We could right now be in emergency. How to be sure we’re not? Seems at least as likely as we’re past the Singularity, or we’re living in a simulation.

I assume before market creation doesn't count.

@ShadowyZephyr Not sure that would make a difference.

@BTE It would.

@ShadowyZephyr When did he have 50 percent approval? His vote total does not equate to an approval rating.

it above 50% until mid-2021.

But it does seem to me that the market should be interpreted as "after market creation", especially given that it was otherwise true from the start.
