    And yet you have not linked to the mediabiasfact site's profile of the sources you provided...That is an example of bias. Are you going to answer my question? Ps. This is a new acc…

    Do you offer biased positions with the intent of provoking a "flamewar" and thus getting articles and dicussions that you do not like flagged?

    Why is this being downvoted? It is a interesting contribution and gives valuable insight into the article that has been posted.

    "gas stations, convenience stores, car washes" I've noticed these places being mentioned a lot in illegal immigration reports. But you have chosen to use the word "migrant"...

    Incase you didn't see the other comment. They take 5% + $0.50 for each transaction. Seems pretty high to me, guessing that is why they're effectively hiding this information. Inter…

    I like how on hacker news every personal problem can be solved by three activities; Therapy, Meditation, and...Salsa! It's probably good advice. Although, I like to combine all thr…

    A trivial example of the pervasiveness of what you are describing is the fact my comment that merely stated "These things are no mutually exclusive" got flagged within 30 seconds. …

    These things are not mutually exclusive. You can not have one with out the other. I had mentors, but I had no discipline. Did not work out.

    I saw people express skepticism before this stuff, that is part of why this is effective. It partly depends upon there being low trust in "sources of truth". Want to know the funny…

    Do you think the behaviour you describe in the first paragraph is connected to the result in the second?

    If you want to see an example of what you are yearning for, I'd suggest reading about the history of coffeehouses in England.

    "the land of opportunities where you can make it" The above is old propaganda. It was true. It is becoming less and less true. The things you listed are all connected.

    No, western people do not care about Iran and China, providing they are not actively making their lives worse. And vice versa. I think the attitude you are expecting people to have…

    Good. I've been thinking about something like this. You should make the title Qliiq-ible(clickable).

    Yes, it is now their asset. After they built a stake and gained control. Even the common takeover trope of relationship building between an insider and the acquirer happened here. …

    Apperantly, "Google builds many critical web apps using the Dart language, often with AngularDart." [1] I have never heard this from anyone else though. [1] https://dart.dev/web

    I know people say this a lot on Hacker news...but, that is not the model of Venture Capital. And the Vision Fund has not only invested in high risk ventures. https://visionfund.com…

    By the way...This publication is owned by Morningstar inc. Guess you invested in Morningstar inc. during the dotcom bubble? Softbank. $91million for 20%

    The Vision Fund is in London. Are they the ones writing the cheques? :)
