A significant minority of Germans liked Hitler even after 1945. Plenty of people will just never stop supporting Trump.
OK, but how are people “on the fence” as in undecided about him. He’s not someone that people tend to feel ambivalent about
Too deep in, have to stick with it now. Too ashamed to openly admit they were both too dumb and ignorant to believe his lies, so they just continue doing it while pointing fingers at others. When you blame others for everything bad you did or are, all they can only reply with “no you!” which is a weak response. It’s hiding by pointing fingers at others. Shame others to hide your shame.
Sorry to be the one to break it to you, but the US is filled with shitty people.
Crushed by work ?
Too deep into the cult but to actually see him negatively, while seeing their whole life in shambles due to his administration.
Motherfucker, do we really need to bring back the corn?
Don’t be so corny
we posted corn about this you ass
41% stupid
4% brain damaged
The economist has long since lost any claims to integrity. Thry ask all the right questions, and make up all the wrong answers.
Someone should call up Weird Al to turn this into a remix of Remember the Name by Fort Minor, lol

It’s called rounding, and it’s quite common.
starik@lemmy.zip 3 weeks ago
40.5 + 56.5 + 3.5 = 100.5
Something’s not right.

Unless 40.5, 56.5 and 3.5 are themselves additions of rounded numbers. It’s generally how that works.

The bigliest and bestest President the world has ever seen obviously surpasses the wokist 100% barrier! First to ever do that!

Using strongly/somewhat for approve and disapprove:
39.5 + 0.5 + 55.5 + 0.5 + 3.5 = 99.5
That could work.

It can’t happen with honest rounding

What rounding algorithm was used? I have a hard time coming up with values or methods to be more than a single unit off.

A wrong one clearly haha

Approve and disapprove are generally a collection of different possible response generally (for example strongly approve, approve, slightly approve) which all can be rounded. When you round the result of an addition of rounded numbers, the result can be slightly off, without changing the significance of the result.
