lol, I wonder how they staff “70-ish pizzerias per person”. That’s one hell of a short-staffed environment! 1/70th of an employee per shop!

Denver seems pretty big… how much bigger were you wanting?

Two weeks! What do you do, such that you’re meeting new people so frequently? I don’t think I’ve met anyone new in years!

Who wrote this? I’m supposed to be upset that a bunch of big websites are lower on Google results? Why should anyone besides their shareholders care?

Edit: Oh, he co-founded the website hosting this article. So he does indeed have a vested personal interest.

I’m not sure ksp is popular/broad-based enough to generate much of an uproar. I’m unhappy about it, but most people just see another headline.

So… why are the guards not being arrested for child endangerment? Why is this a lawsuit and not a criminal matter?

If I’m honest, I don’t really understand what you’re saying. It sounds like he’s embarrassed/upset after trying to be helpful and do a good job and having it thrown back in his face. And your response seems to be “well, you’re a man so I see her point”? That’s so far out of left field that I honestly don’t know how to respond.

I think there’s a disconnect here. You’re saying that every state uses violence to maintain their rule/internal stability, which is true. But you’re responding in a thread that’s pointing out how weird it is to support LGBT rights on the one hand and support Russia and China on the other, where same-sex couples are not treated equally under the law. So I’m not asking “why are you ok with state-monopolized force”. I’m asking “why are you ok with these particular states”.

The fact that it’s a “political extremist forum” is actually a pretty compelling argument for defederation.

Forgive me if I’m over-simplifying your position, but did you just say “Who cares if they’re authoritarian, as long as they’re my kind of authoritarian”?

That’s nonsense - bad ideologies take hold in “normal” people all the time! I’m sure we all have that one uncle who was taken in by all the Q-anon talk, or that one friend who ended up joining a cult.
