I have no idea how to test this but I suspect that that there is a strong correlation between number of history books someone has read and how moderate their opinions are.
History is a list of simplistic ideologies failing to work as promised over and over again.
for y'all in my mentions:
1st order thinking = immediate outcome of an action
2nd order (aka intelligent) thinking = eventual consequences of that action
1st order thinking = haha pwned users go grrrrr
2nd order thinking = we should be fostering trust, not alienating colleagues
Staff @abcnews should demand withdrawal of David Wright’s suspension. His cardinal sin was being honest about how his bosses “don't see an upside in doing the job we're supposed to do, which is speak truth to power and hold people to account.” WATCH THIS: https://t.co/aJB5lkbiNM
omg. Clearview AI, the controversial facial-recognition company that scraped millions of photos from Facebook to add to its database, just reported that an intruder breached its system and stole its entire client list.

Gosh, you know what really convinces me I was so wrong about Trump’s cult?
Texting death threats to my wife and kids with my home address on them.
That’s really cool. @dcexaminer@dailycaller @GOPChairwoman
(Yes, I’ve informed relevant LE.)
The evidence is clear and overwhelming:
Donald J. Trump is guilty.
Guilty of abusing his power, guilty of soliciting foreign election interference, guilty of trying to cheat our democracy.
He must be removed from office.
Because in America, right matters. Truth matters.
@ABCPolitics No, the recording *appears* to capture Trump saying he wants her killed. Of course we can’t be certain but that’s what it “appears” to show.
If I tweeted what Trump commanded his goons to do to the ambassador, my account would be suspended, and the FBI would open an investigation.
Those three words, in that context, do not indicate an order to "take her out" to a nice dinner. The menace is inherent.
Trump = mob.
Not that this needs to be explained but maybe it does, “Take her out” means put a hit on or kill her. That’s standard mob speak. I litigated a wrongful death/civil rights case on behalf of an Estate of someone who was murdered by the mob. NYPD personnel were involved 1/
Tactical suggestion: Schiff & company should get creative with the motions they make to Chief Justice Roberts. Example: Schiff could make a motion to vest the power in the Chief Justice to decide what witnesses are relevant and material. Let McConnell oppose and look terrible.
.@DonaldJTrumpJr, my daughter was a victim of AR 15 violence in Parkland. You know that and you know some of the families. This photo and its incitement of violence only confirms you are a dangerous low life peice of garbage who may get someone killed.

White House Correspondents Association statement on KSA release of a statement and photos about an Oval Office meeting yesterday that the White House itself had not revealed: "It is disturbing to see the government of Saudi Arabia have more transparency than the White House."
