It's kind of like having a "concept of a plan" for healthcare. 🤣

The people who didn't think this would happen are in the minority (barely) and had the hubris to think this was impossible with our checks and balances. Other countries are showing the beginnings of this same error. Be careful! It can happen anywhere & those who want it play the long game.

You watch way too many movies and TV shows.

I don't get "petulant" until I receive angry replies from ignorant posters. Most of us didn't vote for this but somehow you don't know that. Many of us are risking our lives to stop things. But you go ahead and whine.

I never ask for ideas until posters throw accusations about how little they think im doing. When you tell someone to do more and you haven't a clue what is happening and what they're already involved with, then you should be ready to give ideas. You show you know nothing about what we're doing here.

Throwing accusations isn't the same as expressing an opinion. I hope people support you when times are tough like you have the individuals of the US.

Give me specifics. Tell me what I am doing, what i am risking, and what I should do going forward. Not sure why you're angry tho. After all, you're protecting your country, right? You are doing what's needed to save your way of life. If not, why not?

Honey, saying "you figure it out" is just another way to say you haven't a clue. Your country may have made a decision but it was done by powers that be, not you. Then people in organizational roles decided how the public should act, not you. You speak loudly and take credit for what others did.

So interesting that you think you know what I do or what my stakes are. You must be omniscient. Careful cuz smugness like yours is the first step to ruin.

Please let me know what I should do specifically.

Not sure where you're from cuz you conveniently hide it (bot?) but if you're real (and I really don't care much), be careful how smug you get. Cuz most first world countries are on their way to becoming like the US.

You haven't been paying attention. EVERYDAY there are many of us protesting. Boycotts are happening but not making the news. Unfortunately our media is big corps bought and paid for by trump. So you really have to search to see what's being done when you're not in it.

Unfortunately, being sure you wouldn't is the first step to doing it. Don't make that mistake. Trump won by a plurality, not a majority. I hope it never happens to another country. Learn rather than feeling smug.

I meant my last reply was 2/3. The other problem is there was no mention of what part of the pop was evaluated. In the US, all children are included in evals whether disabled or not. That is often not done in other places. Adult pops may be the same. Also Canada & UK didn't do much better.

I went to the source your source used (you used a regional private college who didn't do the research). It doesn't delineate citizen adults so prob included non-cits who often come from countries with lower education. If the eval to measure literacy was in English, that's also a factor. (1/3)

Thank you for the souce. As someone who deals extensively in studies, I can point out just a couple of things since I glanced at the article; more might come to mind if I delve more deeply.(1/3)

BTW, you seem to think "average" means median. If you paint a population according to the median, especially a HUGE population, you are creating a meaningless comparison.

Saying the "average" any population is any trait is a simplistic, divisive, and generally uneducated statement. More than half the country did not vote for this guy. Most who did are very uneducated, probably due to the crazy cost of higher education in this country. Don't kick, support.
