Can you explain what you mean by that? Um….the US is a shit show right now. I’m hoping European countries might start taking in US citizens on asylum visas. It’s getting bad.

The US definitely has some problems unique to the Western World and it is actually VERY concerning to many people in other western countries. A few examples: anti-…[Read more]

Yeah I really enjoyed the jurisprudence seminar during my bachelor. The difference between continental and anglo-saxon legal thought in particular was VERY interesting.

Enco is absolutely relentless in sticking his heels in and standing by a stupid point. Thank you for reminding us Enco of a skill none of us would like to have. Is conceding even a mundane point outside of your abilities?

Mexico definitely has serious problems to deal with. So does the US. I felt safer in Lebanon and Iran than I did in Newark and Detroit. I’d rather walk down the streets of Guadalajara than be a black person in a traffic stop by a US policeman.

But all too often mentioning race is tinged with prejudice.…[Read more]

Anyhow, if you folks want to live in some control-freak Stepford Utopia in some place like Sim City, Second Life, Civilization, Metaverse, or some other “dream-in-every-home” program or app, have at it.

Enco must be a bot. There is no way an intelligent person would stoop to such ridiculous nonsensical stupidity. Enco…come down to Earth.

In fact…Canada, the EU and many other cou tries have hate speech laws and media regulations which apply to Twitter. Twitter can only partially get around these. While Canada might not have much muscle, the EU does and will definitely cripplingly fine or even block a site that breaks it’s laws. It has heavily fined large media companies in the…[Read more]

Unseen, two things:

Going from a corporation where a board, elected by multiple shareholders to ownership by one person is obviously a concentration of great power and wealth into the hands of one person. While he isn’t monopolising the market, he is definitely acquiring considerable power and potential wealth. Having said that, my discussion of…[Read more]
