    That Vox article is extremely well done. Count me among those who had heard the hyped original study, but not the rebuttals.

    Still a really shitty ratio, and I even loved the original authors’ responses to the rebuttals. Makes me hope they do a follow up.

    So much nuance behind what is acceptable when the US is a representative democracy (supposed to assume the representative is more educated on a voting topic than we are, so maybe our opinion is not as important a factor anyway).
