Okay, Gervais might be something of a hypocrite, but he’s not wrong about anyone in attendance.

Unfortunately, there’s no negotiating with Iran. Remember this is a country where people march in the streets shouting “Death to America”. No reasonable person wishes death upon another. While the west has certainly contributed to conflict in the middle east, especially with that unjust war in Iraq, there’s no…

No offense to io9 or the writers here, but: you guys kinda had a strong hand in stirring the pot on this one.

I’m guessing that for you billionaire = criminal

So Russia cheats, and likely hasn’t honored it for years, and we respond with a missile test, and you say we are all worse off for it because we show our strength?

Sure, makes sense. Putin will definitely respond with fear when we send him a strongly worded letter indicating he needs to stop cheating.

The only reason…

Oof, you spend 40% of the national budget on social services and health care and they’re both still awful and inadequate?

But none of those facts fit this websites left-focused agenda, so they are not relevant.

First, you left out the part where parts of the law have already been blocked because they would have put 70,000 truck drivers who owned their own trucks out of work.

Let’s be honest here, they’re pieces of shit as well. 

Bahahaha..Yeah, we tried equalizing shit - did you never hear of affirmative action? You know what that did? A whole lot of black people failing out of colleges they weren’t prepared or capable to handle. It’s not going to happen, it’s never going to happen, and nobody with half a brain thinks it will. Even the…

Reparation for slavery will never happen and shouldn’t happen anyway.

Holy shit you are a tired caricature of a woke tool. “I SHOULD FEEL GUILTY!” Jesus Christ, who are you trying to impress?

It’s not a feature of modern “capitalism,” it’s a feature of modern market economies. “Capitalism” is merely the term describing an economic philosophy where a desire for profit drives production. Economists, historians, and political scientists have decided to start naming “flavors” of that concept based on how much…

“Are you saying that as a white British man I shouldn’t feel guilty for what my country and race has done thorought history to marginalised and native peoples?”

This is what I'm seeing lately. A bunch of people of first world countries falling in love with communism. I'm not saying socialism because socialism can be good and many countries practice some of it (social security is one of these things). However communism will never work. On paper it's awesome but human nature is…

Nobody who has suffered under Communism, or you know, has read a history book, thinks Communism is a good thing. It’s just old burnt out hippies, dumb Millennials who think they’re oppressed, and actual violent revolutionaries who think Communism works. Ask the ghosts of 100 million people who died under its heel in…

I’m in my mid 30s in Eastern Europe and having partly lived in what comes out of those “open minded” books you suggest, and having seen my family (both parents and grandparents) being the victim of oppression , secret police state, lack of basic resources and having their ownership destroyed for the “good of the…

Marx and Engels are hugely problematic, though.

Really? I'm from the south and she seemed super duper on point, then again I'm also from Raleigh so maybe she's just super duper Raleighesque.

I disagree, a real southern mama keeps a certain level of decor when she knows she's in public.
