Some Red State/Blue State Indicia

The secret is immigrants (especially those at the lower end of the economic ladder) by and large don't uproot their lives for ****s and giggles. They come here mostly for their children. They make enormous sacrifices and pour everything into those children. And American society is the lucky beneficiary of this process.

As true today as it was in the 1900's, 1920's and post WWII.

Just different language and different place of origin
 
The most important scientific advance of the past decade is contained in this paper.

It is the backbone behind the transformer deep learning architecture that has revolutionized AI.

All of the eight co-authors were either born somewhere else or had parents born somewhere else. At the same time they benefitted from being in the right place at the right time (this country in this century). Happens a lot.

That holds for legal immigrants for the most part.

Pretty iffy in regards to the illegals.

Children of illegal immigrants do very well too.

Btw the ranks of people who at various times were in this country illegally contains some very illustrious names.
 
I continue to wonder if leftists on this board understand that *they* are supporting the party of full authoritarianism

Most public hearings have code of conduct rules. Just sayin'. Looking forward to y'all jumping to someone's defense when they demand the right to violate those rules in the name of a cause y'all don't agree with.

The code of conduct rule says you can't criticize an official. You really think that supersedes the first amendment?
 
Like for example, the time the GOP majority in Tennessee expelled two Democratic members for violating their rules. I sure didn't hear any of y'all cryin' about freedom and all that jazz back then.

I don't give a rat's ass about the tussle between the lady and the mayor of Sunrise. What I'll calling out is y'all's hypocrisy and lack of consistency.

I'm not sure how I've shown any hyprocrisy. I pretty much hate all politicians and government officials
 
If y'all gonna call out that mayor for shutting down that lady then surely y'all should have been up in arms when those two legislators got expelled in Tennessee.

well next time someone with an (R) next to their name pulls a stunt like this speak up and you won't be hearing from me about y'all's hypocrisy and inconsistency
 
I mean the dude cheated on arresting people for paddle boarding in April 2020, and media companies censoring true information. What do we expect from the academic?
 
i'm for fweedom...on a consistent basis

just like i'm for law and order with no exceptions for my favo(R)ite politicians

just like when someone threatens kavanaugh i say clearly that's bad and don't go speculatin' whether it is a spat between gay lovers

y'all's mileage may vary
