Most republicans are ashamed of supporting this lunatic today. Hence they are quiet. Some of them are shameless and are still supporting Trump. Maybe it’s sunk cost that hasn’t sunk in yet.

People are angry. Tens of millions of Americans believe there was material and pervasive fraud in the election. Instead of pausing and trying to assuage concerns and assess irregularities (like 50-100k ballot dumps going entirely to Biden), we saw politicians try and rush certification. The courts are afraid of taking the case because they fear rioting and the terrible optics of disenfranchising black votes. It’s pretty dang clear that a fraudulent election should not stand, but what are you supposed to do when the powers that be are unwilling to act?

Read as: "Nobody can prove to me that the election was legitimate. I won't believe it even if Republican states audit the results, republican leaders say it was legitimate, or republican judges tell me Trump has no evidence. Democrats pulled off millions of fake votes right under Republicans noses. I just know it!"

And by fraudulent election you mean an outcome you disagree with. Pretty much every shred of evidence trump has suggested has been disproven. Also, I'm assuming you support BLM as well given your response suggests that when the powers that be don't listen it's okay to riot.

Trump and others within the party incited violent riots, that’s indisputable. But for me perhaps more disturbing was the number of people who could be swayed to do something like that. Where is the personal responsibility and critical thought? This is something missing from American society. BLM also rioted and terrorized. People on the right and left are increasingly polarized, hostile toward each other, and superficial and extreme in their views. There is no nuance and open discussion. How do we confront this? The media? Educational institutions?

How did you spin the 7 months of violence (including the murder of children) perpetrated by Biden supporters?

The only other way to keep the miles is to pay $10 per 1000 miles, as far as I know. Are there other strategies?

I'm a Bernie supporter who got invited here because I debate in a reasonable manner. I was reading some reasonable posts talking about how ridiculous it is to call Republicans racist all the time.
On the left it is frustrating because there is a president who says racists things (from mex are rapists to there are fine people in Charlottesville etc...) and enjoys 80% GOP support.
We clearly agree racism is bad - how can we work together to resolve it? Where does it break down?

So what are everyone’s thoughts on reopening? I know as of 4/22 Massachusetts only has 21 deaths in the under 50 age group. I think time to re-open but precautions in place and elderly stay quarantine

here's my prediction.

If Biden wins, the media will begin to message the following;

-The worst COVID risks and outcomes are to people with identifiable risk factors such as obesity and diabetes.

-Most other people who catch it will experience a bad flu.

-Many other people who catch it won't even know they have it.

-It's not commonly transmitted by touching objects and person to person transmittal is low risk except in close contact.

The media will then message that we should;

I just want to say that I still support police officers across the country. I know that these are tough times for everyone and while I condemn the officers that use lethal force on unarmed civilians...I understand that not all officers act like that. I would probably get thrown out if this were any other bowl.
