Magnetrons are a lot less efficient than magnetic induction (which most modern electric kettles use). Magnetic induction is about 90% efficient at converting electricity to heat in the vessel, whereas the most efficient microwaves are about 60% efficient at converting electricity to microwaves.
Lol at the picture of that baby speed hump on a 40' wide road.
That'll do it.
Violence (or the threat of it) is the only means of influence that the people have ever had. As you've correctly identified, when other avenues of enacting their will are stymied, violence results, but that threat of violence must be what sits behind every vote, or the vote would have no power.
To put it succinctly, "Political power grows out of the barrel of a gun."
My ideological opponents are already silencing speech. I gain nothing by ceding that tool solely to them.
As long as fascists exist they must be silenced. When they seize power, they will not do you the courtesy of allowing you to speak just because you let them. It's naive to think otherwise.
Not asking you to dox yourself, but that number outside of context means very little.
If I'm remembering a book I read (either Human Transit by Walker or Street Fight by Sadik-Khan, I forget), with protected bike lanes the gender disparity between cyclists also starts to disappear.
The investment costs for protecting a bike lane are almost nothing for any competent city, though. There's a reason it's possible for guerrilla urbanists to do it overnight with no money.
Censorship of speech is a powerful tool. Why, if you have the true conviction of your beliefs, would you fight with one hand behind your back?
Moreover, I've seen no evidence in my lifetime that letting my ideological opponents speak leads to positive results.

Seems kind of instructive to me that just putting a Mario coat of paint on a stripped-down Forza Horizon makes the reviewers go wild.
The US has slave labor and all they do is pick cotton and staff call centers. If I'm living in a state with slave labor either way I'd probably take the one with the trains.
Yeah. Microwaves are more efficient than most non-induction stoves.
