That's kind of like telling a poor person they could always go back to school and study to become a doctor, i.e., technically possible but extremely difficult. My understanding is that it is next to impossible to immigrate to Japan unless you have a Japanese parent or are rich and/or a celeb, but would love to be proven wrong! I would love to live there!

Is there a term for humor that is ruined by terrible grammar and diction?
Oh it’s a term linked to that industry…
...It's tangentially related to the porn industry, but primarily, it is also the actual medical terminology many are probably more familiar with, so still wouldn't be a great idea even in that context. (You get a pass if English is not your first language, otherwise, it should be fairly common knowledge.)
Crazy, how in the heck did he spin that to make himself look good?
Obligatory:
True. Was playing Arkham Knight the other day and thought this nine year old game looked better than at least half of current gen games.
There’s just absolutely no way that the money free world they describe is good for everyone.
Can you elaborate, please? In a hypothetical future where money doesn't exist and technology has granted everyone the means and freedom to pursue their own interests (as long as those interests aren't harmful to others, of course), I'm having difficulty understanding why that wouldn't be amazing. Maybe not perfect, but vastly improved over what we're stuck with now.
But since it is worded so poorly, you can just as easily assume the other interpretation is correct as well, e.g., it's 'the most important thing' because not voting will 'send a message' that Republicans refuse to participate in a 'broken election system'. He also said 'will not be voting' instead of potentially making the message clearer with different wording like 'will not be able to vote', so that makes not voting sound like an intentional choice Republicans should make.
I admit my reading comprehension could be off, but that is about the dumbest, most confusing way to word a statement that is so potentially contentious. My interpretation was that he said if the 'election fraud' is not 'resolved', Republicans won't bother voting because they will assume it is rigged. The 'election fraud' has not been 'resolved' (because there never was any), hence, Republicans should stay home.

Thanks for the thoughtful response! I will keep this in mind (I do have a bachelor's and am a former SE, currently sysadmin).
