I don't think its reasonable to demand people pepper every comment with citaitons and links for things that can easily be found with a quick internet search.

Coming up with a poll question where any answer you give will be interpreted as support for the pollster's politics is an art. I totally believe that poll. A lot of those people probably wish they could express an…

>probably goes back tens of thousands of years I think you're off by several orders of magnitude, but yea it goes back a long way lol
Why do you think those parents think that? Would any parent have thought that 50 years ago? No way.
Do you think the Israeli government was telling the truth when it denied using the phone call records transmitted to Amdocs' servers in Israel for intelligence purposes?
Any report that cites the navy videos from last year is not going to be very interesting. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jWWGmiZs4JA Videos of blurry splotches and eye witness testimony that repeats the word…
>chronically-suffering animal’s life I don't think most farm animals are suffering through their entire life. They seem pretty all right to me. Factory chicken farms should be banned but not all meat.
> Removing grazing animals from the land can allow for reforestation and increase biodiversity and carbon sequestration Ok. How much land could be reforested that way? Most grazing happens in places that are naturally…
I can respect that. Slaughterhouses are not pretty places. The weirdness is when you consider that the animals only exist because people raised them for their meat, is it really less cruel for these animals to never…
And yet it's true. 2/3rds of pasture is not suitable for agriculture and would be worthless without ruminants. The corn-fed cattle industry in the US is a result of energy being cheap and labor being expensive. Less…
That land is called marginal land, or pasture. You can't grow crops there economically r do anything else really. Removing the grazing animals from the land changes nothing and does not improve the environment at all.…
Precisely this. A blog gets to decide what comments to allow. But if Facebook wants to connect everyone in my country then we as a people have a right to decide what is allowed and what isn't, not some billionaire. This…
I've seen this argument a lot recently. "If we screw other people in a sufficiently convoluted and Rube-Goldbergian enough way then it's almost like we're not screwing over anyone at all!"
Train stations are cheaper than airports. California High-Speed rail line plus a few stations is most certainly not.

Why build a train line that only takes you where a bus could, when you could build an airport that connects you to the entire globe?

Under the 4th amendment NSA is forbidden from collecting the communications of US citizens without a warrant. Do you disagree or think the constitution should be amended to authorize that?
Exactly, which is why an open and complete back and forth discussion of the data is required to establish the truth. People who have trained themselves to be allergic to data often do so because their prejudices and…
