i still want to know what the point of that brownies picture is but at the same time milkster posted it so if there is something dumb going on there I probably don’t want to know

Oh snap I just realized new Assassin’s Creed dropping on the 10th, for some reason I thought it was later than that. Fuck yeah.
maybe. i think this is actually one point where the concern about BG being an echo chamber is warranted: all of us are relatively smart people with a tolerably good basic education- any of us who may have had fundamental gaps have had years to have that corrected by the rest of us. We're generally well-read, and if we're not, we expose ourselves to the viewpoints of people who are. BG is, for all intents and purposes, a forum of well-educated liberals. even our true conservatives, like maroo, are educated well above the norm.
so any thought that the race shouldn't be this close is rooted, i think, in that echo chamber. normal people don't follow politics- they have it handed to them by whatever media they watch. they pick up snippets here and there, and use it to validate their opinion. they're often single-issue voters who don't care to investigate that single issue in depth. in short: they're easily manipulated, but not easy to persuade.
the GOP (and trump and his cronies) are incredibly good at social engineering, but not at persuasion. and the fundamental ideal of our system is that people must be persuaded to your viewpoint; that's what the dems have been doing and it's the reason they've consistently done so terribly. the GOP isn't playing that game anymore.
that's still well-read by the standards of the country as a whole, which is what i was getting at.
