    It shouldn't be this way.

    Someone should tell all the travelers that they need to arrive in the U.S. from some other direction.

    There's that but it doesn't even have to go that far; machine logic (I refuse to say "AI") guided by people will be bad enough. The machines don't need to "wake up" or develop their "own" agenda to be a threat to the human race; the humans controlling them can ensure that easily enough.

    Atheism is indeed the most daring of all dogmas.

    Atheism is a belief based on an unsubstantiated claim and as such is no different than religion.

    Agnosticism: being smart and sane enough to admit that you don't fucking know.

    It might be even cooler... to launch a balloon from a rocket. You know, if you're a flat-earther.

    Jews are a race.

    Merely a culture and a religion (a religion that has greatly ignored the self-evident need to remain separate fom government: theocracies- even indirect theocracies - not good). True Isrealites (Semitic Jews) are long extinct; living Jews are either Sephardic (Persian descent) or more likely Ashkenazi (Central Asian/Eastern European; mongrels like the rest of us)...

  6. Trump's administration is so corrupt, the FBI will find plenty to hang them with

    In this arena, the level of "corruption" is entirely orthogonal to whether or not a puppet is made an example of... and if that's not perfectly clear at this point, you either haven't studied any political history or you didn't learn anything useful from it...

    because Trump thinks

    I'm quite certain that's not an explanation for anything that's occurred so far.

    Sounds like appropriate slang for "chick with a dick" - going to start using that.

    Youre projecting; not being a millennial, I'm perfectly capable of stating what needs to be said without getting angry. ;)

    I like your simple reasoning; unfortunately, there are a few more variables on the equation.

    All this hot air out of your ass is a dead giveaway that you didn't even read the article.

    On behalf of everyone who's experienced something that doesn't have a conventional explanation... go fuck yourself.

    You're right: those other industries died healthy deaths; taxi companies, however, are like the undead and will require extra effort to eradicate.

    Not only that, the system - 2500 fucking light years away - is nothing like our own. Eight planets?? How arbitrary... and underwelming.
