@alchemist444444 @GubbaHomestead @ConsiouSean Just when I think I have read the stupidest take on the internet, things like this happen...

@GubbaHomestead Doesnt Jesus also not speak out against homosexuality?

@hammy6693 @ninamaecoffey It's a great design for precisely that reason. It helps your votes to go to who you prefer most over the other possibilities.
If 62% of voters would prefer someone other than her, than it makes sense she isnt chosen yes? That's means 62% have put the same other person higher.

@RobPuryearFaith @oliverburdick This says more about your experience than anything else.

@ManicMinh @ellymelly Mate, do you honestly think that that is what people think, that that is literally their goal?
Seems like a wildly exaggerated caricature.

@the_dequavis23 @darwintojesus Evolution works through more than just mutations; it also involves natural selection, genetic drift, and gene flow.

@strawhatguy @texasrunnerDFW Since when is an uneducated public a good thing?
Parks could be private, but then what guarantees public access?
You going to check the fire protection status of every property you visit, or just risk dying in a fire?

Seriously, these solutions have been tried and found wanting

@TruthFairy131 Soon to have “official 3rd world status”.
As if that is an actual thing. It doesn’t even make sense outside of the context of the Cold War, and yet here it is being used to whip up hysteria.

[Mathew Morton @MathewMorton]

@keepingtyme @Milajoy It’s not even an analogy.

@cboyack Didn’t they fight against taxation without representation? And now you are just whining about the taxes that the representatives of the people have put in place.

@TheConservati19 Labor won the last election in a thumping victory, but people were saying the same old thing about them leading up to it….

@ImBreckWorsham When people say this I always think about the fact that people starving currently is “optional”; but our current system is set up to perpetuate it.
Why would AI and robotics suddenly make corporations not profit driven?

[Mathew Morton @MathewMorton]

@GreenTyler27 This is the dumbest take around. I swear, people don’t know what communism is anymore.

[Mathew Morton @MathewMorton]

@MickamiousG Well then why are people worried about immigrants taking their jobs then?
These aren’t good questions, they are half baked engagement farming posts.

@Confess1234567 @celina101010 We only lost our homogeneity in the unscientific sense of race.
Eugenics is bunk, and this idea of a “founding stock” should be rejected for the eugenic dreck that it is.

[Mathew Morton @MathewMorton]

@GrumpyOLSoldier Why no tax for working over 65?

[Mathew Morton @MathewMorton]

@Confess1234567 @celina101010 Good for you mate. But the world is more complex than trying to fit everything into your 19th century ethnocentric way of thinking.
