You’re being disingenuous. Just call them hypocrites, it’s okay. You don’t have to pretend you’re a libertarian to make that argument.

I'm being facetious in speculating how it would be a "psyop."

No one sees anything other than blue/black. So there are paid crisis actors out there lying about seeing other colors.

I’m incensed reading this article, early on. First, that Robin Williams anecdote. It’s absurd. If it’s even true, a macroeconomics class isn’t necessarily difficult nor do they always ask difficult questions. It’s more likely, “What happens

If most of my employees can’t understand the way someone speaks or writes, it’s likely that person will have problems communicating ideas within the organization. Also, by definition where? You’re just making this up, there isn’t an autho

This is yet more bullshit California politics, part of why I left. It’s the same thing as Californians eternally blaming the long-dead Ronald Reagan for the problem of visible homelessness in their state. Bring up that CA finally has plenty

A lot of these are generic enough that you could get a lot of people to admit they believe in them, especially with the right definitions of words. Even though the UFO/extraterrestrial stuff seems really kooky to me, there are plenty o

I would say they’re often no more interesting than anyone else. My sister-in-law supposedly believes Princess Diana was assassinated, which is included in one of these lists of popular conspiracy theories. She might have other similar belie

I also hold my child with my left hand as I am right-handed. Obviously, it allows me to do more since my dominant hand is free for more complex tasks, as stated in the article. I only thought about this recently because I had a 'test&#

I do as well, but part of this means depositors are going to lose some money (past FDIC insurance, if there is 'enough' of that).

Cities and states also have governments. Who do I talk to when more fundamental rights are violated? If my 1a or 2A rights are violated, my recourse is suing in court. And those are individual rights that were the literal first two rights

Unfortunately, I'm not allowed to simply emigrate. And on the whole, I do prefer the US, and it's not because the Federal govt has laws preventing Starbucks from "union busting" tactics. For the most part, I don't

I support this step in destroying Federal bureaucracy. Hoping these cases go somewhere.

> I can't see "US" and "Mexico" from space. You are speaking with an adult. These arguments do not work on me. I pay income tax to the US, not Mexico, and if I don't, the US throws me in a real prison cell.

What is your point? Wage theft occurs regardless of migrant status. Why are you asking me to be responsible for the tangential discussion, that I did not start, on migrant status? Or are you going to post this exact same question to everyon

Not trying to detract from your point, but the internet is still surprisingly unregulated, although I think we're at the early stages of seeing that change.

How is the US responsible for Mexicans raping other Mexicans? Is it our responsibility to stop all bad things from happening or just those that happen in Mexico? Should we have a police force on Mexican soil?

Same. As with all self-reported data, expected some lying shame-driven responses. I also found myself having a lot less time to read after having a child. I've only started again this year because I feel like doomscrolling in bed is no

I disagree with your first point mainly because this is more of a symptom of what Americans want, not necessarily some sort of virtuous result of the banking industry. I'd also argue that it doesn't "make our entire economy r

This sounds ridiculous because Google was never "under" Marissa Mayer. She wasn't the CEO, so ultimately it was up to someone else. And if anyone wants me to believe that someone other than the CEO was responsible for an acqu

Just to state the potentially obvious, there are fewer NFL games than MLB or NBA (by about an order of magnitude, 272 NFL games per year vs. ~2,400 MLB games and ~2,400 NBA games), so the supply of seats is far more limited.

You’re implying that everyone who doesn’t go to Harvard thinks of Harvard on the same level as a sports team RIVALRY, which is of course absurd. It’s more like someone whose allegiance to a team is unknown, saying he’s okay with NYC chargin
