Also this nonsense is stupid waste of civilization time
I hold a liberal pluralist view: truly homogeneous societies are nearly impossible, especially in large countries. The U.S. will always have communities like the Amish and Mennonites, and Arab countries will always have both liberal and religious areas.

Extremely funny that Ansari, until then a solid progressive, leaned hard into support for Israel to get a billion dollars in DMFI/AIPAC spending and VERY narrowly (39 votes!) beat Raquel Teran, only to immediately pivot back into being normal afterwards
