Polling…

As the political craziness ramps up across the US for the 2024 election, voters will see more polls taken and more of their results. My advice: Don’t participate in them, and don’t even look at the results! As an ex-scientist, I understand a bit about sampling theory and predictions of future results from a few… Continue reading Polling…

Politicizing the apolitical…

Governments—local, state, and national—are so politicized now that politicians spend all their time creating chaos and pointing fingers at the other side to blame them for it instead of solving the problems that need to be solved.

Urban vs. rural…

I’ve made a mistake in my analyses of the future of American democracy (or lack thereof): The next civil war won’t necessarily pit red states against blue states. Just like now when elections are often won in suburban America—let’s call that the conurbation of a major city instead to emphasize the connection with the urban—the… Continue reading Urban vs. rural…

The Jamaican diaspora…

This article is one of them, and it will also appear on https://stevenmmoore.com.] The reader can consider this article an homage to Harry Belafonte, whose soft but raspy voice made calypso music famous. I was a… Continue reading The Jamaican diaspora…
