That is, in the minds of many, people believe that conspiracy theorists are people like Alex Jones, people who are spouting all sorts of crazy ideas-some of which might have some grain of truth in them, but in general it feels like an exercise in talking to the tin foil hat crowd. Now, I donβt know much about Alex Jones; perhaps heβs better than I think he is, but what I want to talk..." current

It's often used to dismiss a situation, event, or topic as being uninteresting or having no real impact.

The theorem demonstrates that it's impossible to design a voting system that satisfies a set of seemingly reasonable criteria simultaneously. Here's a simplified explanation of Arrow's Impossibility Theorem: * '''Individual Prefer..." current

It's often used to maintain boundaries, prevent overreach, or discourage someone from interfering in areas where they lack competence or authority. However, "stay in your lane" can be weaponized when used inappropriately or in a manner that..." current
