@TomBeckerle@Joshua_the_car It would be wise for you to understand that there are a lot of "conservatives" and other GOP members who would prefer a Mamdani to a JD Vance. Do with that information what you will.
@Bobbythirdway Older millennials graduated into the Great Recession and it set them back 10 years in terms of earnings and life milestones, and also kicked off this kind of perma adolescence that a lot of them still haven't grown out of.
@CoreyWriting Conservatives don't have this mindset. They'd rather open something new and keep liberals out of it than go to a place that no longer feels aspirational for them. We just need super rich right wing people to put up the capital.
@Anc_Aesthetics@0xsachi I mean, grant her for the sake of argument that he did. Is the idea here that we grant everyone on earth an H1B to ensure this 1 person didn't fall through the cracks? lol
@BlastoiseCap@MurrayHillGuy1 It will not have that effect. Demoralization is way more subtle of a tactic- one which produces complacency. Direct antagonism produces a defense response.
@UtubeRood@PeterMcCormack but all the parties you guys put in power are lefty liberals. Even your "conservatives" are further left than the average American democrat.
@PFIRorg It's unclear to me why we educate other countries students at all. If you want to make some kind of "talent" argument, shouldn't we be poaching the already educated adults of other countries? Why are taxpayer dollars being used to fund universities that educate non-Americans.
@CVernonSmith@CoreyWriting yeah but even that uses the assumption that a committed relationship is the "prize" and the fun loving prostitute is escaping a bad situation and winning her price charming. See what I mean? even a movie like pretty woman uses a pro-marriage, pro-relationship moral framework.
@CVernonSmith@CoreyWriting my point is that such things are baseline moral assumptions on which 100% of a culture's art should be based on. The fact that the inverse has been pushed (by film studios against their own people) is madness.
@CVernonSmith@CoreyWriting Istg Americans have been inundated with such Godless, soulless, morally inverted slop from Hollywood from so long you think a movie with the message: "prostitution probably isn't a career choice conducive to maximum female flourishing" is "conservative art."
