Meanwhile, your counterargument is well supported by data and facts.

Ah yes, the classic gotcha: why doesn’t the world’s largest economy, spanning a continent, look exactly like a country of 9 million that fits inside West Virginia? Truly a mystery. Next up: why doesn’t the US have Monaco’s per capita yacht

Virtually every country in this region was drawn up by the British and French with little regard for ethnic or religious boundaries. What are you talking about?

I'm jealous, then. I've seen all kinds of deranged Rube Goldberg machines built using useEffect

Sorry, it just sounds like a seemingly reasonable and eloquent, yet highly emotional speculation. “There,” “here,” psychological obliteration—what is this but sciency reasoning, on par with boomers claiming, “Games make kids violent”? “Your
