Then maybe people should ask why democracy is so fragile.

You didn't dig up some undisclosed connection between the author and the Chinese communist party, or other business interests that may taint their reporting. You are only suspicious because of their ethnicity. And relax, as Avenue Q st

Are you f-ing kidding me? Until 90%+ of FB users start dropping dead because of lung cancer then that statement is complete garbage. EDIT: a lot of people are taking my statement as meaning not to criticize Facebook. That is not it at all!

Then you neglected to include the ethnicities/nationalities of the photographer, contributing authors, and editorial staff of the NYTimes. Wouldn't that be similarly useful context?

So any positive things said about China from a Chinese American should be discounted?

That's optimistic. We'll probably try to eat them.

No one doubts the EU's power, but they doubt its stability and unity. With the surge of right wing nationalist governments in Europe it's a fair concern.

Tinfoil hat: as others have already noted, Google and FB have had this feature for awhile (e.g., Google Takeout) but the media likes to hype up Apple vs. GoogFace as GoogFace are direct competitors of traditional media and have been respons

Amazing the power of mainstream media. How quickly the villain changes from China to Russia, and now back to China.

It's not a surprise that he was avoiding the communists. As the article states, his family was wealthy.

Seriously. Headlines like this really infuriate me because it lends credence to the cry of "fake news!" The article is well aware of this limitation and explicitly mentions it, thereby giving it cover. However, the headline has gr

Unless you let that alcoholic guard two warehouses, and allow him to have a few bottles from one of them. In that case, he'd be stupid to take from the one where's he not suppose to.

I feel like people are blaming the tech companies for their own flaws. As Homer Simpson once said: "It's easy to blame ourselves, but it's even easier to blame Flanders." The targeted ads and (fake or not) news are not w

I'm not saying you and others shouldn't be politically involved. I'm not even saying companies shouldn't contribute to political causes. I'm just saying they shouldn't encourage their workers to do so in the wo

Not sure how the prostitution bust relates to politics? Pretty sure liberals and conservatives are equally pervs. The latter just tends to be more oppressed about it.

Absolutely. I completely disagree with the whole "bring your whole self to work". No! Bring your professional self to work. The counter-argument is that the causes relate to discrimination in the workforce. I.e., BLM needs to be s

You don't have to marry a Polish person. What if you participated in more Polish cultural events? Meet some local Poles, take some Polish language classes. It feels like there are plenty of low-barrier things that you could do to help

My sympathies to the author. Clearly the article comes from a place of grief. That said, if she wanted to get closer to her culture it shouldn't be that difficult. What about her grandparents? Does she have any Korean friends? What if

IIRC, they own one of the few online dating sites that actually generates a profit: match.com. All of their other properties, particularly Tinder and OkCupid, are basically meant to get younger people hooked so that they will eventually con

Uber and Lyft actually offered to support a $100M bribe-er, I mean, "hardship" fund to support underwater individual (i.e., not those taxi business that own multiple medallions) medallion owners, but the city refused. Which makes

I like the last line: > And what about the future of UT Arlington’s latest wunderkind, Ewin Tang? “I haven’t come up with anything that is really ingenious yet,” he says. Be patient; he’s only 12. It only took 6 years. Not bad at all!
