Let's assume he's not lying, insane, or insulting our intelligence. Are 6 month old infants really experts on health policy?

I guess I'm not obsessively aware enough of this to unpack exactly how ironic this post is meant to be.

Even if we assume that rural poverty is some kind of indictment of the person or his family (way to go, Marxist, look down on the proletariat why don't ya) this guy managed, on the back of his own ingenuity and audacity, to produce a complicated piece of machinery out of what might as well be nothing, using knowledge he gleaned from books written in a language he did not understand. He _transcended_ his own poverty and low station, and has demonstrated his own tremendous value.
What lesson is there to be learned from your disdain? That you have contempt for excellence? That achieving something beyond expectation and beyond your peers is unworthy? Are "conservatives" really right when they say that leftists really crave uniformity and hate the entrepreneurial spirit and individuality?
Or perhaps there's a simpler answer, which is that Mudede is an asshole, and that he doesn't deserve to be paid money for this writing this bullshit. I think I'll go with that.

"I can imagine nothing worse than being bitten by a raccoon."
Pitbulls, tigers, piranha, alligators, sharks, komodo dragons...
And if "nothing worse" includes all bad experience and not merely animal bites, let's talk about cancer, disembowellment, flesh-eating bacteria, leprousy, immolation...
Really, Mudede, for someone who expends so much effort on fanciful wankery you have an awfully limited imagination.

How many more robberies would occur if the pool of potential perpetrators could confidently assume that their victims would be unarmed and harmless? How many fewer if counter-violence was considered probable?

I see her on Delta all the time. I will say, apart from her unsettling appearance, that safety presentation is the best-produced airline video I've ever seen.
