So you lied to a bunch of people? While enticing them to participate in bad behaviour? I don't get the joke

I don't agree. I do think certain schools of moralistic thought fall down this path. But it's not mendatory. If we relax our need for dichotomy, while encouraging contemplation this is less of a problem.

I thought I was pretty reserved. While I believe this is enslavement, I explicitly talked about the moral ambivalencey of it when it comes to animals. I didn't advocate a black and white approach of, using animals=evil. I agree with mo

Isn't that just whataboutism? Does one wrong thing makes another wrong thing ok?

Am I the only one who finds this enslaving of living things troublesome? I mean livestock enslavement is problematic, but the necessity for food could 'morally compensate' for it. Plus originally these animals were part of the fa

I can't say that I'm surprised, but I really appreciate your comment. This sort of "inside information" is immensely valuable for society, especially in a world consumed with PR. Whenever people talk about making the FDA

They also pushed a culture of deception and exaggeration. I dunno if iPhones are worth making this behavior normal and even worshipped. Trump=Elon=Jobs They are all successful bullies and liars. If these are our role models...

I believe most people will agree with you. But the people funding these are not most people. They are a tiny minority of human beings. They precieve left leaning government to be an existential threat. Usually because of individualistic mon

Problem is Twitter is heavily manipulated by actors with the money. Journalists weakened position as laborers created a generation of journalists without real mentorship. This in turn made us lose knowledge of consequences and thus ethics.

You are right, Of course I exggarated. But for a significant chunk of people I school is something you don't like. It's significant enough to be a cultural trope[0]. This makes it an easy target, and a useful hook to get support f

I agree. And it's such an easy target. Everybody hate schools. But the fact of the matter is that public schools were one of the prominent factors in reducing poverty around the world. As in any institution, it may calcify and be corru

Yes, and since the eighties the American Left embraced neoliberalism whole heatedly. Then leaned into progressiveness inorder to differentiate itself. So yeah, now we have flavors of neoliberalism.

Taking a decision to not change anything when everything has changed is not a passive act.

What exactly is the author trying to explain? If he tries to explain why these holy wars happen, his explanation is very lacking. He doesn't seems to consider the psychology and emotions of the human participants. It's rather

Calling deception "PR speak" doesn't make it not deception.

What kind of a journalist publish a story without corraborating it? Facebook is scum. But on the flip side these so called journalists are a sham.

False positive matter. Being arrested for something you didn't do is horrific and life changing. The human in the loop is human. We unconsciouly tend to trust machines as objective and accurate. This is not as simple as you make it to

Maybe that's his point? That he assumes this is unusuable unless he has extreme indication otherwise. Also, he said this technology, not any technology.

Dismissal of what? I'm not saying symbian was a better os. I'm saying sometimes innovation and commercial success are not indicators of better solutions. And sometimes moving fast and breaking/distrupting things, is not a goo

They innovated away privacy and security by relying on the human poor ability of impulse control and hardship with delayed gratification. Basically they made everything shiny and addictive. Is that really innovative? Perhaps 'bad'

It takes one bad application of such technology to ruin a person's life. We can't have a mindless algorithm take or assist decisions that can effect a person's life without extreme caution. Not because people who make these

Private schools are a bane to society. They mainly provide the well endowed separation from the less endowed, forming they're own clique which eventually creates a class system. Not to mention that they deplete the public system from t

Yeah well, that's maybe an over active imagination. The best healthcare systems in the world (with respect to quality, and quantity of people getting it) are public health systems. So I dunno, I'd rather have the (functioning de

Kinda funny that it's ok for zoom to become a platform for US to monitor it's own civilians but then complain that it's cooperating with Chinese law. Seems to me senator wants zoom to pick sides alright, but it has nothing to

I appreciate this thoughtful response! My words might not have been nuanced enough. The obvious problem I see with blackface, is the inherent condescendence and mockery in it. When you say someone is stupid and lazy, it's pretty clear

I get this sentiment. I also think that the problem is misrepresentation then, and not authorship.
