A week late, because I'm not very good at this promotion thing.
Liberals vs. Socialists. Destiny vs. Econoboi. The left keeps fighting itself. But what if the divide isn’t as deep as we think?

Ezra Klein's and Derek Thompson's #Abundance wants a new liberalism.
But the story it tells is built on an old—and wrong—narrative.
🧵Why following Abundance could lead Democrats down the same path that’s failed for decades:

Changing a person's mind has always been a challenge and today I researched a bit into it. This is what I found on misinformation
1) Ppl with higher general reasoning abilities were more likely to adjust their attitudes
2) Ppl with motivation to think deeply had little effect on attitude change

When asked how he can blame diversity for the plane crash with zero evidence, Trump says it's because he has "common sense."
It’s apparently so obvious in his mind that a white person couldn’t have been responsible that even with no proof whatsoever, it’s "common sense" that a minority is to blame.

It looks the House popular vote margin will be ~3%, almost exactly the same as 2022. The seat count will also be very close to unchanged. House Republicans also again outperformed Trump (& Senate Republicans).
