    Asian women look retarded and sufficiently mongoloid

    They are only nominally loved by other Muslim nations insofar as it provides a convenient distraction for the local dictators to rile up their populace against someone other than themselves.

    Well, you did say only one natiin with an irrational hatred. Are all these local dictatorships being rational?

    Letting through hate speech may make people angry, but it does not make people angry at facebook, or distrust facebook.

    Censorship in a misguided attempt to control it makes people distrust facebook, especially when added onto other issues like records and data collection.

    this feature will be retired on July 30th due to declining usage

    It's declining in usage because you're hiding reviews and making them hard to find!

    You're making them hard to find because the tendency of people to bitch rather than praise makes people not watch many offerings, your internal numbers show.

    This hurts subscription maintenance as people feel they are getting less out of it once they've watched the good stuff.

    Ergo reviews have to go.

    The correct solution is to reduce the power of government, and, by doing so, reducing its control as a prize.

    Increasing power, including censorship of the printing press to mass produce and distribute speech, is rocketting in the wrong direction.

    The assumption was the chance of dying went exponential. But there may be a stability plateau out there nobody has reached yet. Well if not stable then stable-er than exponential anyway.

    Your cells stop dividing i.e. renewing, and slowly just die off of old age until there aren't enough cells alive in this or that organ to keep you alive.

    But if there are some core of cells that live much longer, or keep dividing, and you can survive the die-off of everything else...

    It's a great concept but is it true.l?

    In general watch the show or movie first, then read the original. You can only see the movie first once while knowing nothing about it.

    Look at all the sorry-ass whining about stuff like Watchmen or The Shining, which are magnificent movies in their own right, as is. Why poison yourself ahead of time if you don't have to.

    Wondering as first thought if you have permission to do something is a symptom of living in a corrupt government. The reason some people have to bring an "extra" wad of money to the DMV or wait 5 years for a driver's license is that corrupt officials slide their way in because that's how you earn money -- ge5ting in the way to get paid to get back out of the way.

    That there are so many regulations people wonder what is permitted rather than forbidden supports this massively over-regulated systrm.
