I doubt he reads Slate at all: most of what he wrote was anti-liberal dogwhistles, so you bet he gets his news from somewhere that tells him what he wants to hear.
^^^ proof that any story can be derailed by conservative jackasses who want to complain about the government, right there. Needs more random CAPITALIZATION to make A POINT, though.
Now I hope all you jackasses who immediately piled on with your superiority complexes ("oh, how could an engineer be/that/ stupid? I know better than him, hee hee") have learned something, but I doubt it.
Two kinds of/. articles keep my killfile topped up: those about global warming (deniers), and those with "men's rights advocates" who engage in victim-blaming. Neither sort of person's comments are worth reading.
Related: it's dumb that we're limited to 200 friend/foe relationships. I ran into that limit earlier this week and had to spend an hour trimming out users who don't post any longer.
Pretty neat if you can afford it plus the cost of modding your console for RGB-out, which by itself is at least $100 for just the parts, and there are a limited number of those - the ones I've seen were stripped from old PlayChoice 10 cabinets. For us common trolls, a good emulator + a warezed ROM collection does the job.
I'll even break it down for you. You got into this crazy spot because:
1) you don't want to believe that AGW is true 2) you find any goddamn reason, no matter how tenuously connected to reality or frequently debunked, to deny its existence because the consequences (if true) are too terrible 3) besides, the people who are convinced that AGW is true and we shouldn't pollute so much are those people. 4) Those people just want to tell you how to live anyway, so fuck them. 5) so therefore, you've convinced yourself that AGW is a bunch of baloney.
cue email forward:
AND SO EINSTEIN PROVED GOD EXISTS (and his atheist public school teacher was a dunce).
"it's not true, but it makes a good point!"
Look, I said I was sorry, I didn't know she was your mom!
Because hardly anyone uses DNSSEC, ISPs included.
Fuck me. Tell me you're exaggerating.
It's not Montana - there has to be virgins among the livestock.
On the other hand, I don't recall Jesus ever decrying slavery.
But as an engineer
This does not surprise me.

That paper didn't get known as the Daily Fail and Daily Hate for nothing.

Say it ain't so!
I don't plonk all of the above, just the most egregious who are beyond changing their minds. Life's too short to deal with stupid people.
On the other hand, I know how to use quote tags correctly, so I've got that going for me, which is nice.

That's really brave to say something potentially inflammatory as an anonymous coward.

Not that you're a flaming ideologue or anything. ::reads your signature::
Oh, you are. Well, things always seem simple to people with a religion to push.
The Law of Fives is a hoax. Hail Eris!
Fuck Buzzfeed with a rusty buzzsaw.
People have been asking that at least since Socrates was put to death for asking annoying questions.
Therefore we can ignore it and I can keep driving my SUV that gets 10 MPG to the grocery store. Suck it, liberals!

I just wanted to post "trolling with a swinging dong" and have it be relevant to the story for once.
Today I learned that mocking a white supremacist is racism. Who knew?
