There is a plausible argument that ceasefires and endless international community meddling make wars worse, not better, because they drag on as open sores for years instead of being resolved one way or the other. Interesting to see some dat

It's so generous of you to acknowledge how both sides are wrong: Americans are wrong to want to live the way they do, while Europeans are wrong to not realize how severely deluded, wasteful, and out of touch with humanity Americans are

"Thoughts from an office full of hoodie-wearing white guys" was probably a super-bad way of stating the article's subheading, then. If it's perfectly fine that the office is full of hoodie-wearing white guys, then why ma

It sure is odd how these evil tools of the Man are never identified and flushed out by the noble, gentle, peaceful protesters before they start committing arson and shooting cops. Nobody noticed that these agents provocateurs were carryin

They're highly relevant given that they're how huge numbers of people access the Internet. Would a socialist system have produced smartphones? Also, if by "baggage" you mean "basic knowledge of 20th century history&

It is pretty crowded, actually. We've had satellites literally colliding with each other before. Filling it up with chunks of asteroid isn't the best use of limited room, especially when space farther away is genuinely empty and

Really, the nerve of us crazy Americans, wanting to be able to live and work in different places depending on what we felt was best for our families. What were we thinking?

Space is big. I mean, really big. The orbits that are most useful for our current-day satellites are crowded, of course, but you could stash your asteroid booty anywhere you like. Putting it in orbit around the Moon might not be a bad move.

Putting aside your odd belief that the USSR would have built international fiber-optic lines, last-mile broadband, and iPhones, it's neat how as soon as it's needed for the socialist argument all of a sudden the military is a forc

How can anyone "prove that no rape occurred"? It's impossible to prove a negative. All we can do is notice that no rape seems to have happened at that fraternity, none of the alleged victim's statements can be backed up

The Dakota Pipeline protesters were actually shooting at cops , and committed millions of dollars worth of arson.

I said "thin on the ground," not "nonexistent." There are a few people who genuinely want real inclusion and work for it, and they're heroes. But they aren't calling the shots.
