That we know of, just as we "Knew" these vaccines would effectively prevent transmissions and wouldn't have side effects.

I want to be able to date without the risk of HIV, seems we have to abolish gay bars and make homsexuality itself a crime.

Perhaps it would be better for me to say ostensibly there to build browsers (and other software). In response to the manifesto I'll ask how recent that manifesto and mission statement is? Surely they weren't always a politics fir

Some in the world are capable of working without being emotionally incapacitated by the thought that those they work with don't agree with all that they believe in. Mozilla is there to build browsers. Politics should have been left at

Agreed. This is the paragraph that Barrin92 is trying to missrepresent. > Let me be clear: The horror of Mao’s China was singular. I am not making a comparison to the death and destruction it caused or to the severity of the punishment t

You're right it isn't different, it was a stupid idea with firewalls and it's a stupid idea with chess sets.

Ah yes a progressive claim backed up by psychology papers. A field currently drowning in a reproducibility crisis, and a group who believe that lying and slander is not only okay but should be actively utilised in every goal they pursue. Y

That's fair; apologies. I'm too late to edit it now but if some passing mods see it and is able to alter please do so.

It's honestly getting creepy at this point. Throughout this entire comment tree starting from its base you have multiple long term HN users all consciously going out of their way to constructs lies in the pursuit of defaming this man.

Don't get me wrong, you're absolutely right about the tribalism that affects all sides in this situation we're in.

Oh isn't that convenient. The definitely racist memo full of racism has so much in it that it is somehow completely impossible to quote any section at all that contains it. > And beyond that, it's a moot point, because even if

Well not completely but yes more or less. Look at this comment collection surrounding Damore. The one thing that unifies the group defending the firing is that they are all willing to lie to do so and are doing it in pursuit of socially d

Any proof of this claim?

Quite probably. They're welcome to disagree about the reality we are literally discussing right now, just as there were no doubt members that disagreed with the realities outlined in the letter, and in taking part helped cause the sit

Looks like the wired analysis and your own views can be summarised as "we don't understand everything about psychology", and that "biological differences barely matter, it largely comes down to nurture instead of nature.

I don't really get what you're arguing? This seems to be just semantics on a 3rd party comment on a forum. > The text preemptively claims that people will reject it because they are too politically correct. The text was right.

A claim you have both proof of and a link to the "original" that you will surely provide.

No you don't get to brush off actual armed establishment of an autonomous zone with "benign intention". That is the equivalent of mass-hostage taking and the beginnings of a coup; exactly as "benign" in intention a

You've already attempted to misslead on this; cite your sources. And "we'll never know" isn't good enough. Again especially from someone caught lying.
