Lexual Says #18: November 2020 (Patreon)
Content
I filmed this on MONDAY NIGHT and already a bunch of stuff has happened since that I would have liked to have discussed. But this is still a must-watch! In the above video I discuss nationwide elections and seek to present a full picture of what's going down over the next four years. If you're new to Intelexual Media, this episode will go well with the entire series, Lexual Does The 70s. I think it is really naive of people (or at least a demonstration of their commitment to pure optimism) to say that "the republican party is done" just because Trump has been voted out of office. Trump is one aspect of something much bigger and more dangerous, which I address in this 31-minute video! I also talk about COVID-19, which is only becoming more common and still no less dangerous.
Also before I get ripped to shreds, I'd like to say that my comment that Trump won the largest share of non-white voters since 1960 was based on preliminary information that has now changed. This is why I prefer to let time pass when it comes to hot topic issues! Read more about that piece of misinformation here.
Enjoy the video. Posting more content in the next few days, pinky promise! ;)
