For better or worse, people like that are electorally important. Only about 12% of voters are true swing voters, but Biden won by 5% in 2020 and smaller margins in individual states, so if you are losing the bulk of that 12%, then that is a problem. It's also one of those situations where it is hard to get non-political people to give detailed assessments about politics, but non-political people are also the majority of voters and it's a lot more informative to dig deeper into peoples' beliefs than to just have them answer "Yes" or "No" on a poll. It's hard to get people to verbalize their issues and their perceived sources of them, so it's interesting to just let people free flow about their beliefs. They don't have to be smart, correct, or even coherent. But, it is interesting to just get it from the horse's mouth without a filter.

The first one obviously didn't happen, and as far as the article can tell, the second didn't either.

I've heard of unconscious bias before, it's hardly a new concept, my point is that I don't understand it because it doesn't make much sense. How does one have an unconscious belief? I think that the phenomenon being described is something that people consciously experience: you consciously experience having a negative emotional reaction, or predicting whatever negative behavior, and then suppress those feelings because you believe they're racist or whatever is applicable to your reaction. The "unconscious belief" is really a prediction of what to expect based on previous experiences.

I can’t believe the Bad Thread has spent over 24 hours of the regulars making GBS threads themselves and rolling in it, while the only mod active so is laser-focused on shutting down Tara Reade chat they didn’t realize public threats after a single on-topic post would just Streisand Effect the whole thing. Now that we’re in day two, they’re posting “oooo, wait until Dad gets home!! ” at all mentions of Reade while allowing the rest of the thread to stay derailed oh wait no, of course I can believe that, it would be dumb to expect anything but

Smythe posted:i just finished reading habermas The Structural Transformation of the Public Sphere for class and one thing that stood out to me was the concept that industrial capitalism killed reading and drinking groups and stuff, and then extrapolating from that the og parties were just overgrown squads of bros who chilled out, talked politics, and grouped up to push policies they wanted based on their own political philosphy. once capitalism killed the roots of the party the actual driving power within them was hollowed out and they were easily subverted by the forces of capital into yet another tool of capitalist power and wealth accumulation. Reminder that the “moral outrage” Prohibition was enacted to end wasn’t alcohol like you were probably taught, but that too many ETHNICS were gathering in pubs and talking to each other and getting ideas like “forming unions” and “organizing as a political bloc opposed to their treatment as second-class citizens” America has always been racist and awful, and you’re carrying decades of unexamined propaganda if you were raised there
