    « Si je peux voler un petit pôle, je pense que la question qui guide ça, c'est est-ce que nationalisme et christianisme, c'est compatibles? Puis d'emblée, moi, on dirait que je ne voyais pas de contradiction parce que je me dis qu'on peut être les deux. »

The periods

The theme, year by year.

Political sentences on the theme by period; click a period to show it. The number also depends on the share of videos transcribed, which varies a lot from year to year.

How the arguments are drawn

The theme’s political sentences are drawn at random by period, with quotas per orientation and a cap per channel and per video. Our local model reads the sentences without knowing their channel or orientation, groups those making the same argument, separates those reporting it in order to contest it and sets aside those off the theme. Orientation shares and quotes come from the sentences, never from the model. The last seven days are read again every day.
