    You are correct, and I admit that I grossly simplified the situation to make it succinct.

    Is it unjustified? By what measure? Alcohol taxes fund the social welfare system, and alcohol taxes the social welfare system. Alcohol tax is rationally connected to it's purpose. …

    Really? I think he knows exactly what he's doing. He realized he could make a name (in infamy) for himself by co-opting the abomination that is the alt-right. And no, I don't reall…

    I don't see any sources linked in the article, nor any quotes from any officials or excerts from any documents. Not saying this article is bunk, but what's the foundation for these…

    I think my favorite part of this bot is that the bot replies don't even reference what the troll said. It just spits back a different phrasing of "you're wrong" over and over and o…

    Only if there was any reasonable basis to believe that infringement had taken place. Most countries have some sort of pre-trial hearing before a civil suit to determine if there's …

    i've noticed when i'm called by telemarketers that it's dead silent when i answer. no background noise, no static, just the click that this guy is talking about. if i don't say any…

    Look, I know this article is a bit diluted, but haven't you always wanted to hear your favourite music filtered through an obnoxious reverb filter? Imagine, you can now have the ex…

    Every time I see one of these 'XYZ start-up is going to change the legal world' I shake my head. There seems to be this misguided idea that lawyers are essentially programmers, and…
