There really is nothing more ironic than using a meme to disparage other people who share a certain idea (aka. a meme).

Ok, and I would argue that anyone who values the second topic over the first has their priorities seriously out of whack and needs to do some soul searching.

This is the entire point of the article - that inadequate testing can lead to inaccurate results. The point isn't that "the device is biased and therefore its makers are bad people", it's to highlight a clear-cut case w

How's this for an argument: hyper-fixating on the word "race" in this context completely derails productive conversations about the importance of testing medical devices on a diverse range of subjects and instead turns it int

Who exactly is brewing up anger here? The only people I see getting angry are the ones in these comments who are so easily triggered by the word "race".

You are heavily, heavily overreacting here. Take a breath.

> This isn't poor grammar, this is a syntactically broken sentence Absolute nonsense! Sure, "containing" is more precise in conveying the idea, but "surrounding" still results in a perfectly valid sentence tha

What is the point of shifting the focus here? Are you trying to justify Nazism?

I would disagree. The mark of truly profound writing is the ability to portray an idea in such a way that it forces the reader to question their pre-existing beliefs and potentially change their mind.

So many pretentious words strung together in this article and not a single one of them explaining exactly what the "need" is that he's referencing in the title "The West needs to grow up". It's one gigantic ex

Honestly, I think it says more about how distorted your worldview has become that your first instinct is to go hunting for some little factoid to use to confirm your pre-existing bias against " the mainstream media", no matter how

Yet another reason why requiring phone numbers for account creation/verification is an awful, user-hostile idea. I've always hated services that do this.

If this law is purely about the safety concerns raised by bystanders being within 8 feet, then why does it explicitly only apply to RECORDING within 8 feet? It does absolutely nothing to prevent bystanders from coming within 8 feet. It on

I'll give you a hint: the results would have been the same on any other day. Clearly you're only interested in having your opinions validated. I'm sorry that reality is so disappointing to you.

I just took a glance at Google News and I see multiple articles with headlines like "The last city in Luhansk has fallen to Russia. What does that mean for Ukraine?", "With latest capture, Russia edges closer to complete cont

You're missing the point. Reddit is not and never has banned subreddits purely for being conservative. That's a persecution fantasy that lives entirely in your head.

Tell that to /r/conservative where I am banned from for even attempting to present an alternate viewpoint. Dissent is literally forbidden by the subreddit's rules.

Are you kidding me? This is what qualifies as being "informed" to you? The rantings of some random podcast host who did a weekend of "research" on a topic he obviously knows nothing about? I watched that whole video a

That's part of the problem itself. In most cases there ARE no communications about why an account was terminated, and it's impossible to get any unless you have enough influence to cause a messy public incident on Twitter.

Is he really though? You say this as if the twitter acquisition is over and done, and Free Speech has been saved by Musk doing......what exactly? So far we have so few details about what his plans for the platform are (or if he even has a

I came here to make this exact same comment, but I'm not surprised someone else beat me to it! Maybe Papers Please and Undertale would make better examples.

I was wondering the same thing. Maybe I haven't been paying close enough attention to sales numbers, but I can't really recall ever hearing anyone refer to Odyssey as anything other than a success.

You have a very warped definition of the word "bully".

I suppose you could call them weapons of environmental destruction.

You sure are making a lot of assumptions about me. I'm not even sure what the problem you're referring to here is. I was just impressed by what a concise, convincing argument in favor of masks you inadvertently made!
