Considering the demographics of non-voters in the US, mandatory voting would probably benefit Democrats immensely. For that reason, it's never going to happen here.

Even if you're banking on the audience not noticing the y axis being is on a messed up scale, this seems like a horrible recruitment tool. It's admitting that less than 1% of people involved earn an above average income and the vast majority make peanuts (and I'm sure this is after they've hosed with the numbers enough to hide the fact that most people lose money from these schemes).

Tiggum posted:How is it backpedalling? It's not a pie chart and they never said it was a pie chart. I've seen attempts at pie charts that are worse than that. In this very thread, in fact. I could totally believe this was the work of some idiot intern who doesn't really understand pie charts.

I remember reading a book about modern Chinese government where the author said that the PRC tends to be very reasonable in trade negotiations and open to compromise on most geopolitical issues as long as they don't attract much popular attention back home, but once the news gets out, they go into full blustering national pride mode and it's impossible to get anything done until the media frenzy dies down.

I thought it was pretty obvious that chart was talking exclusively about colored candy, not the things that common candy flavors are based on. This isn't some sperg who's never eaten a fruit before, it's a ranking of candy flavors.

Outrail posted:Doesn't porn make up like 30% of the internet or something? I thought it'd be bigger (haha, that'd what she said etc etc) It's possible that while porn may be one of the most popular types of traffic, porn traffic is more distributed and less top-heavy than these other categories, so you see relatively few top sites but lots and lots of smaller ones that wouldn't show up on a top 100 list.

ranbo das posted:Never woulda guessed WWE had a super left-leaning following. Also lol at the WNBA When this chart's come up before, the explanation I've seen for the WWE is that its fanbase is primarily young and poor and also in recent years more and more Hispanic, though I'm not sure if that was the case when the data was collected in 2008-2009. My own anecdotal evidence is that every wrestling fan I know is a twenty/thirty-something nerd.

Somfin posted:It was to avoid too much poo poo breaking. There's a startling amount of code out there that specifically does not work on any OS that identifies itself as "Windows 9[*]". That's the common explanation I see, but I think it's more likely that focus groups just liked "Windows 10" better than "Windows 9."

BrigadierSensible posted:So is the strategy having multiple Republican candidates to split the vote, and then in the run-off election hope people will vote for "anyone but a democrat"? The GOP almost certainly would have preferred for all but one of the Republican candidates to drop out so it's not really their first choice of strategy but it's what they have to work with.

Carados posted:It's a weird election format but unless there is a huge majority (50% above the second place) it runs off the top two candidates, so having multiple republicans doesn't really change anything. It's not 50% above second place, it's just straight 50% + 1. Also technically there are a few other Democrats and even more Republicans in the race but the remaining Democrats are looking to combine for no more than ~1500 votes.

Carados posted:Misunderstood, my fault. Having so many candidates wasn't a conscious decision on the GOP's part. It just worked out that none of the GOP candidates ever commanded a huge lead over the others and while Handel was the frontrunner, 2-3 had a shot all the way up to election day and the party can't force them to drop out and they'd all rather cling to their small chance of victory, so they stuck it through.

Chitin posted:I've always loved the double think involved in "regressive left." There are definitely some groups on the left I'd classify as "regressive" who use aspects of leftist or progressive ideology to justify racism/sexism/homophobia/etc. Like TERFs or Hoteps or leftists who are against immigration from a "the capitalist class uses immigration to drive down the price of labor" perspective. But those groups are never who conservatives are talking about when they say "regressive left" so

trapped mouse posted:Nope, 5 years ago they voted to become a state. Congress just decided not to do anything about it. It's kinda complicated. That vote isn't the best representation since there still wasn't a straight majority for statehood, just a plurality, when you factor in all the blank votes for that question left by most of the pro-status quo people. The 2017 referendum was also questionable because pro-status quo people boycotted it and as a result, turnout was abysmal. Of course, the Republicans' main reason for not letting them become a state is because they'd be a Democratic stronghold but hey

Jurgan posted:Iraq and Iran- friends? They were definitely enemies under Saddam, but I thought they were still enemies because Iran sends forces into Iraq to destabilize them. They're friends because they're both majority-Shia, they have an interest in curtailing the power of Saudi Arabia and Wahhabism, and they do a lot of trade.

In a similar vein, this is what a literacy test black people had to pass to vote in the Jim Crow era South looked like. This particular one was 30 questions in total, this is just the first page. The questions were deliberately vague so the examiner could fail anyone they wanted (all black people).
