lol the fl 5th district there has had some interesting legal challenges. the state was sued over it with the argument that it was designed to be favorable to republicans by putting large black areas into a single district. the black democratic caucus then complained that changing it would disenfranchise black voters and complained about the party's support for the lawsuit and is claiming they'll take it to the scotus. the head of the redistricting committee, a republican is just like "heh heh yeah"

Sagebrush posted:This is the same Facebook that literally ran studies to see if they could change people's emotional state by presenting them with different news stories, right The effect size on that study was laughable, something like d=0.001 where 0.2 is conventionally considered small. The paper said it could influence things on scale but it reads like facebook facesaving.

Terrible Opinions posted:America would not have elected a woman. Period. if you think for a second you'll realize that this isn't a very good argument that bernie was electable despite being jewish Shifty Pony posted:I'm not saying that both are the same because between the two options the second one is vastly more fair than the first, but neither are objectively fair in any meaningful way and both parties are having to deal with their base not being happy about it. except one of those parties is ideologically committed to that policy while the other is largely willing to go much further but couldn't even pass the shittiest most market driven version of universal healthcare without apocalyptic pushback from the right. and many dems are pussies stuck in that 80s and 90s era centrist survival mode. but my whole point is that the "gently caress the poor" party just got hijacked by a guy who explicitly campaigned on strong government intervention to improve the lives of the working class. maybe, just maybe, there is growing room for stronger social welfare programs across the country. the real problem is finding a way to sell it to blue collar whites without a coating of racism and xenophobia implicitly signaling "its ok, this isn't welfare for those people"

the liberals current plan is to send out a "household survey" about electoral reform. i'm hoping they don't go to referendum and i'm hoping they leave status quo off of that survey. it is a good opportunity to average morons like us yospossers to actually make a difference and educate your friends and family and poo poo.

even if you don't think facebook had an impact in the election (which is completely and utterly insane) you'd think he have something to say about completely fake news stories from fake news sites gaming facebook and getting a billion shares. but it's just like twitter and harassers, if they get rid of it their engagement and user numbers take a nosedive

i got a 32, and the description is pretty accurate for my situation. dad was a doctor but before that he was a river guide in rural pennsylvania. i was in the boy scouts and did a lot of traditional rural things. i have been to branson, missouri the most surprising thing to me is that my tastes in TV are apparently suuuuuuuuper elitist cause i had never even heard of most of those TV shows (i'd seen almost all the movies tho)

I see maybe one movie a year and the only TV I watch is How It's Made, PBS, and sports, so that makes me a mega-elitist I guess.
