Not if they are opposed by determined 50 percent.

A small nitpick. Nobody alive is a descendant of Julius Caesar.

People don't usually read classics because they "just want a story".

Sounds like dilemma: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dilemma#Use_in_logic

I own iPhone 5S since November, 2013. I still get iOS updates. I don't feel Apple forcing me to update or anything like that.

Still doesn't make any sense. Is "The democratic voting of two countries was manipulated using social media, it puts at risk our rights, and freedoms." a problem or is "The democratic voting of two countries was illegally manipulated using social media, it puts at risk our rights, and freedoms." a problem?

>This isn't 1960 where there is one medium that connects 75%+ of people.

Was it ever like that though? Even in 1960?

More like "people interested in X are wrong".

"Making predictions" sounds too broad. Everything humans do is basically pattern matching and prediction making.

There is nothing about inflammation or Alzheimers in the title or anything else that would provide any kind of information. "Permanently changes the brain" is a meaningless buzzword.

Because it is a for-profit website with strict content re-use policy?

>to me, "feminism" is about women wanting careers

Second-wave feminism lasted from 1960s to 1980s.

So strange to read about it as if it is something new. We had these things since 2010 and they are very popular in Russia.

Are you still in 2004?

It is easy to be classy when you have superprofit.

No, I don't. I have no idea what part of my comment made you think so and what kind of mental jumps you've performed to come to this strange conclusion.

>I have a brother. Due to circumstances, I can call him a "stupid idiot" and he will know that I'm not serious and I respect him. However if a stranger calls him the same thing, he will take offense. Is that an unfair double standard?

I wouldn't call my brother 'stupid idiot' in public (neither would I in private by the way). I don't care what you do in private. Though, that's another topic.

When black people call other black people nigga, they don't mean it ironically or as an exaggeration. It is just a word which means black person and which is used only by black people. That's like calling someone 'bro', that's not like calling someone 'stupid idiot'.

Yeah, you see. I am white. I didn't coin that word. I am not even American. There is basically nothing that connects me to black slavery except the color of my skin. My family roots go back to slaves too (like roots of >99% of people). I used to use this word ironically to demean pervasive hip hop pop culture. Thankfully, I am no longer in high school and don't have to talk to people who listen to songs about gangsters and fucking bitches.

No, because 40% is smaller than 60%?

Well, without jokes, tyranny of the majority is the topic, which is studied in political science, a complicated one actually.
