This seems like an ill-advised game to start playing. Why stop at women? Shouldn't other underrepresented groups be legally entitled to board seats too? I'm definitely not saying there aren't qualified women or people from ot

I agree it's not censorship in the First Amendment sense, but as a large corporation approaches monopoly status I think we should be less tolerant of "curation", even if we happen to agree with it in specific cases.

Sam Harris is a good one on the left. Joe Rogan is fairly neutral but has a lot of interesting guests from both sides on.

Ignoring antifa’s role in this is a bit disingenuous.

The chance of a child dying from a vaccine preventable disease in the United States is far lower than from a car accident. It would be absurd to suggest we charge vehicle drivers with attempted premeditated murder because there’s a risk the

There’s no problem with my argument. Enough people are voluntarily getting vaccines that it doesn’t justify government forcing people to, which I am philosophically opposed to unless absolutely necessary. I’ve repeatedly said I’d be willing

How many immune system compromised individuals die of vaccine-preventable diseases in the United States each year? Like I said, if it's thousands I might reconsider my stance. If not, sorry, but it doesn't justify the government f

I am pro-vaccination, but forcing anyone to anything to their body is in some ways worse than restricting their speech.

I have a choice to travel to other countries or not. I don't really have a choice to not live in (or not pay taxes to) the country I was born into.

> A solution involves restricting access to public spaces for selfish morons who don’t get vaccinated, and yes, their children. I'm certainly not an antivaxxer. I receive vaccines and will vaccinate my children. But the government m

This, and the "but the government has nukes" argument, assumes the only scenarios are "no resistance" or "all-out war". In reality there's likely a step function where even the possibility of some armed re
