We have engineered GMO food so why not engineered news media? Free speech is really a mechanism to protect advertisers. As I feel myself as a sort of penned livestock that gets to choose between competing capitalists, all I can say is I&#x2

I posted this before: Clearly the Cambodian and Indochina people went through an awful period. Pol Pot did extreme things as a leader but the alternative of leaving Lon Nol in power who had people starving was not good either. Whether commu

The U.S. has been in perpetual war for over a decade, the media is part of that war. While advantaged, educated U.S. citizens want to make believe in a free Western press, invented narratives like Jessica Lynch rescue, staged Saddam Hussein

Churchill is quoted as saying the U.S. wanted the Soviets out of the war. At the Tehran Conference in Nov 1943 and at the Yalta Conference in Feb 1945, Joseph Stalin had agreed to declare war on Japan three months after Germany would be def

A bigger obfuscation is the cause of WWII. We are given the history of WWI, geopolitical alliances, assassination of Archduke Ferdinand, harsh Treaty at Versailles, collapse of German currency, WWII continuation of WWI, failure of Chamberla

The imminent Soviet invasion of Manchuria surely played a role in the U.S. decision to use the atomic bomb, end the war quickly to end the prospect of post war Soviet occupation of Japanese held territory.

A lot of the fascist collaborator countries, including Baltic states and Ukraine, are still proud of their support of fascism. The West turns a blind eye to this as its promotion of democracy is a political tool, which is a farce considerin

You don't have to be a centenarian to have fought in WWII. Plenty of them around. Stalin killing fascists was a good thing. You are retelling a good story but the West, always working on its narrative, does not tell the truth. And Japa

It is called hypocrisy. These debates are not real, they are planned and can be shut off like a spigot.

Teekert gave a link to back up what they said, unlike you with your almost anonymous account and smarmy attitude. Ukraine just substituted one oligarchy for another but the current one has Western support ( IMF debt ). I agree with the perc

I'm suspicious that some people complain about dated technology and want something fresh not because the dated tech is obsolete or crippled but because they want to be an expert on new tech, starting from a level playing field and not

A lot of downsides to this. High maintenance cost, conditioning children to live in a militarized environment, more bureaucratic overhead for management and administrative decisions (the administrative officials may see this as job security

Your comment reminds me of a book, "Welfare, Ethnicity and Altruism: New Data and Evolutionary Theory". The book looks for empirical evidence for the theory of ethnic nepotism and kin altruism. I don't think I agree with all

A difference of kind is evident when people say racism is the same whether referring to racial prejudice by a Black US person or White US person. People are using a 100 year old dictionary definition to say racism is just racial prejudice.

I wouldn't look to 1933 white people to define racism. Yes, the Merriam-Webster definition stinks. Go with the US Civil Rights Commission's definition. They are more researched and sensitive to the issue. Here is the Civil Rights

Oppress is a synonym for subordinate as used by the US Civil Rights Commission. So why don't you people calling me a troll use the word oppress for your white condition instead of pulling out magical meanings for racism.

Why are you not seeing the word "subordinates" in the US Civil Rights Commission definition of racism. People are subordinated when the law fails to protect them. The law can fail to protect you due to corruption, bad management,

Focus solely on individual behavior when addressing racism will only cause institutional racism to be hidden in society. Statistics will show what institutional bias exist and then legal interventions done where required. Maybe the U.S. is
