iterationxon Starbucks to Provide Free College Education to Thousands of Workers

The government is not under "our" control. That's a naive and stupid fantasy.

Also your neck is not meant to really look up for very long periods of time.

iterationxon Change `master` branch into `primary`

Let's focus on reducing the acceptable words in the English language! Take false moral high ground! Then tell everyone they are oppressive moral reprobates! If everyone feels bad about being male or white (or both!) then surely no one will notice that the true oppressor is centralized power structures! IngSoc Double Plus Good! Choco-Rations are Up Today AND I'm FEELING FINE.

iterationxon “Check Your Privilege” is Actually Just a Lousy Argument

lol. you're not too smart.

iterationxon “Check Your Privilege” is Actually Just a Lousy Argument

The author of "“Why I’ll Never Apologize for my White Male Privilege.” is Jewish and the anti-white rhetoric from the Left isn't actually targeted at Jews, it is targeted at white males.

Evil white males especially Christians that oppress everybody all the time that have no culture and are non-contributing zeros. I think we've all gotten the memo.

iterationxon Let’s Keep the Internet Dumb

The only tool of the common man against centralized monopolies seems to be to innovate faster than the monopoly power can centralize.

I think the only hope for the free Internet is some kind of p2p wireless mesh network or other mechanism to circumvent Comcast altogether. Comcast and Monsanto are untouchable. (Thinking about Monsanto because of some lame GMO prop I heard on NPR this morning)

iterationxon The race to contain West Africa's Ebola outbreak

The doctors in Minnesota are still saying that the virus that this person was infected with was “Lassa fever” a different form of Hemorrhagic fever than Ebola, but given the area of the country that the passenger traveled from, many believe that this is a case of Ebola.

iterationxon Don't Ban “Bossy”

You missed the point of the article with your pointless nitpicking, so here it is, try again...

That’s because second wave feminism is not about protecting women’s rights, it’s about stirring up a contrived gender war and impugning western culture, the middle class and the family unit as the source of all sexism and oppression, thereby making women more dependent on the government and hiding the true source of all oppression – the state.

iterationxon Don't Ban “Bossy”

While feminists were busy telling the world about the dire need to ban the word “bossy,” the Iraqi parliament was considering the implementation of a new law that would legalize rape, prohibit women leaving home without the permission of their husband, and legalize marriage for 9-year-olds.

“If passed, the law will apply to Iraq’s Shia Muslims, the majority of the population. Provisions include prohibiting Muslim men from marrying non-Muslim women, legalising rape inside marriage by declaring that a husband has a right to sex regardless of consent, and prohibiting women from leaving the house without their husband’s permission,” reports Breitbart.com. The law, which has been denounced by Human Rights Watch as a violation of the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW), would also lower the age of marriage to nine years old for girls and 15 for boys. Despite the fact that the law represents an egregious assault on women’s rights and wouldn’t look out of place in the stone age, you probably didn’t hear about it because self-proclaimed feminists were too busy concentrating on more pressing atrocities being inflicted upon women – such as people using the word “bossy”. http://www.infowars.com/new-iraqi-law-legalizes-rape-feminis...
