Otherwise on the current track the US will be unable to service it’s debt.

I’m in this image, and I do not like it.

False flag crossed my mind as well, but it would require an absolutely massive conspiracy between federal, local LE, and some very dumb hicks that simply could not happen unnoticed.

They’re coming for you even then if you aren’t rich.

Yep. There’s “rich” relative to most folks, then there is couldn’t-spend-all-my-interest-income-in-a-thousand-lifetimes rich.

The real leopards know which is which.

Unless you are white, male, CIS-het, and an evangelical Xian, they are coming for you to. You’re just a bit further down the list.

And many parents working two jobs while living in a food desert have few good alternatives. Ain’t got the time nor money.

That’s a fair point and needs to be explored. But the study does not do what it says on the tin.

There are plenty of valid reasons for wanting one. I’m not against them. They just don’t suit my particular use case, and I hate deliberately misleading studies.

Folks this is a garbage study. N=18, and then extrapolating the dangers based on aggregated stats of disease states?

Fair enough point in general, sure.

Yeah I saw this over on Mastodon, and there were a lot of stats folks questioning the methodology. I’m not qualified to do that, but my sons are Zoomers as are all their male friends, and they are all good feminists. This is in NW Europe, so might be a bit biased.

Fair enough. But if you don’t tell someone why you are unhappy with them or the situation they control, then nothing improves for anyone.
