    not being motivated enough to vote against != support in terms of claiming a popular mandate. If I just don't care who wins, you can't say I support either candidate. At most you c…

    Eh. You can’t claim the non voters all implicitly support him though since they didn’t know the outcome ahead of time. I’ll agree they didn’t sufficiently oppose him ahead of the 2…

    49.5% of 65% of eligible voters voted for him.. hardly a majority any way you slice it, either of voters or of the broad population.

    And to add: the new features are take or leave it. you're right, who cares about new features on _twitter_, it was ossified already. Becoming the worst place on earth is a far weig…

    I dont know; they may well have been on the ads and moderation side. And they did add the hangouts/voice calls stuff, but that may have been an acquisition, I'm not sure.

    On the other hand while yes it's still running, twitter is mostly not releasing new features, and has completely devolved into the worst place on the internet. Not to mention most …

    I am certain you can find more than one quote of his relating to Project 2025. In any event this also doesn't disagree with what I said more broadly, which is, he was not forthrigh…

    Filing is a challenge, and the rules governing what most people pay are simple. You’re just being obtuse. We can stop now.

    That people don’t know how to do it and thus many pay companies to do it for them. Most of these people’s taxes are extremely simple from a tax code perspective.

    Everyone pays $1 and $1 only is not simple enough? Can’t please some people.

    Thought experiment: taxes for everyone are $1 but you have to climb to the top of an icy glacier to place a single dollar bill in a collection box. Is it easy to file these taxes?
