Why do you draw the line there? And that means you're okay with things like torture of animals and bestiality?

There's absolutely nothing that needs to be interpreted here. The article - and even the specific sentence you quoted - make it clear that its discussing the response to a user's actions and not the actions themselves. I'm no

Unless you're locking these people up forever, giving them a timeout solves absolutely nothing. Evidence-based prevention and treatment are the clear answers. No one is claiming addiction isn't a problem. We just simple want to ac

That does not say what you're claiming it does. The article is very clearly talking about the response to Trump: > correct response should be "consistent with the rules that are applied to other users of its platform". Tha

The drugs used for microdosing are not considered to form physical dependence. Nor have I ever heard of anyone become addicted to psychedelics. Is there a reason your response hinges on addiction?

> It's quite obvious he broke no actual rules, but it's interesting that Facebook's oversight board is actually willing to say so. Where are you reading that? I see no reference to it in the linked article.

I felt very out of place in my college CS classes. I picked up programming my freshman year and switched to CS from my original major. I was completely green while so many other students - what felt like a majority - had been programming fo

How is that actually relevant though? Do your morals change when it comes to humans you cannot communicate with?

The problem is most people do not have a rational basis for the differences in the behaviors you outlined. The reasoning generally rests completely on logical fallacies.

One thing that I haven't seen mentioned yet is shelf-stability. Even if you love to cook, it's nice knowing you have a backup sitting in the pantry just in case you're feeling tired or don't have a chance to go shopping.

It's completely disingenuous to categorize statements like "the US tax code is too complex" and "Jews are starting forest fires with space lasers" both as just 'political opinions'.

This is an extremely uncharitable reply. Where did anyone try and equate the suffering of animals and humans? Accusing your opponents of anthropomorphizing because of concern about non-human suffering is a ridiculous response. The fact that

We have a mini pig that lives with us. I think the parent's comment is vastly underestimating pigs. They're very sweet, empathetic animals.

I hear this kind of reasoning often, but I don't believe anyone is willing to apply it outside of food. Yes, many non-human animals would eat you if given the opportunity. Some species of large cats might also kill you for amusement. D
