Nah, one less algorithm available to hijack my attention with nonsense @Mel Hopkins 🙂

It is possible many of those “uncommitted” voters simply did not vote this time. In terms of the swing states clearly trump appealed to more if these folks as he ran the table with those states.

@Pioneer1 that FDR quote is fiction, he never said such a thing, that is why you can’t find a source. I hear the main reason Kamala lost was the millions who sat out or voted third party.

well that is the American narrative. How often do you even see stats on Americans leaving for Mexico? it’s estimated that between 800,000 and 1.5 million Americans currently reside in Mexico. That is like everyone living in Vermont and Wyoming moved to Mexico.

Thank you @Mel Hopkins “The master’s tools will never dismantle the master’s house,” —Audre Lorde Interestingly, shortly after Elon took over I was locked out of my Twitter account and have been prevented from going back in. @aalbc is still there but is inactive. I had sometime check. I can’t even look at my old account.

Like america, Mexico is a very diverse country. Tijuana is in no way reflective of the nation. They have ancient pyramids, beautiful beaches, lush rainforests, Mexico City is a major Urban center. many Americans have moved there the cost of living is much lower.

A liar or crazy . Not even the Star Trek communicator is as sophisticated as a cheap cell phone. They were truly advanced civilization, and that technology has been lost to antiquity 😉 This is a 50 inch television: Over the last 40 years I’ve thrown away several televisions and computer monitors all of them in perfect working order. In the mid 90s I got a $3000 computer monitor at work. It was the state of the art at the time. I eventually took the monitor home and used it for many years when the flat screens came around and dropped dramatically in price. I got a couple of those and replaced my humongous 19 inch monitor. I decided to give it away. No one not even Goodwill would take it, I ended up putting it on the trash. More than 20 years ago, I purchased a 60 inch television it too was state of the art The largest black screen television on the market. It still works! I still have an iPod that works. I have some tech that is almost 40 years old that still works. I’ve never thrown away a broken cell phone or television. The only time I felt like I had to upgrade was when Apple deliberately screwed up the battery life or when they deliberately refused to upgrade software to keep it backward-compatible with old operating systems Bottom line hardware is great. despite that people still feel compelled to upgrade cell phones every year or two. Replace cars every few years, but the latest or greatest TV. This has nothing to do with accounting or understanding how to handle money. Our society is consumer driven. Everything is aligned to encourage us to consume. That is our problem.

Not all of them. How do you feel about the people who simply chose not to vote? Who is more regarded someone who day out or dinner one who voted for trump?

Dude, I’m not sure why you saying. Subscribe to a black Newspaper and you will find plenty of people concerned about this. again, if your only source of information is the web you are being lied to. And I’m saying that not for someone who visits a wide variety of websites I’m talking about people who treat the web as if it’s only Amazon and a few social media websites which is the majority of us. I would not consider the growing Hispanic population a problem. The problem stems from the handful of individuals behind the supermassive corporations who control the information we consume, and therefore control us. But ask someone to stop using any of those websites and people will look at you like you’re crazy. We willingly submit ourselves to manipulation, at this point large segments of our population are addicted to this. The only remedy that I see is to stop using social media, but view view people are going to do this….

Pushing Forward... We’re navigating a challenging time, but so many things keep us pushing forward. Among them are these words from Frederick Douglass: “If there is no struggle, there is no progress…This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle. Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never did and it never will.” The struggle for freedom and justice always continues. It does not rest on any one event, whether successful or not. As kidlit creators, educators, librarians, parents, and supporters, let’s continue to use our gifts and talents to positively impact the lives of our young people. Our books make a difference. Our teaching makes a difference. Our example makes a difference. Our guidance, mentorship, the time we spend listening, supporting, pouring into — it’s all valuable and needed. Especially now. Let’s find meaning and purpose with others who know that we MUST continue. And when we need a reminder, may we find encouragement in each other and the young people who deserve our best.

A superior TV of the same dimensions would cost about $250 at Walmart today @umbrarchist. This one of the many reasons why economists are saying the economy is "improving." However, people don't feel it because they have already borne the brunt of the credit card debt you've described.

@ProfD I can't find anything to suggest that Hispanic population will be 190M by 2045 or that the total US population will be almost half a billion by 2045, as your table says (using 50M for Blacks).

@ProfD "would have won" but the democrats did not, because the Republican party appealed to more people. Why can't you just accept that? I also believe a white male candidate, with the right policies on the economy, immigration, etc, would have beaten Trump, but that did not take place in a reality. 🙂

I get that Del. What I think you are missing is that you are also "trained" on far less information that is available to an AI. Why is it inconceivable that an AI could not come up with the same idea or others that are far superior to yours?

Has anyone said "Y'all are crazy" @Pioneer1 your 61-year-old friend is clearly not interested in a woman. His behavior demonstrates that. His talk is probably just a defense mechanism to explain his lack of having a woman. Which society still frowns upon. And y'all definitely have different taste in women than I do. LOL!

Where in Mexico are you?

OK so you clearly see that an AI can consumer all "the Books about Astrology Tarot Numerology, Clocks, Time, Hebrew and Greek Alphabet, and Numbers" you consumed and orders of magnitude more --without forgetting anything. The only step you won't ascribe to AI is "intuition." But what is intuition Del? Is it anything more that the firing of neurons inside your skull? Why can something indistinguishable, or even beyond our comprehension, be done in silicon? What did you think about the famous Alpha Go example I provided? What would you call that unexpected move "creativity," "intuition," "genius," or something else?

So you are manipulating the data to make a point? 🫣 The reason I asked for a source is because I knew the Black population figure was wrong -- just off the top of my head -- which made the entire table suspect too. I just wanted to see where you got the table from. I suspected the source had an agenda, a narrative they wanted to project that ran counter to reality.

Hummm, if the results of the last election do not tell you this, then facts apparently don't matter, and we can't have a meaningful conversation 🤨

@Delano what did you use for your training?

@ProfD It makes a little difference what those voters are called when the bottom line is that the Republican party now appeals to the majority of American— at least the ones who vote.

Ok @ProfD, but where did you get this data? I still expect the Bkack pollution to be larger than 50 million, and to grow to be a larger percentage of the overall population and it is now.

The Republican party is quickly becoming the party of the forgotten working class, the common man, the masses. This was supposed to be the Democrats sweet spot. this is demonstrated by the fact that Donald Trump earned, so far, 3 million more votes then Kamala Harris. This is significant. as so, many Americans feel that Trump will serve them better than Harris and the Democratic Party. Trump will be president soon, and for the sake of America, my family, and myself I want him do well. People have to go out and vote during the midterms in two years. The Democrats need to identify and groom a couple of candidates who can take on whoever the Republicans field as their next presidential candidate (I’d be astonished if its JD Vance).

YouTube can be very lucrative if you can get people to watch a videos and as you become more popular that brings additional opportunities to make even more money.

Do you create amulets or talismans? Do you wear them now?
