Stop frothing. The writer disagrees with you about which bit was most important. Mystery solved! (How can a person spend years wrapping themselves in fringe political views, but still be mystified that a mainstream journalist might disagree with …

@Bill said: Observe the order the information is presented. I thought for a few seconds that I had accidentally skipped to a different news article. Note their choice of font as well. Confirms my suspicions.

I'm with Filious on Musk. The recent stuff with that "let's all police those dishonest journalists" project, and the way he responded to criticism about it, has been very cult-of-personality stuff. He sounds Trumpish at times. @Rufus said:…

@Rufus said: That's probably the most callous response I've ever seen you give... Eh, I think it's just the standard "if Eric Garner didn't want to get choked to death maybe he shouldn't have committed a nonviolent misdemeanor" line one s…

@Bill said: They can take their families with them. If they are being broken up, it's by the criminal infiltrator's choice. Oh, take your twenty-sixth consecutive counterargument-to-what-nobody-said and gargle with it. Then count up all r…

Since quite a bit earlier than that I think. Extrajudicial enforcement like ICE is so profoundly unamerican it beggars belief.

@Bill said: You may disagree that [immigration] is an existential problem, but Sailer's supporters believe... If you think the alternative to citizenism is a happy multicultural society where everyone gets along... You are utterly bonk…

My pet peeve is car commercials that show off automatic brake systems like this: Shit, I could write a program that detects boxes that look like cars on a sunny day. Show a demo of the car braking automatically to avoid an overturned bicycle …

"In Dr. Johnson's famous dictionary patriotism is defined as the last resort of a scoundrel. With all due respect to an enlightened but inferior lexicographer I beg to submit it is the first." (Bierce)

By the way, this applies to you too. Back in the old forum I recall once saying something to the effect that an immigrant who just got naturalized twenty minutes ago is no less a citizen than you are, and your concerns don't trump his, and I don't r…

You're not following me - the issue isn't how he describes it, it's how he applies it. Think of it as Occam's Razor for morality - we can agree that a person holds a moral position only when their actions can't be explained by assuming they hold …

Bill, you get the notion that supporting freedom of speech doesn't mean anything unless one supports it for speech one disagrees with, yeah? By the same token, "his tribe is US citizens" can only be meaningful to whatever extent the person shows …

1. That doesn't make it any better 2. His articles you've posted here have not supported even that claim

He's indistinguishable from every other "my tribe over your tribe at any cost" partisan idiot pulling the country apart.

Popehat weighs in

That bit is probably not so much politics, as his own legal strategy. He needs to stop his people from informing to Mueller and pardons are the only tool he has.

In times of strife we can always count on iSteve for an article about who does and doesn't look black.

The other day the US president made a public statement pretending to be his own wife, and the country sort of went, "huh... weird". The presidency is unrecognizable. It's really weird to wonder what future history books will say about it (if such…

"...And some, I assume, are nice people"

Anyhoo I wouldn't worry to much about a resurgence of STDs, we have smart people in charge and they probably know what they're doing.

If you google a chart of HIV incidence by year in the US, it shoots up and then shoots back down again. What caused the sharp decrease? Was it phages?

What's the cognitive bias for when someone argues against something on the grounds that it's imperfect, even though everything else is too?

This "incel" stuff might be the stupidest thing western civilization has yet come up with. Maybe second to homeopathy.

I just watched it earlier, and it's hard to reconcile the furore over it with the speech itself. If you'd asked me to guess what people would take exception with I'd have thought it be saying "fuck", but that seems to have passed without comment. Th…
