FBI crime stats are a great source. For example, of murders in 2019, "Black or African American" accounted for 51% of murderers of known race (despite just 13.4% of the general population being black). https://ucr.fbi.

Also you're unlikely to see the owner, they certainly won't be inside with you, you can leave any time, you're likely to be with others, and they can't change your location. Contrast that with an intoxicated young woman

There are an awful lot of "normal people" who want an ethnically homogeneous, harmonious home for their children, while those advocating abortion, transsexuality, homosexuality, childhood sex education, etc are the epitome of evil

I hope this is a wry joke. Recently we've seen DNS providers, CDNs, payment gateways, and even banks shut down services for wrong-thinkers. Accelerationists are cheering these actions. That should tell you all you need to know about th

Sadly, that's quite common. Don't be obtuse. This has nothing to do with the 'rich' part. I wonder if you would make the same disparaging comment now that you know Ackman is not White: "yet-another-rich-jewish-guy..

But he's not even ethnically White. And it wouldn't justify your subtly racist jab at White people anyway. No.

The fact that Telegram isn't enthusiastically censoring everyone who even looks like they might have the wrong opinion is what makes it such a unique treasure. Feature, not bug.

It's not 1% of them though. It's 0%. None of them are getting off the couch to kill anyone because their video game release is delayed. It's an expression of frustration, and we all know that. Unfortunately in today's wo

It's invaluable if you are involved in grey/black market trade. I was briefly involved in a legal-yet-taboo industry years ago, and being able to instantly receive private payments from people on the other side of the world withou

“Nobody cares, because of who is affected” My respect to the author for this careful and courageous article. Writing about the problems affecting working class white men in today's climate might warrant censure in some circles. To the

>Could we maybe avoid putting others at risk? I agree. Let's not inject people with experimental vaccines rushed to market under significant political pressure. Let's not pressure strangers' decisions either way. Far more

Being on the periphery of groups you'd likely describe as "conspiracy theorists", practically all of this is strawmanning. This has become more of a political issue than a scientific issue. I saw a video of a doctor(?) stream

The risks far outweigh the rewards. We're deliberately injecting ourselves with foreign genetic material that hijacks our cells' machinery to produce viral proteins by design. For my consent, I don't have anywhere near enough

The stereotypical conspiracy theorist hides away at home with tin foil head-coverings to keep the mysterious airborne pathogens away. Now, that's "normal people", while "conspiracy theorists" are those carrying on u

There is absolutely 0% chance I'll be letting that anywhere near my family. And I was a biomedical scientist formerly. Over my dead body (one way or another).

There's a clever little meme floating about showing a perfectly normal, happy, healthy, unmasked family with the caption "conspiracy theorists" and then in the adjacent panel a visibly paranoid person with a mask and face s

>We're just willing to no longer investigate the cause of this sudden jump in suicides, because we can simply write it off as "normal" loneliness? That's quite a leap there. I understand there are many societal proble

Is that really an insidious assumption to you, or are you trying too hard to be gender-blind? I've been around for a while now, and it's an indisputable fact in my mind that men cope far better with loneliness than women. From see
