For sure. This incident is really freaking messed up.
Agreed. In fact, it is proper journalism to write only demonstrated facts in early versions of articles. If they wrote that “SS rushes him off...
Huh, this is interesting, as I recall him here as rivergator when I first visited TH circa 20 years ago. If you are right, you must be reaching...
Again I think you’ve taken the conclusion for granted. When river suggested that this was more about the act than the person, this can only be...
I get what you are saying gaterz. Of course we must take history into account. We should also take our own beliefs into account. E.g. It would...
I meant that river could be posting to further his argument in this thread. You give yourself the benefit of the doubt. Why assume only the worst...
I think here lies a causality of our current us vs them mentality. Your posting simply indicates your effort to bolster your argument, but river’s...
You’re right that either the system works, or it doesn’t. And if Trump got elected at this point, I’m actually not sure which one it would be. We...
I realize this feels like a review 1,000 days too late, but we finally watched Oppenheimer. It was fantastic. The acting, the storytelling, the...

So much good stuff here, Wes. You’ve clearly thought about the problem a lot. I’ll start with your biggest question: how can we tell if a failed...
Oh I agree with this. The claim is that Biden and the left are ignoring China, but I’m not really sure what we’re supposed to be doing to them....
You know, it is funny that each side even has its own separate country that it’s fixated on.
exiled explained very well the issue above, but I’ll do my part with an analogy: You own a china shop and are worried about a bull coming in to...
Very good and depressing article. Bill Barr’s words aptly describe what may be the one constant with Trump: "He will always put his own interest...
Indeed there is never going to be a logically ironclad definition of truth or goodness. I do think you are being a bit hard on scientific facts...
I get your connection to Trump here, but the freedom to offend is a critical freedom. Without it, there can be no freedom of speech.
To be honest, this kind of signaling of tribal superiority is among my least favorite of the modern political trends, but if we accept this is...
As you know, I’m usually quite ready to see good faith on both sides, but I don’t see it here. No business owner is really going to move their...
