Well, perhaps, but how is that relevant? This story is about specifically targeting election fraud protesters, not drug dealers, etc.

Well yeah, white supremacists are violent racist. People protesting against election fraud, aren't. If your idea of stability is the opression of the unprivelidge, then you are part of the problem. This is exactly why corrupt governmen

Obama getting the prize wrongfully doesn't make trump more or less suitable. As an Israeli, I tell you, this peace deal is a joke. We've had relations with the UAE for decades, they were never hostile to Israel. It was nothing mor

I grew up middle class, still am (although middle class has almost vanished), and hope to remain middle class. Infact, my moral compass says striving to be rich is bad. I consider what is now considered innovation and entrepreneurism, ove

Musk actively endorsed a personality cult around him myself as part of his PR. Maybe if he hadn't done that he'd get different kind of coverage.

I don't get the conception that the top problem our world have is people being judged about what they said. And that lynch justice is the greatest bane we face. Don't get me wrong, it's a thing I highly dislike. But it'

"a problem" What makes it a problem? It's a choice. We value existing quality of life more than quantity of life. Who says that's a problem? Who said less new people is a problem?

Freedom became an empty word once US turned it to plastic. People always lose some freedom in any social interaction. If you treat any such compromise as "no freedom" than you'll be left with no "freedom". This whol

Math is a language for modelling things. It can be intrinsically correct, as in consistent, but that doesn't say anything about the model's actually validity. Every choice we make is a moral choice. Once we're done modelling

What a weird premise... Where exactly are these chilling effects? most social networks devolve quite rapidly to a slur party where people say stuff they would never say to actual people IRL.
