I've taken 3 semester's worth of Python, most of it focusing on the VPython/visual python library for Physics

You can get some pretty cool simulations of electromagnetic fields and mass+spring systems going that way

There's not really a reason to complicate things. She, he, and singular they are the only pronouns that are necessary.

Thats not arguing against anything I said, literally at all.

Here, lets try to get back on topic before you start moving the goalposts like you usually do.

We are talking about the popularity behind it

https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2021/03/07/usa-today-ipsos-poll-just-18-support-defund-police-movement/4599232001/

Only 18% of respondents supported the movement known as "defund the police," and 58% said they opposed it. Though white Americans (67%) and Republicans (84%) were much more likely to oppose the movement, only 28% of Black Americans and 34% of Democrats were in favor of it.


poll from last year
You're more interested in arguing what's popular over what actually works.

https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/investigations/2019/02/13/marshall-project-more-cops-dont-mean-less-crime-experts-say/2818056002/

Data shows that the raw numbers of police have declined over the past five years, and the rate of police officers per 1,000 residents has been dropping for two decades. At the same time, the violent crime rate has also dropped.

Regardless of how people vote in polls, the data doesn't lie. The amount of police presence doesn't dictate the crime rate.

Ohh, the topic where you couldnt get over the fact that most black people want a local police presence, and most (dem) cities who were planning on implementing a defund the police policy, ended up 180ing. Iirc, that topic was entirely demoted to semantics over whether or not these cities actually implemented anything (which I later proved that some indeed did, and were backtracking it)

Defunding the police isnt even popular on the left, so sorry. Next?
I can't believe you actually want to do this again lol

https://madison.com/ct/news/local/govt-and-politics/activists-want-to-defund-how-do-other-countries- curb-police-excesses/article_363c1712-f8e7-52ce-85cf-394e786e35a1.html

America spends far less on social programs than most of the 37 advanced countries that make up the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development. But it spends more per capita on policing than any other country except Luxembourg, and at 5.3% the U.S. ranks first in spending as a percent of total government expenditures.

And American police officers are significantly less trained than their counterparts in other nations, and way more likely to use force, all too often with deadly results.

So yes, it's already a closed case proven by other countries that we can reduce police spending if we also reroute the funds to improved social programs.

Also posting screenshots of the tags is only ensuring that everyone else is gonna call you out in every future topic

You were the first to be inflammatory, and I already clarified I'm a home owner in this topic.

MAGAs really are a special level of stupid.
That dude actually thinks he's fooling people. He'll drop a few comments disparaging Republicans for plausible deniability, then when it gets down to brass tacks, the things he argues for align pretty closely with conservative values.

I'd say this is more so an argument that the quality of government housing should be improved, not that the idea itself is la la land shit. The idea is good in theory, especially if you define a state as an entity that is beholden to benefitting and providing for the people

This. The idea of only going to college to get a job is so depressing, though I can see how the cost can be prohibitive to the point of needing a higher paying job after to pay it back

You seem to be a lost cause, but hopefully anyone lurking that reads this isn't.

It's not some novel concoction of unknown substances that they threw together to see what would happen.

K, jumped the gun a bit there but my point still stands. I actually have principles and "it's only wrong when my ideological opponents do it" doesn't jive well with me. I see no benefit to ignoring this very real problem, it should be called out wherever it exists rather than only when convenient
"I was wrong, but will double down to show how I'm actually right" lmao shut the fuck up

Whenever "the left" tries to cancel someone/something, it's typically because the subject in question attempts to normalize or push problematic viewpoints, usually someone being hateful in some way, and it usually doesn't result in anything meaningful happening anyway

Right wing cancellation has included incredibly wide sweeping campaigns like McCarthyism and Satanic Panic, which end up having real consequences to normal people, not just celebrities and businesses. Left wing cancel culture doesn't go after average Joe, so it's not in the least bit comparable
