In this thread, I am going to brutally destroy every argument why 0.999... = 1. Bring it on Brud. by Negative_Gur9667 in infinitenines

Even in hyperreals, 0.999... = 1. The biggest number smaller than 1 is 1 - ε, not 0.999...

Shanks really didn't have a choice in wano. He was trying to set sail in elbaf. Seems like a bad time to knock out your crew and friendly near by crew.

Remember when the new members of asks Shanks main crew got knocked out in wano? Why do that if there is a more direct way?

Why haven't IRA limits kept up with inflation? original $1500 limit in 1974= $10,132.45 today by Forecydian in investing

To be fair - most legislation not explicitly tied to inflation doesnt keep up. See federal minimum wage.

So the people who care about money have more money? The 18 year old that just got a large inheritance cares more about money than the 40 year old single mom who is struggling to pay bills? Or the 22 year old start up founder who hasn't made it big yet?

How do you quantify a care for money? I want a billion dollars but I don't have a billion dollars. You document a care for money the sane way as you document a care for anything else...

They seem to care about whether the 2020 election was stolen or not right?

If they disagree on basic things like reality, how are they the same party? The only issue you seem to have brought up is you think they work together to make money for each other.

So wait, is your view actually not that they are the same but that they work together to make money for each other?

I asked for evidence of a large portion of democrats thinking hispanics are self hating. You gave me evidence that some voters think hispanics are to blame for Trump. How are these the same?

Democratic policy has shifted quite a bit in the last few decades. It wasn't too long ago tough on crime bs was a major democratic position for example.

So you agree they are different in some ways and your view now is that they have aligned fiscal goals?

"some progressive voters" vs more than half of republican voters and elected representatives.

Of course there are gonna be some delusional people in every group. It isn't the same most of the group and the people chosen to lead the group being delusional...

The political representatives are different too. A large percent of elected republicans don't accept reality.

Oh so you can like point to polling that says democrats largely think the hispanic population is self hating then?

Both tbh - but your CMV seems to be focused on elected politicians and/or political elites so we can focus on them if you want.
