All of the things you listed (with the exception of Civil Rights) are problems facing America as a nation, not problems with America as a nation. Alot...
Well Trump's gonna contest the results in with his 6-3 SCOTUS and hopes they're as eager to dismantle democracy as he is. If enough people think he ac...
Pretty much. As a guy who is all about optics, Trump wants to control the narrative and thinks that if he just proclaims victory enough, people would ...
I guess one bright spot in all of this is that even if Biden wins the establishment Dems can no longer claim that Trump is some sort of anomaly and th...
I think NC is still in play and may be more likely than PA (which is looking good for Biden as well), but apparently some people are writing it off. S...
Pretty sure all eyes are still on PA at this point, but if Biden wins AZ, GA, or NV then it would end early. WI is called for Biden and MI is looking ...
You're right that Biden or Trump winning would just maintain the broken status quo. Disagree with climate change though since that's a global problem ...
Not too sure about that. Given the current economic situation and the fact that any sort of huge stimulus is pretty much dead, along with the likeliho...
I don't know if I care much anymore to be honest (despite constantly refreshing the results every few moments). I'm sort of prepared for either outcom...
Biden is likely gonna win NV, AZ, WI, and MI, which is enough to put him over the top with GA and PA as possible toss ups, though there will likely be...
At this point it looks like Biden is winning NV, WI, AZ, and MI which should be enough to put him over 270. These races are close though so we're in l...
I know I'm probably touching on some 2016 nerves here, but Bernie probably would've done better where Biden failed. The reason why the election is so ...
It's looking like a reverse 2016 right now with Biden narrowly winning the rust belt and possibly Georgia. Expect riots and a court challenge which ma...
And we will likely see increased public unrest no matter which way those votes fall. Also soon the SCOTUS will dismantle the ACA in the middle of an o...
It shows how much they are willing to put up with to own the other side. Trump literally left his supporters out in the cold but they were still going...
Biden is more likely than not to win since he's favored in the rust belt, but it's close which just shows how much the American people are willing to ...
Whether or not Biden or Trump wins, the result is gonna be alot closer than people expected and that's a bad sign for the US as a country going forwar...
Whether or not Biden or Trump wins it doesn't look like any party is gonna win a trifecta in congress, which means gridlock and no stimulus in the mid...
About 30% of them clearly don't apparently. Though ironically enough with the early in person voting and Texas limiting mail ballot drop offs to one l...
My eye is more on Texas. The early turnout data has been insane there, surpassing the 2016 numbers already and nearly all being concentrated on the bl...
I'm not all that familiar with European politics so I'll take your word on that. Also I don't really disagree on the need to address the social media ...
Social media exists in all countries (except North Korea), but we don't see the same kind of polarization in the US as in places like the UK or Canada...
He'll probably lose then because though the GOP are willing to put up with alot, they'll not tolerate a loser. Just look at Roy Moore for instance. Sp...
Just wait until 2024 when the GOP somehow nominates a candidate who's even worse than Trump. I mean we all thought that Bush was the worst they can of...
They honestly think that they can make this into the next Clinton email scandal. Unfortunately given the pandemic, the economic crash, and the social ...
Given the many different ways one can define "experience", no. The question is whether the things our ideas are referring to can't be irreducible if t...
Why is that? Are you suggesting that everything in the distant past was reducible just because they predated conscious beings like us? I'm not sure I ...
A computer program is a set of logical operations as far as our understanding goes. It's easy to see how those operations can be conducted by a medium...
Not really cause even if I didn't know how a car works, I can conceive of it being broken down into elements that I don't know about right now. The th...
Elementary particles, the fundamental forces of nature, space, time, etc. Anything that we take to be basic in our models is by definition irreducible...
Of course Strawson would take issue with you about that, but I'll leave that for you two to work out. I don't think that Strawson is saying that consc...
I think you're misrepresenting Strawson's position a number of ways here. For one, Strawson is a self-described monist and a physicalist, just of a pa...
I'll assure you that the GOP will Benghazi the living hell out of this for the next 4 years. Anyways, the COVID death toll is currently sitting at 555...
So people should be impeached and kicked out of office if they obstructed justice? Also, since we're on the topic of lying under oath, should any publ...
I never said impeach Giuliani. I was just reminiscing about the time where another public figure had consensual sex with a 25 year old (and yeah, she ...
Yeah, I mean it's not like anyone was impeached for that or anything... I can't wait for the GOP to go back to complaining about that kind of stuff th...
Right now, people are too concerned with the pandemic and the economy crashing that they don't give a damn about what Hunter Biden did in another coun...
For alot of people, yeah it was. Trump was able to fool undecided voters with his outsider status and make them take a gamble on him. Although Hillary...
He's not in the same category as Trump. More in the same category of being an establishment politician like Hillary Clinton, except without the toxic ...
No, Trump really is stupid and everything that he's said and done in these past 4 years demonstrates that quite well. In spite of what he keeps saying...
