Some scientists did agree, even said he wrote an A worthy paper.

Others disagreed.

Even slatestarcodex argued a little for both sides.

Its clear scientific consensus has not been reached, and people need to discuss this openly with out censors.

It was a politically charged topic, he would have been crucified either way.

But by phrasing the memo the way he did, he covered himself legally.

I wouldn't be surprised to hear everything was run by a lawyer first.

Old neo nazi's were involved in a lot of crime and drug activities which made them alot scarier.

New neo nazi's seem alot more normal looking and young (based on charlotteville), which is probably more worrying for a different reason.

Yea it was always coming given the success of the great firewall.

Soon world governments will get in on this, if they haven't already.

I suspect identity politics from the left is backfiring tremendously combined with a lack of jobs, you have pain and extreme hatred.

Also politics on both the left and right favors global corporations.

Identity politics and failed politics are ripping america apart.

I suspect biological diversity also applies to our minds (mental diversity).

Slatestarcodex often talks about psychotropics affecting people differently.

Misfire is an under statement.

Ruining the lives of innocent people because of mob bloodlust is wrong.

Hopefully the doxxers get sued for defamation.

Is this why some antidepressants work, they can break the cycle ?
Drones seem like they need to be more regulated maybe by the FAA.
Wow, with a little more work this will be revolutionary.

Hopefully lower prices for consumers, but man will this put alot of immigrants out of jobs.
