I would very much love to learn about the educated viewpoints you mentioned here. What are the new facts that make people feel like Orwell is outdated? I definitely do not have great sources of information for life inside China. I am just

None of these things are new things. They're things the west largely has evolved past. "reeducation camps" are not an alternative to war. They're slow burn racial suppression and replacement, and used to enforce subser

Isn't this just the same as saying bad code acts badly though? People can, and have written bad websites using every technology. I can think of plenty of badly written, hard to use MVC websites from my past. It should come as no surpr

Which of the two is better? trapping in corporate. Trapping in corporate grants economic independence. Which means, depending on the family situation, it may be better for the children... it means the woman has the ability to run away if s

Labor constrained vs capital constrained is a slight simplification that implies that all other things being equal, availability of capital and labor are the two things that will stop a business from growing without limit. With that in mind

Correct, unfortunately, this is only for federal loans. I'm advocating that this program should be expanded to also apply to private loans, since those are also not dischargable by bankruptcy.

Yeah, I mean, that I expected. What I wasn't expecting, and still cannot wrap my head around, is how thoroughly ingrained the cultural avoidance is to learning about anything in that intellectual space. I would have expected that upon
