Name a single example. Politicians using their political power (soapbox) is not the same thing as government oppression
This is imagined nonsense.... The US has the most permissive definition of free speech in the world. Free speech is referring to freedom from government oppression, not freedom from societal consequences.
I bet you don't mind European immigrants.... Why? Are you allergic to melanin?

I'm having trouble squaring this data showing US emissions going down with the ever increasing consumption I see all around me in everyday life. I just don't buy it at face value.

I will never ride an EUC because of a design flaw due to physics: in order to slow down you must first accelerate.

The EUC works by tilting you forward to speed up, and tilting you backward to slowdown. So the control system has to always leave a margin in case you need to slow down or if max power is reduced. But if the battery dies faster than expected or you reach a steep downhill while already at top speed...too bad, nothing the system can do to keep you from faceplanting at max speed.

No thanks. Wheels are cheap, I'll take at least two.

Reading between the lines of the article he battled cancer for 14 months, but his wife is currently pregnant with their first kid. So they chose to have a kid knowing he was a 57 year old with an aggressive form of cancer.

People are not doing that. Real life is not the fox news segment you are describing. Either cite evidence for outlandish claims or they will be dismissed.

Your comment is suggesting that increased policing reduces homelessness and that welfare dollars are being spent on drugs.

Neither insinuation is supported by evidence.

Exactly! They are 'Tech Bros' because the industry is so misogynistic that most of the women have fled, yet they turn around and claim to be the victim of sexism. Absurd.
