    Theft is wrong. Full stop. What an age to live in when people are considering theft a good thing.

    True. The Ganges is probably one of the most disgusting things on earth. If your religion involves worshipping (and drinking of) a river full of poop and bloated human corpses, I c…

    How astonishing that a nation like India is just now learning to poo in the loo, yet somehow we in the west still think it's sensible to outsource our tech work to them (and then a…

    The real answer is that the mainstream news, in the USA especially, is a very homogeneous group: pro-establishment, leftist, globalist Jews. It's not surprising that they would for…

    The US net neutrality system is a fast track to government regulation of the Internet. If you want to keep the Internet free, oppose it.

    Ah yes, the good old "let's steal from others", because that has worked so well in the past (but it's okay because it wasn't real communism so you try again and your retarded syste…

    I'd say 4chan probably changed my life the most. Not only did it have a big influence on my tastes to this day, it also (indirectly) introduced me to some of my best friends and ta…
