Lol who down voted you? The use of prison/slave labor is probably a factor in the disappearance of millions of jobs. And creates a perverse incentive for kickback relationships between certain industries and the…
Which is a bit horrific when you realize they act as sieves promoting the hire of such people in a higher proportion than the general population. Polygraphs are worse than useless and mere jokes; they are selectors for…

Sorry to hear that. Hopefully we'll learn enough to prevent such mismatches and to freely allow petitioning wanderers to become holy fools for a brief time. Note: Done 200+ trips w/ 2 bad ones in the first 10.
Shit humans have always existed. But claiming they support "terrorism" in the same sense that we think of organizational terrorism is ridiculous. 4chan and 8chan didn't create hyperirony (although they certainly…

The FBI, or law enforcement agency in general, and malice? What could you ever mean? Our professionals are the most noble automatons of integrity and never twisted by perverse incentives. Just give them the ring and you…
A dumb boy wandered outside and went inside thr dumbest place to find shelter from heat, the inside of a car. For this you want to expose society to even more dystopian ruin by hyper-asymetrical information gatherng via…

I understand that clearly. But clearly there are classes of institutions and people who... 1. Make a mockery of prudent allocation of money and get bailed out when their games get messed up 2. Mess up the purchasing…

A bit of real world experience might highlight what is really offensive and garish and gruesome in the world from the masochistic pleasure of 4chan's "shocking" rhetoric.
Why don't you be more specific? If you get down to the guts of everything... It's all "creepy".
It's more that people are starting to recognize that we're more poor than a decade ago in terms of buying power AND unemployment is closer to 25% than some ludicrous politicized value. When you shove apes deeper into…
Maybe spending untold billions of dollars on a mass surveillance state that cows the population into authoritarian submission is a phyrric response to the threat of terrorism. Terrorism which is exacerbated by our own…
Let's expand that further. They spend their most productive years paying off student loans (while inflationary policies make them poorer). But OOPS all the terrible information about nutrition and a lack of physical…
Is unprovoked violence any more tawdry because of racism? Most violence in the world stems from causes other than modern "racism". Any communication channel, by virtue of human nature, is going to enable assaulters and…
The jokesterism is in response to a joke world. There are innumerable numbers of murders each year but somehow a spree killing is enough to slay irony? 9/11 wasn't enough to slay irony. The reaction to it excaberbated…

Indeed. The reason I used the google homepage in the first place was how uncluttered it was. Adding ads and disturbing that quality seems like a phyrric move.
I will always be mad about the ME3 ending. If reincarnation is something that happens, my reincarnated self will be mad about the ME3 ending from birth. What a godamn waste.
