I shall use this knowledge and endeavour to share it where possible.
We have governors declaring they will seize medical equipment from its owners. We have mayors of major cities advocating for us to conscript medical personnel via the Selective Service. We have the President invoking the Defense Production Act and telling private companies to manufacture goods. We have governors and mayors and county-level medical officials across the nation outlawing religious services and declaring that it is illegal for people to leave their homes except under a list of officially approved circumstances.
that sounds better. I thought a point was 1D, a line was 2D thinking of a plot with X and Y axis, and a surface was 3D - but a totally flat surface would be 2D, and a totally straight line i guess is 1D. a point must be 0D.
As with so many things these days, the internet gives people the ability to speak to millions of other people. The idiots and extremists seem to garner more attention, and therefore, generate ad revenue; so they have an even louder voice. I don't think there are actually more idiots and extremists, but merely that the few that exist can get together and try to indoctrinate others into whatever bent world-view they have.
