    “Most Americans Don’t Understand Nuance.”

    Most people, regardless of nationality, don’t understand nuance. That’s why Winston Churchill once said that the biggest argument against democracy is talking to an average person for five minutes.

      God damnit, I knew someone would do this. Case in point this is specifically about the American elections, therefore the nuanced implication refers to that.

      Yes, this can be extended. But you’re now being inclusive of the rest of the world’s shortcomings for what? The article is about Chappell Roan and the morons bitching about her not endorsing Kamala. Not voters in the UK.

        Typical American think their experience is the only universal truth and their group only matters in any discussion.

        American exceptionalism never fails; as if Americans are the only ones getting the same problem.

          I didn’t argue against that. Nor was it the topic of the article. But go on…

            Yours is a sentence that takes on 5 different meanings based on which word is stressed when spoken.

            Also, you missed the nuance in what TD wrote. And that’s high comedy this early in my morning.

              Yet they deleted the parallel comment deriding me for being “Murikan,” which seems to obviate any dual meaning. Anyway, enjoy the rest of your day.
