I also liked this article but then remembered the F-35 and have a super hard time thinking we need more investment. Blame the bureaucrats all you want (I'm with you), but I'm no longer sure we even know how make the right things.

which party do I vote for if I want to stop US imperialism? which party do I vote for if I want MFA? Its not the Republicans, and its definitely not the Democrats.

Its no conspiracy theory to say the duopoly shuts down a lot of issues from being ever being addressed

Great point, we should continue to make people sleep on the street

Yeah thats me, I don't care about 'intent' as much as 'outcome'

All the well meaning in the world doesn't mean shit if you're creating hostility or demeaning others (that is not commentary on RMS, just in general)

my conservative christian school told us that holding hands is as bad as pre-marital sex because it was the first step towards fornication.

that place was terrible

Uh Scott also says he believes poverty is not a result of exploitation but culture or genetics soooooo

absolutely not, Torba just wants to profit from neo-nazis

I agree and wanted to add that they also scare and radicalize good people. I have friends and family in rural areas who think a mob of BLM and Antifa are going to show up and destroy a strip mall based on apocalyptic NRA propaganda.

I personally like guns but would prefer this organization didn’t exist at all.

I read the whole thing and i'm sorry, but a journalist from the NYT complaining about being misrepresented?

lol get that shit out of here

Well my hometown now has a white nationalist militia that wasn’t there 4 years ago. I guess these are just patriots in your book?

dude just buy an android.

I really don't understand all this hyperbole on this subject. Somehow everyone on HN decided to become democratic socialist only when it pertains to App Store commissions lmao

This response is mis-characterization and is acting in bad faith, no one in this thread is asking for forced demonstrating. That's not actually a thing that's happening.

Some of my family is conservative and extremely racist towards Mexicans & Blacks, and are 100% fine alienating a lot of us out of allegiance to trump.

I’m jealous of you and angry at the rise of unabashed white supremacy in my circles

my gut says this style of application lends itself to less abuse by trackers and surveillance tech than a general purpose browser, but i could just be naive.

why should basic government services be profitable?

Look I don't Dang either.

I feel like he nukes all my class war against the rich posts, but you have to realize I have personally accused of him fostering a white nationalist site for promoting assholes like you and also for hiding all my pro-communist comments.

So only one of us can be right, is dang a commie or nationalist?....or maybe everyone is complex and not entirely composed of a single ideology and also he was chosen to curate this website and that will ultimately anger both of us?

Anyway, here's the tea :https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23400445

You know they banned leftist subs too, but as always with free-speachers, those never count.

Like where were you guys when Arkansas literally banned Howard Zinn? What about when South Carolina banned the words 'climate change'?

Sorry but you all just don't come across consistent enough to be taken seriously.

its very possible the study can be wrong and HCQ still isn't an effective treatment, not sure you should read this news as an endorsement

congrats on building a breeding ground for white nationalism

This can’t be serious:

“ It emerged from stealth mode in late 2017 and was linked to far right/alt-right supporters such as Chuck Johnson, Mike Cernovich, Douglass Mackey, and Paul Nehlen.[8]

Clearview AI received investments from Peter Thiel”

Chuck Johnson is the Holocaust denier who shits his pants in public and Cernovich is the pizzagate MRA right? Wtf

Can anyone explain why they're downvoting this?

I know anecdotally My employer constantly gets in trouble during earnings calls from shareholders for doing anything remotely environmentally responsible because it impacts margins. It's pretty clear capital has no intention of being ethical at the cost of profit

I was a paid subscriber for years until he started saying shit like “actually, the US giving employers control over access to healthcare is good because they can force people to work harder” and “it’s bad for China to jail ethnic populations but ok for the US because they’re good guys”.

I realized that for how insanely smart he is in analyzing business plans he ultimately worships the rich and despises collective power.

I now HN loves that kind of rhetoric but yeah, I’m not really a fan anymore.

Because putting a certain race in literal concentration camps isn’t fascism but just different opinions.

I don’t understand this joke, why is it funny?

How come you conclude the issue was inexperience & bad management but made sure to frame it as women & poc vs. white men?

Not a super cool way to add to discourse.

It’s so crazy to me how many people on here assume that whatever the market determines must be fundamentally morally correct in all situations. Like the premise is always how come all these poor people chose NOT to be successful?

It’s a stupid human invention, not a god.

I guess we know which side you're on

This is incredibly dumb, I’m so sick of qanon dorks

I'm pretty sure the people getting tear gassed over globalization at the G8 were against capital leveraging international workers to destroy domestic labor power and the ones getting tear gassed recently are fighting against policies targeting immigrant and refugee communities. It seems pretty consistent to want to protect workers and also fight xenophobia.

Just to be clear; members of the party controlling all 3 branches of government and putting children in internment camps is mad about not getting an icon from a website. Got it.
