Idgaf. And I do actually take pride in saying what I feel in a time where doing so is so repressed.
I truly feel that it is stupid to use ‘are’ for nouns that are a collective.
So go ahead and insult America, makes you no different than the rest of the world we’re protecting.

Ah. Well that’s just stupid. Like when I’m talking about family, which is composed of individual members I love, I don’t say “my family are having dinner tonight”. Why do you think team is treated in such a peculiar and incorrect way?

My statistics professor went on a tangent one day about how the ‘a’ sound in “data” (as in dapper) signifies singular information and “data” as in the character from Star Trek signifies the distribution of information.

You’re saying there’s no such word as “teams” in Britain’s lexicon of words? Or even vernacular usage?

Reply to comment by [deleted] in [OC] The most quoted verses in each book of the Bible by spicer2
This video logically defeats itself and forego’s the entire narrative of the Bible that they’re mocking for the sake of repeating the phrase “finely tuned”.
“The universe and most of the planet can’t support life.” then proceeds to show a plant growing out of a crack in the sidewalk…
Also, the vid is called Atheism Comedy, but it had zero humor in it lmao—mockery is just insulting if it’s not funny, not matter how “intellectual” you think the veneer of said mocking is.
