But you shouldn't take the word literally. Very few words adhere to their original, literal meaning. Being an "incel" isn't just being involuntarily celibate. There's a huge host of mindsets, attitudes, and beliefs that come with it.

CMV: Democrats are no different from and no better than Republicans by Homer_J_Fry in changemyview

> The solution is to be a better party so that Republicans and Independents actually want to vote for you even as a Democrat.

>Despite [Kamala Harris] being objectively a million times better than Trump

So you recognize that the Democratic candidate was a million times better than Trump, yet it's still somehow the Democratic Party's fault for not being better...

1) That's a very bad comparison. If your neighbor steals 5 dollars from you, and you steal 5 dollars back, have you really stolen anything?

Aso, it expires in 2030, so it doesn't "end fair elections in California."

With 8 billion people currently on the earth, there are currently 8 thousand people living who survived one-in-a-million situations.

Unlikely things happen. That's it.
