- omginternets 10y agoThat's totally missing the point. We can both condemn the stupid/wrong behavior and celebrate the intellectual achievements. The point is that we shouldn't hold back our praise of the latter on account of the former. This is a typical false-dichotomy that plagues contemporary discourse around social justice and various *isms.

- omginternets 10y agoHardly an argument, though. If we abided by your reasoning, the US wouldn't have a space program.
- ricksplat 10y agoWhat's there to argue about? You think you're right and I think you're wrong.
