I'm a chemist actually. I don't want to hijack this thread, because you people can't help yourselves, but I'll just say I don't think I've ever talked about those topics in the context of actual science (yet). The accusation by the guy I was talking to earlier was absolute fluff.
I'm quite fine if you don't believe me. I just mentioned it because it was kinda pertinent in asking how political science is an actual science. I really would like to know. A lot of my peers put it as the butt end of their jokes.
That's fair, and I'll discuss it at the appropriate time. I also think social science is ridiculously arbitrary, and more vulnerable to p value and other statistical manipulation than physical science.
I love it. You're too delusional to even recognize your delusions. But that's cool. Keep on doing what you're doing and watch the world pass you by.
Considering your peers are also likely white supremacist sacks of dildos, this metaphor is very apt .
I am also a graduate of SHSU, and remember, these things are cyclical- we'll probably have a more normal election in 2020.
It's not them, it's the portion of the electorate that never read history, doesn't follow international news or try to understand basic fiscal or economic principles. The late '60s were an explosion of new ideas about race, war and sexuality that had been brewing for decades; this is just two generations worth of insulated, round-the-clock escapism: video games, celebrity gossip and reality TV; coming to roost.
The short answer to this or any question about Trump's plans is that he's a reactive, petty, hedonistic, pampered liar with just enough preferred shares to pay PEs to build buildings and MBAs to punch up his memos.
sci·ence ˈsīəns/ noun the intellectual and practical activity encompassing the systematic study of the structure and behavior of the physical and natural world through observation and experiment. "the world of science and technology" synonyms: branch of knowledge, body of knowledge/information, area of study, discipline, field "the science of criminology" a particular area of this. plural noun: sciences "veterinary science" a systematically organized body of knowledge on a particular subject. "the science of criminology" Seeing as though you are allegedly a scientist, it's disconcerting that someone would have to explain the definition of science to you. Even more disconcerting is that you are allegedly a chemist which means you have access to volatile chemicals.
Dear Actual Scientist, "A lot" of people who like Trump and "a lot" of people who dislike Trump are two amounts that cannot even be compared. Which group is bigger? What is the significance of your statement? And what does "like" even mean when you separate it from voting? People would prefer to hang out with Trump instead of Clinton, in some alternate reality? "Liking" is not relevant to voting, according to your own observation, so what's the significance of liking? Sincerely, Actual Non-Scientist
