True Story: I have the luxury of spending my days behind screens, learning, researching, and occasionally taking a few trades. However, I know that most people don't have this privilege. A friend recently recommended a channel to me that I've found to be a great source of unbiased, historical information. He's also an independent expert on American history and its origins. If you want to see what actually happened during yesterday's debate, I recommend watching this person's post. And if you're interested in learning more about the experiences of people of color in the United States, I haven't found anything better.
Personally, I struggled to listen to either candidate yesterday. Trump reminded me of a younger me during heated arguments in past relationships. In my opinion, he didn't listen to either the moderators or Kamala's answers, and he failed to recognize when she was dodging questions. I didn't hear much new about Trump's policies, as I'm familiar with them from his website. However, I heard very little about Kamala's policies. I also noticed that she gaslighted the American media for much of the debate. I'll give her credit for that. She kept Trump distracted by defending himself and avoided any pressure to answer real questions. I'm not angry or upset about her strategy; it's a great way to win a debate or conversation. My concern is that she had to resort to this strategy and didn't have strong policies that would inspire confidence in the American people. I've noticed that many others have also observed this.
That said, I don't think Trump should participate in any more debates. If people fact-check Kamala, they'll find 18-20 lies in her debate. I found 18, but some people say it's even higher. I found 3 lies that I'm not entirely sure about in Trump's statements. However, the deal-breaker for me was when Trump said that Russia invaded Ukraine just 3 days after the Biden-Harris meeting with Soviet officials. This bothered me because I play a little chess. When you see your opponent make a bad move, you have to capitalize on it and try to gain as much as possible before they can set up a new defense. Russia saw an opportunity in weak and incompetent leadership. This is not the situation we want to be in as Americans.
I wish we had better candidates to choose from, and I don't want to influence anyone's vote. I just hope we're voting based on who will be the best candidate for this country, not on factors like appearance. This decision will have a significant impact on our children and our future. I'm not impressed with what I've seen in the last 4 years.
Additionally, I was shocked to see how ABC moderated the debate, which has led me to believe that the media is manipulating the election. This kind of power and influence only comes from the elites. As my mentor Malcolm X said, "He who controls the media, controls the masses."
Finally, we should all be careful how we treat each other that don't agree with us. Echo chambers are real, and having a narrow-minded and immature approach when disagreeing with someone is immature, manipulative and somewhat bridge burning. Remember that the two people who are campaigning don't even know your name. The chances that most of us meeting them in person are slim to none, and most of us have been wrong about something more than 30% in our lives. Many people lose family members and friends over politics, yet most can have friends who have different religions, cultural activities, and lifestyles without issue. I've found to have a few followers are who are extreme with their beliefs and comments on one side and just a one or two on the other. Having this number of people I can tap into allows for me to here both talking points. I also found when some are spewing lies and I fact check them, they really don't care that they are telling lies. This is quite bothersome, but I look at it more as their personal character than an attack on a entire group. I hope this information helps and I don't know about yaw, but I can't wait until this election is over.
Please go out and vote, and if you don't I totally understand.
