Do you have an example of another democracy with freedom of speech that has deported someone with residency for being part of a protest against said country?

Bikes were and still are a revolutionary technology.

I see it as blue

Cosmetic surgery on the genitals of newborns unable to consent.

If Elon Musk had suddenly died days before he accused that diver who saved those children from that cave of being a pedophile, he would’ve been remembered as the real life Tony Stark that never got the chance to bring us to a new golden age. But now he’s viewed as a shitty James Bond villain.

I don’t know if Marx would disagree with individual artists owning the intellectual right to their artworks.

And if you asked Lemmy about how long copyright should last, I doubt that Ayn Rand would approve.

Two-thirds of all time global journalist deaths, or two-thirds of global journalist deaths this year?

Both alternatives are horrendous of course, but it is unclear which it is.

The police chief may have coined the phrase, but the president still used it.

Ah, that makes more sense. I misread. With all of the horror stories I hear about American health care, it seemed farfetched, but not entirely out of the realm of possibility.

Emergency Room Visit Denials

Wait, do American hospitals charge people for visiting patients in the ER? Or is this about reimbursements for transport and parking?

I expect that I will assume I’m living in the hottest year on record every year for the rest of my life.

I fully agree with what you are saying, but are you sure you responded to the intended comment? I was asking for examples of calls to kill all men being lauded, celebrated and/or encouraged.

When I did a Google search of #killallwhitemen, I found plenty of articles about how controversial it was, not celebrations and encouragements.

And there is a giant leap between a thought exercise about how women feel unsafe around men, and encouraging calls to kill all men.

“Kill all men” - Lauded, celebrated, even encouraged.

Do you have an example of this? Because as someone whose suggested death would be celebrated, I’ve not seen those reactions myself.

Do you have any examples?

What would accurate odds in the previous two presidential elections look like to you?

Here is a direct quote from 538:

538’s forecast is based on a combination of polls and campaign “fundamentals,” such as economic conditions, state partisanship and incumbency. It’s not meant to “call” a winner, but rather to give you a sense of how likely each candidate is to win. Check out our methodology to learn exactly how we calculate these probabilities.

In 2016 they gave Hillary Clinton a 71.4 % chance of winning, and in 2020 they gave Joe Biden 89 % chance of winning. They are dealing in odds, not calls.

And even if it isn’t getting through to you, how were they wrong in 2020?

If I told you that you had a five in six chance to roll the dice and not roll a one, and then you rolled the dice and got a one, was what I told you wrong?

They don’t call elections. They tell you the odds.
