Definitely. The world was so quick to sanction Russia for its invasion, but the US faces no consequences for its actions…

Idk about body shaming, maybe “my dick” wasn’t a warranted response to begin with?

Postponed for « five days », just until markets close next Friday. This is all just one big grift.

Yeah, I think that’s what OP is alluding to. I don’t think pure BSDs like Free or Open have much driver support for Apple hardware. It’s already enough of a problem with Linux support.

You saying something carries a potential death penalty and the articles writing he DEMANDS DEATH PENALTY do not seem to me like the same thing. Blind to context or unbiased, you choose how to call it.

I don’t think you’re splitting hair; you’re being consistent in your values, and journalistic integrity matters more to you than having your biais confirmed.

It doesn’t matter whether the target of this article is the best person in the world or the worst person in the world, their words are not being reported accurately.

I loathe everything Donald Trump stands for, but that doesn’t mean it’s okay to misrepresent what he says like that for engagement. There are more than enough appalling things the man does and says on a daily basis to not go that low.

Like someone above wrote, I don’t think daily beast articles have their place here.

Don’t get me wrong, billionaires are definitely sociopaths. But our society, instead of giving them the treatment they deserve (institutionalisation and a therapy to develop empathy would be a good start) rewards them instead with power and influence.

I see many people cluelessly asking why it seems like billionaires are all sociopaths. That’s because society rewards it and selects for it, and that’s what we need to change first and foremost.

To borrow an image from the Scorpion and the Frog, if you’re a frog and you’re taking scorpions on your back, it’s nonsensical to hate the scorpions for stinging you, that’s in their nature. Instead, we should focus on not taking scorpions on our back, that is, not putting sociopaths in positions of power and authority.

Maybe if our system didn’t allow mere individuals to collect a net worth equivalent to small countries…? Hate the game, not the players. Billionaires should not even exist in the first place.
