Where do all your anti-free-speechers get your identically wrong talking points? Lying on Twitter or to a newspaper ISN'T FRAUD. And if you used your half-assed definitions to write laws, you could throw authors at The Onion in jail fo

Frustrating for sure, but you're comparing access to limitless knowledge and literally life transforming technologies that people even a few decades ago would have sold their soul for... to a home product that I think Google would re

> You are an example of the problem. So, I would be on your arrest and prosecution list. What a surprise. And I guess highway designers who choose to make the speed limit 65 mph instead of 3 mph also need to go to jail, right? After all,

And this is fraud... how? Because a guy made up fake stories and gave them to a newspaper for free? Or because he posted untrue things on Twitter? I guess the folks at The Onion better expect police knocking at their door any day now. They

I can't believe how unbelievably little people like you know about law and free speech. Are you the one seriously arguing that it's illegal to lie on Twitter? Or to lie a newspaper? Of course faking a document is perfectly legal

Do you not realize how unhinged what you're saying is? "Coke and Pepsi are poisoning whole generations"? So you want to put business people in prison because they supply customers with products that they genuinely enjoy? I en

This is the most intuitive explanation by far. I'd even say 1 million doors to really drive the point home. You choose a door with only 1 in a million odds of it being the door with a prize. Monty Hall know where the prize is and will

In my entire life I've only ever felt screwed over by two--and only two--entities: Comcast and private universities. Not Apple, not Google, not Facebook, not Amazon, not banks, not credit card companies, not even my cell carrier. On th

Honestly, the premise seems exactly backward to me. I remember taking a selfie of myself on two different phones to compare their forward-facing cameras. The image quality on both was roughly the same, but one had subtle skin smoothing and

Is this some sick joke? Do you really not see how arson and explosives are absolutely comparable crimes? The arson which accompanied looting in Philadelphia caused a massive fire in downtown Philly which could have easily killed people. You

Under normal circumstances, society gets pretty angry at arsonists irrespective of their political beliefs. Do you also feel bad for the guy who mailed CNN pipe bombs?

And if you don't get your way, what's next? Shutting off ICE employee's water, electricity, and telephone service? And why not kick them out of their apartments too since sheltering an ICE officer helps enable them.

I guess when they start administering ideological purity tests at the bagel shop, I'll know who to thank. After all, providing any type of sustenance or service to a person with the wrong political beliefs helps enable their wrong-ness

Providing standard, regular service to anyone willing to pay for it is almost always the "default" non-political way of doing business. Do you want an ideological purity test to buy a bagel or a car? Refusing to provide a service

So you’re just trolling, is that right? You’re claiming that you’re deeply upset about a vague Trump tweet and need it to be banned to protect your innocent mind, but you’re openly advocating literal random violence. Ok, comrade.

As I say elsewhere, I could just as easily use your empty standard to ban tweets saying “A riot is the language of the unheard.” This quote sympathetically explains rioting as a consequence of oppression—and it’s a quote I largely agree wit

I share the exact same sentiment as you, but I don't know if I'm being fair to how ugly a unmoderated forum can be. For example, spamming advertisements in comment sections is completely legal speech. So would be typing in gibberi

Well, it was a building Povey ordinarily had a right to be in until protestors illegally chained all external doors shut. So, calling it "breaking in" is a sorta backward way to think about it, in my opinion. His right to be in th

I think this piece is a great example of smug, establishment romanticism which grossly overvalues form over function. A political cartoon hasn't made me laugh, think deeply, or--most importantly--change my worldview in years. It's

I guess I'm considered a millennial, but messages like this sound like misconceived pandering. Firstly, I don't think any generation necessarily "owes" anything to future generations. But, even if we accept the premise,
