  • The Sookie Stackhouse books and True Blood show explore this very idea. They've got artificial blood vampires can order at a bar that imitates various blood types. There's a bit where a server grabs the wrong type on purpose because she hates vampires.

  • Doubtful we'll see a powerful head of state call for such an act. More likely, we'll see some lone wolf who gets tied to a nation that immediately disavows them.

  • The Wyden story was about one specific case. Not the entirety of the files.

  • Historically, the demographic most likely to sexually assault children is straight men.

    Does that mean we should kill all the straight men?

  • Dump will only do so if he thinks it will benefit him, which he may not

  • Whataboutism is a lateral move. What I suggested was a zoom-out.

  • Not everyone has the privilege to choose where they move.

  • The idea of using your religion as an excuse to kill people is not exclusive to Islam. There are actually quite a few instances in the christian bible where people kill due to religion.

    If you actually want to get away from religious killing, as a society, we must denounce religion as a whole. Blaming one religion is just stirring the pot.

  • No.

    Musk has plenty of places to go. He could spend the rest of his life in Europe/Australia/Asia and be fine.

    The humanitarian concerns surrounding deportation don't apply to him. He won't be homeless. He won't be separated from family. He certainly won't be roughed up by masked goons.

    I have a principled stance and it doesn't apply to him because he is not in danger of losing his civil rights.

  • Tons of reasons to research this. For example: can I get person x arrested for what they did to me/my sibling

  • Insecurity. "Yep I've still got it!"

  • You think he actually sat through all of these? I'd be shocked if he made it to the end of Crouching Tiger or Spirited Away

  • There's more than one word that starts with P, you know

  • See, if this kind of tactic had some sort of compelling penalty, maybe we'd see it less often

  • Highways don't have crosswalks, and drivers can expect to have very few stoplights (compared to freeways, which should have exactly 0 stoplights or pedestrians whatsoever).

    Streets can have frequent crosswalks and stoplights.

    Sooo having a street between hotels and a beach would be no biggie, since guests could safely cross it on foot, at a crosswalk.

    But with a highway there, you cannot safely cross on foot. No crosswalks. Or if there's something that looks like a crosswalk, it sure wouldn't feel safe to cross it.

  • ... so better to give up? What's your solution

  • Your sons are speaking from their experience, which may not be the same as yours.

  • By the time we run out of land we'll all be long gone, and there will be complementary solutions.
