It's not always as stupid as you make it sound. Sometimes there are many subtly different ways to achieve a basic result and using a common component rather than rolling your own can be the difference between familiar and surprising behaviour. Although obvs if it's 3 lines just c+p that, but it's unlikely to really be that

I think you may have missed my point. I meant that non-voters are not a homogenous mass, and have different desires and prejudices and reasons not to vote. And not to put too fine a point on it, a fair few of them are cunts.

Sometimes you just gotta counterattack the hive mind

I hadn't thought about Canada at all, nor about how indigenous people in North America / Australia wouldn't necessarily have been included in historical literacy rates -- instead I'd glibly taken the literacy rates of the largest countries that ostensibly 'spoke English' at face value, and you make a compelling point. All very interesting, thanks

Jeez, what country are you talking about with that level of literacy up until 1950? India?

What's planning got to do with it? Kids can be irritating, you have to deal with them more if you're the parent. Or is this one of those kneejerk 'having kids=bad' takes?

It'll be her. She's very dark skinned, extremely striking, and definitely had a role in at least one Bond film

Well I mean if it can be reduced then it should be removed, lol, that one doesn't belong in the list.

Simply define it as i = e^(iπ/2) 🤣
