is this necessarily desirable? if you add in suburbs & exurban-like areas to the city voter base, those voters would gain more power over policies such as the city's land use & housing, which I'd think would probably help NIMBYs & harm urbanism

it's especially telling that religion is often reoriented around the things that an in-group already wants. in the 1800s, some white Southerners used warped interpretations of Christianity to defend the practice of enslaving black people

the right-wing secularism found in parts of Europe (as well as historical examples) makes me somewhat skeptical that that's actually a political solution
the right can just utilize ethnonationalism/racial grievances, cultural factors, gender, & low openness (disgust factor) to help other enemies

a lot of applications available off of the official app-store are both not malicious and quite useful, and there's still a security warning & a setting that you need to change prior to downloading anything

some aspects of attractiveness can be influenced by the individual & their environment, but the biggest component is definitely luck of the draw, and it certainly influences how people are treated
people seem uncomfortable considering birth luck (& "privilege") in general

the rate of domestic consumption growth slowing down through the first 2 quarters does have annual GDP growth on a slower pace than that
