Political tribalism in USA
----------------------------
Political tribalism is currently responsible for much of the narrative control we see today.
Different media organisations decide on their political slant and then everything they publish is tainted by and filtered through this lens.

Although it’s not just media organisations that do this. People do it too. As ad man Dave Trott highlighted in an eye-opening blog post this week.

He wrote about Dennis Hof, who was elected to Congress in Nevada in the recent midterms.

Hof was a pimp who owned five brothels. He had also been dead three weeks on the day of the vote.

From Trott’s blog:
His body was found by porn star Ron Jeremy and a prostitute who worked for Hof.

So why would the people of Nevada elect a dead pimp?

Because the law in Nevada is, if they die, the winning candidate is replaced by a member of their own party.

So Dennis Hof would be replaced by a Republican, that was all the voters cared about.
They preferred anyone, even a dead pimp, to a Democrat.
Jennifer O’Kane, who had been repeatedly raped by Hof, said “No Democrat was going to win, that’s just politics.”
That’s what’s happening in America: the Montagues and the Capulets.
Nobody is really listening to what any of the candidates are saying, no one cares.
Policies won’t change anyone’s mind: Republicans just hate Democrats and that’s that.

It’s like gang warfare, the Bloods versus the Crips, on a national scale.


Cognitive scientist Steven Pinkerin his latest book, Enlightenment Now, described political tribalism as, “the most insidious form of irrationality today.”

Bought it yesterday at 210.5 but sold quick at 208 as there was no bounce. Glad I did. Looking to get back in today if the price holds up.

This isn't being held back at all. It is going through a classic consolidation period. Low volume, bouncing between a tight range of around 2%. The market is waiting for news that's all. There is currently no catalyst to move this either way.

Dominic Raab has resigned as Brexit secretary.

His resignation comes after Prime Minister Theresa May secured cabinet support for her Brexit withdrawal agreement following a five-hour marathon meeting last night.

Former UBS trader Kweku Adoboli 'on the Heathrow tarmac' ahead of imminent deportation

Former UBS rogue trader Kweku Adoboli could be deported to Ghana this evening, his legal team has said.

The 38-year-old, who left Ghana at the age of four and has lived in the UK for 26 years, is believed to be waiting on the tarmac at Heathrow airport ahead of his imminent deportation.

Adoboli was convicted on two counts of fraud in 2012 after his unauthorised trading lost the Swiss banking giant £1.8bn – and in 2014 the Home Office issued him with a deportation order on the grounds that he was a foreign criminal.

He was released from prison in 2015 after serving around half of his seven-year sentence.

In September he was spared deportation just hours before his flight was scheduled to leave and then released from detention.
But on Monday he was again detained after a judicial review was once again dismissed by a judge.
His lawyer Jacqui Mackenzie said he was set to board an Air Morocco flight at 5pm.

Labour MP David Lammy criticised the move and its timing amid the final stages of a Brexit deal.

He said: “As the press is consumed by Brexit, the Home Office is about to deport Kweku Adoboli to a country he hasn't lived in since the age of four.

“This is a disgrace and brings great shame on the UK.”

I think we will see a declaration of RNS soon

[hootza616] 15/11/2018 09:27

Heard this a few times here, so in your opinion yopf, how does a share like BOO get "held back"

[yopf] 15/11/2018 09:24

Convinced this is being held back for a reason. This coming week is going to be interesting in the run-in the cyber trading day.

[hootza616] 14/11/2018 18:19

[christh] 13/11/2018 12:19

215 likely to be tested...

[christh] 13/11/2018 11:13

Dow Jones will open up about 500 points and maybe higher.

Get ready for the Xmass rally!
