The time for rallying is now, every state had a protest this month on the 5th (50501). There’s another one happening on President’s Day. Attending these shows that people who are fed up are real and are here. I don’t think peaceful protests will necessarily effect change BUT they are a place to gain visibility, meet like minded individuals, and build support groups. It won’t grow if people don’t show up!

You said it’s not runtime type checking but then switched to “strict type checking” - those aren’t the same. Other person has it right, it has runtime type checking. The type checking happens when running your code. I don’t think that’s particularly useful, it’s pretty much sugar on top of what would throw an error anyway.
