During the gay marriage debate in Canada people were actually arguing that marriage equality already exists, since everyone gay or straight cannot marry people of the same sex, and therefore gay marriage is a special privilege and not equality.

When someone is motivated enough, they can come up with all manner of reasoning in bad faith and not serving justice in any meaningful way, and when they come up with something like this they do nothing but marvel at their own perceived cleverness.

If you’re sincere, you’re an idiot. So I hope you’re lying.

Remind me why it’s legal for a foreign government to fund election campaigns in the U.S. against it’s critics?

Because in this case there are people that will call you antisemitic for even noticing that it’s happening.

Why? We get to tell the truth and apparently deeply bother you all at once. Seems like a win-win for everyone but you , and you don’t matter.

Isn’t the Smartmatic lawsuit still in play? That one has the potential to be even bigger.

The unknown biases issue has know real solution. In this same example if instead of something simple like snow in the background, it turned out that the photographs of wolves were taken using zoom lenses (since photogs don’t want to get near wild animals) while the dog photos were closeup and the ML was really just training to recognize subtle photographic artifacts caused by the zoom lenses, this would be extremely difficult to detect let alone prove.

Because the bidding/bribing process is where a lot of grifters get rich. The construction contracts are where the others get rich. With your simpler less wasteful system all those worthless people might have to work for a living.

They are nearly normal already but that’s just a measure of how many people are obese.

The rubes he’s talking to with this fake tweet will accept what he’s saying uncritically like always. So unfortunately you’re right, there’s no point in asking.

Did it not come off?

Counterpoint - coffee and tea are both soup.

None but religious institutions lay claim to a divine insight into morality, though.

Throw the book at them.

It’s extremely unlikely that this can be pinned on “them”. People this rich never do their own dirty work and give orders in ways that are deniable. Only exceptions are control freaks and idiots.

Badalona sounds like how Spaniards pronounce Barcelona.

I don’t know that they really threaten the rule of law, since none of their bullshit ever actually works

This is the part that puzzled me - how can a movement like this continue to grow without any success stories whatsoever? It doesn’t make sense. Until I realized there’s a whole industry setup to drift these idiots out of their money. You can buy a sovcit passport, sovcit drivers licenses, all manner of stuff. None of it is worth as much as the paper it’s printed on, but they pay anyways.

It’s a whole industry designed to convince [stupid] people that if they just say the right combination of words, they get to selectively exist withing society and skirt rules.

Did those pidgeons forget they can fly?

I could totally see him agreeing to a debate format same as last time, but apparently he agreed to a debate format where your mic is cut off after your time is up? I never thought he would agree to that and Im not surprised he’s trying to get out of it.

Western countries employing Indian coders are generally looking for the cheapest coders they can find who speak passable English. All of that sounds like you got what you paid for.

I’m simply stating that not all school administrators are saints.

Literally no one is saying that . Simply by virtue of the fact that no group of any number of people will be all saints, whatever that means. So basically - cool story bro.

This is a supply chain integrity thing. They’re not alleging that the titanium wasn’t actually titanium (which as you said, would be noticed immediately).
