As I said below, if you want technological innovation, there is no
better place for "inspiration" than politics.

They'll try anything in politics.

Disagree. Both political parties are hyperconservative, in that they madly cling
to old and dangerous policies and refuse to look into the future. Our government
is two-part epoxy, mixed and solidified.

That's certainly true for the Democratic Party. In fact the _New York
Times_ will issue a fatwah against any national Democrat who even
utters the word "idea" before an election. Anyone with 2 dimes to
rub together shops online today so you know for sure the only reason
any interest buys ad space from the NY Times isn't doing it to sell
underwear at Dillards.

They are doing it _purely_ to buy editorial control.

On the other hand the GOP spent so much time bottom fishing it is now
too insane to be called "conservative."

None of the above contradicts anything in the OP: The 0.01% legacy
media will try the most implausible of deceptions.

Anyone with some math/logic background can rip a hole in the legacy
media sitting at home in his pajamies. This is good clean patriotic
fun.

The Princeton stats/neuroscientist called the legacy media on their
"horse race" poll scam. Every 4 years the media gush "it's a horse
race" and Gallup produces polls that look like it could go either way.

Get it? A horse race election is supposed to dupe the ignorant masses
into believing this is a vibrant happenin' democracy when in fact the
only thing happening is the rich getting richer and the poor poorer.

As the Princeton guy proved the state polls are accurate to 0.6% and
the national combination is even better. Mitt never even had a 0.1%
chance of getting elected and Nate Silver of the NY Times was merely
"triangulating" to use a term misused by the legacy media, between the
horse race polls and the reality of the Princeton meta study.

The Big Lie of course, is that competitions in ideas are or should be
like competitive track and field events in the first place.

No one ever gushed about the word processer having a close race
against a manual typewriter and Jefferson never gushed public support
for the French Revolution was close.

We vote by secret ballot for a reason. If nothing is happening the
polls will be accurate and close.

If something is happening the polls will be wrong.

In 1800 Jefferson won by a landslide wiping out the opposition party.

That wasn't a horse race.

Our government
is two-part epoxy, mixed and solidified.

That's how Thomas Wolfe described the "insoluble politics" of 1930s
Germany.

Here the problem isn't quite so bad. Hopefully it is more like
Florence where the popolo actually got some leverage over -- and some
art and technology out of -- the elites for awhile.

NYT is hilarious. It alternates insane leftist propaganda with ads for $18,000
wrist watches and $3000 shoes.

That's nothing. Supposedly readers can tell the difference between
ads and editorials.

The real problem is the editorials are being controlled by the ad
money. That's why they issue fatwahs against "populists." There
never was a firewall between ad money and content but it is really
obvious now.

Why is that surprising? The leftists are the ones buying $18,000
watches and $3000 shoes.
