The left champions the weak and downtrodden even if it means chaos. The right values order and stability even if at the expense of those at the bottom. I don't think either side is against compromise but first each side has to see wher

It's good point. Now that the dems have the exec, house and senate, who are they going to blame for everything?

Don't forget that the US gov itself is also propped up by mass belief. Its authority rests in the people. Now you might say "actually its authority rests on people with guns", but that's only to the extent that the peopl

I agree with you. I would go so far as to say that the Conservatives are to the left of the Democrats, even economically. Look at the extent of public borrowing funding all the furlough schemes etc. Not to mention both Labour and Tories are

Both fiat currency and Bitcoin are backed by the same thing: mass belief. An incredibly powerful thing.

That's good then.

There is no reason it can't all be done on-device. That is indeed how the current "Enable camera access?" etc. system works.

I have some sympathy with you, because national politics has seemingly become more and more ideological lately, but politics does not necessarily imply ideology. The word politics in its general form simply refers to the ways people organis

Just FWIW, the Scout Association in the UK was renamed from "Boy Scouts Association" 1967 and began to admit girls in 1976.

In the pre-satnav days I would consult a road atlas before the trip, and note the roads, turnings and principal destinations on a piece of paper. e.g. M1 North to J21 for M69 South M69 South to J2 onto A5 North A5 North for 11 miles to Tamw

Yeah it's not like the Democrats to do something like that. I certainly don't remember them spending three years and hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars pursuing an an investigation alleging Trump colluded with Russia to win

My grandmother had severe arthritis and her fingers lacked the fine control needed to set her watch. So she simply kept it set to the same time zone all year round and made a mental note to subtract one hour for half the year.
