There's a difference between content moderation and censorship. Not to mention shaping user experience. For example, If a site has a mechanism where after X number of downvotes by users, your comment is hidden, that's not censorsh

I mean, that's should be a reasonable understanding for most people. Sure, there are companies out there I don't support because I don't like what they do. But there are others with opinions I disagree with, but I still patro

How many psycogenic illnesses are known to cause physical damage?

But a psycological cause wouldnt result in the damage found on the victims, right? Didn't one doctor who examined some of these people describe damage that looked like "a concussion without a concussion"? I.e. damage to the b

Oh look, another conspiracy theory! That didn't take long. Does this one tie John in with Epstein too, like another comment's conspiracy theory does?

Perhaps classes on ability necessary to the sport should be the only way to go?

Why wouldn't people support transgendered people able to be the gender they wish and being able to do so in all possible aspects? Be they transwomen wanting to play female sports, or transmen wanting to play male sports (which you oddl

I don't know the history of all sports, but the few tidbits I know all point to sex/gender separation as being initially based on beliefs that women were inferior to men. From physical sports to mental ones like chess, sex separat

What do you mean the ulnar "side"? The ulnar nerve controls several fingers on each hand. The middle and ring. iirc. I started getting that tingling and numbness in my fingers, and it kept getting worse and worse until one day on

"It doesn't guarantee mutual annihilation at all. We've already used nuclear weapons" That's a weird thing to say. When was the last time we used them, during a war? Back before any other power had them. Literally t

I read sci-fi. The idea that you only "write what you are/know" is laughable. Sure, if you write a book with such offensive ideas about another culture or race, you're a terrible person. But if you research, interview, t

This happened to me with audible. They didn't have the cancel subscription on the app. Had to hunt for it on the site. Was asked if i was suuuuuuure i wanted to leave, 3 separate times before it canceled. Definitely not thinking of doi
