#onthisday in 1935 Geraldine Ferraro was born in #newburgh #NewYork. A 3-term #Congresswoman from #queens she was plucked out of obscurity by #waltermondale to be the first #female major #PoliticalParty #candidate for #vicepresident of the #usa in 1984. A #financial scandal involving her husband’s business doomed her #campaign and #career. She never won another #election. She died in 2011. #history #histodons #newyorkcity #nyc #otd https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geraldine_Ferraro

I’ve noticed that in #politics at least it appears the more obvious the con the more people are willing to believe. So in an effort get on a easy life gravy train I’m proposing a new #politicalparty called the Obvious Fraud Party. The slogan will be ‘Whatever you think you want we will sincerely promise to get it for you’. Who’s in?

Why so many critics are wrong about how to fix what ails America and what it would take to actually do it

If a #PoliticalParty uses #FakeImages of seemingly such little consequence, how can the public trust them in instances of #GreatImportance?
How could anyone trust anything any political party says?

#60Minutes went all in on that Sunday night, abasing itself to the idea that if Greene is powerful in a major #politicalparty, she is worth giving a respectful hearing without significant pushback. #LesleyStahl may have been a reporter, producer, and interviewer for longer than Greene has been alive, but she was not ready to handle this.

In a meta-analysis of 500 studies with more than 250,000 participants, interacting with another group decreased #prejudice in 94% of the cases. When was the last time you happily interacted with a fan of your rival team, with someone holding a different #belief system, with someone from a different #politicalparty? #bias #thinkforyourself

@wogan Yes, I definitely like the idea that #PoliticalParty|s, #media, #journalists, companies, #government institutions etc set up accounts on mastodon.africa.
I am missing the kind of engagement that would be possible if they were here (and I like what e.g. the social.bund.de instance offers to German government entities).
Maybe @carteblanchetv or @LeYayJay might want to chime in?

The folk theory of democracy is that we do the research and then join the party that aligns with our beliefs. The tribal theory of democracy is that we join the party and align our beliefs with that party. Do you vote the way that you do because it matches your beliefs or it matches your #PoliticalParty? #politics #CriticalThinking #democracy #TribalPolitics #IdentityPolitics

Cautiously positive takeaway from the #TottenhamSpurs sage over the last few days:
It seems that some politicians start to understand that just being dismissive regarding criticism is no longer enough, so the age of there not being any accountability at all in politics in #SouthAfrica could slowly come to an end.
It still might take some time though until #PoliticalParty|s in #coalition|s also on the #municipality level wake up to the fact that there *will* be accountability sooner or later.

We made #history tonight 🇪🇺🇵🇹✌️💪⚡️and became the first national #politicalparty in #Portugal to include #genderequality and #copresidency in our #statutes for approval by the Portuguese #constitutionalcourt.
Join us on our voyage towards a truly inclusive society. Don't let populists and extremists divide us, because we are much #strongertogether.

立憲民主党議員の9割が緊縮路線って。
もしそうなら、今回の選挙で黒字財政を標榜してるだろうが。 https://t.co/cvzePImzFW https://twitter.com/tokumeiAsan/status/1455465915424722944
