That's not a centrist position. That's a position solidly entrenched in favour of right of association over other rights.

I generally agree with that culture is getting generalized, but I despise the trend of diluting terms to associate them with your enemies. Using colonialism and genocide just to exaggerate their badness is just like how "nazi" has

I feel the opposite though. Anonymity is key, especially if you're not well protected. You can be the nicest guy in the world, but if you ever step out of line once and the wrong person decides that you're his target today, there

I'm generally pro lockdown, but your argument there is the literal think of the children argument. It's bad enough to make me want to flip on that position.

English is already the de facto auxiliary language of the world. The point of a language, above all others, and especially so for governing a union of countries, should be maximising the ease of communication.

This sounds like "other side politics bad", more than anything else. Reddit's top subs are basically a firehose of propaganda whenever politics are concerned. They've been polluting public discourse for some time, it

If one develops a rhetorical superweapon, they should expect it to be used against them eventually. It's hard to feel any sympathy when that chicken comes home to roost.

Which is also the primal instinct that allows for tribalism, which is really important when the other tribe is competing for a scarce resource. Humans are social creatures, but not social with the entire world.

It's flat out terrible. Also a fantastic example of how "equity" is often just code for dragging everyone down to the lowest point. They claim that this is elevating those lower on the rung, but rather, this is doing everyone

The big mistake you're making is that legalising it also magically brings all the infrastructure to neuter the cartels.

Good. If we can have more even distribution of that, then it'll hopefully enable bipartisan pushback. Or it'll just get worse and even more partisan, but that's the current trajectory anyway.

Not quite. The main issue here is the keyboard width and what it does to the angle of your mouse hand. Use of the mouse at angles too far from the forward axis of the body may result in shoulder issues down the line (At least that's wh

So, looking at Riot's anticheat for Valorant, they're generally considered to do a good job. Similarly for CSGO, FaceIT exists, and from what I've seen, is considered a good, low-cheater environment. The issue with CSGO was n
