This is great, ty. I'm going to add this to my collection of 'words for when'. There are so many strange tricks that people pull on each other that are hard to concisely describe.

I'm surprised they have to resort to this. I thought they already had backdoors into our digital private lives.

Google dumbs everything down because they think everyone is dumb. I have learned to avoid their documentation and attempts to teach the populace.

I just took it. 85% conservative it says. But the fact is I am more like 85% liberal. Also, it's a little bit warped because some of the questions would evoke a different emotion than disgust, but you are required to categorize it a

Your reductio-ad-absurdum assumption is that because some people don't want to have children - no one else will either. But the fact remains, there are people who genuinely want to and those who don't. It should be personal choi

Some people don't want to have children - this will of course lead to the entire human race shrivelling up into a crisp and going extinct! Reductio-ad-absurdum for the Lose!

I would draw the line at "really want to". An argument could be made that only rich people should have children and that would be fascist in the other direction.

The first few times I casually mentioned I had never been interested in having kids, the reactions were unreasonably vitriolic: "Well, you aren't a good person and should stay away from them then!!" and "You look like
