There are a million ways to try to deny the forbidden conclusion, but none of them has withstood empirical scrutiny. Twin studies, adoption studies, etc. The only hypothesis that fits the data is that different races…
The truth requires accepting innate differences in intelligence across races.

You're indulging in a huge fiction: that people freely choose what to read and what to believe. Your beliefs are a product of your environment, and your environment was traditionally mostly your family and broader…
Do some research about exactly who is randomly attacking all of these Asians. You'll find that I'm right: it's basically just a huge uptick in black-on-asian violence.
"More racial tension in the US" I've seen no evidence of increased asian-related racial tensions aside from black people cold-cocking more Asians than usual. I don't think black street criminals are taking their cues…
Trump Derangement Syndrome (which is more than mere opposition to Trump) is a religious phenomenon and its adherents are just as incapable of acknowledging their irrationality as fundamentalists of any religion.
So the question is who decides. Do you let rich coastal Americans determine what you're allowed to talk about or do you let local powers make those decisions? Indians aren't very fond of foreign rule, and no control is…
They face a hostile media and political complex, as well as several thousand aggressively activist employees, that all demand that right-wing information be suppressed. If Facebook doesn't do what those groups demand,…
No good guys but the oligarchic silicon valley information complex is a definite bad guy that crowds out competing platforms where alternative views might flourish.
But maybe it will be run by Indian people, who will enforce Indian values, and who are accountable to their Indian families and Indian peers and Indian law.
Funny that no one was banned for saying, as many did, that it was impossible for it to have come from a Chinese lab. Those asymmetries in enforcement always seem to lean in the same direction.
No, it's because the platform policies enforce a foreign social order. In America, we have our own pieties and taboos and these social media platforms heavily enforce them. Transgenderism, homosexuality, racial…
The point is they dismissed it out of hand and banned anyone who said otherwise. Btw, liberal news outlets are finally admitting now that the lab leak hypothesis is probably right.
No sane country can allow their public discourse to be controlled by the peculiar moral pieties of the American elite class. True, important information, e.g. that covid-19 may have originated in a Chinese lab, is…
Sometimes you really just do need a 500 line function.
You are making the middle ground fallacy.
Since Bitwarden is end-to-end encrypted, the risk isn't who hosts the data but who controls chrome extension and App Store updates. Bitwarden's servers being compromised would cause you no harm except data loss, but a…
Some people are not self-driven but can still do good work if subjected to stronger authority. It's ultimately a business decision as to whether it's worth providing that kind of authority. But note that to the extent…

Yes, it does. This is exactly how you pick holes at research. What factors didn't it look at? That helps us understand the limits of what we can deduce from the data. Can we think of an intuitive story about why those…
There is no individual liability for sexual harassment in the US, only for employers. Anyway, my point was just to respond to someone claiming there was criminal liability.
Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned.
There is nothing in the laws of this country that makes an employee/manager sexual relationship a criminal offense. There is no criminal law against "sexual harassment," which exists as a legal concept only for purposes…
Only Rebekah Jones, who left her last three jobs with criminal charges, has claimed that. None of her claims have ever been substantiated by a single legit source. Only followers of fringe left wing Twitter believe any…
