I loved A Blurred Line. If the guy who made it (Lysander?) appears after 20-whatever years and finally completes the story, I'd be elated. I'd even pay for it! Lol

I didn't even realize that you can tag users. How is it done?
"I don't know enough to have an informed opinion about this" is an admirable stance to take.
When it's a cop-out for not wanting to be politically informed, it's a crappy place to be. It can sound a lot like "I don't know and I don't care".
20ish years ago...
ELI5 How come paid cable TV channels are now running commercials? Is that not bad for business because most if not all people got it to avoid commercials?
Mmmm is something that people (English-speakers?) say when something tastes good, seems appetizing, or is interesting or arousing or something. It's not exactly a word, but it's not an onomatopoeia.
"Aaaarfgfhfhrhhhh" would be an example of someone typing frustratedly into the keyboard (or mashing their keyboard) because something didn't go their way. It's an arrangement of letters to express frustration. It isn't even necessarily a sound that anyone would vocalize. So it's an arrangement of letters that conveys a thought but isn't a word.
The first two do not fit the description, as neither is conveying a thought. Those aren't words. They're onomatopoeias.
They do convey thoughts, which is why you know what they mean.
They're not onomatopoeia, because they aren't made to reflect sounds (though the first one reflects a sound a person would produce with their vocal tract, those aren't usually called onomatopoeia).
Spoken words are still made up of letters, even if they're not written down.
Spoken language came before written language. Words existed long before letters were invented. So then letters making up words can't be the definition of words because words existed before letters existed to "form" them.
Just because they aren't roman letters, does not mean they aren't letters. Cuniform and hieroglyphs are just a different kind of letter.
They don't need to be Roman letters, but many written languages don't use letters. I'm not sure about cuneiform, but I know that not all hieroglyphs are letters. Chinese is another written language that doesn't use letters, for example.
Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
Fits your definition, isn't a word.

Doesn't fit your definition, could be considered a word
@$$
Doesn't fit your definition, could be considered a word.
Also, your definition doesn't include spoken languages, or words in languages that don't use letters to build words.
Star Control is there!
Of course, that one still has an incredible amount of support. Mostly fan support, but the original devs are finally making an official sequel to SC2!
I still see children walking alone where I live, but I'll admit that I can't compare it to when I was young because I don't pass by elementary schools before/after school to be able to see them.
I could definitely see it championed by some conservative people. Both ends of the political spectrum can have tendencies towards government control, depending on the topic.
Conservatism is often built upon fear. Also consider all of the studies linking right-wing political views to physiological differences like bigger amygdalas (which play a role in fear).
Some people will be fearful that children need to be protected at all costs, so they'll do things like this.
Just remember which side is doing things "for the children" as a scapegoat...hide the gays for the children, no drag story time to protect the children, no sex education (even books) to keep the children innocent. No walking alone outside to protect the children.
I'm not saying this particular Karen was Conservative, but I'm saying that she could be. I'm not sure why you're blaming Liberal people, but I'm sure you have explanations like I do (and I'd be curious to hear them), but I'd wager that the problem is not exclusively tied to either side of the political spectrum.
There's a difference between a claim and conjecture

I might be one update behind current as of Mar 18

Maybe there's a third class. People paid for who they are seem closer to people who are paid for what they have than to people paid for what they do.
