Acts 2:43-47 NASB2020 [43] Everyone kept feeling a sense of awe; and many wonders and signs were taking place through the apostles. [44] And all the believers were together and had all things in common; [45] and they would sell their property and possessions and share them with all, to the extent that anyone had need. [46] Day by day continuing with one mind in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, they were taking their meals together with gladness and sincerity of heart, [47] praising God and having favor with all the people. And the Lord was adding to their number day by day those who were being saved.

I guess I'm a dirty socialist for owning a Bible.

Ahh, see this is actually the first real, reasonable response so far.

Nowhere did I say I tolerated Nazis or Zionists. Y'all are hallucinating that.

People are real quick to jump to conclusions. THAT is the reason why phrases like "death to X" or "kill all Y" tends to make more enemies than friends whenever you step outside of your little echo chamber. So don't come whining when you get stuck with a ban.

TIL. For some reason I thought those were all made from other kinds of corn.

Only 1.5% of corn grown ever has been edible.

Are you talking about the difference between sweet corn and field corn? Because field corn is plenty edible... Just not for humans.

You could probably, for most regions in the world, make the reasonable assumption that, on average, the effect balances out; you might be able to drive somewhere and commit a crime, but so can someone else from somewhere else, and so on. Obviously, places which receive a lot of travel are exceptions to this rule, just like places where would-be criminal travelers reside (I'm looking at you, suburbia).

Of course, I'm just speculating in hopes someone else has some real data to back up my claims...

You've rightly pointed out how ridiculous it all is, but don't underestimate the effects of tangible consequences. Hearing about the orange man's foolish actions is much more abstract than not being able to afford your next meal. You can ignore the former, but even the most extreme ignoramus has a hard time ignoring the latter...

Being fair, they might've done it to make it a detestable as possible to force some kind of policy change... Still, it's hardly a joke anymore.

They built it. They're making money on it. Is that still satire?

Plainly: yes. Congress subpoenaed her by name, not title.
