The only poll that counts is a vote.

Until people can vote for or against what Greenpeace and the UN want, opinion polls are for the birds.

"The survey was conducted by the United Nations Development Program (UNDP), analysts at the University of Oxford, and NGO partners using a new approach: mobile gaming."

Seriously...
"From October 7 to December 4, 2020, advertisements in popular mobile games like Angry Birds and Words With Friends were replaced by the survey in 17 languages. "

That's not how "the people" express their voices, Greenpeace.

Moreover, it's f***ing weird.
"Survey questions were drawn from a game that puts players in the role of politicians who are trying to limit global warming to 1.5 degrees or less through different policy areas. "

It is therefore self-selecting, you cretins.
"The survey results provide an invaluable asset for world leaders who will come together later this year at COP26, the UN’s annual climate change conference..."

Imagine that! A mandate manufactured out of a computer game that runs on smartphones.

They are insane.
They've actually called it "the people's climate vote".

They are **desperate** for legitimacy, and they know that they have absolutely no mandate whatsoever.

It would seem that the Department of Sociology at @UniofOxford believe that computer games can produce democratic mandates.

That being the case, the department should be closed.
The UNDP should be closed too.

They are dangerously separated from reality.

They are toxic to democracy.
Seriously, @UniofOxford, this has your name on it. Your name is being used to advance the idea that computer games can produce democratic mandates.

What are you going to do about it?
It's interesting to note the @UNDP's disclaimer. The study they paid for doesn't reflect their views.

But the idle opinion of 1.2 million game players DOES reflect the views of all 7.8 billion people on Earth.
Any comment, @DanSnow96, @StephenDFisher, @ZackG_Politics?
Your work appears not only to be total bullshit, it's like something from beyond Black Mirror.

Trump is gonna let the Mueller investigation end all on it's own. It's obvious. All the hysteria of the past 2 weeks about his supposed impending firing of Mueller was a distraction. He was never going to fire Mueller and he's not going to


Mueller's officially end his investigation all on his own and he's gonna say he found no evidence of Trump campaign/Russian collusion during the 2016 election.

Democrats & DNC Media are going to LITERALLY have nothing coherent to say in response to that.

Mueller's team was 100% partisan.

That's why it's brilliant. NOBODY will be able to claim this team of partisan Democrats didn't go the EXTRA 20 MILES looking for ANY evidence they could find of Trump campaign/Russian collusion during the 2016 election

They looked high.

They looked low.

They looked underneath every rock, behind every tree, into every bush.

And they found...NOTHING.

Those saying Mueller will file obstruction charges against Trump: laughable.

What documents did Trump tell the Mueller team it couldn't have? What witnesses were withheld and never interviewed?

THERE WEREN'T ANY.

Mueller got full 100% cooperation as the record will show.
This is partly what makes it impossible to have a constructive conversation nowadays. The stubborn refusal to accept that opposition to Trumpism and GOP nationalism is about more than simply holding different beliefs about things in and of itself. 👇


It's fine for people to hold different beliefs. But that doesn't mean all beliefs deserve equal treatment or tolerance and it doesn't mean intolerance of some beliefs makes a person intolerant of every belief which they don't share.

So if I said I don't think Trumpism deserves to be tolerated because it's just a fresh 21st century coat of cheap paint on a failed, dangerous 20th century ideology (fascism) that doesn't mean I'm intolerant of all beliefs with which I disagree. You'd think this would be obvious.

Another important facet. People who support fascist movements tend to give what they think are valid reasons for supporting them. That doesn't mean anyone is obliged to tolerate fascism or accept their proffered excuse.


Say you joined a neighborhood group that sets up community gardens and does roadside beautification projects. All good, right? Say one day you're having a meeting and you notice the President and exec board of this group are saying some bizarre things about certain neighbors.
