What’s with the bootlickers in these posts ?

Not a bootlicker -- if the commenter said the video is of Lander assaulting law enforcement, I expect to see it.

Edit: this was the video linked https://x.com/courtneycgross/status/1935010369077915990

The USA is 34% bootlickers.
still less than a quarter
34% is more than a quarter
I combed that story over and couldn't find out if it was true. Did it fail because 4 is biffer than 3?
Huh, yeah the article just kind of... ends. Strange. The fiasco has a wiki article so make of that what you will:

>This misunderstanding stemmed from consumers focusing on the numbers "3" and "4," leading them to conclude that one-third (1/3) was smaller than one-fourth (1/4), even though the opposite is true

I wonder if there's a correlation between those consumers and Trump voters?

haha yes
