Marketing Propaganda to the Brainwashed in the Midterms

Patty Murray has been a senator for thirty years. I wish she would retire, but, since she didn't and is running for her sixth term, I hope she wins the election. Her opponent, Tiffany Smiley, is running a highly effective campaign by marketing propaganda to lure those who can be brainwashed into voting for her to do so. Much of her marketing is devoted to associating Murray with Pelosi and Biden, which is true. They are all Democrats, so they all likely vote for the party platform when things come up for votes.

What would also be true, then, is that instead of aligning with Pelosi and Biden, she would align with Boebert and Greene, and would join others like Herschel Walker and Dr. Oz in bringing back Mitch McConnell as Majority Leader. Like Boebert and Greene, Smiley is a relatively young mother who touts her family values. Like Walker, you don't learn anything when she speaks. Like Dr. Oz, she is relying on a gullible audience that she can peddle her snake oil to. However, that is how marketing works. It is also how propaganda and brainwashing work.

What we have here, folks, is a failure to communicate, which is part of her strategy.

Answers to Questions that Nobody Asked Me

Here are some questions that nobody asked me but that I answered anyway to give people some things to think about.

Population Math, Gravity, and the Political Revolution

I was born in 1958. The world's population hit three billion people in 1960. The world's population is over 7.5 billion today. Based only on those numbers, we can determine that roughly seventy percent of the world's population must be younger than me.

However, every person who was alive when I was born who has since died, which is likely two-thirds or more of the three billion people alive back then, has been replaced by someone who is also younger than me. That means that I am among the oldest one billion people in the world.
