Even if you misunderstand the intent of the author, you can give a well-reasoned interpretation. From what I remember of the standardized tests, they were either more interested in marking the structure of the content than the content itsel

That's a good counterpoint to relativism, and that's why I accept moral realism, relative morals are self-contradicting (or you can accept that everything is morally right and wrong simultaneously, which is bordering on nihilism)

Reddit's a bit different than forums as far as I can tell. There was a forum I used to frequent, even years later I can recognize someone's avatar, crack inside jokes with them. Reddit's a little too open to have that kind of

It's possible that they're working in the frame of mind that there aren't any low-hanging fruit left after so many years of compiler optimizations and forget to even try.

Any time a decision is made, it's up to the whims of somebody. What you're saying wouldn't make sense even if we had technical means to deterministically decide everything.

Well, it depends on how you think rights should be granted. I personally don't agree with how rights is handled in a lot of cases, giving a sufficiently powerful entity freedom is equivalent to taking away freedom from every other less

I don't think Internet anonymity is a thing though. Even if you make a fully unrelated identity, smearing that identity is enough to discredit your ability to engage online. Sure, you can make another and another, but starting over wit
