What do you mean by color?

You got it. It has been my experience as well.

This doesn't disprove their meme. What it is saying is still true. Those scientist you mention held back progress and couldn't be "real scientists"

It doesn't seem they are using free speech in the same sense as the American first amendment (they may not be from the USA). But i would argue that if companies want to play politics, run countries, and be that integrated in people's lives then free speech as a concept should extend to companies.

I was gonna comment for anyone who didn't want to read the schpeel that it was just mosquito dunks (or BTI) and any plant parent knows about them.

You're right because the media has been captured by the right wing. And already to vote for Trump or believe in Elon means there's something peasant brain about you.

That isn't what I mean by cardboard. Persuasive, research, argumentative essays have been taught to be written the way tou described. They are meant to be that way. But even then, the essays I have read and graded still have this cardboard feel. I have read plenty of research essays where you can feel the emotion, you can surmise the position and most of all passion of the author. This passion and the delicate picking of words and phrases are not there. It is "averaged".

I can confirm that a lot of student's writing have become "averaged" and it seems to have gotten worse this semester. I am not talking about students who clearly used an AI tool, but just by proximity or osmosis writing feels "cardboardy". Devoid of passions or human mistakes.

Which? The recent or future? For the recent, it doesn't matter. It has happened. For the future, it needs to be overwhelming. The opposing candidate to Trump need to win by a yuge margin, something where it is hard for the right wing captured media can lie about. Where people can FEEL it off. Pictures like this validates people's perception of election results.

I unfortunately have to agree with you. With how the Harris election results went, i don't think people are ready for a woman president, let alone a brown one. The median American is too stupid, racist, and sexist.

Metallic or solid? Those are two different things, and depending on the answer, i will be going down a knowledge rabbit hole
