I take it you’ve completely ignored the House of Representatives for the last two years? Those skills have not been on display there.

I fully agree with what you are saying, but are you sure you responded to the intended comment? I was asking for examples of calls to kill all men being lauded, celebrated and/or encouraged.

When I did a Google search of #killallwhitemen, I found plenty of articles about how controversial it was, not celebrations and encouragements.

And there is a giant leap between a thought exercise about how women feel unsafe around men, and encouraging calls to kill all men.

“Kill all men” - Lauded, celebrated, even encouraged.

Do you have an example of this? Because as someone whose suggested death would be celebrated, I’ve not seen those reactions myself.

What would accurate odds in the previous two presidential elections look like to you?

Here is a direct quote from 538:

538’s forecast is based on a combination of polls and campaign “fundamentals,” such as economic conditions, state partisanship and incumbency. It’s not meant to “call” a winner, but rather to give you a sense of how likely each candidate is to win. Check out our methodology to learn exactly how we calculate these probabilities.

In 2016 they gave Hillary Clinton a 71.4 % chance of winning, and in 2020 they gave Joe Biden 89 % chance of winning. They are dealing in odds, not calls.

And even if it isn’t getting through to you, how were they wrong in 2020?

If I told you that you had a five in six chance to roll the dice and not roll a one, and then you rolled the dice and got a one, was what I told you wrong?

They don’t call elections. They tell you the odds.
