Aspies also tend to be extreme control freaks about anything that involves their healthcare
One has to wonder then if there is a correlation between the diagnosis rates and any of the mortality data. Doctors for sure are diagnosing autism more frequently than ever before.
I am almost certainly somewhere on the spectrum. I really dont trust doctors much, and dentists not at all.
Giving consumers the ability to choose what they eat outweighs the 'freedom' the manufacturer has to display what they want.
Which is why there should be clear labeling whenever the manufacturer neglected to use black magic. Even fruits should have stickers on them if black magic wasn't used. Its very dangerous not to use black magic when growing food. The public has a right to know.
My understanding is that he said some extremely racist things in the video, but in these days of hyper-sensitivity.... who knows.
The thing is that he has a right to be a secret extreme racist. People are actually allowed to believe whatever they fuck they want to believe. I know, crazy stuff right there.
There are some that demand that beliefs be labeled acceptable or unacceptable, so that they can then assign differing levels of "justifiable treatment" to people based on their beliefs. This demand is more plainly the demand that their own beliefs be given special treatment, at the expense of all who believe otherwise.
Its fair to violate Hogan's rights because Hogan has unacceptable beliefs, right?
You need to understand that the people that willingly harm others believe that everyone else is out to willingly harm them, which leads to them accusing others of the acts that they themselves commit.
You see it on both the left and right, but the largest concentration of it is within the "progressive" left. They think that "their opponents" are sexist because they themselves can't see past sex, they think that "their opponents" are racist because they themselves cant see past race, and so on....
So the people that actually do swat/dox/harass others are accusing "their opponents" of doing that stuff. They justify it internally based on their convenient assumption that "their opponents" do this also.
As it was Microsoft that was footing the bill for it... yes it was.
So paying for it makes it an corporate event.... even when...
Now to be fair, I realize this was an 'after party'....
So the start of your second paragraph reveals that your first paragraph is bullshit.. "not even being fair".. thanks.
Pick a theory. A single one. If you value rage more than veracity, remove your second paragraph. If you value veracity more than rage, remove the first.
the organizers probably should have been up front with all of employees about the kind of entertainment that was hired for the party
You mean that nobody knew that there would be girls wearing green and dancing in a las vegas night club, where alcohol is served 24/7/365, on saint patricks day of all days.
The facts are that you value the rage more than you do veracity. Its quite sickening that some people actually value the rage like you do.
I do, however, have a problem with a deliberately sexually charged atmosphere at a corporate event when the corporation's line of business is entirely independent of it.
I have a problem when people that arent talking about reality become outraged at their own pet fantasy.
To be specific, this was not at a corporate event. You've gone on and on now, outraged, about something that didnt even happen. Your desire to be outraged is clearly considerably higher than your desire to be veracious. The former is a bad quality to have, while the later would have been a good quality to have had you had some of it.
Heterosexual women like looking at sexualized women or else the fashion industry, which markets to women because they spend a lot more than men on fashion, wouldnt use so many sexualized women.
These social justice warriors like to try to turn this fashion fact into another attack on men, by saying that this "unrealistic" portrayal of women is the fault of the patriarchy. Its not possible that marketing is actually simple, that the marketers are targeting the demographic that they say they are targeting, using the imagery most effective for that demographic, and the demographic in question is where most of the money is.
These sjw's are in femininity denial. The true sexists.
Which poll determines that most americans think that Apple should, and I fucking quote you, roll over for the FBI "just this once" because terrorism
Amazing that you took the extra step to be very specific, and even took the extra step and pretended that the links you provided say what you claimed they would say, now its time to go through the extra step of shutting the fuck up and let the people that dont just make things up like a spoiled cunt talk.
Notice how he acted like an expert, derided established economic theory, but was then shown to be making naive errors in almost every sentence he wrote.
The thing is, if he replies to you, he will still act like an expert, will still derided established economic theory, and will still make naive errors in almost every sentence.
Announcing that not only will he build a wall along the border, but he'll make Mexico pay for it.
I actually believe him.
The reason I believe him is that he has successfully gotten the media to fund his election campaign. If a Republican can get the media to fund their election campaign, its not hard to imagine that same Republican getting the Mexicans to pay for a wall.
So you don't think any effort should be made to let as many people as possible know...
In order to let as many people as possible know, you have to literally let everyone alive know. Odds are fairly good that in order to accomplish that, the only requirement-fulfilling "any effort" is in fact "too much effort."
I suggest that this "any effort" begins with you. I will happily join you and help as soon as I have seen that you have really committed to this endeavor. Tell you what.. if you manage to get even 10% of the way to the goal, I will promise to deliver the other 90%.

There are Muslims and Christians in the Israeli Parliament
So if the hate crimes of Israel arent about religion... then its about what... race?
I agree. It is.

Question for you: do you know how GMO foods are made?
I do.
They are grown using sunlight, water, nitrogen, carbon dioxide, and various other carbon compounds.
I also know how non-gmo food is made. Wanna take a fucking guess as to how?
Hand-waving isn't a fucking argument, you dumb fuck.
Engineer? For fuck sakes Bill Nye has always been a performer. He's been riding his name recognition since "Science Guy."
Here he is as one of the "High-fiving white guys."

Your argument boils down to: People don't think/believe/do what you want, therefore they should be denied their right to know.
I believe that all foods that do not use Black Magic in their growth and preparation should be labeled as such.
Before you go there, how dare you deny my right to know.

1) He didn't know he was being recorded. He didn't consent to being recorded. He didn't give permission to release the tape.
2) Gawker then used the celebrity of someone who had no idea the tape was being made to drive traffic to their website and make a profit.
3) Gawker then ignored a court order to take the content down.

If the visibility is good and nobody else is on the road, stop at and then ignore the red light.

Can't anybody have any damned fun any l anymore without having hyper sensitive idiots go ape shit over it?
The only people that can't... are white heterosexual men.

Over the past couple of centuries, automation has never shrunk the available work pool. Why would it start doing that now?
Don't you know? Economics is a zero sum game [based on the arguments of progressives.]

Welcome to debating progressives.
Documents that prove activity so seedy or outright illegal that it could be used against him.
You mean they are going to seize his private email server?

Should we start removing race/sex questions from all federal paperwork?
Yes.
The liberals wont allow that though, because of their darling affirmative action crap.
~25% of this country is not "old white people and white supremacists".
It is in the eyes of the Democrats. MSNBC isnt lying about their demographic.
8 isn't prime.
Google is well within their rights to do this.
Yes.
They offer a $10/mo service to go ad-free.
Yes.
There isn't any excuse to block ads on Youtube.
Wrong you idiot.

The "I say it won't work, therefore it need not be tried" argument is pretty flimsy
Also flimsy are the "I think if we do this same thing again that things will be different this time" people.
as is "criminals don't respect the law therefore we don't need the law"
Funny that this logic is considered so valid in the case of encyption.
They won't go to *0* and no one is claiming that, but we need to move in the right direction.
So instead of claiming that your idea is a good one, you instead make the much looser claim that its "in the right direction."
Next you will be asking us to think of the children... oh, you did.. just not in THIS post.
