Between 2020 and 2024 there was about 22% inflation. 1.22x$195,400=$238,388. So there's still over $110,000 of price inflation to account for past devaluation of the dollar.

The Curtis Yarvin / Peter Thiel "Dark Enlightenment" was overtly anti-democracy and had some dollars behind it, but has been a clown show of an ideology from the start (over 15 years ago) and has only withered more in daylight.
Whether it's morally right, there's a wide canyon between proposing an entire alternative political system, and deplatforming people on X or Starlink.
This "every third party vote is a vote for $republican_candidate" noise comes around every four years like clockwork. Third party votes are not just protest votes from wayward Democrats.
So why even mention your million rounds as a reply to "I just fired a gun right next to your head, neither of us was wearing ear protection and now we’re having a conversation at normal volume"? Talk about ignorant.
You realize it's a function of distance and that function is logarithmic, right? A gunshot at one foot is a hundred times louder than it is at 20 feet. If you were exposed to a million gunshots of any caliber from a foot away, you would be profoundly deaf.
I've shot a few thousand rounds. 9mm is very loud. Shoot it in a closed space just once without earpro and you will cause permanent damage to your hearing.
I don't think a million round sample size would help you in judging this.
You have a right to a cat. If you do not have one, one will assign itself to you.
What's hilarious about this is that obstructed barrels actually can explode into ribbons just like the cartoons. A finger might not do it though, and not sure how many volunteers you'd get for a scientific test.
That's true and worth noting. The difference is much starker when the benchmark is food and fuel, since real estate (and stocks) rose much higher compared to other things.
