What are your thoughts on the likelihood of success of the push from the right to implement minority control in US politics? If successful, this could have large consequences.

- themodelplumber 5y agoIt takes me out of my big-picture wheelhouse, so I personally find it harder (because less energy-yielding/interesting) to follow this kind of thing. I definitely noticed how much the US right began to project a mighty image in the last couple decades, the imagery and storytelling of which took on a rather fantastic, near-pornographic character. In off-the-cuff analyses of its storytellers' psychology, I found that they were uniformly less depth-oriented than impact-oriented. To me this is almost never good news in terms of actual might. I could also see a massive return to centrism as the human-group organism feels around for equilibrium. Really spitballin' here though. Sorry I can't really speculate in more precise terms on that issue.
