Not everything worth discussing is easily measurable.
If I were to say that U.S. democracy is deteriorating rapidly and hasn’t been in this sort of danger in decades, would you say I’m recklessly fear-mongering since it cannot be measured in a floating-point value with a rigorous, well-defined unit of measure?
You’re being needlessly contrarian and reductionist.
I’m sorry, but what?
