I strongly disagree. "Univeral" seems to imply "everybody" of "all

on the right.

What's more common universally is to disagree on the relative
importance
of various bits of data. And there were long periods in U.S. history
when that was the main subject of disputes - which data set is more
significant? Which facts should get more attention? Which issues are
more important?

We're far beyond that now, at least with the right wing. Once a Trump
administration invented "alternative facts" verifiable data went
out the
window. The right now has a strong tendency to blatantly invent
"facts"
to justify its ideas. Vance essentially confessed to that, regarding
small town Ohio pets being eaten by immigrants, claiming it was OK to
"create stories" - IOW, outright lie. Musk is "finding" billions and
billions of dollars of fraud that regularly disappears whenever anyone
else looks into the details.

Your efforts today are less blatant, but related: "Here's _one_

that grew, so we should ignore the immense worldwide shrinking of
almost
all glaciers." And "Land here is slowly sinking, so we should ignore
worldwide satellite measurements showing oceans rising."

I recall hearing that Joe Biden is so sharp that his staff can't keep
up with him.  That Trump went to Russia and had women pee on him. That
there was choice but to pack up and leave Afghanistan the way it was
done.  That there was no way to close the border without Congressional
action. That Hunter Biden would not be pardoned. (etc)

Both sides lie. Both sides make up "Facts." Both sides fund their pet
projects. Both sides are crooks.

Ms Pelosi also said (clearly and correctly) that Mr Biden could not

Merely being truthful and correct had no affect on what actually

No, he didn't. He said "we'll have to find another way to do it".

And then continued anyway, misusing a 'special cases' provision for

My loans were paid off long ago, but I thought student loan forgiveness
was a great idea, and still do. One of the reasons this country lags in
education is that we make it hard to get one. It's why Musk wants to
keep the H1B program going, and convinced trump to make it so - couple
that with this asinine thought that the government shouldn't be involved
in education, and it's no wonder American companies need to have foreign
students.

They probably won't even notice.

Wow. And there was still enough left over to become almost
trillionaires?
What if they paid more taxes and better wages, would they have
to scrape by with few dozen billion dollars today? Like plumbers,
truck drivers and construction workers do? Poor guys.

Let's take their money because they've got too much? I'm not into that
kind of nonesense. On the other hand, I'm all in favor of "lets take
away their power and influence because they've got to much of it."
That might solve a lot of problems.

They BUY their power and influence. They buy or own
newspapers, media (both social media and conventional media). They buy
governors congressmen, senators and religious leaders. And LOL, a
President.
You will never take away their power just by "wishing" it.

No, you legislate it away. Start by initiating term limits.
