1/ A case study via video: “In evaluating “judicial temperament” the Committee considers the nominee’s compassion, decisiveness, open-mindedness, courtesy, patience, freedom from bias and commitment to equal justice under the law.” (Pg. 3, americanbar.org/content/dam/ab…)
2/ Blaming a conspiracy theory for his problems & not his alcoholism, a lack of self discipline by yelling, and thus lacking the decorum and stability of a judicial appointee.
3/ Either feigning emotion or allowing his emotion to drive his behaviors exemplifies an unstable judicial official. There are better conservative appointees out there. Contrast Kavanaugh to Gorsuch.
Thread. 1/ Understanding IO, Symmetry in communications: Often we communicate using various models to influence a target group (researchgate.net/profile/James_…) The other important aspect to consider is assuming the audience has symmetrical ethics and beliefs. Why does this matter?
2/ This matters because we aren’t influencing as well as we can when our research, selection, and execution is flawed when we assume our audience is similar to us. In fact, often times it’s a bias weakness that is used against Americans.
3/ An example of this mistaken symmetry in action is the statement “The government is Russia is corrupt but so is America’s, so who cares.” First you have a blatant use of a type of grand whataboutism. Secondly, the people of both groups have significantly different ethic systems
1/ There is news that is easy to dismiss has cultural impact. Recently the “Tomos of Autocephaly” between the Ru Orthodox Church and the Ukrainian Orthodox Church happened- Ukraine views it as a step in consolidating their national Identity. apnews.com/amp/c892a7746e…
2/ Why does this matter? Like any Ru mafia organization, the Ru Orthodox Church is woven in with the Kremlin. The Kremlin projects it’s power through the Ru Orthodox Church via cultural mechanisms. Case in point- with Pence/Franklin Graham.
3/ With separating the two religious organizations, it further cements Ukraine’s autonomy from the Kremlin’s sphere of influence and 1000 years of Ru Orthodox Church influence. unian.info/society/102445…
Thread: 1/ I look forward to a simple political ad series that supports the merits of voting for democrats that showcases the following:
2/ If you make less than $5,000,000 a year and own less than 2 homes, you should vote for Democrats.
3/ The right/GOP uses the voting population to ensure the top 1% are taken care of through corporate welfare. The only people that believes trickle down economics works are oligarchs and stupid people. Speaking of stupid people...
