Comment Everybody Is Against 'Gun Violence'! (Score 2, Insightful) 497

It's over "Gun Control" where the reasonable debate happens.

The Left, ever the great manipulators of language, realized they had lost traction advocating "Gun Control," and are now rolling with "Gun Violence" as their fallback position.

The words have changed, but their loathing of the 2nd Amendment remains intact and unwavering.

The programmer trains the AI to see the N-word as hate speech. Fair enough. Then the AI reads the so-called "black twitter" where everyone refers to everyone else as the N-word, and the AI tracks it all as hate speech. Also fair, it's a goddam computer, not a socio-linguist. Ditto the Q-word for the so-called "LGBTQ twitter." Fair, and fair.

Hysterical. But fair.

There should be a minimum age requirement for writers of "Tech Culture" articles such as this. But because game culture writers are just one tick below music reviewers on the journalism pecking order, we will forever be getting these painfully-latest-jargon-ridden analyses by some 20-something about the most amazing online experience ever! that was previously done to death and then some back on CompuServe.

Comment Weenies Who Hate the Science of Evolution (Score 1) 203

Both Left and Right have them: The Evangelicals who think the world is 5,000 years old, and the Animists who believe that every species should be preserved, no matter the cost. Both sides refuse to acknowledge evolution. It is amusing to note how many of the self-righteous latter are so critical of the former.
