Why not? Not all narratives are fictional. They're just all stories. Although the part I always find a bit weird with climate change is that all the counter-arguements seem so poor. Like even if somehow it's not man-made, if the e

I'm not sure 1FA applies to non-US individuals on non-US soil. Once they're in the country, sure. ---- Not that I think it's been demonstrated that this policy will improve US security or etc. Wonder if the APA applies here.
