I have a feeling if the Iranian players truly fear for their lives if they lose, they fear the same outcome if they are not obviously trying to win.

They'd better hope the US can keep up their draw streak.

You just made me consider the age of the belt I'm wearing right now and I realized I've been using it nearly every day for 20 years. Got dang, how do decent belt manufacturers even stay in business?

It's not that unprecedented...US states totaling something like a third of the country's population already have similar laws on the books, don't they?

Reply to comment by Intrepid-Astronaut41 in An analysis of data from 30 survey projects spanning 137 countries found that 75% of people in liberal democracies hold a negative view of China, and 87% hold a negative view of Russia. However, for the rest of the world, 70% feel positively towards China, and 66% feel positively towards Russia. by glawgii
A lot of people in the US do, in fact, very vocally dislike it when those things happen. The thing about a representative democracy is that the country can still do things that a lot of citizens, sometimes even an actual majority of the voting public, do not approve of.
