Maybe because you are only looking at it’s immediate neighbors. Sweden had nearly exactly the same population size and death rate as Michigan but Michigan had a strong and lengthy lockdown.

No it’s not. Southern baptists don’t hate gay people, they hate gayness and want to save you from eternal hellfire. Of course it’s asinine and backwards but it’s completely different than nazis and klansmen.

It’s easy for the choice to be clear when you are entirely missing the point. What are the consequences of using these newly offensive words? What if you used the word but had no idea it was offensive? And how do we police that in a world

What about all the instances where state dependence increased suffering though? What baffles me is that we continue to fall into the trap that there are only 2 ways to approach every problem.

But what are we defining newsworthy as? Your professor’s formula sounds like the formula for 24/7 news and clickbait. Shouldn’t something that is actually newsworthy be something that is highly impactful for a large amount of people?

If you double the isotonic solutions, don’t they become hypertonic? The instructions that came with my Nasopure say to use two packets for a hypertonic solution.

Try rinsing daily with a Nasopure. Has worked wonders on my allergies and keeps my nasal passages clear 100% of the time.

Rinsing my nasal passage daily with a salt water rinse has done wonders for my allergies. I use a little bottle and saline solution called Nasopure.

So if we were having a debate about net neutrality and we started talking about the telephone or cable company as an analogy, that would be bad faith? When people are so quick to yell “bad faith” or “whataboutism” it really highlights the f

Remember when they smeared Assange as a Russian asset because they published the DNC and Podesta emails? Kind of hard for them to back him now. What a tangled web we weave when first we practice to deceive.

by oxymoran 6y ago
The left wing media disavowed Assange and labeled him a Russian asset when Wikileaks published the DNC and Podesta emails. They painted themselves into a corner on this, so their best option is to ignore it at this point. Also, while I des

I had a similar issue with the acute HBP out of nowhere and constant headaches. My liver levels were also all out of whack. I never figure out what caused it but it did resolve after several weeks. My BP and liver are completely normal no

What I don’t understand is that if they are going to police opinions, they are acting as editors, not a platform. They should thus be held accountable for any improper editorial decisions that they make in the same way that a newspaper wou

Anybody that continues to use Facebook is complicit in the downfall of democracy. That goes for Twitter and 24/7 news channels as well. Get off that crap, it’s rotting out minds.

Yea you are right, purchasing software would present different challenges because you would have different types of users. My frame of reference was for companies that design their own in-house software but it still sucks. I work at a larg

Every piece of enterprise software I have used is frustratingly bad and cumbersome. I have determined that the problem is because enterprise software is not written by the end user, whereas say, a smartphone operating system is inherently

People have been critical of China for decades and deservedly so. The only thing that has changed is that the political landscape in the US has descended into madness. The CCP has already committed disgusting atrocities during the cultural

You think they will stop with Tibet? The CCP wants China to be the new world hegemony. They think that their illiberal system is the only way and they want to spread it to every corner of the world. War is not the answer because it would

Yea you are probably right. But it makes it so that the CCP can’t actively control the ISP directly. Perhaps people will hack together ground terminals or something? Where there is a will, there is a way. In any event, just standing up t

Break the great firewall. Show the Chinese citizens exactly what the CCP is doing and hope that they revolt. Starlink should have the power to do that very soon.

Yea war is a terrible idea. Even if we “won” it would come at great cost. The best strategy is to contain them and wait for the inevitable communist collapse. Also, breaking the great firewall would do wonders in encouraging Chinese citi

We have to recognize the problem before we can work up the courage. And unfortunately, most people don’t recognize the problem. Worse, there is a tendency for some people to smear you as a right wing Trump supporter when you criticize Chi

I don’t know why you would be surprised that you cannot randomly call people up to testify during the proceedings. You have to submit your witness lists months before a hearing.

I only feel locked in to Apple because I despise Google so much and the 2 Android phones I previously had were complete garbage. If there was a another viable option, I would go with it in a second.

Of course, that’s the whole point. It’s of no use to the CCP if they can’t control it.

No that’s just how totalitarian governments work. Stop being naive.

The rest of the world needs to wake up and realize that China is not messing around. There will be a long list of Hong Kong’s if we continue to look the other way to authoritarian regimes.

“Anarchists are simply people who believe human beings are capable of behaving in a reasonable fashion without having to be forced to.” My anarchist sympathies want this to be true but this is a demonstrably false fairy tale. Just look at

Ok but what is going to change? Is anybody going to be held accountable? Is Snowden going to be pardoned? If the answer is no to any/all of this, then this is just window dressing.
