What if the "privilege" you think you see is actually a difference in average ability or preferences between groups of people that are in fact different from each other? Affirmative action does not help the groups it is directed t

What would people think if the genders were reversed and this institution was discriminating against women and only helping men? Women have a far larger presence in other fields like biology and education, but you don't see new organiz

I'm very curious about how the participants other income will change. Income is the best proxy we have for productivity, so if their other income changes much then we might be able to make some interesting observations about their work

I wonder if there is any truth to the story about Zuckerberg telling Merkel that Facebook would censor anti-immigration posts in Germany. http://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2015-09-26/merkel-con...

Yes, according to the allegations implied in the letter. If Facebook penalizes topics which don't agree with Facebook's bias - that certainly would be preventing some of their users from expressing what matters to them. I don&#x27

Because Facebook presents itself to users as a way to share and express what matters to them . Not as a way to share and express what matters to them so long as it agrees with Facebook's censors.

I've had success taking sleep even further. It seems that humans are polyphasic sleepers, just like most other mammals. I've found that I get tired after lunch, and benefit greatly from a 30-60 minute nap. The trick to getting the

Were they better off in these homes which they choose to move to, or do you think they were better off where they came from? Discrimination is terrible but I don't see how it would have forced them to move next door to someone who oppr

So you're okay with reducing home values by placing high-density housing anywhere (and the corresponding violent crime risks), but not with reducing home values by placing industrial facilities anywhere (along with their corresponding

Would you also permit hazardous chemical refineries to be built alongside or within residential communities? Are there any freedoms of self-government that you would like to see preserved?

I believe that segregating history for blacks into a single month is also a form of racism. A single month implies that there is ~1/12th as much history.

Implying that one race cannot do what other races can is racist.

Blacks can't get away from the various hells of the world I believe this is known as the racism of lowered expectations.
