I don’t understand how you look at Clinton, Obama, and Biden and say they are trying to divide the country. Their presidencies were maybe the closest thing to bipartisanship I have ever seen. They ruled as republicans

In theory conversing with experts on both sides then finding consensus in the middle is a good idea. In practice it assumes that both sides have valid points on all issues (which they don't), never lie (which they do), haven't been bought (which they have), and that the middle is an appropriate response (which it almost never is; the "middle" position between some genocide and no genocide is a little genocide).

[–] Runcible@hexbear.net 32 points 4 months ago

The whole idea relies on there being no right/wrong answers

"I don't believe in anything besides trite platitudes, I treat politics as one-dimensional, I would have partisan advisors but somehow be able to fully resist the influence of money and party politics.

When you are approaching a highway exit, with one turn staying on the highway and one turn going off, my recommendation is to stick to the middle ground."

Is this an Eric Adams quote?

[–] infuziSporg@hexbear.net 7 points 4 months ago

You'd be excused in thinking I didn't just invent it.

[–] came_apart_at_Kmart@hexbear.net 30 points 4 months ago

in deciding if i will vote for Mr. Beast, i will consult experts who support Mr. Beast and experts who do not support Mr. Beast equally and then decide that the issue of Mr. Beast is too contentious and divisive and that he must, to heal the nation, be dropped in the middle of the ocean where nature will be allowed to determine the best course.

[–] kristina@hexbear.net 29 points 4 months ago (1 children)

dont care about things because of the party

Mr beast please explain your view on trans rights popuko-gun

[–] thethirdgracchi@hexbear.net 11 points 4 months ago

Apparently one of his best friends/collaborators is a trans woman and he's very vocally supportive of her, so probably better than most politicians lol

Hi I'm Jimmy beast, and my only policy is turning a big Fascism dial while looking at the audience

Literally doing the “hm one side wants to kill all immigrants and the other none, 50% it is!”

Except it’ll be a game show to exterminate the undesirables

In 15 years? You only have to be 35 to be president. No way is Mr Beast only 20.
