    It's interesting to see comments like this that sound like they were written by someone who recently went through a social justice course at university. Of course, I understand the…

    To further feed these tortured analogies, your car is rusted and has no wheels. Replacing the transmission is pointless and it's time to send it to the wreckers and get a new car.

    Correct, and companies only ever pretended to care about measures of diversity that didn't hurt their bottom line too much. How about software diversity, where one doesn't have to …

    You're assuming it's possible to incrementally improve the situation, but maybe a "crackpot" is the best we can manage. If we could put someone truly, brilliantly competent and unc…

    This is a pattern we see again and again. The true believers are fools because they don't anticipate how the implementation of their doctrine will be gamed.

    > Half the populace elected a blubbering rapist, felon, and fascist to lead them. Again. Your kind of ignorance is so tiresome. It's one of the best arguments for doing away with d…

    Trump may not have deserved to win, but the Democrats deserved to lose - and I'm relieved they did. Maybe after this rematch the blue team will finally understand the loss was thei…

    This is complete nonsense. Israel isn't pursuing genocide. They've killed less than 100,000 Palestinians out of several million. That's obvious restraint compared to what they coul…

    It's not about "failing". Boeing lobbied for special treatment to save some cash instead of fixing a safety issue. For that, the death penalty is appropriate.

    No, it's a woman who uses her sexual allure to attract and extract money from lonely boys.

    Yes, the punishment should be immense. But we all know there's no real justice to be had here. In places like China, there's personal accountability at the highest level of an org …

    Not all cultures have the same personality. Some combinations are more compatible than others.

    > Germany is as racist as it gets. Not even close to true. Most countries in the world are more racist than Germany.

    Healthcare is not free, it's taxpayer funded and consumes a huge portion of the national budget.

    Wait until the definition of hate speech changes to include something _you_ want to say.

    What does "safest speech" even mean? Most boring? Orthodox? Speech that doesn't cause negative emotion?

    I've done nine days on water only and it was fantastic. It reset my tastebuds and simple foods tasted great again. Not to mention the weight loss.

    Yeah, beauty and fun aren't necessary. Maybe we should instead exist in a drab, brutalist world. That ought to decrease emissions a fair bit.

    This is what pathological inclusion gives us - a lack of conflict between ideas, which means there can be no proper evolution of ideas. So inferior ideas end up wallowing in their …

    What's this trend of telling others to please do something? I've seen it all over HN this year and it's so condescending.

    He was POTUS, that's why. And still they got rid of him as soon as they could. Less well known figures got booted for less.
