oh wow that is so TWISTED 

Oh for fuck’s sake 

Of course you could look at polling data to see that this is complete bullshit but I’m sure it’s nice to imagine. 

All he said is that automation has introduced risks - the rest of your fake quote is editorializing. This is a very common perspective

yes lol @neoliberal its so funny just like the dumb orange man 

Or not wasting my time on this neoliberal hellhole of a site where you literally can’t say anything about Trump that isn’t the type of sad #resistance humor my boomer mom would laugh at. 

I think the supposed issue with the 737 max is it’s a lot more complicated to disable the system that causes these sudden corrections - which isn’t autopilot but another system that keeps the plane stable despite new elements of its design (intended to increase fuel efficiency) that reduce stability.

He actually didn’t say that “planes are too sophisticated and they need to cut back on the advancements because they’re causing more and more accidents.”

Or maybe he’s talking about legitimate concerns people have

This is the only ungreyed critical post they’ve left up on this article. I had one with a ton of replies and a bunch of stars that actually can’t be found. Seems like they’re a little sensitive over in the Deadspin bullpen:

Ok so what metric do you propose we use since you acknowledged traffic reporting is effectively useless and don’t see price as indicative of value either?

That’s a nice source you provided to disprove my point 

What point do you think I’m trying to make beyond the fact that Deadspin has repositioned itself as an unconventional progressive voice in sports media? Does the Washington Post article disprove that point? 

It’s fun to imagine that everyone you disagree with on the internet is a acist/sexist/homophobe

Barstool for sure wasn’t included in their “sports” criteria whatever it was because they should be right around Deadspin’s level just based on a quick perusal of Alexa and Similarweb.

With that said, third-party traffic estimators are not exactly the #1 measure of an online property’s value. I don’t think anyone…

Holy shit that’s a good burn 

I didn’t say Drew inserted identity politics into this. I said that identity politics has been inserted into the editorial strategy of this entire site, which is not exactly a secret. 

cool cool cool 

What did you think I was wrong about? Their board is profit-oriented and GMG isn’t driving enough revenue. The “reading public” are not their shareholders - this isn’t a non-profit.
