Do we have a politics thread to discuss things political?

I’m not “celebrating” but I’m definitely choosing not to be sad. If the US Administration wants to misconstrue that as celebration then come at me bro 💁🏼‍♂️ The American constitution might not mean much these days but mine still does and you’re 💯 welcome to pay my legal fees to find out.

So there were a lot of people who noticed the right side of Trump's face drooping during the September 11 remembrance ceremony yesterday. It really does look like he had a stroke. You can see him reacting, looking down to check his left, then right hand for movement too. Some speculation he may also have had one a couple of weeks ago when he disappeared for a few days.

OK so Newsweek touched on this noting that Trump then made two public appearances during which he seemed in fine health, while speaking without issue and at length.

A comment under the article said: The effects of a mini-stroke can last as long as a few hours to a few days. The droopy right side of the kingdictator's face could have been one such event. Go find him speaking at that ceremony and you'll see why some thought stroke. One such event usually has others to follow.

I watched some of it and he seems to speak without issue, and flashed this grin at the start so doesn't appear to be a problem with the facial muscles, maybe just slightly less pronounced on his right side. Weird.

There's a point where you need to step back and stop getting mentally abused by the media and algorithms that are working to enrage you for engagement.

There are some big events that will occur in the next couple of months.

Probably one of the healthiest things I have done is not follow all this shit as much as I used to.

I think the key is stepping back and just getting some perspective. See how selective the outrage is. See how much is done by lack of information and context. Things get pushed or censored based on political agendas.

Notice how so many people are aware of misinformation, but think it doesn't apply to them. Not realising the biggest form of misinformation is what they are not told. Then how there's a weird ideological wall, where when exposed to something contrary, they dismiss it. The world view isn't a conclusion based on observing and understanding as much as possible.

I was thinking recently about this, and I think whatever personality trait made me not into team sports has helped me not fall into the traps so many people I know have.
