I've said and cheered fuck the state a hundred times but the learning curve doesn't stop

Did you watch Lummis and Scott?
Truly embarrassing...

Contrast with Snowden--who (without any audience interaction) was thoughtful, bright, insightful and compelling.
Lummis and Scott were a clown show....
Only saw snippets. Well a big part of the political job in democracies is building rapport by creating the impression of similarity in order to get support.
I don’t know about the absolute state of American society but maybe they did well from that point of view 😅
