Covid had plenty of travel restrictions, took less than a week to set them up. There's already issue with people being falsely flagged as terrorist or other no-flight risk, and with some of the anti-leftist rhetoric it's not a big leap to make. Also it's entirely in line with Russia labelling LGBT as terrorists, which several GOP/MAGAts are breathing heavily over.

I hope you're right, I just don't see anything but decorum stopping them, and they've repeatedly thrown that out the window.

Just be careful to have plans for before they restrict travel. It's very popular with Russian allies, and similarly with other autocrats

Oh, so Trump is now running on the glory of the German republic? Seems like an odd shift in campaign strategy. /s

“Reich” doesn’t mean “Nazi”.

That might be true in german. But Trump's addressing the US, and particularly a demographic known to a) not speak german, b) associate "Reich"with the propaganda of the Aryan Third Reich of Nazi propaganda, which was the ideal to be ushered in by (and excuse) the Holocaust, Secret Police, Ghettos, systematic execution of homosexuals/disabled/colored, the subjugation of the lesser races, and other pastimes of the notoriously sympatico nazis.

Yeah, I'm sure you're right

Unfortunately I don't agree.

Good reasons to omit details include brevity, legibility, pedagogy and scope.

Showing the supporting evidence for all steps in an evidence chain is simply not feasible, and we commonly have to accept that a certain presupposed level of knowledge as well as ambiguity is necessary. And much of the challenge is to be precise enough in the things that need precision.

You're right to be sceptical until more data is presented, but saying no claim of progress is ever true is quite obviously a gross misrepresentation of our current reality. You are doing this on digital devices interconnected with millions of users ar staggering speed and latency. Every part of which are scientific claims.

There's a relevant physics anomaly called a Helmholtz resonator, or more broadly waveform interference.

🤣

Me calling you Shirley, no matter how much you insist you're Tom, doesn't make Shirley a slur, it just makes me a rude asshole.

I understand that this information is against your internal narrative, but a quick look at data for 2021 shows:

One in two women and one in five men felt unsafe walking alone after dark in a busy public place.

And data from 2022 shows 45% for the same measure.

As for harassment:

2022 - 55% of women 16-34 felt harassed

2021 - Three out of five, 60% felt harassed during the year.

Twice as many women reported being harassed as men, and several reported changing their behaviour because of harassment.

This is also echoed in international studies over multiple cultures. Women are much more often harassed than men, almost exclusively by men, and have more limited freedoms, expressions and rights than men.

This is not controversial, it is well established in study after study, there is an actual right answer to this, and it's not the one you're proposing.

How is it that you keep ignoring data when faced with it, and instead of presenting supportive data resort to arguing feelings and whataboutisms?

Edit: Link to 2022 raw data

From the study summary:

Three out of five women aged 16 to 34 years experienced at least one form of harassment in the previous 12 months

Three out of five is 60%.
