Others will be organizing food drives, volunteering at shelters, hosting teach-ins, and finding other creative ways to show up for their communities and push back against this administration. 621509581

Weston @westonmarkham.bsky.social · 08/04/2025Sometimes we can find casual factors that belong to one of those two categories, but those things don't produce any outcome in a vacuum; they combine with other conditions that always include factors from the other category as well. 000
Weston @westonmarkham.bsky.social · 08/04/2025I've always felt uncomfortable about what I see as over reliance on a "nature versus nurture" dichotomy. It's not as if either of those things exist in a pure form. Traits and behaviors always develop from an interplay between the two. 100

Weston @westonmarkham.bsky.social · 06/04/2025People protesting outside Tesla -> fewer Tesla sales -> faster collapse of the company -> lower TSLA price -> less influence of Elon Musk. And anyway, where do you think that mass commitment comes from? Certainly not from people staying home. 060

Weston @westonmarkham.bsky.social · 04/04/2025But that's the standard by which ranked choice voting determines an outcome. Objectively. That's just how it works. 000
Weston @westonmarkham.bsky.social · 04/04/2025Good to see that you're at least admitting that at least one more does exist, though. Just understand how important it is to include them in your ranking. 000
Weston @westonmarkham.bsky.social · 04/04/2025The standard of being preferable to Andrew Cuomo? I think you're delusional. 100
Weston @westonmarkham.bsky.social · 03/04/2025I think it can be both. The "Grand scheme" is to inflict those wrong ideas on the rest of us. Supporters of fascism love the very exercise of power, so the dumber the better. 030
Weston @westonmarkham.bsky.social · 03/04/2025Not just that, but you should rank five candidates. I believe there are eight non-Cuomo candidates, seven of which currently hold public offices. Just pick names out of a hat, if you have to; they are almost certainly all better than Cuomo. 020

Weston @westonmarkham.bsky.social · 02/04/2025Honestly, that's not that bad. The more interesting view of the market, imo, is the graph that shows that the markets were up before the tariffs were announced, meaning that the market was surprised that it happened. 121

Weston @westonmarkham.bsky.social · 02/04/2025Okay, I'm still a bit confused, but perhaps I didn't understand your initial post: "I'm ONLY ranking one person." This means that you are indifferent between Cuomo and the eight (I think) other non-Mamdani candidates. So, it seems like you are saying, "eh, he's not so bad". Why would that be? 010
Weston @westonmarkham.bsky.social · 02/04/2025I'm confused. Per Wikipedia: "In 2025, Mamdani was the only mayoral candidate to make an appearance at a rally in Union Square in Manhattan to protest the Trump Administration and Mayor Eric Adams for their immigration policy and federal policy towards transgender Americans." 010
