  1. 2A advocates conveniently omit the "well regulated Militia" clause that it begins with. Sure there's the Supreme Court decision declaring it an individual right, but SC decisions can overturn itself like it's done over 300 times before. Fact remains Congress and States can legally impose standards on proper possession and usage should it decide to regulate more well. And if how the Founding Fathers wanted it is the defense, remember they were largely "theistic rationalists" who prioritized the rationalism part and avoided arguments based on religious dogmas, as well as not overly excited to maintain slavery as more than a means to maintain their status and influence lacking other pre-industrial options. As members of the Age of Enlightenment, the FF would likely have been open to modifications of their worldview to harmonize with the evolution of technology and expansion of human knowledge.

  4. He sounds like he has more faith in China than Chinese people themselves. I was just there, I've heard directly their less rosy outlook once they realized I was an English-speaking foreigner and not a potential Party informant.

  6. Dams are deathtraps, both ecologically to the river on both sides and to the budgets required to build and maintain them properly. Cisterns are safer.

  7. Corporations see more profit from outrage than objectivity. Sadly our own laws demand that their top priority is to gain dollars, the act of which rewards sociopathic behaviors.

  8. What's really maddening is that the oil companies knew it'd be uneconomical to recycle most plastics this whole time, which led to them inventing the whole "recycling" numbering system.

  9. Because they're talking heads we don't have to watch because the conversation itself is the substantial part?

  10. Self-censoring to keep your friends and family off the government hit list is exactly what the Party wants you to do. But the way modern China's vague and conflicting "laws" are enforced though still doesn't guarantee protection from police harassment and detention, so it's ultimately self-defeating to stay quiet.
