Literally, afghans are persians. Their main language is a dialect of persian. Literal, actual, identical to the ones in Iran persians are the second biggest ethnic group, Pashtuns(the largest) are another persian ethnic group.

So what is the problem with the manosphere? That it spreads dangerous lies and radicalises young men into subjugating and even killing women? Or that the rhetoric makes women look bad?
Neither of those things. The manosphere Is Problematic because it convinces young men to get off the path of contributing to society in the way that society wants men to contribute to it, when it is easiest to get started on that path of filling the male role in society. Yes, feminism does the same thing for women and the double standard exists, but two wrongs don't make a right. Yes, there are legitimate issues the manosphere points to- just like feminism, which really did call out some bad stuff- but most of it is whining and secession from public contribution. Society needs young men to study for career skills, work hard, join the army, etc. Young male activities which seem pointless but which society is largely pro(such as team sports) largely do push towards these goals at least somewhat.

I mean why would illegals lie about citizenship on a survey? They’ll just not take it. Ain’t nothing suspicious in not having time for a survey.

merely delayed until a secure bio-lab can be constructed in a heliocentric orbit away from earth.
We can build a bio lab on a disused container ship parked in the middle of the Pacific Ocean right now if we want to, and for all practical purposes thats pretty similar.

Of course, it must be noted that black voter turnout has not declined after voter ID requirements became stricter.

Almost everyone in the US has jumped through the hoops to get a government photo ID, you can’t survive without it.

Those random spree killers are low functioning copycats of weirdos. Their MO is, and is likely to remain, opening fire at an elementary school or festival, not bringing down planes- see also the lack of bombings.

Current day depopulation doomers should take note, and think twice before they engage in their own atrocities to prevent the coming apocalypse.
Ehrlich’s continuing popularity was driven by the basic instinct that poor people are gross, and that gross things breed to much. ‘The science’ was never his biggest supporter; it was predictable liberal elite prejudices all the way down.

Is it really true that the SAVE act doesn’t count most state drivers licenses as acceptable ID’s?
In any case, Trump is more of a Marius than a Gracchus. Dirty tricks and proceduralism isn’t new here- he’s justifying it differently by ‘mandate from the people’.

This happened before- both major parties have done this, the other one just adapted.

Neither these scenarios, nor the use of firearms to stop hijackings, will happen. Airplane security is pointless.

Jane Austen was not a victorian writer, and he's Finnish anyways.
I don't know that she's a popular part of the American curriculum, either- Shakespeare makes a strong showing in the better programs, and everyone reads Huck Finn(The American novel). The shorter works(Where the Red Fern Grows, The Great Gatsby, To Kill a Mockingbird...) are pretty common. Younger grades have modern literature written almost specifically to be read in English class. In high school, I remember a bit of Steinbeck, more Dickens than I would have preferred, but perhaps a quarter of the curriculum being Shakespeare.

English is essentially anchored by Shakespeare and the King James bible, and for specifically American English also Twain. Not by Jane Austen, particularly- while she definitely 'counts' as a literary great, Pride and Prejudice in not an anchorwork for English as a literary tongue the way that Shakespeare's first folio is, nor the the King James bible.

The only Islamic group to defeat the US was the Taliban; they may simply be taking inspiration from Mullah Omar in picking a reclusive leader with severe war injuries.

Or we're simply more sensitive to even trivial risks. We could make planes open carry friendly, and it would be fine.
Middle eastern governments in 2011 were likely much worse at bullying social media companies than first world governments in 2020.
