This is probably the best way to deal with someone in these situations. No insults, no arguments, just "I thought you were smarter than that". It might actually make them think about it rather than dismiss you out of hand.

But she doesn't have more moderate views than the rest of her party. The article mentions several of her policy ideas that are as or more extreme than what the party line is.

I feel you on the radio aspect, I cycle through all my presets on my 25 minute commute because so many of them are just ads for 5 minutes. And for some reason my rural area has 4 classic rock stations but I can't find one that plays anything modern but pop and pop-country.

I took it to mean "it has increased to the point we can't deal with it all"

Great to hear, that is actually a lot better than I would have expected. It would still be ideal if you could use it as easily as someone not using a wheelchair but we do have to live in the real world and accommodating everyone is complicated and expensive.

Absolutely it could be like that, mixed use buildings are something we really lack in North America and are the lifeblood of a city

Or, if we're changing cities already we could make more accessible homes and public transit. If someone in a wheelchair can't get onto a train you've made the train wrong.

You're looking at it backwards, he's the head of the party so he must have worked very hard.

These sorts of things always make me wonder how much of this is hubris and how much is stupidity. Do they really not see how bad it is to just replace your search results without telling you and charge advertisers for you not searching their brand or did they know and just didn't think that anyone could catch them?

We constantly hear about executives being completely out of touch with the real world, but we also see them just not understanding the basics of business. It really could be either but it's probably a fair bit of both.

Up to 50% of homeless people in the states work full or part time.

Slipknot all day everyday. Fast to tie and untie nothing to lose like a clip or a rubber band. Plus it's just a small bit of fun
