Actually facts are kind of important. They really do help and hinder cases. Attorneys usually like to prevail for their clients So yeah, attorneys care a lot about facts. But what I'm guessing you're reacting to is who gets to decide what are the facts.

Florida with its Republican supermajority is about to join the gotta provide your ID to do anything Republicans publicly feign indignation over and privately enjoy themselves. So much for less government interference. Hypocrites.

Your post is almost word for word what I was going to post, right down to the "I'm no finance guy." But yeah, greater concentration of wealth in the 1% in comparison to everyone else seemingly should result in increased tax share.

These P25 people are just so...hateful. Carrying all that hate seems like it would not be fun.

I see a lot of other people have responded with examples and argument.

So I'll disagree and say the argument falls apart when I don't argue. (Cause it's Friday. You ain't got no job. You ain't got shit to do. I'm gonna get you high today.)

Hmm I see what the dictionaries are saying but (using an example from above) I think argument exists that:

If me and my fellow protestors block a road, we are being non-violent, but we are not being peaceful.

But it's Friday and no time for argument!

Early to mid 20th century??! Dang, double space was seemingly still very much in fashion even after Y2K. Welp, gotta go yell at some kids on my lawn.

Remember when Trump moved the US embassy to Jerusalem declaring Jerusalem the capital of Israel? People are kill-informed if they think things get better for the Palestinians under Trump 2.0.

Same with me. Anytime I hear or read butterfly I always picture the Monarch. It was always the one we had in a terrarium in primary school to watch the stages of development--which looking back was pretty as a kid. Hell, as an adult metamorphosis is still pretty amazing.

If you want to know if an issue has real potential consequences, in this instance climate change, see what insurance companies are doing about it. Live in a state where wildfires or hurricanes are an issue? As droughts increase and ocean temperatures increase, your homeowners insurance is going up significantly faster than ever before. Insurance companies exist to make money and they spend huge sums in actuarial predictions to keep making that money.
