  • So Russians are by default evil because of their country written on their passport? Or is it about where they're born? Maybe about their ancestry? Or about their "ethnicity"?

    Once you start allowing discrimination based on "origin", the difference between that and pure racism is just a blur.

    Is the guy a spy? Is the guy having ties with another government? Is he behaving in a suspicious way? Those are what matter, his "country" doesn't, and the fact that people are immediately rushing to say that he's from Russia shows the intention behind it: to apply a stereotype to someone they don't like.

    As I said, I'm sure that you can find a lot of dirt on this guy that has nothing to do with his ID papers. Right now people are playing like Trump trying to cast doubt on the immigration status of his opponent: they are trying to use a stereotype based on origin to make someone look bad, without any further argument.

    At some point people need to stop thinking that morals are something that you can ignore freely whenever you want.

  • So you agree with the concept of race? Okay.

    Saying nazis are not tolerable is one thing, saying they are another race or have an innate difference from other humans is not only useless, but also exactly the kind of idea that allowed them to exist, so the irony is strong here.

  • Yeah, that's a bit hypocritical to try to attack Trump by applying xenophobic stereotypes on his staff.

    I'm sure you can find issues with nazis without saying they are an inferior race, and I'm sure you don't need weird xenophobia to criticize Trump or this guy.

  • No it's not. At most, you can use it combined ("male worker") but no one normal says "a male" except when talking about animals. People who use it like that for humans are generally a big red flag.

    And you don't learn to use "mal" and "female" when you learn english, you only find that in toxic masculinity environments.

  • I find it a bit misleading to focus on retractions. Articles being retracted is a necessary thing, and there is nothing more suspicious than a place that never retracted anything.

    What matters here is obviously the nature of the retractions, the source of the problem, which generally means whether it's a fraud or not.

  • Look at how to do it with python, you'll learn interesting stuff, get a working result, and not destroy your brain using a chat simulator as a programming help.

    I don't get why people are fine with comments that are as absurd as saying "to hang a painting, first stab a screwdriver in the wall then attach the painting to it, sometimes it's not too bad"

  • It's impressive how much hatred linux gets, by people who generally try to say it's insignificant and unnoticeable.

    But eh, better them say that it's going to die, than with Windows where everyone agreed to say that it was dead after 7 and stopped having any expectations.

  • Because politics are not science and people are very weird when it comes to children and education.

    You cannot seriously believe that a country doing something gives it any kind of credibility, right?

  • Trans "treatments" (hormonal, surgery, etc) are one of the best remedies for a psychological issue. In medical views, the amount of people de-transitioning actually prove that the solution to gender disphoria and such (I easily get confused with the exact terms, apologies if I'm making a mistake with wording) is to let people transition.

    In comparison, treatments for other problems (like depression, personality disorders, etc) are much much less successful.

    The idea that transitioning should have a 100% satisfaction is absurd and coming from far-right propaganda.
