  • I’m trying to find any kind of statistics on the number of unicorporated towns, i cant find any, can you point me in a direction? Wiki article? Texas gov site? Federal gov site?

    I’m not doubting your 4k number. It got me curious as to how many unincorporated towns there are.

    Since texas is approx 30mil people and largest state land wise (unless alaska is bigger?)

    I dont think your 60k number holds up. I think your rough math was completely off, but you could be right. Having a hard time getting anywhere finding out those numbers.

    I’m not asking you to go look, I’m just asking for a place I can start looking.

    Edit: when i say statistics a simple counted number or approximation, or just a list of town names is all i need



  • So then the problem is exit polls, not voting gotcha.

    If there is something wrong with exit polls thats not the same thing as votes.

    That difference is essential to understand isnt it? Votes didn’t have to change for exit polls to be manipulated.

    And the entire hanging Chad bull shit from gore/bush should never have happened either. Paper solves nothing in this instance.

    Corruption of media and political groups sure, that’s a problem… Everywhere though.

    Exit polls are voluntary, and are internally prone to people lying.

    You jumping to “votes got changed” needs to be verified. And the voting systems themselves were not found to have been manipulated. That leaves polling stations/systems needing to be checked… Not just the reporting on those exit polls.

    Regardless, I’m not trying to change your opinion on whether you think votes were changed, the point your claim that MAGA got this right has no evidence, just opinion.

    They also got vaccines wrong, abortion wrong, masking wrong.

    I’m truly sorry you feel they got these things right.












  • Im only respond to your words: that only wealthy elites care about. Pedant warning. By responding you are agreeing to a very narrow discussion. Thank you for engaging this point of contention if you choose to do so.

    This is inaccurate. my proof is that I know people who are unhappy with the mob mentality around murder being okay. People who dont even make as much as i do, and while i consider myself poor, i recognize im above my areas minimum wage. Additonally I am not a wealthy elite and care about this to the degree that it could be a problem for us non elites if things go badly

    I personally midly concerned about what problems this might be showing us. Im not in a position to address or research them and dont claim that what i can see might happen is going to happen. Im opposed to people basing significant hardline stances on unproven and or untested assumptions and predictions. But I do see, without much difficulty or effort, how mobs and pitchforks are rarely proven to be acting on good faith rationality.

    So all im asking here is for you to contemplate why you were comfortable making such an easily arguable word choice and if you could be more precise in the future when you really are passionate about an argument you are making.
