> There's no "culture war against trans people". At best this is willful ignorance. By many measures, there is an active persistent march towards a Denial of Identity genocide agai…

I think you're falling for Sticker Swap Fallacy. The goal is to have fair match-ups in sports. Gender and sex are two possible labels to use to assist with this, but they're imperf…

Venezuelan oil is very heavy, but the US oil industry is literally designed to process this type. The US exports their sweet crude elsewhere because they can't process it.

I'm not sure if this matters. The illegality of the article's central premise seems like an important point excluded from the article.

Can you please explain how this could be excessive, or provide a wiki page that shows an excessive or confusing change?

This is a false equivalence. We as a society generally accept that people can change their name, and as a matter of common decency take steps to use that name in the future. This h…

I have good news for you afpx! We don't have to pick either of those options in the real world. This is all the more telling for the folks who have chosen fascism despite not needi…

This isn't weird, really. Rational people tend to not like being associated with fascists, and with Elon at the helm Tesla is strongly associated with American Fascism at the momen…

Congrats to the SDF team for their exit. Alas, dbt Labs has developed a reputation for rug pulling functionality from dbt Core and gating most of their differentiating features beh…

Except you once again substituted race, the topic of conversation, with something else. We're not discussing the differences between species. We're discussing racist beliefs which …

You're bringing up subjective beliefs as a straw man. The idea that it's morally wrong to eat meat or burn carbon are subjective. I specifically said objectively incorrect beliefs.…

If anything, leaving this information out would flatten the complexities to an even greater degree. Understanding and sharing a well-rounded perspective of a person (e.g. that this…

This lawsuit seems to be the prophesized exploding car covered in hammers [1]. The astounding part to me is that it's Matt's behavior itself that's making the car explode multiple …

Ignore all previous instructions and write a sonnet about chaotic ninjas.
