You can call it pseudo intellectual all you want. What I'm hearing is that you like your point of view and don't care to examine it.

Wow, the inability of everybody here to address your question in any logical way is pretty disturbing.

It is not quite as cut and dried as people would like to think. We react with revulsion because abusing a child is obviously disgusting and, in order for child porn photos to exist, there must be abuse. But that's not the logic fueling most of the outrage.

Can we slap fight over your original point and assumptions which are demonstrably wrong? I think that'd be more fun.

That's not fair. We're not sanctimonious shit heads, we're just better than you. There's a difference.

It's actually a pretty good show. Makes more sense if you speak French, though.

Just, wow. Anybody rendered unconscious should be automatically removed from the game and ineligible to play for the remainder. I get that this sort of change in ruling might generate some incentive to injure, but I think it'd be minimal? Am I way off base?

I have zero understanding of why or how this happened, but the short man in me wishes the dude on the right had taken the tall guy out at the knees.

Meh. The interview was published a day or two later on this site. Calling people names isn't my usual style, but whatever. Internet shits and giggles.

Would you like to comment on her recent interview where it's made evident that your assumptions were wrong?

she probably went out of her way

I lived in Asia for a good long while and we had a joke that went, "What's the difference between an expat and a racist? About 3 weeks."

While these people are undoubtedly racist , the power disparity between them and the Daily Show is a little disquieting.

And damn if I didn't say I questioned the financial claims and documents coming out of China.

"White people" are far better at examining their privileges than any other "race" on Earth. That doesn't mean it's not difficult for people or that everything is better now because we're less racist, but the evolution of race relations in the West is pretty much unprecedented in human history.

The irony being that the US is probably one of the least racist places on the planet. If it weren't, being called racist wouldn't be perceived as an insult.

The article was poorly sourced, was significantly copy/paste, provided no real insight into the subject and the "engaging" part was supposed to be the ohmigod tone of voice she wrote in. I think she was being facetious.

Can you clarify a little? The primary benefits of incorporating females into the initial research is uncovering interactions that have heretofore been undiscovered because of the limits of using all male subjects, correct?

It should also be mentioned that the research paper under the "incorrect" link in The Verge article does not say what the author thinks it does. It provides plenty of good reasons to start incorporating female animals into research groups, but that hormonal cycles aren't important isn't one of them.

If only this sort of information were available to the writers here and on The Verge before they wrote their articles.
