    By strong evidence I was hoping you'd link to the bill, or to factual reporting from a credible mainstream newspaper. If you're getting news from strongly opinionated talking-heads…

    The article was about heresy which he defined as a factually correct statement that will destroy your life if stated. It wasn't about being an unpleasant person with unpopular opin…

    The article was about heresy which he defines as something which is factually true, not generic notions of free speech. If I can respectfully say something here: you're making swee…

    I consume a wide range of media every day and I've never seen a bill that "restricts voting access for people of color". It's an extraordinary claim so you would to need provide st…

    "not evasive the way this piece is" I presume you refer to the avoidance of examples in the article. Your comment suggest he was correct to do so. Some people will be desperate to …

    It's not buggy, it's deliberately written to be so annoying that you have no choice but to install the Reddit app. Reddit is a grotesque company, which for some reason gets a free …

    Reddit is a psychopath organisation. Strong words, but if you've ever followed a Google link to a Reddit page on mobile, then you would understand that no-one could accidentally bu…
