MODERATORS
Gerrymandering is an actual brilliant way to ensure victory.
Yep, but it exists because of the existence of these districts in the first place. Which weren't put there because the founders figured the populus was particularly bright.
Cybertruck.
The current climate crisis.
A lot of Osha regulations.
Warning Labels on obvious things. Like "contains dairy" on a package of butter. At some point they need to stop and let Darwin take the wheel.
I like the “This product may contain nuts” on a packet of nuts.
It better contain nuts or I want my money back.
Most nuts are not even nuts.
Dairy is an allergen and has to be marked on packages by law in the states. There are also people who just avoid dairy, and non-dairy butter very much exists.
