No, you didn’t mention “than in the US,” so people assumed you were sharing an American perspective under an article about US states’ cost of living.

Greetings from your southern neighbor!

You’re all playing right into their hands.

Correct. Ask any of these people “defending” women’s sports to name a dozen non-male athletes. Ridicule them upon failure to do so.

That makes quite a lot of sense, yeah. Different regions be different, who woulda thunk :D

While I understand that it’s a useful, effective measure, I’m amazed that it’s needed at all. Most of Europe, despite having a comparable or on paper lower wealth status, has never heard of this as far as I can tell, and the introduction of the practice isn’t being discussed. What gives the US needs it?

Well said. Just a nitpick, of the two bigger parties (ignoring anything <3% here) which didn’t succeed in entering parliament, one is starkly not leftist (FDP, free democrats, i.e. “free market”), and the other is arguably financially left, but socially right (BSW, alliance Sahra Wagenknecht, a very young party that split off from the Left (the leftist party which made it into Bundestag) due to internal differences.

Why doesn’t this compare time spent traveling over mileage traveled (genuine question)?

One would expect the vast majority of planes to be faster than the vast majority of trains, so of course they’d have less accidents per mile traveled even if the same number of accidents occurred (I think).

Whereas with time spent, maybe as an additional data point, it becomes fairer to compare, right?

Maybe, but did you just compare millions of human beings’ suffering to a handful of insects?

Besides, why are you comparing individuals’ indifference to God’s (potential) indifference? I don’t think that’s a fair comparison.

Which of those things did the aforementioned non-white christians [they probably meant non-christians, but whatever] cause specifically?

Edit: Did 100% of the people in those groups cause this?

Right, that makes sense, thank you.

that figure must be of the overall population.

I’d thought so, but forgot there’s actually people who cannot vote (shocker), so in my mind I went “okay, near-70% turnout, so why didn’t he get closer to 35% rather than 20?”… but this in addition to the turnout this time being lower than I remembered makes waaaay more sense, lol.

Is voting participation that low?!

billion is a thousand millions, not a million millions

Aw shucks, wasn’t aware.

Medically necessary?

You mean those who we should just let die, lest they undergo something that would prevent them from becoming a baby machine? /s

Cold-ass response. Imagine you’re the dude and were reading along here and maybe for the first time realizing that people don’t like you specifically for your actions.
