So, about 5 days back YouGov released poll results for a very comprehensive public opinion poll they did for the US, which you can see here:

The poll itself asks about a lot of different topics, but the section I wanna focus on here is the section between pages 96 to 112, which focuses on Antisemitism and Israel. Most polls with questions like these tended to only survey around 100~200 people, and had really depressing results, so I was really hoping going into this study that we'd see some more cheerful statistics. Maybe those small sample sizes caused some bias, I dunno. Maybe the numbers were off.
I kept being disappointed by how many people denied the holocaust in those studies. I didn't want to believe those numbers were real, quite frankly.
Well.
Of a poll of 1500 people, give or take, 7% say the holocaust is a myth, with another 16% saying they "don't know" whether it is or isn't, with people in the 18-29 age group having even more alarming numbers than that: 20% think the holocaust is a myth, and 30% that they don't know. Conversely, in the 65+ age group, not a single responder denies the holocaust.
If you take this poll as being representative, then out of 331.9 million people living in the US, that gives us about 23.2 million people (rounded down) in the US alone who think the holocaust did not happen.
For reference, there are only 16.2 million jews in the entire world, with 7.1~ million of them in Israel.
Turns out the numbers I saw previously were representative.
I have a question, what do you think about a job that offers insurance that only works at places that company owns? Because its relatively new, my work insurance used to be the generic insurance, now its "insurance name, company name" so if i go outside of the company, even if they would normally be covered by the insurance, they arent because theyre not a "this company doctor". Names redacted. I apologize for the over explaining.
Personally I am quite angry because this same company is also drastically underpaying (theyre well known and have a good reputation and I fell for it) me, but thats a different topic.
Look up a history of "company stores." Because that is literally what you are describing and it's one of history's most blatant labor rights abuses.
So now WE'RE angry too.

Well then. After over six years of loyalty and even sticking by them when they hired the malware company to push MTX, I'm finally jumping ship on the Unity Engine because of a very, VERY poorly thought out new payment scheme that borders on highway robbery and is so riddled with loopholes that I could swear it's almost unraveling as we speak and might be part of a potential insider trading scheme, if the fact that some of the top brass at Unity Software selling excessive amounts of stocks over the past two weeks is any indicator.
My new friend is MonoGame because I don't think Godot is even close to being viable to what I want, I hate Epic Games, and in both cases they want me to learn a whole ass new programming language. No thanks, I'll just stick to C# and fall back on GML if I'm really desperate.
I doubted myself so I did some research and no that was actually a shooting and I was almost completely right about how many shots I heard. thankfully they were only shot in the leg but it was a drive-by that happened right in front of my apartment
