      It’s right there on the top of the graph.

      “Which of the following animals, if any, do you think you could beat in a fight if you were unarmed?”

        It would be difficult to fight anything without arms. I guess you could just do roundhouse kicks but arms would be much more useful.

          Thats why the brits have an advantage, all that.soccer helps their kick attacks.

          Americans obviously overrate themselves by what ever percent they think they can beat an elephant, bear, or gorrila.

          Correct, my whole point is it’s vague enough to take advantage of so it’s not actually indicative of much aside from malicious compliance.

            I feel like unarmed is not vague enough to allow for machine guns lol

              “if you were unarmed”

              I’m unarmed, the fellas i hire may not be but that isn’t the question.

                You were super fun on the playground I’m sure

                  This isn’t the playground, I’m not sure your point. Ask an inane questions I’m going to give you absurdist but logical answers.

                  That said, I haven’t met a single person who has said that who doesn’t themselves seem insufferable.

                      Yeah i think we all get that as that’s what it usually is and I stand by my point.

        Gotta play the grey. I could beat them in a fight by hiring a mercenary or team of mercenaries.

        I’m still unarmed, I could even be involved in the fight and still not be armed and win the fight.

        Similarly the definition of unarmed varies wildly by culture and language so first let’s define unarmed and then we can decide how and where to play the language of the question.

            Wouldn’t be the first time no, lawyering language is generally not a popular thing to do.

              You aren’t lawyering anything, you’re just refusing to take a very simple question at face value

                That’s literally lawyering, theres a reason the supreme court determines if something is too vague.
