Even birth on US soil if your parents were immigrants they’ve been questioning, even though it’s written into the Constitution.
I’m just stubborn, left during the blackout and didn’t want to go back.

What happened in 2002? Was that from the war on terror?
Don’t special government employees (like musk is) have a time limit if 130 days? Is this article just saying that 130 days is coming up soon? With all the laws they’ve broken, seems silly to assume they’d obey this one.
Guesting mostly coal power plants?
Edit: yup!
To extend the metaphor, it would be like discussing cold fusion with a fellow chemistry enthusiast. They imply that it works, and was shut down by political motives, but that it’s been discussed to death professionally, so no use discussing it further. I agree that it has been discussed to death, but their conclusion is opposite of the conclusion I have found online, so I would push for further support.
The answers I easily got online were opposite of what you were saying, hence my persistence.
But neither of us are political scientists. We’re both backyard chemistry enthusiasts in this metaphor. So when you claim something that doesn’t make sense with my cursory knowledge and searches, I ask you to back it up.
I did reread the thread. My summary still stands. Could you summarize your understanding of it?
Can you imagine how pointless, arrogant and entitled it would be for me, someone who has (as an example) no knowledge about chemistry, to go to a chemistry forum and ask an elementary question on an incredibly divisive topic within the chemistry field?
I actually love that. I love explaining engineering topics to friends and family when they have questions, even though they don’t have as much background. Do you not enjoy taking to people about your field?
What are you saying? That people who don’t have political science degrees shouldn’t participate in politics? The whole point of democracy is more people participating.
You seem to be holding yourself up as an authority, but I have no reason to think you are.
Your assertion was you can’t have an authoritarian communist. I gave a counter example of Stalin, an authoritarian communist. You seem unwilling or unable to refute that Stalin was authoritarian.
Can you answer my question too? Why is Google a bad thing? I know several of the OKB aircraft design bureaus were exiled/killed off the top of my head, but I didn’t want to mix them up and say the wrong one.
I was answering that in a different comment. This was my original question to you.
Are you seriously arguing that Stalin did not purge political opponents?
Was Stalin authoritarian? If massive purges to consolidate power aren’t authoritarian, I don’t know what is.
I’d define tankies as in favor of ‘communist’ authoritarianism.
I like to say ‘knock knock’ to get someone’s attention, seems to be a little less starting than a hand on the shoulder.
It’s impressive he can snap with a metal gauntlet, I wouldn’t think it’d give enough friction with the metal on metal.
