People will have their personal stances. The data scientists are just trying to classify them so they can figure out a solution.

Lemmy guess it’s a multi-dimensional spectrum.

I don’t think we are on the same page.

I’m not talking about Trump. I’m using what you’d call “deductive reasoning”.

I don’t get the “everyone who doesn’t agree with me is a Trump/MAGA supporter mindset”.

Try separating your concerns, or you end up with an esoteric religious line of reasoning which gets in the way of what should be basic decision-making.

Just insurance in case you’re reading this in a blaze:

“I am trying to be neutral, assume I am on the side of neither political party. Treat me how you would a stranger on the street, from before you fell down the politics rabbit-hole.”

Thank you.

I am somewhat unsettled, but people usually don’t listen when a problem is posed without an actionable solution.

They’re working blind, and want to get over the dark age however they can. It’s why they tend to select leaders, who then create systems that work in the beginning, then can either be changed or maintained.

Once I get through the cited links, I’ll see if I can figure out something.

The way I see it, people are people. Some people say things that make sense, other times they don’t. I try to check out their sources and reason through conflicting arguments. I also give it some time rather than jumping to impulse decisions.

I try to do things on pattern recognition, but I don’t assume that my view is absolute. I do same with the thoughts and opinions of others.

It’s basically respecting a person’s individuality, and both of our abilities to grow as people.

Being good in one domain, doesn’t make you good in all domains. That takes time: sometimes I have it, other times I don’t.

If you want to keep it touch-and-go, you can link dump with some context. I’m currently reading through the posted ones to understand the current scenario.

How do you smell the difference between legitimate and fishy information when you have little in the way of frames of reference?

You usually need inter-personal conversations with people to exchange perspectives and reasoning. You are good at finding info like this because you practiced the skill you cared about. Words aren’t peoples strongest skills from the get go.

That’s why people socialize. You guys have more succinct summaries of the info, so I sought your wisdom.

Sorry, but it’s what it looks like.

I’m not that deep into this. The issues seem relevant, but the breakdowns I’ve been seeing from people online don’t really reveal much beyond them being unstable.

I am trying. I’m asking questions I’d usually keep to myself.

You are right. There needs to be a public follow-up of some of these decisions to assess their multi-degree effects.

These seem to issues of subordinates blindly following orders or miscarrying out their directives.

In addition there are coordinators/facilitators who need to be kept on tighter leashes and strictly supervised.

Prison is meant to be for rehab, a place to tame “wolves” in a sandbox. Beyond issuing decrees, there needs to be civilian driven investigations into some of these places. They are funded by tax-payers and should be transparently accountable to them, similar to investors in the private sector.

It’s that or some territories voluntarily separate due to operational disagreements.

Dude/Ma’am/Ambiguous

Let me correct myself: “good enough”

I’m not expecting saints, but I’m also not expecting self-destructive degenerates.

You don’t need to allocate all your trust to someone. Just assign the minimal amount of trust that makes sense to get the job done to the proper standard, and no lower. (subjective)

Damn. That’s bad. I think it’d make more sense to single out the people causing problems and making the dumb decisions.

Lumping people into groups based on their political party feels rash, since on both sides there are good people who you could reasonably trust to do their jobs and make the country better.

The shotgun approach makes a bunch of noise and confuses anyone trying to figure out what’s going on.

No aggro. I’m lost. Is that hyperbole or actually happening? From what I’ve seen so far they’re just:

• deporting immigrants without ID and asking them to re-enter the country when they have the proper papers.

• sending MS13 gang members to a prison in El Salvador.

• making immature/rash economic policies as collateral for speeding up foreign affairs.

• the officials who are being deposed/suspended were being irresponsible, and not doing the job/role they’re paid by the public to perform.

• for DOGE (probably out of context, but I’ll still say), they’re just digitizing processes of record keeping in governance. They had issues starting out because they where recklessly trying to map out the system by pulling random plugs and flicking switches to see what they were working with. I’d expect that when they finish, they’d add redundancies so whoever maintains the system after them has the divide of testing and production servers.
