Wait, what? There are elections for public officials that are part of an internal party election not open to the public in general?
Yup. Some states have what are called closed primary elections, where only registered members of the party can vote for who the party's nominee will be. Other parties have open primaries, where you don't have to be a registered member of the party, or of any party.

"Mohammedans"?
1.6 billion was around-ish the turn of the 20th century, when Mohammed(i)an was still a commonly used term for Muslims. :shrug:

Spotted this in the Gay Marriage thread in D&D:



What it looks like: Every state except California allows evil people to murder trans people and get away with it!

What it actually means: In California, this defense will not work because the law says so and the judge will strike it from the record. Elsewhere in the US, this defense will not work because the prosecution isn't going to let psychopaths on the jury.
Except trans panic (and gay panic) defenses actually do work a non-zero amount of the time.

I'd answer 50% and explain that the answer couldn't possibly be A or D because its impossible to be both. Picking randomly between the two valid answers yields 50% probability of being correct.

Not that it matters, this is a "one hand clapping" question where there isn't a right answer and they just want to see how you thought through it.
I can clap with one hand easily. :colbert:

Rodina's a far-right Russian political party. I assume Alanya is similar.

I'm pretty sure HRT for transwomen does shrink the penis. This is something most of them don't have a problem with.
It shrinks the balls a lot of the time, but dick shrinkage is very much YMMV and can range from moderate shrinkage to none at all.

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
I'm not even sure I'd call TERFs as a whole eftists at all given how many of them are also virulently racist, anti-choice, etc.

Anti-choice? Are you still taking about TERFs? Because there's no way someone qualifying for 'Radical Feminist' would be anything but pro-choice.
They are radical feminists in much the same way that North Korea is democratic or a people's republic.

Like loving every other source of information in this day and age, critics accuse the IEA who projected the data in that graph of being mostly controlled by the industries they're supposed to supervise.

In particular they constantly underestimate renewables production capacity, instead suggesting sequestration and nuclear as the only viable solutions to climate change.

Probably that graph was created by an aggrieved greenie who views them exactly that way.
Doubt it, the greenies tend to be terrified of nuclear power

Nah there's still a lot of spooky stuff flying around the southwest/midwest but it's mainly drones or prototypes for stuff like the B-21 or the alleged Project IX stealth transport/tanker.
See, that to me just looks like an attempted revival of the the A-12

Ah yes, fascism, well known for being closer to freedom than to slavery, and only slightly less free than anarchism.

Every anarcho-communist looking at that graph: :confused:
