Apparently, we're gonna be getting a Biden vs. Trump general now. Which should make for some interesting presidential debates.

Creation categories:

I think I am missing a 5th

Your fifth Creation category might be "Split thing up into component things you want."

I'll also point out that your fourth one (and possibly the first, depending on the destruction level) are the only ones that are technically "creating" something, the others are just "making" something.

I see

is make things out of thin air the only way to create something, since "Split thing up into component things you want" is also "making"?

also, is there a 7th destruction category?

Or maybe I should ask this way

What are the true creation and true destruction categories?

(that is not contaminated by other notions)

Lol:

Refinement: The process of increasing thingness by excluding things

@James Well, in all of Michigan, that number was 2000, so I guess twitterverse is a very small place.

I just hope that Yang doesn't pull a 2016 Bernie and completely sell out now that he lost.

@AndyD273 As the saying goes, "Twitter is not real life."

@AndyD273 Alot of them also chose other people to vote for shrug

@AndyD273 How would you say he's sold out?

I think the average I have seen is that 10-12 percent of voters say they're on twitter.

@James Besides bending the knee and endorsing Hillary, he flipped on lots of his issues to pander to the the woke progressive twitter bubble. Old Bernie: Open borders are a Koch(sp?) brothers proposal. There are too many poor people in the world. New Bernie: Closed borders are racist, we should give health care to all people who can get here.

That's just one area out of many

Listening to the twitter crowd, and not what real working Americans are saying.

And it shows because he's getting creamed

Eh. I think Bernie kept his core economic message (which I find seriously faulty) and evolved his position where he thought he needed to...thats politics/compromise to me, not selling out.

Though yeah. He's getting his ass handed to him.

If you actually go back and listen to what kinds of things he used to say, vs what he's saying now, he's changed a lot.

That's not an evolution, that's throwing the baby out with the bath water and doing a complete 180

And by "things he used to say" I mean 5 years ago, not that long ago.

Eh. Alot of people want to rake politicians over the coals for doing things for the sake of politics. Prioritizing the purity testing BS over practicality and compromise seems...like a large part of the reason we are where we are.

Sure, but one of the things people keep saying about Bernie is that he is consistent, and it's demonstrably not true. He used to be about working class Americans, and now he's not. It's fine if he claims that he got new information and changed his opinions, but from my perspective it sure looks like he got stuck in a micro twitter bubble, and started pandering to the whims of the people who were in that bubble with him.

And it doesn't really matter, since you can't get enough votes from a micro-bubble, so that's fine.
