"Must be at least this tall to ride"

Small correction: Bounce rate going UP is what you're trying to achieve

Oh, okay fair enough. I meant in this comment section in particular.

I don't see any comments from progressives arguing that this is a good thing or that Democrats shouldn't have effective fundraising.

The logic being that there is ~$0.82 USD per KG of fuel cost that has to be accounted for

You only talk like that when you know you're being overheard (and maybe plan to leak it too)

I'm learning a new language right now and I find myself reflecting more and more about the strengths and weaknesses of English.

English is really good at a lot of things including humour and poetry. But it transforms overtime depending on region, culture, demographics, economics, marketing, and politics... which makes miscommunication happen ALL THE TIME.

I say this because you're both right, and it's frustrating because it limits our ability to have a meaningful conversation.

I hope it popularizes the idea of algorithmic control.

Canada (Ontario) here. Was taught explicitly to say "point three two"

Any chance he got all the data and access that he actually wanted, so now he's good?

I want mixed-member plurality (MMP)

Cornstarch!

Me too. Invested in my setup last year :(

I'm still glad they wrote the piece.

I think it could be more tactical than simply not using the correct word. Trump has been a grifter his whole life; selling people things and not delivering on them...entering into contracts and not honoring his side of the agreement.

Being a grifter is a pervasive and consistent theme in his life, so when he accuses others of grifting, it indirectly softens those same accusations when levied at him.

"Grift" not grit. Trump is bad-faith arguing that these public broadcasters offer no value and are just stealing from the public.

In reality this administration just doesn't like them because journalism and facts fly in the face of their misinformation, disinformation, and political propaganda/spin.

Every time we come up with a technical term to describe people with medical impairments to their intelligence, people begin using it as an insult.

I guess here's hoping "intellectually disabled" doesn't catch on (hopefully too wordy).

Well I don't give passes to Nazis (and the world is a bigger place than just the US). I guess I'll just vote in favour of policies that we both support, rally against policies and parties that we both hate, and continue to advocate for a more equitable world.

You might not call me an ally, but I'll call you one. (at least based on our limited interaction)

You're fighting me for some reason (a self described liberal), who also wants to move the world forward to build an equitable world. By your definition I might be a leftist, but I (and others) don't identify with that label.

"self-identifying liberals as they exist in the world today"

The world is a big place. Not sure if you mean "liberal" in the US context, "Liberal" as in the Canadian political party. "Neo-liberal" as in Economic position of Friedman economics, etc...

Leftist is also a relative term and isn't very useful. You likely believe in important structural reforms surrounding minimum wage (perhaps UBI), environmental protection, universal affordable/accessible healthcare, strict banking regulation, drastic progressive taxation, harsh penalties for white collar crime, etc... But "left" of what, I doubt youre pushing for authoritarianism or communism?

My point is there are literally Nazis we are fighting right now. Maybe stop with the infighting as a result of ambiguous labels.
