Agreed. Depending on what portion of turn out though, I’m just not sure it necessarily fits behind the lead “you don’t know Japan”. And with that lead, it seemed like there was more to say about what Japan is actually like.

That said, they’re likely Japanese with far better English skills than I have in Japanese and I’m possibly being overly harsh

It’s possible for both things to be true isn’t it?

Your source mentions that she is popular with young people but that her party is not popular with young people. It also mentions that young people don’t have a high voter turnout. With Japans aging population and the information in your link, that could still mean that she is popular with young people but the net effect from young voters is still tiny. I couldn’t find any good sources for actually breaking down the demographics of her popularity though.

Also, why do a hit on run on someone trying to answer a question, and not take a shot at the question itself, or let people know why you didn’t try to answer the question?

🤦‍♂️ Don’t put words in my mouth to try to make an argument

live “trash streaming”, in which he was physically assaulted or humiliated as viewers watched live and sometimes donated money.

Its a video so tough to quickly scan so I didn’t watch it. To keep the block in that plane, I think that needs the forces to be to magnets pulling towards each other at the back and that seems like it would make the tuning hard since tightening / loosening each string moves and rotates the block holding the strings. Did they say much about that?

Ahh… they don’t look at qualities from a century ago. ie. They’re not blocking joining because a century ago a countries currency was unstable. The criteria checks are for qualities / legislation of the country now with some of those measurements needing windows of time, but not as far back as you’re suggesting

And a century isn’t exactly accurate. Some terrible things were done after that and there are still improvements to be made. But it’s tough to make the case it’s a similar timescale to Israel or the EU checks

Yeah, by memory Rupert Murdoch had his hand at that and in Aus and the UK. I’d love to see that reined in again too

Humans have been killing each other as long as we’ve existed isn’t an argument to avoid trying to make it happen less

For others here, I use kagi and turned the LLM summaries off recently because they weren’t close to reliable enough for me personally so give it a test. I use LLMs for some tasks but I’m yet to find one that’s very reliable for specifics

So, it’s just something some people think might be true, like a bogeyman, or there’s some evidence for a statement by an author in the document somewhere?

Agreed, Miller is mighty messed up but that statement, for now, seems to be coming from nowhere

I failed to find much data for France but it looks like for the US there is a slight downward trend with wage so no rich having lots of babies and no middle class not having babies:

Why wasn’t the lower class included in the statement? If it’s because they’re breeding like rabbits then “it kind of sounds like replacement theory”. I don’t know why that group was omitted but it leaves that interpretation open

When you learn about how project 2025 theorizes that the US population ideally should be 100 million

Where does it say that? (Scroll down to see the downloads)

Admittedly, I’ve only skimmed the document but I don’t recall seeing that mentioned, and I haven’t heard people say it about project 2025 before

A lot of genAI now links to sources, that are frequently wrong, and I haven’t noticed that changing fanboys obnoxious praising them

Yeah, my pedantic unnecessary retort was going to point out the GDP thing but then note that there’s some interesting commentary around saying “size” when five Canadian provinces are larger. But mostly that was me still being annoyed at the Davos soundbites

That’s pretty funny. Both that I didn’t get his name right (I’ll put it down to him being irritating in a way I block things out); and that I got three comments effectively pointing out that California has a GDP higher than most countries without pointing out the name was wrong.

My grammar is admittedly pretty farm boy, so I thought I’d check. This might be saying the sentence was fine. But either way what your suggesting is nothing like how I hear people speak

Some authorities prescribe that restrictive relative clauses (where the relative clause is part of the identification of the noun phrase) should only use that as the introductory pronoun, and non-restrictive relative clauses should only use which or who/whom as the introductory pronoun. In practice, either pronoun is commonly used to introduce a restrictive relative clause, including in edited prose. In contrast, it is not usual in edited written English to use that to introduce a non-restrictive relative clause, though there are occasional rare attestations.

I saw at least one typo there and figured I’d leave it for you

Fair. The US state with the next largest GDP is Texas and Greg Abbott is there

There must be 1000s of people that lead a state that aren’t there (given ~200 countries). What makes this guy’s presence so special? Or, perhaps, his presence is also out of place
