- Comment on Democratic 'frontrunner' for 2028 goes after his own party for not clapping during Trump's speech 3 weeks ago:
My guess is it’s an instinct. You haven’t demonstrated any conscious appreciation of why discussion happens, so I’m guessing you just inherited an instinct to discuss things from your ancestors, who were more likely to survive given their predilection to talk

If we could get around the DNC’s stranglehold on itself, Bernie Sanders.
I would have said Tulsi Gabbard but that ship has sailed.
- Comment on MAGA Republican Logic 4 weeks ago:
So what’s different about this election, that makes you think it was rigged somehow, when all the other ones weren’t?
- Comment on MAGA Republican Logic 4 weeks ago:
I was a Democrat too. Your refusal to believe is part of why your party has lost power.
Your blindness only flies in your own echo chambers.
The downvotes I’ll receive only drive the point home that you do not value information you don’t like, and that is your biggest political weakness.
- Comment on MAGA Republican Logic 4 weeks ago:
The burden of proof is on one proving MAGA is trying to ban all those things. Can you prove any of them?
- Comment on MAGA Republican Logic 4 weeks ago:
Really? Provide evidence for one of the bans mentioned in the OP

Of course you are. Comment saved.

Because Canada tariffs us.

Tariffs are reserved for those who tariff US goods.
It really helps if you pay enough attention to know what’s going on.
- Comment on The phrase "mild-mannered" is meant to convey that nobody would suspect they are a superhero, but nowadays it is exclusively associated with secret superheroes 4 weeks ago:
Kinda like the word “delicacy”, which only ever refers to nasty indigenous food you must pretend to enjoy to avoid offending them.
- Comment on Judge rejects Musk's attempt to block OpenAI's for-profit transition 4 weeks ago:
The polarity of evil has flipped so far that you can’t escape. Now anything good Musk does becomes bad in your view. Musk switches the polarity of the thing, rather than the other way around.
Musk kisses a puppy, you unfortunately must now hate puppies. Such a strong statement.

- Comment on Nobody Wants a Nazi Electric Car 4 weeks ago:
Maybe it’s time to get better at researching companies before major decisions. Do you have a system in place for doing background research on future large purchases?
That shame is no use unless it helps you update your behavior. Shame about a “one-off” decision in the past will continue to nag you until you figure out how to avoid the same mistake in the future.
So how can you avoid realizing ten years out that some big purchase you made supported someone you disagree with? How can you do it in advance?
- Comment on Nobody Wants a Nazi Electric Car 4 weeks ago:
Also actual Nazis were worse than the “nazis” everyone’s worried about now.
- Comment on Nobody Wants a Nazi Electric Car 4 weeks ago:
Not as big a deal as virtue signaling to that particular British scientist, naturally, but it’s quite important to the other ones I’m sure.

- Comment on Why are there so many graybeards in FOSS? 1 month ago:
Retirement and open source contribution sounds like an excellent combination to me. Give the old men something to do, let the projects be worked on by people who can take their time, make the best use of the expertise. All that sounds great.
- Comment on Why are there so many graybeards in FOSS? 1 month ago:
Because older men tend to be more financially secure and hence have more time for generosity.
- Comment on why do people say annoying/rude stuff and then tell you “it was a joke!” 1 month ago:
People will test the quality of a communication channel by saying nonsensical things on that channel, to see if those interpreting the message believe the nonsense.
It’s a way of affirming a bond of understanding between people.

- Comment on Can you eat soap for acid reflux? 1 month ago:
That’s a lot! What was the effect? Have you taken that much before?
In my own experience if I take more than a teaspoon in maybe a four hour period, I start getting undigested leaves coming out the other end.

No! A teaspoon max.
