I convinced my inlaws to stop bagging or raking their leaves a few years ago, and they're everywhere now. Not as many as if the whole neighborhood has done it, but more than when I met them.

The political climate in America is deeply imbalanced. Right-wing violence is so common because it is tacitly or openly sanctioned by the state—it aligns with existing power structures. This is why, historically, regular Germans didn’t rise up against the early Nazi movement: the violence was coming from those the state favored. When left-wing groups try to mimic these tactics—like impersonating secret police or kidnapping elites—they invite swift and deadly repression. The government does not treat both sides equally. One is shielded; the other is crushed.

In some situations, it's hard to tell if correlation indicates causation. Why the right wing doesn't win Nobel peace prizes is not one of them.

"The phenomenon revealed difference in human color perception..."

Yes, you're becoming a part of the joke. People LITERALLY see the dress differently. It doesn't matter what the objective facts are. TBH, it says a lot about humanity. Even when we have evidence that subjective experiences can vary, and even contradict each other, we still end up arguing over whose viewpoint is "correct".

I'm not familiar on recent history, but from what I know about Japan in WWII, this is a pretty big deal right?

That person sounds absolutely insufferable.

The problem isn't any particular religion, but extremism across all religions.

Similarly, the problem isn't any one system of governance, but authoritarianism rising across all systems of governance. As in, horseshoe theory is bullshit.
