I think that they didn't just prove that 80% of Americans are scientifically illiterate; we sort of knew that already and Somin gives a competent defense of it. What they really proved is that it is easy to manipulate people who don't know jack about a topic to make them believe whatever the hell you want to believe…

I have licked a guinea pig's mineral wheel once (very recently actually) but that's as far as I've gone

You both just shut your dirty whore mouths right there.

If your password is Blink182 you deserve worse than being hacked.

Some POC will tell you that white allyship is not needed, but it is. If we want society to progress, members of the majority and minority have to work together to get towards that point.

This post represents SO many of the things that are wrong with us today, and it just makes me sad and angry. Seriously, PLEASE spend more energy on more productive things..? …

What kills me is the irony of Brodeur joining the Foil Hat society, then claiming he was defamed.

Considering how much of an air-head Lawrence's character was, wouldn't it be reasonable to assume that she was misrepresenting what she read in the article?

Hey whatever. I don't have an iPhone but I am pro-Apple Pay because that will expand the number of places that I can use Google Wallet, and competition is good! The problem here is that retailers are trying to throw their weight around to give a technologically inferior product a HUGE advantage because they want money…
