They're over in Illinois. There are plans to get troops in Chicago ...

I have a question for you. Who here values their relationships with others. Lots of you.Great. Now, I'm sure one thing we can all agree on is that they're complex things, romantic or platonic. They are long-lasting sources of emotional support that give us the strength to tackle the problems life inevitably throws at us.But if these relationships are so important to us, why do we let political views dominate them so much. Research following the 2020 US presidential election found that almost 80% of Trump an ...

So let let's talk about the shooting which highlights the extent of the political polarization, the extreme voices on both sides that appear to be the loudest.At least that is what the algorithms would have us believe.

As such, these people are lemmings who do and say as they're told because ...

彭博地缘经济分析显示,在两极分化的美国,政治暴力事件激增,过去五年针对政客的暗杀和暗杀未遂事件创下自1960年代(可追溯)以来的最高纪录。据哈姆林大学(Hamline University)的研究中心Violence Project统计,自2021年初以来,已发生五起针对政客的暗杀或暗杀未遂事件,其中包括2024年两起针对当时的总统候选人特朗普的暗杀。先前,特朗普亲密盟友、保守派活动家Charlie Kirk本周在犹他州的校园活动中遇刺。分析师Jennifer Welch和Martin Quick在一份研究报告中写道,政治暴力是健康民主的对立面。它的成因无法轻易解释,其肇事者和受害者跨越了意识形态界限。他们表示,导致近期暴力事件升高的一个因素似乎是“政治极化加剧”。“展望未来,存在暴力事件引发更多暴力的连锁风险。” ...
