Also be sure to get them sooner rather than later, before the government decides they need to start burning books again.

I never said otherwise? I think you might have misread something. Edit: It was supposed to say "that HN" not the

This post had about 60 upvotes where the one that the comments go moved from was at something like 175. So it basically kills a posts ability to gain traction.

That's because Antifa never really existed but was a convenient boogeyman to keep people afraid and in line.

It's kind of weird the HN transfers comments on dupes but not upvotes

They're just going pull the "random leftists have individually boycotted people and media they don't agree with" (except they will call it cancel culture) card and do a false equivalency to people being removed for not being in line with the state.

Satanic Panic before that.

Which is completely different from when leftists go "we're 'cancelling' this through individual boycott" which a lot of people in this comment section seem to be missing or intentionally misrepresenting.

Sounds like North Korea

And the Waymo can't be a creep or sexually harass you.

PS nice name.

Good. Just wanted to make sure you weren't being too hard on yourself.

Ah the internet where you can make a lighthearted joke and immediately get um-actually'd by multiple people.

How many gun deaths per capita does Japan have compared to the USA?

I'd rather see those SVPs, PMs, and line managers be turned into AI.

I was referencing Canada where they implemented a carbon tax with a rebate. Facts didn't matter because the majority conservative media landscape just uncritically blasted out "carbon tax bad" for months/years on end. Most people were making money off of it but the perception that it was making things expensive (things were expensive from covid-era inflation) won out. It also didn't immediately solve global climate change so it was apparently bad policy too.

And the first person to come along screaming "I will cut the carbon tax that is making your life unaffordable!" will be elected

I think it misinterpreted what kind of tunneling you were cheering on.

Is this a moderated debate?

And that's not a false dichotomy? If I say which sport is more exhilarating to watch football or basketball? It's not a false dichotomy and it's weird if someone were to butt in with "What about baseball? Why didn't you mention baseball? What about soccer, what about tennis, this isn't a fair discussion!" I wasn't saying and didn't even imply those are the only options they just happen to be the ones we're talking about and it would be absurd to bring in the thousands of other sports to figure out which of the two is more exhilarating to spectate.

Tokyo has been considered a high tech utopia for a long time no one is surprised by its modernity (similar with Hong Kong) whereas China over the last decades has been portrayed as being little more than poor starving farmers and slave labor in worn out factories, and that juxtaposition is what makes it an interesting point of contrast.

Also I did see a barrage of articles praising Japan in the last few decades. There's literally multiple terms for westerners who are obsessed with Japan.

Also if it hasn't been unique to China at all (although I never said it was) why doesn't the country with a similar population and similar location (India) seem to have the same sort of reduction in poverty, economic prosperity, high tech buildings, and extensive modern transportation?

Because China and the US (implied and in lots of other comments on this post) were the topic of discussion? So my comment was framed in the relativity between the two.

Probably because when I glance at pictures of cities in China I see amazing architecture and urban design that isn't rivaled by anything I see in the US.

And when I glance at pictures of cities in the US I see fascist armed goons terrorizing people and crumbling infrastructure

It's far more likely we will discover aliens and then there will be nothing either of us can do about it, especially them since what we discover will be long dead.

It does generate a lot of shit...

mRNA medicine is like the futuristic technology I would read about in sci-fi it's seriously so cool and unfairly catches a bunch of hate because it was politically convenient to attack as a scapegoat.

When I see stories like this all I can think of is that rich people must really hate paying their blue collar workers market value and want to flood the market to lower their wages and bargaining ability. Especially when I hear how hard it is to actually get a proper blue collar job (that isn't just a manual labor with a bit of carpentry job paying below a living wage) and be apprenticed in it from my blue collar friends.

Streaming services surprised that customers left them like they left cable TV for them once they turned into cable TV.
