10 deaths versus 4.
Lies, damned lies, and statistics…
Seer of the tapes! Knower of the episodes!

How do people fall for this guy’s lies? He’s not even good at it…
One is high fantasy, the other is satire. They may be technically very similar, but as far as tone and mood they are very different beasts. Like Star Wars and Spaceballs.
It goes on to say that they did this in public while recording themselves.
$48k per month?
It’s the second largest multi-ethnic democracy on Earth.
Election in November.
And neither of us will be the first person proven wrong on our respective points.
You’re hardly the first person to think they can kill their way to Utopia. It has never worked.
That’s from FO4. I don’t think it appeared in any other game.
Normalizing political violence will inevitably, and possibly literally, blow up in your own face.
There’s a quest where you find a ghoul child locked in a refrigerator on the side of the road (it’s implied he’s been in there since the war). You have the option of selling him to a named member of the gunners.
“He would say things similar to that on occasions to blow off steam. But I wouldn’t take them literally every time he did it,” Mr Barr said, adding: “At the end of the day, it wouldn’t be carried out and you could talk sense into him.”
So either we’re counting on people to refuse the president’s orders, or we’re hoping the Trump is more mature than he lets on?
How about not electing people who would even entertain such an idea in the first place?
Not exactly the same problem. In the same way that gun control doesn’t address the problem of hostile foreign militaries. Yes, both involve guns, but the laws and policies that address one are inapplicable and inappropriate to the other.
The law in question addresses the problem of foreign adversaries having easy access to manipulate US public opinion. The law you suggest addresses the problem of advertisers having that access. Both are serious concerns, both need to be addressed, but they are not the same problem and the solutions are markedly different.
require every company operating within the US to show users exactly what data is collected and allow them to delete any or all of it as desired
That would be a very different kind of law from the one we’re talking about.
That’s the opposite of what the court said.
Well, no. The courts struck down Trump’s Tiktok ban because he used an executive order that overstepped his authority.
Tiktok has been a subject of national security concerns since at least 2020.
That’s a separate issue that could not be addressed with this kind of law anyway.
Or, 1/50th the death rate of the general US population.
