#122The Verge has truly become one of the most respected sites on the web. Some of the best reporting, tech or otherwise, is being done there. Kudos

It's disappointing that people increasingly expect news to be propaganda for their own side. The news is meant to be a source of information.

It's disappointing that people don't know the difference between having a stance and propaganda.

Sorry, it aligns with my politics so I rate it as one of the best
If you let ideology trump facts, why are you surprised when the "other side" does the same? Those who believe in facts watch both in horror from the sidelines.

I don't think I was a "bad person" at that age, but I certainly know that I said some cringy, stupid stuff that I certainly don't stand by anymore.
Quite frankly, I think it is far more concerning if a person can't identify anything that they have changed their mind on. We should celebrate when people change for the better instead of attacking them for having been bad in the past.

#129An amazon affiliate link wrapped in the mantle of edgy resistance. Ignoring that, why would anybody take this site serious for gasmask recommendations? Shallow and fast-food level information.

#130I'm a volunteer firefighter. I've wondered what my county's response would be if I borrowed one of our SCBAs (self-contained breathing apparatus) to wear to an anti-ICE demo or ICE observation incident. It's not a gas mask in the sense of this article, because as the name suggests it's an entirely self-contained air supply - it doesn't matter what is in the air at all.
