About damnfine
Your moderation used to keep up, but its just reddit in here now, with slightly better submissions, and a few decent commenters that still occasionally show up to the dump when they see something shiny (their name).
I applaud YCs recent attempts at media, to help raise the bar here on news, but its an uphill battle without ousting the trolls.
Goodnight sweet prince and all that. I may still read you on the shitter, but I feel contributing is more trouble than its worth now. I suspect others may feel the same, but I can obviously only speak for myself.

To some. There are also quite a few traveling americian yuppies that trade aid for 'souls', for the sole purpose of bragging about it back home. Its an unfortunate mix.

That is the most intelectually lazy thing I think I have ever seen posted on HN. Would 'nigger' end your argument on black people?

If you are willing to gamble real money on that assertion, its there for the taking.

But very few go to trial because the courts cannot afford to try that many cases. So, like most social issues, where does the money come from? Edit: I want to be clear. I agree wit…

If one dimension is limited compared to others, it makes sense to call it psudeo 3d, because all planes are not fully realized. But it is still clearly invoking a 3rd dimension, ma…

All my meat is raised on open pasture locally, fed only on wild grasses. I specifically said factory farms are a clear problem. Thanks for talking past me and ignoring my point. Th…

I can't agree more. I grew up next to a theater and it was the thing to do. The last decent movie experince I can recall was the film print showing of the hateful eight. I didnt ev…

That argument just lowers the bar. It can be a shallow movie and also not insult my intelligence and cram product placements into every other shot. Bad filmmaking is bad. Do not ma…

But you still pay the fees from the banks failings, so it really does hurt everyone even when the bank eats it.

Murdering an 18 year old kid for painting a wall is not accountability.

It is literally the facts ot the story. Repeating strawman does not further your argument, or anyones opinion of your reasoning skills.

The big differince is where you are tased, and for how long. I have done taser training and we usually got it in the leg, rather than across the chest, as most deployments happen.
