Your mistake is in thinking that representation in the media/web sphere = representation in the population. White I don't know the numbers, I reckon that the percentage of the population that doesn't want a headphone is less than half—possibly much less.

It doesn't matter how common the written error is, because the ambiguity is omnipresent in speech and we sort it out every day of our lives, so it will always be easy as fuck.
FYI, both of you are overacting. It's weird to react to the correction so seriously, but equally weird for you to get so offended by the error. Both of you be better.

So... actually that's not the case. They're only free at the point of sale. The government buys them. They've made money on every single one.

16 Aug: It’s Official. Ukrainians Liberate Towns. Immediately Push Deeper | War in Ukraine Explained
Reply in thread
The post title. What's official? That Ukraine liberated more than one town? That they're pushing deeper, immediately? That it happened on 2023-08-16?

The American civil war wasn’t about slavery.
Reply in thread
Most Americans naturally want the war to be about slavery—and they object to allegations it's not—because that's the morally righteous position, which is the position they want to believe their side held. So telling them the war was about slavery for the South, but the North really didn't give a shit, is not what they want to hear.
