    That would be strong evidence in court of copyright infringement and possibly trade secret theft.

    The only substitute for a mob-mentality-enforcing downvote system is human moderation by heroes who can withstand such pressure and biases.

    There's really no point. Hundreds to thousands of people are contracting covid every day in every city across America. Over the course of five days in December, there were one mill…

    The petty legalism is just a technique for people to stop thinking about their flagrant hypocrisy. As if the people screaming "they're a private business, they can do what they wan…

    War is often nobler than what your typical management consultant does.

    As if being nice makes you a good person. Excessive niceness is usually rooted in cowardice and naïveté, or calculating ambition and greed. If you met me you’d find I’m pretty chee…

    They are probably vile in sum too. The human being is truly a wretched creature. A few, I imagine, might come out barely positive in a total accounting of deeds and intentions. But…

    Human beings really are disgusting, despicable creatures. The only thing to do is get on our knees and beg God for forgiveness. I’m not even kidding. As I get older, I am just more…

    What makes “killing the unborn is wrong” impermissible religious influence but “killing already-born people is wrong” not? Or why is it okay for people to vote to take one man’s pr…

    The Supreme Court is not a tribunal on moral philosophy. It's tasked with interpreting the law, no more and no less. And in fact, it was up for a vote. Except the vote was of 9 peo…

    If you want to do business in a country, then you have to follow the laws of that country. Polish courts would enter judgment against the company for violating Polish law, premisin…

    You can't really defend the US Supreme Court's actions on gay marriage from any legal viewpoint other than "because five justices said so" and "what are you gonna do about it." Pop…

    You're only really a liberal democracy if the ruling elite can coerce private actors to take the repressive actions instead of doing it officially. You must also allow your civil s…

    Those deaths are almost all among the extremely old or extremely unhealthy. Consider that that vast majority of doctors and nurses are neither.

    Not everyone did. Only virtue signaling addicts like Cuomo and Newsom.

    Everyone said this would happen but Cuomo was more interested in virtue signaling about vaccine priority lists. Meanwhile, Florida has required all vaccine doses to be distributed,…

    Gab’s position is that they will censor no more than the law requires.

    I said exactly what I meant to say. Saying that the government ought to be overthrown is a long protected American right. The book stores are full of books arguing just that. Peopl…

    Conspiracy theories that might drive someone to violence are protected speech in this country. Many “conspiracy” theories have proved true, e.g. the CIA’s insane antics in the 50s-…

    Every video conference must send streams to the SPLC, ADF, and FBI to make sure that no ideas or theories that might incite violence are being shared.

    Beyond the tragedy of the commons w/r/t the general public, the other problem (or maybe a specific aspect of the same problem) is that the commercial beneficiaries of shorter copyr…

    “I was born this way” is no longer the thinking w/r/t homosexuality. It was a short-lasting trope actually, probably more political than scientific in origin. Modern theories leave…
