Questions: Society & Politics

Mentioning no names, but you've probably come across a few on here.

Just for fun, I'll unblock all 10 people I've blocked in nearly 10 years on here, until each tells a lie, refuses to accept a fact, or gratuitously insults me.

Just to get people started: Trump didn't win the majority of votes in 2016 or 2024. Even the finest dust will fall down in a vacuum, there's literally nothing there for it to be suspended in. Masks do help reduce the spread of Covid. Social distancing does, too. Vaccines work. Preventing less than 100% of something bad is not the same as preventing 0%, it is often still worthwhile. The US has a higher rate of knife murders than the UK, and that's less than 30% of US murders. There is no crisis of crime in US cities, in fact the crime rates have been going down. Trump's administration brought a convicted murderer convicted for brutally killing three people back to the US and set him free (Spain might be allowed to request he be caught, extradited, tried and re-convicted for the crime he was spending 30 in prison for, but nobody knows where he is.)

Feel free to post friendly wagers on how long each will last!
