- kristofferR 5y agoWhat was then the point of the mailbox Amazon created and surveilled, and removed after the election?
- PaulDavisThe1st 5y agoAny particular reason why you're so confident of this?
- fsckboy 5y agoI was correcting a mistake, and my correction stands, it's really not a matter of opinion. He meant to say that some influence would take place, and he called that tipping the scales, which is not some influence, it's enough influence to change the outcome. I'm confident that you have misunderstood, I'm not confident of the reason why. edit: listen, you downvoting stooge, me saying "would not definitely happen" is not the same as saying "definitely would not happen" if that is your mistake, and what I'm saying about tipping the scales is correct if that is your mistake. You are flunking english comprehension atm.
- PaulDavisThe1st 5y agoSince you're actually replying to me, I want to point out that I never downvote comments I reply to.
- danaris 5y ago"Tipping the scales" does not necessarily mean changing which pan of the scales is higher (ie, changing the outcome). It just means shifting the balance.
