How is that any different from European censorship? Nazism is despicable, but censoring the Nazi voice is effectively the same as preventing citizens from having those "dissident t…

I don't understand the outrage about censorship particularly with respect to the Chinese government. Google has agreed to remove plenty of stuff from the search engine that many Eu…

Is there a progression to this one might follow?

But I can't see why regulation must be necessary to maintain net neutrality; of course it's a good thing, I'm just not sure the government necessarily needs to mandate it. Document…

I'd written a paragraph explaining why your arguments are wrong and asking you to reevaluate your viewpoint. But forget that. I'll ask you this: UC Berkeley, a school that does not…

Except this isn't true; there are many cases where inequality of outcome is not a cause of inequality of opportunity - unless you're telling me the system actively encourages men t…

This is pretty clearly documented. In universities that don't consider race or gender in admissions (notably the UC system and Caltech), the minority rate tanks (except for Asian-A…

It is matching society, however: CollegeBoard testing statistics reveal that in high school girls take AP Computer Science much less frequently than boys - at proportions fairly cl…
