  • Obviously I'm the problem for pointing out WHY you're so incorrect. There really is no way to sugarcoat it enough for you to do any sort of introspection. Once you cool down a bit from how mean I am, maybe you should think about why you thought White women voted for Democrats.

  • You're kidding, right? LMAO

    White women are not a swing voting bloc. In the past 18 presidential elections, they have repeatedly voted for the Republican candidate, breaking only for Lyndon B. Johnson and for Bill Clinton’s second term. As political scientist Jane Junn wrote in 2016, “The elephant in the room is white and female, and she has been standing there since 1952.”

    Downvoting me for being correct gets tiresome. But this is precisely how racist this country is. Even if there has been some small shift towards Dems, ya'll would be way better off figuring out how to convert your sisters rather than worrying about a tiny number of Black Republicans.

    White Democrats just prefer to blame us, like you always do. ✌🏾

  • With no information, the blurb is almost designed to be infuriating. But remember that they didn't just drop a wall there. We're talking about grading and building roads for heavy equipment to get there, probably storage, and who knows what else. My money says that was the grift in the first place: scam Trump voters into paying to turn a worthless piece of land into something usable.

  • By "How 2016 turned out" you mean the Democrats ran a conservative, establishment Democrat when literally everyone was saying we want change? Then she was beaten by an "outsider" and the Democrats went all 'shocked Pikachu face' and blamed progressives for their choices?

    Dems think that we owe them our votes while they refuse to represent us. That is not democracy.

  • Tell that to Chelsea Manning.

    Sure, the US is mostly freer with information than a country that is unabashedly authoritarian. But ask Ron DeSantis what he was doing at Guantanamo, or the CIA what they did in Latin America. If you don't think the US hides plenty from its citizens, you haven't been paying attention.

    Our Tianimen Square was Kent State, or maybe the MOVE Bombing, or all of the documented police violence against protesters and marginalized people. Fat lot of good it does that we can talk about them when nothing changes.

    I think it makes more sense to hold our government to account than point out the flaws of people we don't like.

  • Thanks, yeah that is an interesting point. I suppose any sort of experimentation becomes a bit more ethically dicey when the scientist can't have informed consent from the subject.

  • The treatments were black-and-white painted stripes, black painted stripes, and no stripes (all-black body surface). Recorded fly-repelling behaviors were head throw, ear beat, leg stamp, skin twitch, and tail flick. Photo images of the right side of each cow were taken using a commercial digital camera after every observation and biting flies on the body and each leg were counted from the photo images. Here we show that the numbers of biting flies on Japanese Black cows painted with black-and-white stripes were significantly lower than those on non-painted cows and cows painted only with black stripes

    Black paint was not as effective as black and white paint.

    The study says that zebra markings repels flies.
