It seems that policy could backfire? Eventually, they're basically subsidizing the production of bad reviews.

Note that the most helpful review is someone who did not buy one. Same with the second. And the third. > Sample provided for review. > Got this at no cost for unbiased review. > *I received a sample product from Ivation. Reviews are much more scattered if you filter by "Verified purchase only". It's interesting that this drops the number of reviews from 165 to 104 for a product which is designed for and presumably so…
Occasionally, there will be a shining star. Recently I ordered an AIO printer and a reviewer had a fairly comprehensive reviews on multiple models, almost at a short article length.
Music seems to be one category where I sometimes find value in the reviews. It seems like people are more forthcoming about their music tastes, even though subjective, than what they think about utilitarian products.

It's actually both. Religious nepotism often requires discrimination based on religion.
Jewish isn't a race. It isn't necessarily racial discrimination to just hire Jewish people (a Jewish person can be white, black, whatever). Is it discrimination based on religion? Obviously.
Now this is a capitalist. This guy is what happens when you make it easy for someone to go make a new-and-improved product.
I say Amazon is the real capitalist in this story.

Completely ignore amazon reviews. They are mostly bogus these days. Unless you can find 3 star reviews, I usually read those.
If you think a review is bogus you could always click the "no" button to indicate that the review is not helpful. You can also report the review and tell Amazon that you think the review is bogus. Do you have any data to back up the claim that most of the recent reviews are bogus?
Yes, after buying numerous products with great ratings and discovering that the people who rated the product negatively were often right about their complains.
From what I have seen people don't put to much effort to praise products, however they take the time to complain when they feel unsatisfied or burnt by a product.
I'm not trying to convince you or anyone but this methods has worked rather well for me.

If it was a race as we contemplate race in its current definition, it would be on the government form I posted. It isn't. It's not a race like that (nor, really, in any other way). Yes, some Jews have a common genetic pattern. Many don't. Either you're talking about the religion, which is clearly not a race (as you said). Or you're talking about a group that generally shares the same religion, that descended from a f…
Finally, a comment with some specific counterpoints. I appreciate it. So, you're saying that many works just wrongly conflate concepts of a group and race to the point that there's a misconception about the existence of a Jewish race? Also, given the form, that there are only 5 races in existence?
That's pretty much what I'm saying. I think the 5 races on the form conform to my understanding of race, so I think that part is right as well.
I guess fundamentally I can't wrap my head around the idea of identifying a religious group and calling that a race. As I mention, we don't do it with any other religious group, so why Jews?
