The idea that “Inuit” have a single language is evidently the first issue, but
the idea behind the myth seemingly came from an 1800s anthropological study that
mentioned four separate words. Many of the languages apparently have
agglutinative qualities (like German, where you can just moosh more things on
the end of a word to make a new one) as well as their cultures having a lot to
do with snow (and thus likely having more jargon around it) leading to people
running with ever-increasing numbers of words for snow that these “rudimentary”
people had for “such a simple concept”.

I was scrolling through these earlier thinking that surely, in light of the
recent subpoenas, most or all of the regular people that were inside the Capitol
that day have been identified and/or apprehended. Apparently that is not the
case; scrolling down on this page and filtering photos by unidentified brings up
a ton more photos than I would have expected. Some of these are really clear as
well – I feel like some of these people should have been identified by now.
Anyway, if you’ve got time to scroll through some pics maybe spend a couple
minutes and see if you can’t thwart some treason!
