Effort needs to be concentrated where it will have maximum impact. At the moment that's the presidency, and POTUS's apparent support of white nationalists and neo-Nazis.
Trump has actually done a lot to unite the left, the centre and the moderate right in a common cause.
The alt-right is made up of several different sub-groups, each with slightly differing but largely overlapping ideology. You have white supremacists, nationalists, simple racists, Nazis, MGOTW, 4chan's/pol/ board, "new media" like Brietnbart and InfoWars...
Basically any far right group that benefits from the support network of fake news outlets and which hates the standard set of boogymen (Jews, non-whites, feminists etc.) is quite likely to be part of the alt-right.
I wish I had a clip of that Republican politician explaining it. A reporter pointed out that the crime stats say that crime is down under Obama, but he counters that people "feel" like crime is up. And people's perception is an equally valid alternative form of truth in his opinion.
The more attention they get the worse it's going to be for them. They think that because Trump is supporting them they can go mainstream, but they are wrong.
This could be Trump's Katrina moment. It would be delicious irony if the alt-right that got him there ends up taking him down too, although not entirely unpredictable.
The point is that both are labelling everyone who disagrees with you with the same insult, rather than engaging in debate and trying to understand their point.
People keep complaining about being called Nazis, not even listening carefully enough to notice that it's not directed at them. It's directed at the guy with the swastika standing next to them.
It's a warning that the mainstream right is being infiltrated and subsumed by the far right. Trump, the guy at the very top, took 60 hours to give a half assed condemnation of those guys. That should worry you.
My local cinema offers a monthly pass for about $15. You can see as many movies as you like, the only stipulation being that you have to go outside peak times for popular films. Nothing in the first week of release for the biggest releases.
I just find it amazing that people think a company like Intel, which sells mostly to OEMs and other businesses rather than the public, engages in virtue signalling that would harm their own business.
Also, stop virtue signalling. We get it, you don't like virtue signalling, no need to go around virtue signalling about it.
Back when I was on LinkedIn, so several years ago now, you used to be able to see who was viewing your profile. It was quite interesting to see who was looking at you. Mostly recruiters of course.
If that's still the case then copying the data to another web site means that users of LinkedIn can no longer see who is viewing their profile, or get an accurate "hit count" on the stuff that is public and available to non-logged-in viewers.
I don't know what controls LinkedIn has for privacy. Is public visibility opt-in? If so then it seems that there is a good case to be made that the user shared the data willingly.
Much of this decline is due to women reporting their feeling more honestly now. It's become more acceptable for women not fit the stereotypical smiling wife role, or to admit that they are depressed after becoming mothers, that sort of thing.
The situation is even worse with men. Look at the suicide rates compared to how many claim that they are okay. It's really unhealthy.
Twitter needs to ban @RealDonaldTrump. Twitter's terms of service clearly state that actions which endanger or threaten others are not allowed. As POTUS, the things he says have very real consequences, and he peers have already had to tell him to tone it down several times.
Can you imagine the damage to Twitter's stock price if a tweet started a nuclear exchange?
The term "political correctness" really came to prominence in the 1980s. People have been complaining about other people complaining forever, it's just the language that changes a little.
Modded troll, because Slashdot hates open and honest debate and the truth trolls the poor snowflakes.
It wasn't supported by the sources, because they acknowledge that the two groups (male/female) are starting from different baseline levels of stress, and because social norms expect them to handle stress in different ways.
The Nazis in the 1930s claimed not to be about Nazi ideology, just defending their people and opposing immigration and all that stuff that Spencer is now saying. That's how they work, pretending to be socialist until they get into power.
We have been trying to warn you about the actual Nazis who are in your midst, but you keep having little fits of rage like that one.
It's in your own interest to acknowledge this problem and try to deal with it. This rally and the violence from the literal Nazis who where there has damaged both the alt-right and Trump. Is that what you want?
Race is bullshit anyway. It's just an arbitrary division based on a fairly random selection of traits. That's one reason why the ratio of non-white people is increasing - people who were white are now considered something else as the definition of race shifts.
I think it's mostly because people have been told they are under attack and should be angry at anti-white male discrimination.
I get the same thing with immigration. People are supportive when they hear my wife is trying to immigrate, but moments later rant about the being too many immigrants and them not speaking English in public.
In other words there is a disconnect between the idea of immigrants (bad) and the ones they actually know (good), that gets rationalised somehow.
They say "I don't mean you," but they really do. If they didn't know us, just saw her ahead of them in the checkout queue or heard her not speaking English, they would assume the worst.
Go read the memo. He states explicitly that women are less able to deal with stress, among other things. It's not just preference, he unambiguously says that women are inferior in that regard.

When are we supposed to "invent" transparent aluminium? Some time in the 80s I thought...

That's why projects like Tor are so important.
The point is that both are labelling everyone who disagrees with you with the same insult, rather than engaging in debate and trying to understand their point.
Why do you assume I support silencing people? Or were you talking generally and not about me specifically?
Your previous post is you complaining that people call everyone they disagree with Nazis. Here you are calling everyone you disagree with an idiot.

What add-ons do you have installed? Insane memory usage like that is usually due to broke add-ons.
For comparison I fired up an instance with only uBlock and 14 Slashdot tabs and it's using 330MB.

They fill otherwise empty seats I suppose.

Interesting.
Wrong. Slashdot troll mods say it's "-1 flamebait", so why are you not enraged?
This place really has become an echo chamber.

Don't fall for it. Again.

It's not retaliation for the actions of those at the protest, it's enforcement of the ToS covering incitement.
