The problem is, every stutter is different. Root causes are often different. It can't just be hand-waved away. We can endlessly repeat that James Earl Jones "beat" his stutter or that Joe Biden became...

Political trolls, bots, or stupid people. Comment section on youtube, facebook, tiktok is usually cesspoll, like repeating that biden ate icecream as some fault and god hundred of likes. Also these co...
