This is such a toxic, selfish modern view. For most people, even with shitty parents, your still parents sacrificed for you and raised you. A loyal human would not abandon them wit…

I think the main issue is that most mental illnesses are vaguely defined clusters of problems - if you represented a diagnosis as a vector where each index corresponded to severity…

I don't doubt that Google pre IPO probably believed in their motto. It's the investor influence that has gradually steered Google into lucrative but ethically questionable domains.…

Except people are by default being told their opinions are incorrect because they disagree with the so called experts. Experts in a soft, non experimental, survey based scientific …

>Moreover, a person's field of expertise doesn't have any bearing on whether their ideas are correct Nor does their expertise preclude them from succumbing to personal or instituti…

This appeal to authority is enormously frustrating when the authorities are also blindly political. Think for yourself. The physical differences between men and women are patently …

>but once you’re in my ear with some misinformed ideas How the hell do you expect to get anything done in a society if you presume that any hurtful idea is misinformed? How can you…

What's naive is bending over backwards to pretend that men and women are identical, after millions of years of sexually dimorphic evolution. It's absurd that this is even a debate …

Multiple times per year in a country with 300MM people and what, tens to hundreds of thousands, if not millions of police interactions yearly? Obviously in the ideal case it would …

>You claim that police abuse of power is exceedingly rare I made no such claim. I said that being hurt or killed by an officer is an unlikely occurance for a typical person. That's…

Well then you are no doubt aware that these statistics skew overwhelmingly toward those who are noncompliant, combative, and/or felons, correct? Such that the actual rate for "aver…

The implication of OPs post was that this was a frequent enough occurrence to legitimately fear interactions with police. My point is that this is excessive, and partly a result of…

1/6 is literally 2 orders of magnitude smaller than 1/291. Nonsensical comparison. More importantly, how many of those hospitalizations/deaths are justified? You realize that polic…

That's plainly hysteria and you're only encouraging unnecessary distrust. The overwhelming majority of interactions with police for any race are benign. You've been manipulated by …

One man's trash...

>they universally believe that immunity is real and at least moderately long-lasting I haven't seen a single publication to this effect and there's no way to no for sure until enou…

You overestimate how much we know about COVID. Also herd immunity is neither guaranteed nor is it necessarily preferable to lockdown. We don't know how long immunity lasts on avera…

Sure, clearly we should just be printing even more money...why stop at 80% wage? Why not 100%? What works in England doesn't necessarily work in the US, and presuming that Republic…

>Has Russia recovered? Was there anything to recover? Sure they beat everyone to space but the economy wasn't exactly roaring. My family tells me you didn't really have any kind of…

>You realize that alcohol related deaths top 80,000 per year in the US? Alcohol consumption is a voluntary, pleasurable activity for the vast majority of drinkers, and the complica…

problem with your utopia is that in order to provide the vagaries of a "dignified life" you are compelling people to labor for others. We have not yet achieved post scarcity and th…

I think that's the nature of public corporations. Once the board starts to gain influence, the company is gradually steered by people who are not interested in image or philanthrop…
