The article claims "in droves" then doesn't give a number, or even an estimate.

Yes, exactly. It's best to just not have your voice heard. Don't vote now, and don't protest later.

What happened to the "nothing to hide" argument? It was eviscerated. It is not a good argument.

For non-Americans: I needed a translator for the acronyms

Literal Meaning:

RFK = Robert F. Kennedy Jr

HHS = Department of Health and Human Services

Meaning (my guess): A head of public health who will end up gutting health measures for the public so they get sick and have to spend more money in the private sector.

Am I close?

Worth it. Cars are an ongoing cost, and don't bring joy if you're not into them. I think you made the right choice, you chose joy.

That makes God a rapist who didn’t get consent.

If we take the story at face value, he did get consent.

And Mary said, “Behold, I am the servant of the Lord; let it be to me according to your word.”

Bernie Sanders hasn’t achieved anything in his entire useless life.

Look up his legislative record

They don’t work with a coalition to pass law,

Yeah, lets look up some stuff.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernie_Sanders#Legislation

In 2005, Rolling Stone called Sanders the "amendment king" for his ability to get more roll call amendments passed than any other congressman during the period since 1995, when Congress was entirely under Republican control. Being an independent allowed him to form coalitions across party lines

Instead they are normalized

Normalised to what? This doesn't help.

Each point on the graph is divided by the highest point, 100

There we go. So a spike could be 1 person, or millions of people.

Trump: "I stopped the genocide."

Us: "You made the genocide worse!"

Trump: "Worse? Or better?"

~~Oh no, I never said that they are only separable by time.~~

~~You may not have said it, but you typed it. Lets look at the replay.~~

~~And you can equate religions and cults because the only difference between the two is time.~~

It can’t only be time that transforms the one into the other

I agree with you here.

I just finished listening to Iron War by Matt Fitzgerald. I loved the descriptions of the history of the event, the history of each of the racers, and their future after the race. It helped me feel amped for my own exercise sessions. Are there other books like this?

Excluding Matt Fitzgerald's other books, of course.
