Yes it's common that a lot of "little details" are left out. Yes it does make things harder. No it's not a big enough problem that you need to be disheartened. You could even see it as an opportunity to raise the bar and

One of the big incel complaints is that the least attractive women don't want the least attractive men. If that is indeed true there is none for them to settle for.

What do you want them to do? Better themselves - Are they not already trying? Accept they were born unattractive - then what, suicide?

Microsoft hasn't gotten better. But other companies are now even worse. People used to be scared Microsoft would lock our devices down so we could only run approved software. Guess what Apple and to a lesser extent Google did that. Mic

That article is heavy on how "the other" is talking about this, but light on facts about the situation on the ground. Here is an article about the farm attacks https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a

I think people are rationally not stepping in, as those who do step in don't get recognition. They do however risk getting a lot of flak for having been insensitive or whatever.

Replying to you since this is the top response but aimed at y'all really. At the risk of stating the obvious. Gut bacteria are bacteria... in the gut. Like if you tell me they affect the absorption of nutrients - I can see that. Maybe

All the big sites face government pressure to censor. In addition anyone inside these companies that would support free speech has to walk on eggshells not to be fired for creating an unsafe environment - again the government's hand t

You understated 2. Its more correctly described as hatred. You inverted 3. I said majority of white people support Trump, not majority of Trump supporters are white. Finally you are overstating my conclusion. Here I refer to to the majorit

I agree. But it means the majority of Y are bad and should be punished. Things don't look too bright for Y on average.

I see two propositions 1. Trump supporters are fascist. 2. Fascists should be sabotaged at every turn. If we link this up with the fact that the majority of white Americans are Trump supporters, it's hard to escape the conclusion that

You can save that same amount by buying stock yourself (subject to availability in your account, I guess some retirement accounts offer only funds)

It all depends on the goal right? In this case it seems the goal was to harm the company because they didn't pay ransom. Not to perform long term espionage.

Here is a crazy thought I had. If you're poor and save a bit money you get less aid. So saving is meaningless. You are stuck in a feedback loop. But if you buy lottery tickets as a way of "savings", you either lose and get fu

I think you all are missing a key element of the story. Dave was a cool dude. People liked him. He didn't take shit, but he didn't abuse his leverage or go on power trips. And that's part of why he got away with things. Also

Maybe he did it maybe he didn't. I'm leaning towards he did it. But it's worth keeping in mind that his punishment would have been less severe than the time he has spent in that embassy. I think that proves that he was scared
