Official town hall poster rehabilitation discussion root thread

[HughFreezemyCuckoldYesPlz]

1. This root thread will be another attempted avenue for mature discussion on papers/research studies of interest (health/medical, mathematical, hard sciences, politics, sociology behavioral, philosophical, etc.)

2. I will post the first topic eventually on here in what is called the root thread (this thread) to provide a use case first example. If the discussion goes ‘well’ it will be moved to a separate thread within purgatory. If it does not go well it will be moved to another thread as well and locked. Or deleted. This will be done one topic at a time in the root thread until being moved. Moved threads can also eventually be locked or deleted if chaos ensues.

3. Presentation format: every topic must be initiated with the topic, the citation for the paper or study, and a shortly written synopsis about it and what you, the initiator, actually thinks on it. A synopsis means at least a 3-4 sentence paragraph. Tweets, YouTube videos, TikTok videos, memes, etc, cannot initiate a topic but they are perfectly fine for additional posts and supplementary arguments. The additional catch is, however, every tweet, YouTube video etc whatever must also be accompanied by a short paragraph as to why it was used to make the point that the poster made. A meme/video presentation only will be deleted immediately or when I see it.

4. All views will be tolerated before agreement/disagreement respectfully ensues. If you want to post about a paper on the unfair bias in the media towards a political candidate that’s perfect. If you want to post a paper about the long term effects of COVID shutdown on mental health outcomes go for it. If you want to post a research study on market bailout economics and its effect on living wages since the Reagan years go for it. If you want to post a research study on certain political parties use of cultural distractions to avoid their lack of policies and subsequent attempts to subvert the population, please feel welcome. If you want to post a link to a research study on gum chewing and long term ovarian cancer risk that would be awesome.

5. Failure to comply will lead to post deletions, thread locks, etc. Further insults insinuating I’m:
-socialist
-anarchist
-right winger
-Trumper
-fascist
-Marxist
-statist
-Chomskyite
-China apologist
-liberal idiot
-pick any of them

Or any other typical terms used to distract from a users own lack of ability to articulate their thoughts will be removed or permanently removed from ever engaging in discussion again (and relegated to discussion removed form purgatory discussion rehab).

If asked to explain more in a civil manner, any failure to comply will likely lead to a locked thread. The nice part is answers such as ‘I don’t know’ when asked to describe further are perfectly fine but no advancement will eventually lead to lock or removal. The point is to have slow discussion with limited ego and one topic at a time before being moved to one separate thread (and the root thread will be restarted).

FINALLY: I will post the initial link and my (at least 1 paragraph) interpretation of it to get started. Likely next week of October 7-

May the odds be ever in your favor.

Haha. Yeah. I have an article and synopsis ready to go soon for round 1 but some other major delays. Will try to get this off the ground soon.

So I have a bunch of articles but thought topic one could be post-election driven.

Just generally curious:

Now that Trump won again, and super heavy corporate America beat out heavy corporate America what positive things do we expect to happen in the next four years?

I think the US general institutions have failed for so long and bred so much mistrust that we focus on fluff and distractions rather than any form of substance/basic institutions every country has except for here (eg zero effort for maternal/child leave care/nothing) and that we generally deserve but forget due to all propaganda and distractions from every direction.

As mentioned in post 1, It would be great to keep his tweet/tiktok/meme/youtube free, too, and distraction free, if possible. If not I’ll just delete the post in an attempt to try. Bringing up any research justification would be great too as also mentioned in post 1. ‘This policy result is my proof, etc.’ If this thread takes off I will make it’s own thread in here.

One example would be: ‘I live on the Texas border and my greatest fear is losing borders,and subsequent increased crime/taxes spent on illegals immigrants. trump will do X, Y, and Z. ´ this particular policy or proof (cite paper) and explain is also why.

-Another example would be: ´I am anti-foreign war support (Russia/Ukraine) and think funding should be drawn back in general to get the budget down.

-Another will be: ‘think he will reduce the role of government, deregulate, and the economy will take off? That’s all I care about. Nothing else matters to me.’

For me I’m afraid of too much deregulation. All presidents have been guilty of this for a while and it proves to lead to market crashes, tax payers picking up the slack, and average living wages decreasing since the 70s. My general guess is my policies and concerns don’t align with this board so just generally curious the priorities and value system as to what will be considered positive from Trump in the next four years?
