This blog has become a hotbed of political debate.

It could be that the election cycle relentlessly shoves dumbed down politics in my face. I hate it. I understand that it’s self defeating to admit that your ideas are imperfect. I know that you don’t win elections by telling voters that the real world has scarce resources and that reasonable people can disagree with you. I realize that it’s easier to get elected if you can convince people that you’re 100% right or that your opponent isn’t human. I just hate listening to advocates. It bugs me and I start to tune it out. Elections seem to draw out the most shallow and zero sum rhetoric possible.

Anyway the blog has been slow.

I blame life everybody being busy at the same time. I also blame Samoans. They just have no conception of the inherent generosity of white man’s culture. Either way I have nothing original to say so I’m providing a link to Mr. Sun. He has great political buttons.

Commented that I'm fucking sick of it. Everytime I look at this thing I think I'm reading a transcript of Crossfire!
