should be a term for "liberal privilege" when you're able to post your political views under your real name.

They can post under their real name, doesn't mean it's not gonna cost them someday for a future job or who knows what, karma works in complex ways.
