This is getting very hypothetical here, but I'll be glad to indulge your question. I'm unsure at this stage in my life whether I'll ever have the opportunity to have children of my own, but I would certainly like to. As I&#x2

Having absurd amounts of money certainly doesn't make bias go away, but it definitely makes such bias more bearable. I've been subject to numerous indignities due to "shopping while black", I've also gone hungry and

I'm in agreement that there isn't a credible movement to eliminate white people, but I still feel that if companies, and social media sites in particular, are going to have guidelines around acceptable speech on their platforms, t

While I find statements like "kill all whites" to be hateful and unproductive, I'm certainly in agreement that such statements don't pose the same threat to whites as white supremacists ideologies pose to non-whites, lar

As a non-white person who is wholly unsympathetic to the ideas espoused by white supremacists, partly out of reasons of self preservation, making statements such as "kill all whites" doesn't seem like a particularly good meth

Both you and the user notfromhere seem to be interpreting the GP post as suggesting the solution is large public housing projects, it's possible my reading comprehension is really off today but I see no such suggestion. To me the GP

Name aside, which just seems very paternalistic, based on the article you linked I can't see anything particularly objectionable about the third proposal. I would've definitely preferred to live in that kind of sanctioned open air

This is certainly a possibility, but I would assume someone with the resources to pull this off is smart enough to realize that it would quickly be discovered if the whole thing is bs, especially as the story involves some of the US's

I’m writing this on my phone while on break so I can’t get as detailed as I’d like but I just wanted to express agreement with your point regarding the effects of low level jobs being outsourced to contractors. I don’t want to get too speci

Genuine question for someone with a better understanding of psychology, or the kind of propaganda employed by authoritarian regimes, but what purpose does this serve? I can't imagine you can actually convince someone to suddenly like t

You're certainly entitled to your opinion, and I don't mean for this to be too uncharitable to your point of view, but I do find it fairly presumptuous to assume the poster you're responding to doesn't understand what ra

This is a pretty great explanation for me, your last point is something I hadn't considered before and definitely gives me a lot to think about. I wish I was able to more meaningfully engage with you and the other posters here but I fe

I appreciate both you and projektir taking the time to respond to me, everything you've said makes a lot of sense but I'm still left with some additional questions. It's way past my bedtime and I don't think I can articu

The things you've said certainly make sense but I feel like much of that also applies to political ideology. It certainly seems to me like much of that ideology is at least partly subject to location and culture. In particular I feel t

I'm not the poster you're responding to, and I like to think I have a reasonably good understanding of why modern societies don't discriminate on characteristics which a person can't change, and while I personally find i

I don't own an iPhone X but I'm fairly certainly there are X owners who don't care about using the device as a signaling mechanism.

I'm not asking this to be snarky, but for anyone who might be privy to these discussions, is there constant and vigorous debate within Google about the ethics of targeted advertising, media/tech consolidation, and other ethically

I'm somewhat weary of the notion that all whites, and especially that all males, are somehow at the top of the pyramid.

I think it wise to not automatically conflate laziness or the lack of desire to compete with non-males with unemployment or underemployment.

As magnificent as the Apollo program was, and the Saturn V in particular, it was an incredibly expensive and complex launch system, unsustainably so. Additionally, even if you did want to recreate a Saturn V, the designs themselves aren&#x2

Those are all good points, and I don't have much to rebut. I guess the only thing I still take issue with is the notion that so much can be inferred not just from which topics people comment on but which ones they don't. Especiall
