It's a good point, but this isn't new info. Every RPG rulebook I've ever read has a preface or afterword where they say something to the effect of "These rules aren't set in stone, this is your game! If a roll will

There are already hotels for the homeless which provide cramped and spartan accommodations. They're called "homeless shelters", and generally speaking they don't solve any of the problems the article discussed. People n

Oh yes, we must defend the UK from the savage barbarian nations which border on every side, just waiting for a false move so they can stage a full-on invasion!

If you tweet to your enemy "I'm gonna use my orbital laser to incinerate you from space, so that you're wiped clean off the map!" Your enemy will not be actually, literally scared. Because your threat is obviously imag

The riots occurred after the cops murdered an unarmed black man. But why even try to argue about the causality? The fact is people are alienated from society, and consequently give no fucks about society's rules or expectations. If y

Riots like these happen because people feel that society is fundamentally hostile to them - that it is trying to kill them. And so it makes perfect sense to attack society in general. Cops, shops, news vans...whatever. People fight back

This is absurd. It sounds like the kind of thing you'd hear from Stalin, or something. The author is claiming that fiction should only celebrate the glorious future we are surely destined for, and never promote ideas which might insp

"When one condemns a group for the actions of a few -- i'll never believe that to be correct." Racism in America is not an act , it's a caste system . It's not something you do, it's a form of social struc

You're right, there are a few cops out there who out bad behavior. They are punished, demoted, fired, and even confined to insane asylums by the cops they "betrayed". http://www.nytimes.com/2012/03/

Being a cop is legitimately dangerous Not really, no. It's just not that dangerous. We imagine it must be dangerous, and so do cops themselves. But you're a lot more likely to be killed as a garbage collector or airline pilot

"privacy must be better and stronger than what institutions like NSA can intrude. And this, I fear, will be an ongoing war. Cryptography cannot solve the issue for obvious reasons" Really? It's so obvious that cryptography c

Violence simulations are easier to /fake/ than social simulations because few of us have routine experience with violence in our daily lives. We have little to compare the simulation against, so even though it's clunky, the

You do not have a moral or legal right to not be around poor people. The public areas near your home are not yours, and it's not reasonable for you to expect control over who is and is not welcome there. Particularly if, as you say,

You are implying that homelessness is a calculated choice, and that if it becomes unpleasant enough, an individual will decide to stop being homeless. This is absurd because it fails to recognize that homelessness is not a choice, it is the
