I feel like Jordan Peterson would go the other way where you could just say "communism" with no context and he'd go into an entertaining "there would be executions in central park" meltdown

More like 1 in 20 households having a moonshine guy which is probably more like 1 in 100 directly interacting with the moonshine guy.

Sam Harris-ing

Essentially a form of begging the question; If we assume this scenario where I'd be correct, then I'd be correct.

I mean you are right to eschew discord but this isn't really particular to discord. Scraping messages for something like this can be done on any public chat room regardless of which boxes you may have that it ticks; it it's floss, decentralized, nationalized, communist, on the blockchain, indie, community run, simple protocols, whatever, in the end if anyone can read it then someone can scrape it. Discord was targeted because it was popular that is all.

Unless you eschew discord because it's popular and not because it sucks in which case score one for the hipsters I guess.

Nice list of things that no-one who can vote in a US presidential election cares about.

This article reframes people being able to afford to stay in their homes as some kind of crisis.

Not present at any point in this article; any evidence that any American is stuck in a home they would rather leave. They couldn't even be bothered to quote a single homeowner who wanted to move let alone anything indicating that this is a common sentiment.

The only evidence cited are previous rates of housing mobility which are then taken simply as a natural norm with any deviation an unwanted aberration.

The idea that people might generally want to live in the homes they bought long term is not considered. The idea that those who move or downsize are often doing so reluctantly under pressure from their mortgage is not considered.
