You're missing the point. No one will be caught entering the U.S., with or without a visa, in a Sunnyvale mall parking lot. All you will likely be able to catch is unlawful presenc…

I really don't think you understand the difference between unlawful presence and improper entry. One of these is a crime while the other is not. Restating your false premise at the…

Unlawful presence is 100% of the offenses you'll be able to catch in a Sunnyvale mall parking lot, and it disproves the OPs contention that they are all "criminal, by definition."

Unlawful presence, which is all anyone at a mall in California could be charged with, is a civil matter, not a crime. Unless there's some international border in Sunnyvale I missed…

If you think Ayaan Hirsi Ali wants conversation rather than extremist actions, I believe you may have missed the bulk of her work. For example, this Reason interview ( http://reaso…

Ignored it again, and don't be coy, come out and state your opinion.

You completely ignored the first part of my comment. It's convenient, too, that a ruling against the people you disagree with is considered just, but you'll withhold judgment if it…

What do you mean "there aren't others that are material?" Thiel himself has said that he's funding other suits against Gawker. The impending threat of a billionaire with a personal…

Considering this is the only one of the lawsuits he's funded that he's revealed, it's unclear that all of them have merit. On top of that, they forum shopped this specific case and…

This sounds like it's meant to be a correction, but the post your responding to mentions neither legal fees nor damages. Are you responding to the right comment?

I think you're having difficulty distinguishing the concepts of "shunning" and "genocide."

Comment #11821011
Please try to follow the conversation. I was addressing the claim that shunning certain beliefs would cause society to collapse, and I've clearly demonstrated that to be false. Not…

The marketplace of ideas means you don't get to dictate what others find relevant. For some, this means that they don't want to be professionally or socially associated with someon…

No worries, I've tried to be precise but text is sometimes a difficult medium to get my point across.

Comment #11819609
I am stating that there are plenty of beliefs that do not cause society's collapse if we shun them. The only reason I mentioned Moldbug was that he's part of the dialog here, and I…

You're grasping a bit on this. Logic does not dictate that there were implied ill-feelings on 5F36B5F62640's behalf. In fact, I can categorically state that from the one post I've …

Where would that subhuman line be? If they think an adult from one ethnic group is as intelligent as an infant in another, but that there's nothing wrong with that, is that believi…

That was the example Moldbug used, claiming that Africans made genetically better slaves than Native Americans. 5F36B5F62640 contended that the groups that were not better slaves s…

Under point 1, a belief that some ethnic groups are less intelligent than cattle, but believing that it is not a negative trait, would not be racist? I'd classify that as a racist …

"Wrong-think" as a phrase is one of those thought-terminating clichés. People are voicing their disagreements with his professed viewpoints, yet you are using that cliche to dismis…

If thinking ethnic groups are genetically predisposed to being poor or in jail is not racist, what would qualify as racist?

Wait, so your argument is that only Native Americans would feel unwelcome in this community? Is this supposed to be in his favor? EDIT: For clarity

This is absolutely silly. Just to take it to absurdity, and I'm not claiming Moldbug is a member of the Nazi party, but society would not collapse if we shunned people who espoused…

Do you think there's an ethnic group genetically more likely to be poor or in jail?
