Of course, in Python, you can slice with [start:end:step], so it is valid to do list[:3:3] for double the happiness. Not that you'd ever practically do so.

I really did assume this post was ironic. Worrying number of people here really concerned that Trump is going to come deploy Navy SEAL team six to their house for calling him a poopypants.

And he is a poopypants.

executed at Gitmo under the Trump dictatorship for being mean to him online

It really, really won't. There are many good reasons to maintain opsec, thinking this is a likely outcome is not one.

On the other hand, I think some people are quite paranoid. There's a balance to be had.

I'm late to respond, but heck yeah, thanks for this reply. Exactly what I imagined.

What I'm hearing is that the left should start demanding to double the population with exclusively trans people, effectively a -100% murder rate. Then the middle ground will be 0% and centrists can finally agree.

I highly doubt it's even the world's shortest international bridge. Many nations' borders follow a tiny brook or stream, which will likely be bridged at some point.

I already know and agree with what you've said here. I would happily concede that both of our positions lack good evidence for a wide, systematic effect.

I can only share my experience which is proof that, at least in my tiny part of the world, these protests have worked. You're very welcome to have anecdotal evidence to the contrary, I was just sharing my own and I'm unsure why I'm getting logic'd for it. I think perhaps you're inferring a much larger claim from my words than I was trying to make.

The claim does lack evidence, I agree! I'm only speaking anecdotally - But that's a little more evidence than the claim that the protests don't work.

I know a couple people who outspoken about climate change for scientific or observable reasons.

But I know more who are outspoken because they're polarised against fuddy-duddy conservative anti-climate-protestor attitudes.
