To be fair, he's probably more fun at parties than the socially-challenged antifa squad downvoting me

I'm not religious, but it's hard to ignore the comparison: "Also it causes all, both small and great, both rich and poor, both free and slave, to be marked on the right hand or the…

Hong Kong is at the top - looks like that list will need to get updated soon.

This is a really lovely comment.

To clarify, I'm not suggesting an outright ban - that would be a foreign policy gaffe of monumental proportions. I also have no prejudice towards Chinese people, but I do feel that…

I think the situation is much more complicated than that. Who do they have allegiance to? What are their ideals, inculcated from their family and society from a young age, even if …

I definitely agree with what you're suggesting would be a great idea, but I'm not sure something like that could happen in the near future. I get the impression that the Democrats …

Last one regarding, for example, US developing a massive competitive advantage with the internet right after their housing market crash. I won't debate any further because clearly …

By the same token, there's no reason to think they'll fall anywhere near or under 5% in the near future. They have 1.5 billion people with a higher average IQ than the US with a st…

I don't think it's going far enough. There are several hundreds variables completely separating China and the USSR and Japan from a blanket comparison. I would like to hope that th…

I don't really see MAD as being a given, especially depending on if China or the US develops rapid technological advancements over the next few decades. I think it's a really unlik…

It seems like he's come up with a very dubious dumbing down of why Germany went to war and appropriated it for his own reasons. As an aside, it's interesting to watch how people on…

That’s a very common term which he did not coin, so it’s ridiculous to ascribe that to him. Also- correct me if I’m wrong- when he uses it, it will be solely in regard to internet …

First of all, the tech industry isn’t even part of Steve bannon’s platform- they’re only referring to unskilled labor from what I’ve seen - we’re not on their radar. Second, your c…

This program needs to end. H1B a bandaid over our complete failure to provide a modern education and bring young people into STEM, while dually deflating middle class wages for the…

Are you implying balkanization of the internet is a bad thing? An open internet seems like a stoner hippie concept - as it stands currently, we're playing around in an open field w…

I agree it’s not a new phenomena and never said that it was. I’d argue that our news was historically fair-minded up until the recent mass-scale polarization.

There's no shortage of people who share that same "belief", but would end up writing down a different and conflicting list of people than you, with no loss of accuracy

News should only be taken with a grain of salt in 2018

False positives probably aren't a huge concern over in Putinville

Exactly

That sounds like the renaissance we've all been waiting for. Every would-be entrepreneur's wet dream is a $20/month subscription for Facebook.
