The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", sykesix asked the members: "What do you do if you arrive early at movie besides go to the snack bar?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

bighairymike: Would you be in charge of enumerating the facts? Asking for a friend.

Facts are facts.

For example, it is a fact that Nobel Prize-winning author Toni Morrison's books have been banned in multiple cities, libraries, and states.

And it's a fact that women are finding it increasingly difficult to receive adequate medical care for miscarriages in some states because of their anti-abortion legislation.

And it's a fact that republication legislatures in some states are writing laws to remove rights from LGBTQ+ individuals.

Now, if I were to write that racists and morons love Donald Trump for his support of white supremacy, his misogyny, his pro-Russia stance, his cruelness, his disregard for the Constitution and democracy, and easily fall prey to his grifting, well, that may be a popular and accurate opinion but it's not a fact.
