Only in areas with tigers, and then it would only express itself enough if there were enough evolutionary pressure exclusively on that survival tactic.

As long as other causes of death happen to deer in tiger territories and as long as speed remains a good survival strategy, minor mutations that would only provide an advantage in extreme specific scenarios like a tiger stalking them wouldn't have a chance to be spread.

There's also a whole host of additional brain power that needs to be dedicated to more complex colour blending and processing, and that may add enough delay to offset any potential gain in recognizing a threat.

Social governance in the US is mostly window dressing. The class oppression is the same, dems just don't pretend poor whites are a higher class than other minorities. To the dem or republican leadership your gender, sex, nor race really matter. As long as you're not trying to remove the class divide then you're good enough. Even the most racist republican would happily go along with a black president as long as said president didn't threaten the economic order. Its why Obama was allowed to do as much as he did.

'Free market,' market-oriented reform capitalism; think Reagan, Bill Clinton, any moderate or conservative before the trump era.

It has been the sole economic theory in power in the US since the 1970s, with more or less a sliding scale between more neoliberal (republicans before 2016) and less neoliberal/more classical liberal (Biden's and Harris's campaign messaging, not Biden's actual actions).

The reason it sounds confusing, especially in memes, is because you think dems and republicans have different economic theories behind their actions, when in actual legislative reality they're just more or less neoliberal, and the minute differences get overblown in campaign rhetoric.

If that's the lesson dems took from the election, dems are going to lose again.

Stop pushing far right republicans as the dem nominees, regardless of their supposed genitals.

Yes those are the people that should die. Sorry not everyone believes in suppressing others based on class or other immutable characteristics.

If you don't like that just ban me like you ban anyone that disagrees with you too much.

You're right, you brought up all of that because you don't understand that nearly no one is a capitalist. Capitalist does not mean someone that believes in capitalism or lives under it.

I get that you're undereducated, but do try to keep on topic. You're upset because you didn't understand what was said or what the argument was. And you're extra mad that someone that isn't a tankie isn't taking your side.

If they're middle class in this economy they're definitely wanting to be bourgeoisie and definitely would advocate killing the poor. Suburbanite also by definition fits that.

That's your defense of not understanding the word capitalist?

The true death of American manufacturing, an overvalued tech bubble that will bring down the global economy, and massive deregulation of financial rules that will end in the worst financial crisis since the Great depression?

That's the economy you want?

I mean this in the kindest way, but you're too illiterate for this conversation. Jobs have nothing to do with obtaining capital. You are not a capitalist if you have a job. You are a capitalist if you rent the means of production to the people with jobs in exchange for the majority of the wealth created.

You. Specifically you. Are not and will never be a capitalist. You will never have a significant amount of capital, and the vast majority of humans have none.

Read literally any theory, then join back. This is why we say you libs say every left wing person is a tankie. You don't know the basics, much less who is or isn't a tankie.

Its a golden shower. A billion years ago a spy paid by Republicans and the Clinton campaign claimed Donald Trump was comprised by Russia via recordings of himself being urinated on by underage Russian hookers. This sex act is frequently referred to as golden showers. A side note is that despite the allegation being children pissing on trump, many late night hosts wanted the pee tapes released to the public; proving yet again no one you see on tv is a good person now that Mr Rogers is dead.
