   The allies raped far more women than the axis. I'd be very appreciative if you could link to a source for this claim.

   In ww2, you can objectively say that pure evil won and that pure evil lost. If both sides are equally evil in your view, would you say you are indifferent to which side ended up winning WWII? Is it a mistake on my part to assume you would

   I've never really understood the line of reasoning that compares one country's possible past misdeeds with another country's possible present misdeeds. I don't think a nation exists with a spotless historical record, the

   Would you mind explaining the significance of this to me? What does properly redacted mean as opposed to drawing black rectangles over the content? Am I correct in assuming that if done improperly the content underneath can be reconstructed

   I don't find pre-employment drug testing terribly problematic, although I would be fine seeing it discontinued in most settings. While I don't use drugs myself I don't have any ethical problems with drug use and I'm freq

   Can you elaborate on the case of Westinghouse? That sounds interesting.

   I’ve read a number of articles about the prospect of an Apple car but most have still left me with more questions than answers. My main questions regarding an Apple car are the following: 1. Apple seems reluctant to chase market share at th

    I would describe myself as liberal, even by the already relatively liberal standards of coastal California, but I'm not sure incoherence and hypocrisy are things only the Republican party is guilty of. I see many of the same aspects of

    I don't think that the parent's comment regarding the possibility of Trump being right on this issue necessarily implies their overall support of him. I doubt there are many politician who's stances you agree with 100% of the

    I'm curious why you would label the transfer from the Chinese poor to the American poor as a net loss morally? Is the transfer from the American poor to the Chinese poor also morally suspect? I'm not trying to be argumentative, ju

    Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe I've read that Foxconn's suicide rates are actually lower than the rates of American college students. I understand that may not be a perfect comparison since college suicide rates tend t

    This is obviously extremely off topic but I figure I may as well ask here by the off chance that someone from Dropbox or with contacts there could tell me which foundry was responsible for the chrome panda statue? From the few pics I'v

    I would be wary in making assumptions about a stranger's background and what conditions they may or may not have grown up under prior to immigrating to the US. I can assure you I am more than familiar with the receiving end of both Ame

    Thanks for the kind words and believe me when I say how disappointed I feel knowing that there are many people like you who would like to work at SpaceX that aren’t afforded the opportunity simply because of where you happened to be born. I

    It was late, I was very tired and perhaps I didn't express my views as well as I should have. I tried to make it very clear that I in fact didn't find the criticisms of the chants troubling, and that in some ways I could even unde

    I won't propose to speak on behalf of others but in my case whenever I feel a sense of pride or accomplishment for something I have done, whether that be here at work or in my personal life, I certainly try and take a moment to acknowl

    I suppose the ultimate compliment that can be payed to the employees at SpaceX is when the successful launch of a rocket, the successful delivery to orbit of its payload, and the subsequent successful landing of it's first stage on a r

    I wouldn't say it glorifies the state above all else but I would point out that even in a private company such as SpaceX the employees tend to be aware of the role government plays within the realm of space exploration. I choose to vie

    I'm pretty sure Elon considers himself thoroughly American at this point. You may find this surprising but there are in fact many foreign born employees working at SpaceX. Some of us even have accents and unusual names to go along with

    The idea that a group of SpaceX employees chanting "USA", not "Europe Sucks" or "Death to Russia", or some other chant that specifically calls out and demeans another group, but simply USA-USA-USA, is somehow a

    This isn't my area of expertise and what you've said certainly makes sense, however from my understanding ship-to-ship, or in this case ship-to-barge, boardings at sea aren't without their own inherent risks. It could be that

    I too find it hard to see how so many have conflated chanting for a group, in this case the USA, as being equivalent to actively admonishing another group. The employees at SpaceX aren't burning the flags of foreign countries or otherw

    Generally SpaceX only employs "US Persons" due to ITAR restrictions. US Persons are either US Citizens, doesn't matter whether native born or naturalized, and US Permanent Residents, often referred to as Green Card holders. T

    As someone who works here and doesn't join in the chants but works closely with and respects many of the people that do, I find your description of them as "douchebags" to be rather uncalled for. You are certainly free to dis
