Bingo.

I delete any mail from Airbnb, Uber, etc that isn't a receipt for a service they provide.

As do most people.

I don't read corporate newsletters from services I use twice a year, do you?

Me neither, I had three settings I needed to "update" to prevent my image from being circulated without my approval.

Bad form, Airbnb.

Also, what an amazing power to give to someone as a reward for their violence.

What about Google's use of "Smart Lock" via bluetooth to secure each sign on attempt with Google Advanced Protection?

What is the case against using a bluetooth-linked 2fa from your phone the way Google Advanced Security does?

They sold the digital equivalent of crack for so long, they never had to learn marketing.

> Literally anything can lead to violence.

Literally anything and lead to anything, that's not an argument it's a distraction.

> How about stopping with the censorship

For the 1,000,000th time, private company cleaning up garbage content its "censorship". Only governments engage in censorship. Every private business has the ability to clean up their space without needed to ask permission.

You obviously don't follow the President on Twitter, or have any idea of the scope of "revolutionary" private groups on Facebook.

That's a funny way of saying the Soviet Union could no longer imprison have of Europe, and their subjects were set free.

OP's point is that protests happen in rural areas outside the central government's control. They are very much not allowed and usually crushed when found.

> They absolutely are allowed.

So you and I can go to tiananmen square tomorrow for a healthy protest and drum circle?

Speech that leads to violence, how about starting with that?

> Sounds like Verizon's Facebook advertising spend is losing value because of COVID-19, so they're using this a way to redirect focus away from the negative impact on their business.

My first thought on all these "boycotts". Are we cynical or is there any proof of this?

They aren't allowed, is the point. You can be disappeared for speaking against Xi. Any comparison is a false one.

Good points. It maybe would have deterred Russia from invading at all, but that's debatable.

Considering the article it looks like they know either way.

Haha.

It's not perfect, but I got HL Alyx running via the cloud with no local hardware.

> Stop being contrarian for the sake of it .

That would eliminate the need for this website almost entirely.

Yes my friend who is black who lives in a big house in a rich area gets pulled over by the police at least once a month and harassed.

Her upbringing and class doesn't matter.

This is common: https://www.cnn.com/2015/04/02/us/chris-rock-pulled-over-pol...

Nothing about his political denial of science is out of context. If the video was 30 min of him denying climate change or 3, that doesn't change anything.

If a man says the earth is flat i'm not going to waste any time listening to what his other opinions are.

I had never heard of this guy before so I gave him a chance, turns out he's just another in a long line of contrarian for the sake of being contrarian conservatives.

Nothing of value here.

I mean no offense by this, but the jewish experience in America doesn't compare to the black experience. In 99% of cases you are just another white person.

Living in a place obligates you to at least try and fit in. Working in a place for 1-2 years, I fully understand why people don't bother.

I don't think your German friend sees his current living situation as anything other than temporary.

I've made the simple statement that the US is farther along fighting racism than most of Europe and was downvoted for it.

There are places in Europe (mostly southern) where racism isn't even discouraged, still.

America draws the headlines because of it's violence, but it's progress on integration put Europe to shame. Not to say that both places have a lot of work to do, they do.

Van Jones was right (even the best intentioned are conditioned by forces beyond their control), and you added the word "irredeemable". No one said there isn't a fix. Culture racism is learned, it can be unlearned.

contrarian =/ smart. Sometimes you are objecting for the sake of objecting.

Which she is certainly able to speak about.
