I think I misunderstood what you were originally saying and we're more or less on the same side. My point was that it's not about saying "okay we'll stop caring about this" but about saying "this isn't the thing we need to be focusing attention on right now." I worded it very poorly.

I get what you're saying, but every rights movement has worked the opposite way. It's not about giving up ground, it's about picking one battle at a time. Gay people fought to be not killed, then fought to be accepted, then fought to be able to marry. It wasn't a single "equality" battle, it was a series of battles in a longer war. They didn't slide back immediately when they couldn't get married, they fought the next fight.
Some people really suck, but for a lot I think it's more misunderstanding or reluctance to let things change. There's many reasons. Labeling everyone who doesn't get on board with every facet of what you want means you're reducing your allies. And those people who are comfortable with one thing but uncomfortable with another may become more comfortable when they see that the first thing doesn't lead to the collapse of society.
The numbers feel too coincidental and so a theory like space-based voting machine fraud doesn't seem as outlandish as it should. At the same time, it attributes to these people a level of finesse and planning that I just don't see from them.
The brute force "suppress votes and lie constantly" is much more Trump's style. It's basically his whole brand.
It's not a real rule. More like a running joke, because she's had problems getting chicken dishes right more than anything else. It probably does not come across on a random comment on the Internet, but I do think it would be kinda crazy to actually have rules like that in a real relationship.
You read a lot of stuff I didn't write.
I'm married. I do most of the cooking anyway. My wife is banned from cooking chicken because of the last time. So... "<Wife's name>, we talked about this. No chicken. Let's go to the Mexican restaurant nearby tonight."
Sorry, I did not mean to imply that the US doesn't have bidets. My point was that I would like to leave the US, but having easy access to a bidet is a necessity for me when choosing the destination country.
I'll do a swap for free for, if I'm being honest with myself, any country that you can buy a bidet in.
Nah, at least in the US women buy these too or giant SUVs with the exact same problem. Maybe it was marketing to men that started it, but it certainly isn't exclusive.
Technically, you can already give power of attorney to others, or live with as many people as you want. You can grant access to your bank account to as many people as the bank will let you. I think the main thing you can't reproduce is a tax benefit, basically.
I am not trying to brake check people and get in an accident but I would very much like a signal for "Please remove your car from my butthole, it's getting uncomfortable."
I was thinking he only took Thanksgiving off every 4 years.
