So your sample size is just your family

I felt like I was being fairly clear by saying that, that I didn't mean just my actual blood relatives, but also friends and community.

Whether intentional or not, that's a strawman.

Can you legitimately say that you see much difference between rural and metro trains of thought?

I've never lived in a large city, so I couldn't speak to that.

In any case, I don't feel like this conversation is terribly productive and probably won't continue.

You could actually talk to them and ask them why they vote the way they do rather than just call them stupid.

You say this like I haven't been talking to these people all of my life.

Especially since you didn't actually engage in the conversation

What?

I'm not saying that rural folks are stupid about everything or that all of them are stupid. Just when it comes to politics and voting, the vast majority of them are. I'm just explaining what my experiences are having spent my entire life around these people. They're my family.

I was born and raised in rural areas. I've lived my life in red states and countries. The vast majority of them are absolute stupid, especially when it comes to voting and politics.

Really interesting that the right side has a picture of Dave "why I left the Left" Rubin and his husband announcing their surrogate children.

What's the story with that one? I'm unfamiliar.

I avoided Bojack Horseman for years because I thought it was going to be like so many other edgy adult cartoons. I thought I knew what it was going to be like. I was so wrong.

I think you're like the one other person who didn't hate season 4. I enjoyed it, but I'd put it below season 3.

The flat earth video is amazing, I'll give you that. But for my money, this is his best one.

I've been using the Jasco Enbrighten Zigbee switches for a couple years and they're great.

This is a fantastic video essay on the movie and I promise it's not what you expect.

When it's really more of a game of inches...
