Especially since Trump could also hurt his Amazon and BlueOrigin properties It’s not like Trump voters give a shit about what WaPo says. Lamestream media cries go all the way back to Sarah Palin.

Unless it prevents you from successfully mating with a partner and producing offspring that survive and also reproduce, there's nothing stopping it from carrying forward in the population.

There's significant construction work being done in our neighborhood. Lots of excavators and roads being dug up, new water drain lines buried, etc. Got to speaking with a member of their crew yesterday. Tall muscular guy, mid-40s. Said he's a former Marine. Spent some time in a motorcycle gang. Did tattoo work, even corporate security before moving into large city funded construction projects. Within a few minutes, he'd shared that racism isn't real and is just a media invented narrative, that Hitler didn't hate "the Jews" and was mostly just mad bc they tried taking his gold away from him, that Hitler even had black Nazis controlling things in Africa so "stop believing all the lies," he shared that "the largest slave owners were actually the native americans," and he even started scrolling through photos and social media posts on his phone to show me and prove all of this was real and relevant as he next moved into commenting that "Nixon moving away from the gold standard is what set all of our problems into motion." It's not simple vaccinating against this. I could've knocked down each of those claims one by one, but he'd just Gish Gallop into 20 more that support his preconceptions. Critical thinking diseases in meme'd minds is an extremely real problem.

The "manosphere" seems to apply here, too. It's a prominent grouping mechanism in this current election with toxic tones. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manosphere

They did vote in 2016, just a smaller fraction of them. He's looking to significantly expand the footprint of those doing so this year. Agreed. You're not cynical. You're paying attention.

Masonry bits should be sharpened at 135 degrees.

Harris is clearly making a play for paleo-Republicans and Independent voters. Trump, however, is making a play for voters who normally don't vote, specifically males with misogynistic and racist tendencies. I'm unsure (and uncomfortable) that the middle of the road never-Trumper numbers being sought after by Harris et.al will be enough to counterbalance the "let's burn the whole effing thing down" voters sought after by Trump et.al.

Did it involve essential oils and investments in crypto currencies?

Placebo effect far more likely

Your dreams reflect your conscious brain trying to make sense of unconscious activity and striving to apply a narrative to that makes sense in context of the items you’re thinking about while awake. You’re obviously thinking of physics concepts and sci interfere that’s the frame under which your mind explains your dreams to yourself. Nothing to do with quantum theory tho

Yes, I can. So can google.

Copy pasted newbie. No thx

It's a half truth. Inflation from quantitative easing and "printing money" could lead to inflationary effects. It's just not the root cause of the inflation most people are bitching and moaning about right now. That was due to supply chain shocks globally at the same time that families received rapid unexpected injections of cash to prevent collapse of the system. This would potentially help with inflation since it would remove liquidity from the system (i.e. poor people stop spending money and the reduction in spending would lead to lowering of costs vendors and manufacturers charge), but a far superior weapon is increasing interest rates since it's not regressive and has the benefit of impacting everyone all at once.

Social engineering efforts from allies and enemies alike are clearly in full swing

That was already clear. Thank you. So, just to confirm, no answer to this question I asked? >> Which "laws of nature" specifically do you believe electric cars break or have the potential to break?

Maybe, but so long as you're not willful and obstinate about it, most ignorance can be resolved with education and critical thinking. Subsidies and lobbying have played a fairly sizable role in this, too. Which "laws of nature" specifically do you believe electric cars break or have the potential to break?

Uhuh. In 1900, 38% of the cars in the United States were electric, compared to 22% that were gasoline-powered

And you’re welcome to believe any ridiculous ignorant thing you want. That is your right.

Prime video is an Amazon property

This is a category error since humans ARE animals… but we’ve already covered this and you’ve already chosen to ignore it. Lather. Rinse. Repeat. Righty-oh. Got me there. Lol

Also known as the egocentric / self-serving biases

Something basically nobody here cares about in any way whatsoever.

You share many unfounded personal opinions as if they were indisputable facts. You should stop doing that. On another note, unsurprised you failed to name even one. Thanks for confirming you’re not here engaging in good faith.

We don’t need to go “as far back as recorded human history.” Please name one human being who had the ability to “build supercomputers” before 1900. Just one. Go ahead. I’ll wait. If you cannot, then we have yet another example of you arguing in bad faith.

We didn’t see humans doing it until this generation, either. Your positions here are laughable and childish.
