It's that bad, but as long as we are the most manipulated and lied-to people on the face of the planet your revolution will never start, making the 2nd ammendment just a sop to people that think they are ultimately in control
Except of course that we are the most lied-to, manipulated population on the planet. When the corporations can contribute unlimited funds to lying to and manipulating the public before an election, just how do you expect to get a fair election, i.e., an election based on the truth?
And there you have it: the North Koreans represent such a definitive immenent high level threat that we must be prepared to destroy the earth to stop them!!! By the way, where is this 'North Korea' that you speak of?
I spoke of corruption of the court if you took the time to read and, hopefully understand, my comment. What the legislature did is not what the court did. So I guess what the legislature did completelt erased all corruption in this country, an interesting thought (not). And exactly what information did you use to draw any of your conclusions, since nothing in my comment in any way relates to your screed, something you have generated out of whole cloth. Please stop making the mistake of thinking yor imagination in any way relates to reality.
The courts are moving in the direction of greater and greater corruption. At least there was a bright spot recently when an appeals court said that calling the video taping of the police "wire tapping" was an outright lie by the law enforcement community. Clearly that judge doesn't get it.
"clearly the author is bitter about how the public has villified climate science" There, fixed it for you. No need to thank me, I probably did it as part of the leftist agenda.
"Like you aren't going to continue to get paid for the work you're doing now through your elderly years."
Wow, I didn't know this was possible, please explain. My boss has no intention of paying me "through [my] elderly years" but if there is a way to make him pay up I would sure like to know how.
You really think Computer Science is less rigorous? When I went to school at Berkeley most of the professors in computer science had joint appointments in either the Mathematics or Engineering departments, departments not usually considered "less rigorous"
After all, phones can be used to organize opposition! So can copiers, and printers. Also cars and busses take people to protests, those must be stopped! In fact any item of technology ever invented can be used to oppose those in power, so we need a universal device that can kill all technology so the people in power will feel less threatened! Everyone can just sit on their hands until the threat passes.
"Such compounds are so common in the universe that finding them floating in space is trivial?" Correct. My theory is that this is the debris of countless space wars that have occured throughout the galaxy.
So what you are saying is that, when a company study that was funded by a vote that included Republican representatives voting yes (proxies for the 'GOP') comes up with science, that science is attacked on slashdot by liberals because the science was funded (in part) by votes of Republicans? You have got to be kidding me, I have never seen even one example of such an absurdity, much less a tendency. If you can't point to even one example then I call nonsense.
Note I am not claiming that the GOP has not contributed to science in the left-handed way of voting funding for science projects, I am claiming that such science has never been derided by liberals simply because Republicans voted for funding, which is the essence of your claim.
"ideas originating in "the enemy camp" (Chinese, GOP, etc.) is regarded with derision."
Are you seriously proposing that the GOP has something siginficant to say about science, as in contributions? After all, that is the topic of this thread. Please link to a serious contribution to science made by the GOP, and how it was attacked on Slashdot with "a fanatically liberal, pro-western slant".
Slashdot Mirror
We have become consumed by the fear of a mosquito bite, are we going to continue to give up our freedom for what amounts to a non-issue?
Then life must be everywhere in the universe!

"Of course, I'm going to be criticized here for even daring to question the accepted narrative."
You are not "daring to question the accepted narrative", your narrative is the accepted narrative, for morons.

If he isn't gutting the military-industrial-spy complex then he is just another fraud and blowhard.
I think the poster means that tax evasion is the moral equivalent of theft, not that there is a statute making tax evasion the crime of theft.

What the hell are you on? The poster said nothing about race, but just let your imagination run wild then think it is reality.

Polywater?
Try to stop thinking the products of your imagination are 'facts'.
"Without the Death Penalty there can be no justice"
The death penalty has nothing to do with justice and everything to do with revenge.
I think it is the 'logic' part that will help discern lies, not the 'coding' part.

"The world pop. will stablize at around 9 billion."
And you came by this how exactly? ESP? Channeling God? Something else?
"less rigorous science.. Computer Science"
You really think Computer Science is less rigorous? When I went to school at Berkeley most of the professors in computer science had joint appointments in either the Mathematics or Engineering departments, departments not usually considered "less rigorous"
and have no risk of law suit, why shouldn't the Chinese be able to also?

So your *solution* is to eat the seed stock until there is nothing left, followed by mass starvation? Great plan!
