  • Nah, the US-system is mathematically locked in a two-party system, it absolutely demolishes the chance for a third party but doesn't tolerate a single party either. Though it might take 8 - 12 years for the (former) republican vote to congeal around a new point of possible agreement.

  • People react differently, sure, some will call out to some higher power even if they don't believe, if these call-outs are part of their vocabulary. I certainly say "oh god" a lot, even though I'm a very vocal anti-theist and strong atheist. But they do not necessarily beg a higher power to safe them because they actually believe, but because in distress reaching for help is human instinct and our theism infused culture conditions us towards "god" in such situations.

    I'm not proud of it, but in distress I did call to god for help. But hey, I was 11 years old and just had my fingers crushed to paste, I was in shock and not thinking and at no point did I actually expect help.

    None of that is belief, as soon as peoole regain their senses, they discard it. Just like wounded soldiers on a battlefield don't actually expect their mothers to show up and safe them, yet still call out to them.

    Belief needs conviction and irrational panic behavior tells us nothing about conviction but a lot about ingrained childhood experience and familial as well as societal indoctrination.

  • Then it's not tea, it's an infusion or decoction.

    Tea is made from a specific plant, the tea shrub (Camellia sinensis).

    These infusions might be called tea, but they are tea in the same way as a hotdog is a heated companionable mammal.

    Except if you talk about Kukicha, then it's made from the stems of the tea shrub. The important part here is the tea shrub. Without tea in it, it just ain't tea.

            Yes, the world doesn't need billionaires
        And we can do it without guns
        No, we won't kill you and we won't lock you up
        On the contrary, you'll become millionaires!

  • Not everywhere, mostly that's a thing in the US (which is a pretty shitty society when it comes to how they treat their ex-cons and consequently to re-offending-rates) or with jobs where the past could have an impact (for example if you are to work in law enforcement)
