There are many reasons why police serve the role they do in society. Neglecting other reasons other than blatant racketeering—the role they play in preserving the institution of private property, the role they play in…
You don't have to believe anything, but if you don't see the racism that pervades our society you're utterly blind.

Please do not conflate people concerned about epidemics with narcissistic assholes.
Neither party is obligated to the interests of the people living in this country. I'm not saying this is necessarily bad advice but there are some problems that require actual citizens to do something aside from vote.
I'm not one to ever defend the institution of policing or the court system that feeds and protects it, but cops do not have general immunity. They have qualified immunity from civil cases in some places. The primary…
1. Most people don't have anything interesting to say. 2. People who do have interesting things to say deserve to get paid for their work. 3. Other platforms (e.g. TikTok) provide a more natural medium for interaction…
I've always felt that "sum" was sufficient and self-evident. I see no reason to drag "cogito" into the conversation, let alone "ergo".

Hell i'm not even sure you or I think. This is the problem with referring to subjective perception when we can't be sure we're even referring to the same thing. A "thought" might just be a linguistic quirk of two meats…
Spacetime (might be) infinitely large, but that doesn't imply that there is infinite matter or energy. That said, this is kind of a dumb argument because far lower k values have lower BB(k) values already exceed the…

There are known methods to retrieve power from the jaws of capital.
Glyphosate kills far more than just weeds (whatever those are).
Integers are an abstraction on top of words; words are perfectly safe.

I don't understand the fear—we have always lived in a society where truth exists in terms of degrees of certainty, and virtually any statement about the world can only be true with less than perfect certainty. Vagueness…
Being based on crypto, which is even more wildly unequally distributed than fiat currency, makes this idea a non-starter.
Better than tomorrow!
