Secondary Results: again with all the above assumptions in place, the (with labor) cost of making a burrito is an estimated $12.64 whereas the (with labor and delivery) cost of having the burrito delivered is an estimated $19.49.
The secondary hypothesis is also rejected.

Who's the comedian who headlined the MSG rally? This guy.
![From Wikipedia:
Austin comedy performance and Asian stereotypes
During a stand-up set in May 2021, Hinchcliffe was videotaped insulting Peng Dang, an Asian American comedian who had introduced Hinchcliffe after performing the previous set at Vulcan Gas Company in Austin. Hinchcliffe said Dang was a "filthy little fucking chink", followed with a series of Asian stereotypes in a mock Chinese accent, and lashed out at audience members who laughed at Dang's jokes, branding them as "race traitors". The video was later shown on Twitter, went viral and received criticism.[25] As a result, Hinchcliffe was dropped by his agency WME and removed from shows scheduled with Joe Rogan in Austin, and the Austin nightclub Antone's announced that it would no longer be involved with Hinchcliffe or his Kill Tony live show.[25][26][27] Vulture reported that during his set, Hinchcliffe stated that Chinese people came to Austin because of the bats and criticized offended audience members for "believing he was serious".[31] Dang stated he did not receive any apology from Hinchcliffe following the incident.[31] In an interview with Variety, Hinchcliffe stated that the line was a joke and he did nothing wrong, adding that he believed comedians should never apologize for a joke and simply continue with their work, which was the approach he took after the incident. Variety also reported that in an October 2023 episode of the podcast Triggernometry, Hinchcliffe claimed that Dang was a "Chinese spy" and the incident was an "an orchestrated attack by the Chinese media". In response to these claims, Dang questioned the logic behind a country sending a spy to pose as a stand-up comedian and shared that he continued to receive racist and hateful messages from Hinchcliffe's fans since the incident.[32]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ukbi2hmg6qvonczjib4qv5ui/bafkreicqsj7tdv77fqzxjzo5m3kddhpnydjw2liff27rofwgwsjkki2ezu@jpeg)

Consider further the 5 components: i) nationalism (existence of ingroup), ii) assertion of national decline, iii) linking of national decline to existence of the outgroup, iv) national decline is the fault of outgroups asserting dominance, and v) political citizenship of outgroups weakens the whole.

Kearney depicted the Chinese as an existential threat to the white working class, and he warned that if “the Chinese question” were not addressed by public policy, he would lead a wave of violence against Chinese immigrants to drive them out by force.

Similar to how Trump-Vance invoked the threat of immigrant violence against white Americans, Chinese were also stereotyped as violent and sexual predators — the so-called “Yellow Peril” — who posed threats to white lives and white women’s chastity.

Anti-Chinese hysteria was fueled by dehumanizing stereotypes of Chinese as feral, wild, and barbaric — especially through the common stereotype of Chinese eating dogs, cats, and rats.
This ad famously depicts the rat-eating stereotype while invoking Kearney’s slogan that “the Chinese must go!”

I ask this seriously - why do some people get so freaking upset about not wearing shoes in another person’s house?
These people do, at some point I assume, go shoeless at their own house. They are aware that shoes are not permanent fixtures right?

Can’t help but notice that some of the folks who romanticize life on the farm might be romanticizing a time thinking it looked easy because people who looked like them would not be actually doing the hard labor of farming.

Saw this on the bird app. I know OP is trying to be deep but there’s a really obvious reason for this: both “African American” and “Asian American” are explicit political terms that were actively constructed to refer to specific non-white groups.

This is an obviously terrible idea for a number of reasons, not the least of which there are absolutely people doing work for the government for whom there is no redundancy. This is a sure fire way to break everything.

I especially don’t understand how this could limit the administration from even flagging potential posts for further review. Flagging for review. The social media platforms still retain final power over the content on their platforms.
