Im not attacking Burt here but "We're gonna find out one way or the other about the polls this week, so why worry about it?"
So whats the point of any discussion? We're all just sitting around here posting and talking about polls and shit.
You could argue that all this sitting around l posting and talking about polls and shit hasn't really been very good for anyones mental health.

Unless you think polls are just a means of manufacturing consent (which...yeah of course), in that case you'd need to prop up the legitimacy of polls before the election.
If it weren't for polls, whats the point of the internet, burt? are you saying we should shut down RM?
I would make a poll about that BUT I DON'T HAVE POLLING PRIVILEGES MODS

"Polls manufacture consent" is both a gross oversimplification and a misunderstanding of Chomsky's argument. Big time dumbdumb energy here. Great job as usual.

We don't care about that anymore, and if we can save one life, it's worth it.

We really should've aimed for the first post of the actual election day to be a top-pager so it could be a whiskey gif.

Having one final anxiety-fueled convo with my wife before bed, we wondered: Trump and his team have been throwing so much energy into twisting the narrative about Pennsylvania, it would certainly be something if Florida was a clear win for Biden early and Pennsylvania didn't even matter (and would be a twisted mirror of 2016 when Clinton assumed a greater strength in the Midwest and it bit her in the rear).
