I'm sorry but I'm not really sure I understand what your point is. He pointed out what he believes to be a failing system that's increasing racial and gender based tension rather than alleviating it. Are you saying that airing out your frustrations about a system you believe is doing harm in a well researched critique

"Go ahead and try this at your place of employment. Tell us how that works out for you."
60 years ago, people were saying the same thing when others were saying "maybe we should let black people work here." "You'll get in trouble" is not an excuse to avoid doing the right thing. The argument shouldn't be about whether

It certainly got people talking about the bad ideas that the church had succumbed to, at least as Martin Luther saw them.

You don't have to. But then YOU broke up the band. Not Trump.

The guy is a senior engineer at Google, or at least was until this. It's not likely this was done out of a sense of career advancement or that he took up work time to do this.

"Is a 10-page manifesto emailed to hundreds of people really the best way to have a discussion about ideas?"

what the hell are you talking about? Google has a SEVERE left-wing bias, to the point where left-leaning moderates are worried they might soon be demonetized out of existence on Youtube.

Oh yes…but we're the tolerant ones, right?

It doesn't read to me like Trump is tearing Journey apart. It sounds like a bandmate (Schon) that thinks he can foist his political opinions on his friends is tearing the group apart. He doesn't have to like Trump, and he's allowed to talk about how much he hates him, but his bandmates are under no obligation to hate

The article clearly states that all his graphs and references were intentionally removed by Gizmodo. You can't blame the author of the "screed" if some company gets ahold of his work and then removes all the facts and figures from it.

Thiel, nor any other billionaire, didn't make an appearance until halfway through the movie. The movie up until the point was about the Hulk Hogan lawsuit as a whole. My point is that in the context of the movie, it introduces Thiel for seemingly no reason. The "documentary" can't seem to decide if it's subject is the

I would consider losing the election to the single most unpopular candidate of all time to be "unelectable".

*would've

We don't really know what was contained in the e-mail they initially sent him. Even if it's benign, a "we're reaching out for a statement" e-mail, that can easily feel like "we know who you are and we are coming for you" to someone that is a private citizen. Combine that with a very clear statement from CNN stating

CNN reached out for comment, then the poster deleted everything, then apologized, then CNN came out and said "if he goes back to posting, we're going to release his name."

Not at all. In the movie, it basically goes like this:
1) Staff goes to a meeting and finds out they are being sold.
2) New manager comes out and they all make fun of him for being fat.
3) Some of the journalists begin trying to find out who bought the paper.
4) They find out it's the son of a billionaire so they all

I wish the documentary had even alluded to any of this. Instead it made the Review-Journal staff seem like a group that was just angry about the new management. Thanks for sharing this information.

To describe this movie as lacking in focus is being too generous. It was a hot mess. The movie includes clips of a lawyer talking about the first amendment, and that's the most fascinating part. However, it's ultimately like watching a tv show for it's commercial bumpers. It's a handful of sentences spread out through

I know black people that would disagree. That's kind of my point…there are black people who think everyone should be allowed to say it, and a lot of black people think nobody should be saying it.

Point being that you can't make everyone happy. Yeah there's a difference between how you act in public and with friends, but I don't feel like you can blame people for being confused when the word is so commonly used in that community.
