This is true too. And the majority of Facebook users I know unfollow people who post political topics. It is about the circles.

I think this is an important point indeed. A piece of this puzzle, in my opinion, is that people are not taught this at home anymore. Most familes have both parents working full time and they're exhausted after work. Their kids are rai

The hypothetical "most people" in this statement would be dreadfully, dreadfully wrong if they think it would all turn out fine. They are vastly under estimating how much the modern world, in literally almost any aspect you can im

This post should not be downvoted. These are legitimate concerns for half the US population. Whoever is poo-pooing this may disagree with these lies presented above. But again, you have half the US population who really DOES have a problem

And it's a damning realization at that. Nevertheless, it seems to be true. How do we maintain the emphasis on free speech with our higher fragmented population who have WIDELY varying beliefs and little shared culture?

All of this is correct. Many on the left seem forcibly unable to view the nuance described here. Freedom of choice is an American value that doesn't exist anywhere else in the world to the degree that it does here. Freedom to decide wh

This is precisely correct. As someone who was vaccine hesitant, I ended up getting the J&J but felt like a full 20 hours a week part time job to try to parse what was actually true. Fauci, the CDC, the WHO; all of the communications fro

Did the US really force it to pick up a shitty monetary policy? I love this phrase you've crafted. If only we could force China into picking up, like... no less than 14 shitty monetary policies.....

The probability being very different argument above is based in massaged data; data fit to a narrative. The narrative wants you to trust it and set aside such petty questioning! "The science" will prevail! The elites no better! Ho

All of these are reasonable arguments. I personally agree with them. I am vaccinated (J&J), and was vaccine hesitant for 6 months prior to making my decision. I still stand far more in unity with the anti-vaccination camp than those ask

Your first paragraph is correct, but you seem to think it's a problem that people might choose to be naturally infected. That's a valid choice people can make. I believe most people who aren't vaccinated are doing so on purpo
