american agricultural output has gone up by .48 of whatever units this table is using in the 43 years between 1973 and 2016. the table stops at 1948 so I'm going to take the increase between 1952 and 1973 and double it under the assumption that harvest size increases linearly in the absence of child sacrifice. using this methodology, the expected increase in agricultural output between 1930 and 1973 is .34 units. so yes, zygote sacrifice clearly increased the size of american harvests. perhaps even more conclusive is that american agricultural output has been declining since 2016

what's the percentage of people who have had their hearing restored who then demanded the implants be removed?

there's all sorts of benefits to being able to hear, and I'm hard pressed to see any disadvantages that can't be solved with ear plugs.

I remember having a fun conversation with ancient LF poster DeafByPills about this topic, 700,000 million years ago.

He had a bunch of advantages he brought up that deafness provided, such as the ability to easily speak to a friend across a crowded room.

He got very mad when I brought up that all his advantages were just advantages of being fluent in ASL, which hearing people can learn to do, whereas he could not learn to hear a truck coming up behind him.

I get that there are concerns and I'm not a member of the affected group but this seems more like a thing to muddy the waters than any kind of reason to stop and reflect on what israel is doing to gaze or what america did and is doing to its indigenous people

The idea is that being Deaf is a culture to itself, which probably cannot survive when all the deaf people can actually hear. So in that way, the implants are destroying that entire culture, just like kidnapping first nation kids and putting them in border schools basically, but without the actual cruelty.

It's an interesting dilemma to me, but it's definitely not comparable to Israel's genocide.

quote:

ROME (AP) — Pope Francis on Saturday forcibly removed the bishop of Tyler, Texas, a conservative prelate active on social media who has been a fierce critic of the pontiff and has come to symbolize the polarization within the U.S. Catholic hierarchy.

A one-line statement from the Vatican said Francis had “relieved” Bishop Joseph Strickland of the pastoral governance of Tyler and appointed the bishop of Austin as the temporary administrator.

Strickland, 65, has emerged as a leading critic of Francis, accusing him in a tweet earlier this year of “undermining the deposit of faith.” He has been particularly critical of Francis’ recent meeting on the future of the Catholic Church during which hot-button issues were discussed, including ways to better welcome LGBTQ+ Catholics.

lmao

the pope can delete a bishop for bad tweeting?

why doesn't a pope simply remove all of his enemies as soon as he takes power?

Nah, they can simply join one of the Catholic denominations that are not in full communion with Rome, particularly SSPX that has a very prominent far-right wing.
