    Perhaps nihilism was too strong a accusation, but I still fear your position is leaving a loop hole open for nazis. Your case for logic and rationality reads like the status quo sh…

    > If Free Speech is suppressed through societal pressure, it's just as bad as the government doing it. You're confusing the market of free ideas with speech. Governments have milit…

    What do you think the motivation for the Google memo was, exactly?

    Hating? No. But certainly disappointed and disillusioned. With ethno-supremacist folks like Bannon and Miller having such high-level spots in the administration, and their executiv…

    It does make sense. Y Combinator has a relationship with Thiel. He's been declared as a partner many times in the past; now they're saying he's not. That's why I'm asking the rheto…

    Well, stop looking to profit-focused corporations to take care of us and start using what democracy we've got left.

    I'm aware. That why I said "oppose the Senator's vote to confirm Pompeo." She needs to be held accountable. Stop spending time responding to comments on the Internet if you haven't…
