    You need to be choosier with whom you call a "friend". There's no saving people who are in that deep.

      I think they have become so sophisticated in their ability to predict who will run and annihilate their character that even if someone was an angel they would look bad. I wasn't necessarily a fan of Hillary but if you fact checked what they were selling- from the time she was first lady- you would find that many of the things you believed about her would be wrong. You say something enough times and people begin to believe it is true. They have a whole algorithm that feeds on itself to spread what they want- start with the little blogs who quote each other until there are enough of them the bigger outlets quote it as fact. True for both sides. Many of the politician are real skanks but not all of them are horrible. A fair number of them start out wanting to make a difference except now, with the nutbags blackballing anyone who compromises, they can't
      Which is why Trumpy keeps talking about how everyone says he did such a great job with the hurricane relief, how so many people are saying its going so well. Might be true, might not be, but that's all his followers hear, and that's what they believe. Puerto Rico is a paradise, all because of Donnie.

We all differ on normative judgments so that's not interesting. There is a spectrum of judgments and the ability to reason that runs from the simple and empirically obvious to the subtle and highly complex (analytic a priori to synthetic a posteriori, Kant would say) and we all fall somewhere on it.

        A longitudinal study would be even better. Have these people always been subrational, and politics is just something that gets balled up in it, or does the constant repetition of irrational influences on the internet actually remove people's rationality? Does anybody remember, for example, Flag being more rational back in the day?

        This is fascinating. You should, gently, study her.
        I don't think there is any doubt it does. I've observed in a few people I know that they buy certain lines of thinking way more than is normal. I think people looking at their phones all the time is probably messing up a lot of brains too.

          Those parts aren't the real Texas and Florida. Trumpy don't care about them, either.

            In response to Scarlet's friend...seems a bit off the deep end to me. But, I wouldn't be surprised if this guy wasn't acting alone, and he had some other interest backing him. Do I think it is some government conspiracy like was suggested, **** no. It is just not out the realm of possibility that this guy was acting as an agent of some kind of nefarious group, some domestic terror group. Similar to the OKC bombing.

              Apparently Trump is calling NBC fake news for reporting the Tillerson story where Tillerson called Trump a moron. Tillerson did not deny calling him a moron this morning, yet, somehow Trump went to Twitter to call NBC fake news and worse than CNN. You know CNN. The network he clotheslined in a video on Twitter.

                Not only are they doing a great job but there is enough of everything and the Mayor of San Juan is a leftist Librul evil slug a bed. My nutbag rabidly right FB friends are posting like machine guns- share after share.

                NPR had a really cool program on the latest research re advent of smart phones- way more depression than before- even when they tease out all the other possible variables. Being able to see just how stupid a large portion of the population is and all the twisted normalization of the sociopath can't be helping.

                          Swing and a miss. http://www.politicususa.com/2017/10/...o-he-10th.html

                          Trump bragged to reporters that people of Puerto Rico appreciated him being there and that he was the first president in history to make such a visit when he was the tenth.

                          During a gaggle with reporters aboard Air Force One, Trump said, “I think it meant a lot to the people of Puerto Rico that I was there. They really responded very nicely. And I guess it’s one of the few times anybody has done this. From what I am hearing it’s the first time that a sitting president has done something like this”.

                          Admittedly, his something like this description of the visit is vague. It could mean virtually anything, but it appears that Trump believes that he is the first president to visit Puerto Rico/.

                          Trump is wrong. He isn’t the first president to visit Puerto Rico. He isn’t even the ninth.

                          Teddy Roosevelt, Herbert Hoover, Franklin D. Roosevelt, John F. Kennedy, and Barack Obama all made official visits before Trump. Dwight Eisenhower, Harry Truman, Lyndon Johnson, and Gerald Ford all made unofficial visits to Puerto Rico.
