People grossly underestimate how vulnerable their brains are. They think they are in control.
They think that simply watching the commercial will only increase the amount of information they have, and that it will therefore, given that they are fully rational and fully in control, only improve their ability to choose what is best for them.
Meanwhile millions of people are led to fascism and world war because of the targeted videos they see on Facebook, Twitter and YouTube.

Also wind patterns. At the midlatitudes westerlies dominate. So the east coast has a continental climate (cold winters, hot summers) while the west coast does not (the oceans make the summer and winter mild)
You’ll see that the west coast cities on the same latitudes of their European counterparts have a very similar climate (as opposed to east coast cities, which have a very different climate than their latitude-counterpart.

Amazing. Where did you read this?
- Comment on Latitudes 2 months ago:
A large part of it is also simply the fact that at the midlatitudes westerlies dominate, which means that western Europe receives mild air from the ocean, while the US east cost receives more extreme weather from the continent.
