As a public school teacher, I didn't experience any negative side effects when Trump was president.
While I vote for Democrats, I only do so because they usually do more for the field of education. If Republicans were known for helping out education the most, then I'd have no problem voting for them.
Basically, I don't care who wins. They're all puppets in the end. |

and Mexico is done, socialists again turned a semi-functional country into a socialist dictatorship, they dismantled the judiciary branch and now they have total control of it, it was the last independent institution left, they militarized the country, dismantled the electorate institute, they have super majority in the house and senate, we are done.
If you think migration is a problem you have no clue whats coming, the exodus of Mexicans to the US will soon beging, I foresee very serious social tension in the US because of this.
Never vote left ppl, they will destroy your country like they did mine |

Politics is mostly about shifting society in a certain direction rather than voting homie. The obsession around voting is one of the most toxic ideologies in modern politics. But I mean its a slam dunk for Harris if I lived there. She is essentially like Biden-a vote against potential fascism at this point. I wouldn't really agree with much of her tax policy and the main thing is people need to be bought to justice for their tax evasion, then can go from there. People need to free themselves from their ideology on how taxes are government theft for society to start realizing the common good. Until that happens, rich people will always dominate and exploit us. |

I think the root of the issue is extremism bleeding into every facet of society. Doesn't matter which way it leans. Extremism is bat shit insane either way and highly damaging to society as a whole.
Social media has made that extreme ideology more mainstream and continues to give those loud minorities a voice. |

If you know anything about history, the politics at the centre gives way to extreme ideas over time. So extremist views are not necessarily a bad thing. I don't agree with a lot of current extreme positions, but its not true that extremism is always a bad thing. For example 70 years ago, communism, homosexuality, hysteria were both mental disorders in western society. Also Harvard professors thought you were a bit of a moron if you promoted theory of evolution, and they thought biology was so malleable that they tried to teach monkeys to speak english (lol!). Its always been true that the centre is extreme a few decades or centuries down the line.
Currently the political centre and/or the mainstream is completely insane. Universities have promoted luke-warmist climate change denial in the social sciences along the lines of 'we should implement at most a very small carbon tax and go no further on climate change'. Which has the consequence of destroying a large part of civilization; the Sahel region in Africa, India and Pacific Islands will cease to be civilized places by the end of the century because of that one belief that's been promoted. This centrist ideology has been used to legitimize inaction on climate change. So, to me the centre is batshit insane, basically always been but its even worse now than historically, and as for extremism it depends which kind. Most extremism looks pretty bad to me.
Its not really possible to change peoples minds on twitter, tiktok, or facebook because of the medium (short text, short videos, short attention span). I think it is on reddit but one has to try really hard. Im kinda hoping the internet's all round shittyness as of late forces people to go outside and talk to each other. I don't really think the social media is even a place where people have coherent political positions. The people on there are just being used for their behavioral value, to be turned into profit. And getting them fired up over things is similar to how a farmer puts fertilizer in their crops. It increases the yield. |
