Yeah, but he also is not trying to win the other side over, just the ones that still somehow think that both sides are rational. The polls are tied because these kind of messages go through. This is how he wins over people beyond MAGAs.
He doesn't care about the journalist. He is talking to the audience and the ones that are not already repelled by him have just heard 3 minutes of concern about the evil immigrants sent by dictators that are raping children. He got everything he could have asked about the exchange, including making the reporter seem insensitive and uncaring. Remember, he is not talking to you, he has no chance to win you over, it's about the rest of the audience.
Why? He got through his whole discourse and the people he is talking to don't give a fuck about the specific question. He got the air time he wants and the video going viral amplified it times 100.
He is not talking to us, he doesn't give a fuck about us. To the ones he is talking to, though, he has delivered a whole message where he is very concerned about a lot of very important issues and the journalist is focusing on a small irrelevant point. He got his discourse out, all of it. The people he is talking to don't give a fuck about the journalist's point. 1/3 of the voters won't ever vote for them. 1/3 of the voters will always vote for them. This video just let him deliver a message to the remaining 1/3 saying "won't somebody think about the children" and "dictators are sending their criminals here and you worry about crime data in another country.". Yes, he got what he wanted out of that exchange. This https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xuaHRN7UhRo explains exactly the point.
I don't know what you guys are seeing, but it is quite clear that Trump's guy won this exchange. It was probably the best result he could expect. And that is before the interview became viral and millions upon millions got to hear his whole speech delivered. The journalist is well intentioned, but the result is catastrophic.
Palestine is not a breakaway region. It has never been recognized as a part of Israel and its people are most definitely not treated as Israelis. This makes the stance on Palestine easier to understand.
There are records of population dying from diseases, but the magnitude was known only recently. And the records they destroyed were mainly Aztec and Inca, which are known as large civilizations, as opposed to the amazonian ones. It's now that they were nice, it's that there was no knowledge that there was anything to search. Only the quest for El Dorado counts and has been regarded for the longest time as looking for a fairy tale.
Come on! There is a reason why the fights against the Aztecs and Incas is called a conquest and none in the rest of the Americas is called like that and it is precisely because there wasn't enough of a civilization to make an organized war instead of being just massacred, enslaved or subdued.
It is very normal to assume that if you don't find anything suggesting a large civilization, there isn't any. We are just discovering that we didn't find anything because it was covered over by nature. Nothing different than what happened with North American cities that have also been found in a similar way or with a lot of the Mesoamerican pyramids or even in Egypt 200 years ago.
If you have no understanding of germ theory or how you could indirectly lead to the death of 90% of the population before you even set foot in a place and by the time you do, nature has swallowed everything and the few remaining survivors don't have written records of the history, it's not going to be the normal assumption that there used to be a large civilization in there, especially since some other places did have a more tribal civilization, so it wasn't something strange.
This time it is more about lack of knowledge than European hubris, in my opinion.
I definitely think it should be more like a two component system, with Male/Female ratio as the x axis and sexuality or alcohol intake or number of cats in the house or whatever as the y axis.
She might not even have known that there is a different way of doing it. The guild had to tell her that she was owed money and benefits. That's different from taking somebody else's place. There is probably no entry process for newcomers to lean about better way, since it is not a company but a nebulous industry with thousands of independent actors in the game. That's why the guild is necessary, it's impossible to expect each new excited, clueless person with an idea to know and bargain for that on their own.
The problem will persist as long as the exploiters can do it. You will never get every person to individually negotiate the right way.
Game developers should also unionize at industry level. That way new developers would be protected right away and could not be exploited before they realize it. No need to dissuade them, although there probably will not be that many openings that often anymore.
