The thing is, one side has seen a loss of life measuring around 20,000 in the past couple months and the other side less than 2,000. So this kind of flattening of "pro-Palestinian vs pro-Israeli" obscures the reality of the situat

Decline is an inevitable consequence of overreaching and then slamming into material constraints. Prosperity is not exactly sustainable. Inequality can only occur when wealth creation outpaces the distributive functions of an economy.

So you're just going to assume the problem doesn't exist because you'd be surprised if it did? There's skepticism, and then there's sticking your head in the sand...

I'm not understanding your confusion. Different concepts require different words to distinguish them in conversation. p-value is a name, not merely a descriptor, of one possible way to define a threshold. Other ways of defining thresho

"p-value" as a term already has a definition -- one that imposes a frequentist perspective -- so you'd have to come up with a new term to define a Bayesian analogue of that concept.
