The right isn't burning down buildings, the left is. The right isn't violently clashing with the police, the left is. The right is not looting, the left is. The right is not settin…

I mean, I've been seeing out of my window in downtown Seattle hate groups marching on a nearly nightly basis, the difference with these hate groups being that they burn down vehicl…

You could make the same argument about the normal flu, pre-covid, which kills many tens of thousands of people in the US every year. The normal flu has killed many multiples the nu…

As an analogy, opening my window increases my chance of getting skin cancer by letting more light in. Should I therefore always keep my window closed? Is the increased risk of canc…

I know this issue is all political at this point, but if you want an honest answer, I personally believe most of the points you laid out. Here's my rationale for the points you men…

I'd suggest not letting your political views get in the way of judging facts and lines of reasoning. No matter what somebody's political stance is, you should be able to judge an a…

I'm surprised to see so much advocating for digital currency in here. Is nobody else worried about the government having an electronic record of every transaction that's made? They…
