1) I just reported @bobmills on @youtube but I would actually like to report @youtube for #DigitalViolence and #PunishmentByAdvertisement. The logic of forcing you to pay for an add-free service is intriguing: it means they know their adds are a torture. How do these adds sell?
2) I am making a list of the companies that @youtube forces me (I'm a paying @Google customer) to watch. First, I'll make sure to NEVER buy from them and to share with all my contacts their names. Then, report all of them for mass advertisement.
3) My youtube account is not big. It has a couple of thousand views per month. I haven't added anything recently there. But I know I'm part of their profit machine. More than ever, I hope @ewarren is our next president and we can have a healthier MARKET economy.
4) No, it's not socialism, ignorants: regulation is what prevents market economy from committing suicide. An enormous, over-monopolistic market economy is a very large disaster asking to happen. @ewarren will be instrumental in avoiding total chaos.

1/ In a sense, the outrage I see around on this is boring. And insulting. Doubletalk doesn't require an advanced degree: Animal Farm suffices.

2/ We've been pointing out that:
(a) Melania Trump has committed fraud against the USCIS more than once and her current visa is inconsistent with the requirements of the EB-1A visa (I have one, I know what it takes: she would never be approved legally)
3/
(b) That the most vocal anti-immigrant spokespeople are connected with immigrant work exploitation and human trafficking;

1/ For some reason I hadn't seen this. A far-right anti-semitic extremist attack on a Synagogue during #YomKippur, known as "the day of atonement".

2/ The far-right extremist confessed. His profile is not that different from the far-right young American #incels radicalized online by "professional" white nationalists.

3/ It's time to re-negotiate our "tolerance with intolerance". Karl Popper described it as the seemingly paradoxical idea that, "In order to maintain a tolerant society, the society must be intolerant of intolerance." And he was right.

#Actually, Hispanics* are a pretty huge part of the story about how Texas has become more purple and it's weird that I'm seeing punditry to the contrary!

* Asian and "other" or mixed-race voters also an important part of the story, but we'll leave that aside for now.
Here's a comparison between 2004 (Bush/Kerry) and 2018 (Cruz/Beto). Democrats gained ground among both whites *and* Hispanics, but the gains among Hispanics are larger.

Whites: R+ 49 (2004); R+32 (2018)
Hispanics: D+1 (2004) D +29 (2018)
Meanwhile, Hispanics have grown from 20% of the electorate in 2004 to 26% in 2018. They're still underperforming in comparison to their share of the voting-eligible population, but that's helped Democrats too.

#YouTube anunciou mais regras para acompanhar a sanha de censura progressista e esquerdista (não é perseguição, o "outro lado" simplesmente não está fazendo isso). Continuam apoiando o critério altamente ideológico do "discurso de ódio". Mas agora basta ser conteúdo "limítrofe".
Ou seja, basta o censor subjetivamente te considerar "no limite da aceitabilidade" para remover a monetização do seu canal completamente. Enquanto isso, youtubers racistas como um que disse que precisava de um MacBook "para não ficar atrás dos brancos" não sofrem sanção nenhuma.
O alinhamento das superpotências digitais do setor privado com a extrema esquerda seria inexplicável, não fosse o bacharelismo de hoje, e os cursos de onde vêm os publicitários, artistas, administradores, psicólogos de RH: são cursos lotados de ideologia travestida de teoria.

#Actually, moderate Democrats seem to be more popular with general election voters after all. 53eig.ht/30HJdqf
Bernie's polling is decent, but that he does the 2nd-best against Trump (after Biden) is partly an artifact of name recognition. For instance, Buttigieg polls worse than Bernie vs. Trump. But Buttigieg actually has better favorables than Bernie among voters who know who he is.
It's certainly a messy relationship. Some liberals, including Bernie, have decent (though not great) polling. Some moderates don't. But favorability ratings, which allow voters to say they don't recognize a candidate, are a better way to assess this stuff than head-to-head polls.

#Actually, early presidential primary polls are fairly predictive. 53eig.ht/2PtbSd7
You have to adjust for name recognition, though. Biden, at just south of 30 percent, is still something like a 2:1 underdog. And Bernie's position at 20 percent, as I wrote yesterday, is tenable but not great.
Per the chart above, Buttigieg's position is roughly as good as Bernie's on a "polls only" basis, or maybe a bit better. Empirically, you'd slightly prefer to be polling at ~10% with low name recognition than ~20% with high name recognition.

#Actually, the chart actually shows clear evidence of the beer-wine frontier, with certain types of sprits (e.g. scotch, brandy/cognac) straddling the frontier. 🍺🍷
A few highbrow beers (although there's nothing *truly* highbrow on here) creep over into wineland, but that's sort of what you'd expect.
👏 WINE 👏 TRACK 👏 BEER 👏 TRACK 👏 HAS 👏 BEEN 👏 SCIENTIFICALLY 👏 VALIDATED 👏
