Theoretically, if this happened, what exactly would happen to folks like me born and raised in California but living out of state?

I'm curious as to why you think it's "lame as fuck". Does it harm you? Does it harm them? Does it fucking harm anybody? Does it just seem like a quickly little weird thing that you don't do but others might? The answer to one of those questions is, "Yes".

You can thank Sigmund Freud's nephew Edward Bernays

The interest does not come from lending the money. Heck, the DEBT doesn't even come from lending the money. Banks can basically create money to loan with out of thin air thanks to fractional reserve banking.

Bud, you need to take a breath. This was a thing before social media, I promise you. It's not a psy op.

It's simple, toxic masculinity throughout the post war period led to a lot of men lying about their height (same for women and their weight during the same period). Over time public perception of what a tall person looked like shifted, and now every woman thinks that 6 ft is average height.

This phenomenon came out of American advertising, not Russian agents.

It's 3/5. It was literally called the 3/5 compromise. Please history

I'm inclined to say 2, just for form and shape. But it looks to chunky. Like probably heavy af. So I'll choose 3.

P.s. thanks for giving me a new thing I didn't know was linked to my neurodivergence
