Just FYI @spy , the WSJ is owned by Rupert Murdoch's News Corp. The author is not "lots of people", he is a very specific people. https://americafirstpolicy.com/initiatives
So, you play the Heather Cox Richardson card and I call a Mulligan. Big deal. Why is Richardson right and Mulligan wrong? He's a PhD too. But that's beside the point... ...this is where we are, lol. It would seem circumstances are going to dictate the outcome of 2024, as they did in 2020. Trump lost 2020 because of COVID and could very well win 2024 because Kammy doesn't understand money. For this reason IDK why you're advocating for Kamala??!? When the car is in a ditch the driver gets the blame. The Dems were driving for 4 years. I'm not saying it's right or wrong. I'm not saying Trump will win. I'm just wondering why you're so adamant that Kamala is a heroine protagonist instead of just another cold-blooded politician. Well, I know you have your reasons they just don't seem to make sense to me.
Kamala understands money. This is why Trump has launched his birth/burger-ism campaign to say she never worked at McDonald's. Trump's plague was not merely an unfortunate happenstance, it unfolded as a direct consequence of his terrible choices. And something bad would happen again.
Lol, sure. What she understands is how to transfer other people's money around for her own benefit... maybe. We'll find out sometime after 11/5. You can't say this while at the same time argue that Kamala played no part in the inflation debacle. That's pure hypocrisy. I guess there's no point in continuing the discussion though. You are highly partisan.
Don't worry, you won't have to go through that finding out as if you were very good at recognising when you are wrong, we would not be having this chat. You will be wrong and it will just go over your tribe's head. Take comfort. From a technicrat-ish perspective, I believe that people who lock into Randian philosophy and shit as adults have functional issues in at least these three areas: Dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC), is crucial for executive functions like self-monitoring, decision-making, and error recognition. If this region is underactive or impaired, individuals may have a harder time recognising mistakes and adjusting their behavior. This impairs metacognition, or the ability to think about one's own thinking. Anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) plays a key role in detecting conflicts between expected and actual outcomes, essentially signaling when we’ve made an error. If this mechanism is weakened or less active, individuals may not properly perceive their mistakes. This can lead to overconfidence, where people believe they are right even when evidence suggests otherwise. Such overconfidence can inhibit learning. Dopaminergic System and Reward Processing: The brain's reward system, particularly the dopaminergic pathways, influences how we respond to feedback. A healthy feedback loop reinforces learning from mistakes by rewarding correct behaviors. However, if someone’s brain is more focused on immediate rewards or has diminished sensitivity to negative feedback (due to imbalances in neurotransmitters like dopamine), they may fail to adjust their behavior in response to errors.
You're reaching new lows now. What exactly will I be wrong about? Keeping an open mind? You're reaching new lows now.
Lol. There are people who don't agree or think exactly like you Tux, it's not that bad... you'll get over it and live happily ever after.
