Now, at the beginning of the year i had Real GDP growing at 2% in 2025. Let's see how this projection has played out so far. It is late November so 2025 projections by reasonable authors should be damn close.

i am talking about assessing my support level in relation to a flag. you do not know what i support. you do not know what the confederate flag wavers support or not support. i do not know either. if i were waving a confederate flag you would not know.. if i were burning a Canadian flag you would not know anything either.

you know i'm stirring up trouble... that's about it.

One can take a wild stab at it. Humans are quite good at generalising and noticing patterns, even if they ain’t gonna 100% be on the money every time.

If I see some chick with teal hair and a bunch of piercings, I’m not sticking my house on it but neither am I going ‘Hm, it’s a 50:50 shot she’s liberal or conservative.’

Hey this bloke has a Palestinian flag hanging from his house, I wonder if he’s pro-Israel?

Your public actions says something about how nuanced your take is usually. If you start burning flags, waving flags, march with certain groups,.. there's a whole set of ideas that can probably be tied to you. The less pronounced the action, the more nuanced it becomes imo. Therefore, it's only very radicalized that start hurting/killing people.
I don't need many exchanges - even a few sentences will do - for me to understand what someone's underlying ideology usually is.
