there was a pretty serious resurgence of it around waitforit the turn of the millennia back in 1999/2000
I know a lot of people have that perception, but it doesn’t necessarily make it true. Do you know of any studies that have looked into this?

That how I interpreted it too, but has there really been that much of an increase? The Wikipedia articles they linked doesn’t mention any increase at the turn of the century.
According to Wikipedia, Millenarianism has been around for a long time, and it sounds like the Christian “rapture” is a good example. Your post seems to imply it’s a recent thing (ie. 21st century), but maybe I’m misinterpreting what you’re trying to say?
They are fundamentally different types of vehicles. But putting that aside, if you want to compare the largest payload that each vehicle can transport you wouldn’t just use the pickup truck’s GVWR, you would also include it’s towing capacity. There’s a reason 90% of the time people use a pickup to haul something, they’re towing.
This is why we can directly compare the two vehicles payload capacity.
No, comparing a zeppelin with a pickup will never be a direct comparison.
You’re comparing a pickup truck to a zeppelin, there’s no way to make that apples to apples. If someone needs to move something big with a truck they’re probably going to tow it, not try to load it into the bed.
They only need 2 kids for just the tickets alone to be $800/day. That’s not including hotel, transportation, food, etc. It’s easy to see how 7 days could cost them $7000.
Because of their smaller and the switch to helium Zeppelin NTs has a miniscule payload capacity at 4200 pounds. To put that into perspective that’s the same payload capacity as a Ford F250.
And that’s only the bed capacity. An F250 can tow over 20,000 lbs depending on the trailer design. Most trucks and SUVs can tow >4200lbs.
Pretty arrogant to assume they’re different companies when you don’t even know what stores I’m talking about…
Here’s an example of a grocery chain/pharmacy company: https://www.kroger.com/health/pharmacy
They even have gas stations. Costco is another example, but they do a lot more than groceries (automotive work, etc). Not sure why you think one store can’t offer multiple services?
Several categories like incitement, false advertising and CSAM should not be acceptable “speech”.
In those examples it’s not the speech that’s illegal, there’s a real crime that the speech is part of. False advertising is a form of fraud, but if there’s no fraud involved (satire, humor, education, etc) it’s legal.
I brought up OTC drugs to help make my point that the pharmacy and grocery store are the same.
If freedom of speech only applies to “acceptable” speech, then it isn’t really freedom of speech.
The pharmacy can ring up anything from the grocery store. And you can pay for OTC drugs at the grocery checkout instead of the pharmacy checkout. It’s the same store…
The ones I’m thinking of are inside the store and owned by the same corporation.
Lots of grocery stores have pharmacies. I wonder if health data collected through the app would be protected by HIPPA…
“Tribal?” A lot of Democrats supported this, it seems like a rare example of bipartisan cooperation to me. Why do you think it’s an example of tribalism?
Not sure why you’re being so pushy?
Anyway, here’s the correct link. It should answer your question…

Did you read the article I linked?
I know I already said I’m out, but that’s the most truthful thing you’ve said in this entire conversation. Thanks for finally being somewhat honest.
Not their supply chain, everyone else’s.
