Critical thinking is the most important tool for anyone, PhD or not. In this noisy world that we find ourselves in today, one MUST cultivate critical thinking skills. I don't trust phds because they "sound smart". Indeed, tru

Also, 99 percent of the US military will defect to protect their own country against a rogue federal government. These are normal, good people who signed up to protect us.

I would still trust a PhD in any field over some commercialized "artist". At least he went through the rigorous process of obtaining that degree. It changes people for the good, in my opinion.

Yes, what you said -- you gave me two options, I gave you an answer. Not sure why you thought I am sitting here waiting to "debate" you. This is just my opinion. Please don't take an abstract opinion so personally.

More like art isn't valuable, especially in the context of the hyper commercialized, capitalistic "art scene" in America. I mean, this is the Kim Kardashian country, Dr. Phil country. Where a reality TV star is president and

This is a country that worships celebrities. Kardashian, Trump, Donald Grover, etc. What one do about it... There are a few good non celebrities we should be listening to. Sam Harris, Jordan Peterson's, etc. Highly educated, high signa

Trust me man, you haven't seen the ugly side of many liberal "pro immigration" folks. At least the guy you are responding to is being honest.

Have been thinking about it, honestly. I came to this country for about 13 years. I know I dont have a right to live here. But after paying college fees, taxes, various visa fees, etc, I feel some entitlement. I have lived here longer than

Lawyer adviced the same. Told me it was almost impossible for me to do EB-1 and it was all about luck. I don't really want to do that. It's just frustrating seeing people I went to school with years ago from other countries become

Same here man. I'm getting sick and tired of immigration in this country. The whole country is worried about illegal aliens and no one cares about us. And this is not new with trump. Been on h1b for years . It just got worse over time

This sounds similar to a real experiment: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Third_Wave_(experiment) There is an amazing movie based on it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Wave_(2008_film) > W

Your bank is insured by the FDIC. Up to some amount. Who will insure elections in case of hacks? Also, more electronic voting means maybe more centralization which can increase the scale of hacks.

I am very well aware of the natural rights theory developed during the age of enlightenment. We have given up our natural right to kill another person. I am suggesting we should give up our natrual right to bear arms. The idea with natural

I won't call it excellent. If they didn't have weapons, then the US government would have caused less destruction and would have fixed those countries much more quickly. Similarly, if America didn't have guns, the civil war w

I am precisely saying that Congress should be allowed to pass any type of gun laws. Right now, Congress cannot infringe on people's rights to bear arms due to 2A. I am saying Congress should be able to do that. They should be able to b

Yea but the civil war happened, which was super deadly. I see what you are getting at. But honestly, if the gov wants to do a genocide, they have tanks and bombers to do it. No AR15 will help against that anyway.

Yea, I know. I am asking why not repeal this amendment, like the 21 amendment did for the 18th. Why have it as a "right"? If its not a right, then the government can pass much stronger gun laws, including confiscations, etc. But s

Thats an interesting point. There is actual hatred for country folks. I get it though. My folks are from a village in India. We sometimes get shit on by city folks too. Some country folks like guns. But its not a "right".

> Teaching gun culture and demanding gun safes (like it's done around here) would probably be a safer and more efficient route. That can be done and the 2A can also be repealed (gun ownership doesnt need to be a "right").

> We need to stop being okay with a culture that routinely gives people a reason to go postal. why not start with eliminating the means of going "postal"? Why even have a "right" to AR15s or any guns at all.

I dont understand why. How can they see school shootings and see that toxic masculinity in the form of guns is so bad for society. Do they just value different things culturally?

I'm not too sure. Equality of opportunity doesn't help uplift marginalized populations. At least outcome can be measured and so that could be one way of guiding the uplifting of populations. Example, women earning equal to men. Th

of course I wouldnt be too different. I'm just saying you should talk to someone about this. Isn't it good that you didn't have access to guns? So why not just repeal the 2A?

> If I would have had access to a gun I would have tried to kill them. you got issues, mate. maybe talk to someone? > We need common sense gun control. like what? anything short of repealing the 2A makes no sense to me frankly. Perhap

I am just extremely wary of people who call me a person of color and who view things firstly through the lens of race. Of course there is racism in the west but correcting that shouldn't mean more racism. Do you also believe Indians an
