Let it go too far left though, and the pushback is likely to be violent, which will hurt those in genuine need of compassion the most, but will also damage the civic character immensely.
You're threatening violence and have the gall of accusing the other side of damaging the civic character?
"Don't stand up for trans people or we will hurt them". If that happens, the fault is on those initiating the violence, bigoted scumbags like you.
You haven't been paying attention. Silicon Valley is the home of the stereotypical Libertarian douchebro: "I got mine, I want more, you got nothing, sucks to be you!".
No, you're an entitled little shit who wants to use services without paying for them.
You could have just paidd the fine. Instead you contested it, or were late, or for whatever other reason you involved the court system, as is your right, but now you are unwilling to pay for that service. Let me guess, you're one of those "taxes are theft" bozos?
You know what? If there is one generation that is 'Me! Me!' it is the boomers. The generation that found a cure for limp dicks to be more important than not destroying the planet.
See, and here is where you prove you're an idiot. Go read some Proudhon, or Bakunin, or Kropotkin, or if you want to stay in the US, Goldman.
There is a whole lot more to Socialism than just Marxism-Leninism. But of course, you being an idiot with the political sophistication of an invertebrate wouldn't know any of that. You, a PhD? From what diploma mill did you buy that, moron?
I'm a Socialist. I know about the Frankfurt School. Which you obviously don't.
'Cultural Marxism' is an easy shibboleth: it invariably indicates someone with a sub-Breitbart level of political sophistication. Also known as 'an idiot'.
I have some sympathy for Fidel because at least he wasn't Batista. But the narrative that makes him a mere plaything of forces beyond his control, as in 'he only turned communist because he got forced' does not square with my impression of a forceful man who was willing to do without support if need be for his cause.
Whatever you say of Fidel, character he didn't lack.
There really is enough evidence to cast at least doubt on that theory. The more accepted wisdom is that he did harbour strong Marxist sympathies and that the US opposition to his revolution was a good excuse to implement Marxist policies.
You forget that if you tell the Breitbart crowd that's now infesting Slashdot that they are wrong, they will go to any lenght to beat you down so they can turn this into another wingnut safe space.
here you have an open source booster (Red Hat's CEO Jim Whitehurst) pitching proprietary software as a good thing unto itself.
This does not have to mean what you imply it means. In-house business software is by its very nature proprietary. What Whitehouse is doing is essentially telling business that it is okay to build your own proprietary business software on top of FLOSS architecture, aka he's countering the usual 'if you use GPL software you must Open Source your internal software' FUD.
Because one end is the WhatsApp servers. The communication is not peer-to-peer, but relayed.
Essentially, after acquiring WhatsApp, Facebook turned it into a man in the middle to datamine all connections going through it. And quite probably that was the WhatsApp business plan all along: build up a network interesting enough for one of the big data miners to acquire.
Really, if you ban nudity faster than you can say "b00b13s!" but leave outright hate speech and incitement to violence up, then you shouldn't be surprised that people actually start holding you accountable.
You either police your userbase, or you don't. If you do it halfway, you leave the impression you're taking sides, at best.
And for the libertard crowd who shout "Freeze Peach!"? You're free to create your own Facebook clone. What right do you have to force your idea of perfect user policies on Facebook, according to your own philosophy?

The human trafficking angle is basically a poison pill against liberal (in the American sense) protests against the bill.
Yes, because the incidence of that happening is almost insignificant, and using it to stigmatise all young mothers is simply wrong.
The obvious solution is of course to address the regressive part of the problem and abolish the flat tax.
And Solandri just explained to you that's exactly why we're no longer using gold as a currency.

Of course it isn't. Your posts are so drenched in the signs of stupidity that arguments would be wasted.
Dear God, the crazy is strong in this one.
I notice you produce not even a link to your 'strong evidence'. Apparently you don't think it is all that strong?
I'm a Socialist. I know about the Frankfurt School. Which you obviously don't.
'Cultural Marxism' is an easy shibboleth: it invariably indicates someone with a sub-Breitbart level of political sophistication. Also known as 'an idiot'.
I wasn't referring to just you, but to OP in this thread too. It seems we agree quite a bit.
I have some sympathy for Fidel because at least he wasn't Batista.

Well, he seems to take the, to me, logical point of view that as a US citizen it behooves him to critcise his own government first.
Oh. Never mind. Logic is wasted on you. Carry on then.
Well, yes, too bad that archive does not contain what your alt-right media masters tell you it contains, i.e. 'hard evidence'.
Now go away and let the adults talk.
You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.
You forget that if you tell the Breitbart crowd that's now infesting Slashdot that they are wrong, they will go to any lenght to beat you down so they can turn this into another wingnut safe space.

All very nice, but the traffic is still not peer-to-peer. So:
