  • That’s not how it works. The Overton window is based on the population’s positions. In the US with it’s first-past-the-post voting, it creates a two party system. They then compete for 51% of the votes by taking positions, which establishes the Overton window. If in the primaries, Democrats elect a leftist candidate, then when they get to the general election, they will lose to the Republican because their side of the window will have more votes. What the Republicans did was create a sense of loyalty to their party so that they has a solid base of voters no matter what they do. They then only have to compete for a potion of the rest of the votes. This moves the Overton window farther right. This meme is aimed at the farther left voting base of the Democrats because it tells them that they are disenfranchised, so they should not vote. This is literally a low key Republican campaign ad.



  • Ooh, I think I’m getting it!

    When salt dissolves in water, is it because the elements of the molecule split so that sodium and chlorine are freely flowing in water themselves? Or is it because salt molecules are more attracted to water molecules than other salt molecules? If it’s the former, would adding another ionic element to the water change the salt to something else? If it’s the latter, why are they more attracted to other water molecules?

    So here’s the thing. Household bleach is sodium hypochlorite, which is technically a salt. They just sell it already dissolved in water at the right strength.

    What‽ That just 🤯

    Is household bleach a double ionic molecule because the oxygen and chlorine have an ionic bond, then that molecule has an ionic bond with sodium?
