  • Everyone is free to stop posting if they start walking into a conversation that is deep enough to require references: the person above did not.

    Additionally, shooting the shit where you’re all talking bollocks is fine. You tell them they’re a dumbass but you don’t demand references because they’re not posting it in public. But, if they bought a billboard to say something unverified and potentially wrong, I’d demand to know what their sources are.

    The internet, by its nature, (and this forum, specifically) is not private, and is not afforded the luxuries of private indiscretion.

    This is reading like a critique of the visa worker.

    “Business” has normalized this adversarial mindset that employers should try to pay their workers as little as possible. But that doesn’t absolve employers of taking advantage of globalism to find someone whose circumstances fit the pittance they’re willing to part with.





  • If you don’t want to do research to support your claims, don’t make statements of fact that require verifiable claims.

    People feeling free to post whatever fictional bullshit they’ve half-remembered is how we started down this path of “post-truth” nonsense. That’s wanting to be “right” without putting in the effort to make sure you are right.
