I mean, it's also hard in general to get pregnant. assuming the average man and the average woman have sex during the best time in her cycle, there's still only a 26% chance during unprotected sex to have a pregnancy
And then you could end up with an ectopic pregnancy or some other miscarriage

It's just that if abortion is off the table for some reason, then you shouldn't be taking that chance

Obviously Reddit thinks it is and those of us who spend the effort to think about it have come to the same conclusion. The act of asking people to not vote is a form of vote manipulation by virtue of it involving someone manipulating you to limit your votes.
This is not a hard concept to grasp and I think it serves as a great litmus test in gauging critical thinking skills in people.

Exactly that too. We did some active shooter training Friday. Me and partner walk into a room with a call with two dudes arguing. One calm one yelling. Yelling angry dude is approaching and I'm like okay dude chill out. My partner loses focus on calm one and he looks at the angry guy and tells him to relax. The two seconds he turned to tell the guy to relax. The calm guy pulled out a gun from his waistband and shot him with a sim round. Within another second I had already pulled out my gun with a level 3 retention holster at that and had already shot him back

That whole process took maybe 3 seconds

That's why these guys end up getting shot. I would rather save my life then get shot honestly

This is the real problem with police training. You're trained to think everyone has it out to kill you.
And it's true there is danger everywhere. That's a problem because you now treat innocents like potential killers. I'm sure you also had to watch that video of the routine traffic stop where the guy just executes the cop with a rifle.
That's the problem and it infects every way you view the world. You're conditioned to just accept that you'll get gunned down in a standard argument and you wonder why people get nervous and hate cops?

Fair enough. A major piece of legislation is coming up for a vote and you are unsure how to vote. Your party is strongly opposed to the legislation and party leaders are trying hard to persuade all party members to vote against the bill. At the same time, your office is receiving a large volume of phone calls and emails that are overwhelmingly in favor of the bill.

My problem with Jordan Peterson reminds me of some posters on CE. There will be times actual legitimate arguments are made, I may not agree with them but I can see that there is a logic and understanding to them. But then there are times when he clearly does something for attention, making trollish comments similar to people on CE switching to shitposting.
It makes it hard to really take him seriously.

I get why he's appealing to people though. It's why people fall for Ayn Rand, he offers a way to bring order and understanding to the world and that makes you feel good.

How much do top Democrats know that hasn't been publicly disclosed?
Hillary Clinton doesn't spout bullshit on serious stuff like this, so her calling Trump a Russian puppet in the debate implies she's 100% confident. My sense of how top Democrats have been holding back is that they know there is metaphorically "fatal" evidence of Trump's guilt, and that they've been strategically holding back to time things to maximize the impact on the November 2018 election.
They're too calm and too quiet for people who are uncertain about the underlying facts and the future of Trump as President.

Conversely, the Republicans have been wildly bizarre and insane by their own standards. Yes, the party is internally in disarray, but the disorder, divisions and lack of discipline are extremely abnormal, as are the wave of officials declining to run for re-election.

What don't we know?

I love how dems act like they're for poor people but then act like an extra thousand bucks is crumbs

The idea is less that it's a bad thing and more that it wasn't enough.
Democrats generally support cutting taxes on poor and middle class Americans. The issue is when we give large tax breaks to the upper class who simply keep their money to themselves. It's been proven time and time again that trickle down doesn't work and that people who will spend the money directly on goods and services (such as the average American enjoying an extra ~2 grand a year) will improve the economy better than some wealthy elite who puts it into his mutual fund.

So when Democrats criticize the tax breaks it's not that they hate poor people but that an extra grand means nothing if you have to spend a couple grand extra on healthcare cause there's no mandate. Or add in any other reform the tax bill changed or ways they're trying to balance the budget.
