Wait a minute. You went through my comment history (to find something to discredit me because you knew you couldn't do it through logic alone) but you failed to notice on the FIRST PAGE of those results that I'm a Bernie supporter, and subsequent pages I mention I'm pro-weed, pro-immigration, pro-gay marriage. If I'm not a liberal, what the fuck do you consider a 'liberal'??
And if you don't consider all of that "liberal", then whatever you do consider "liberal" must be on par with the lunacy practiced at Mozilla.
If this were the 90's, I'd call you a bible thumper.

I voted for Obama, twice. But keep it up by pretending anyone who disagrees is a secret russian puppet.
Fun fact: Gen Z hates you, and they're going to begin to replace you and your bigotry within 10 years.
Mozilla is facing layoffs because they pivoted into "social justice" over productivity.
Firing the guy who invented goddamn Javascript because he donated like... $300, to a group that opposes gay marriage was a great start.
Then they continued by working with known political organizations.
Banning a CHAT application from their app stores not because it violates any policy, but because they hate conservatives.
When they found out that an employee wrote on Reddit that they were "social justice bullies" they in turn... decided to prove it, by saying "if we find the employee, they will be fired."

Here Mozilla is saying tech companies should be filled with "philosophy and psychology graduates to tackle misinformation" because "normal STEM" degree holders are too stupid to understand morality without them.

"Firefox used to succeed by being better, not by having an ideology."
And I say all this as a freakin' __liberal__.
What's really funny is how ignorant that viewpoint actually is.
Key point #1 -> China and Russia already had space force programs... for years.
Not making one does not magically make the US good or smart people. Neil Degrasse Tyson himself said "It's not a bad idea just because it came out of Trump's mouth."
even at 18... if you're dumb enough to trust PORN PRODUCERS with your modesty (and no written contract)... well life... life is going to be much harder than that.
I can't help but wonder if people only care because they're women and society has this innate desire to protect them from any harm [regardless of reasonable expectations of self-preservation]. Like, if a bunch of dudes had their dick pix shared online without their permission can anyone cite a single congressperson who stood up and said "This... has to stop."
Oh wait, remember when Hulk Hogan had his sex tape published without his consent and Gawker outright refused to take it down? Yeah... the internet remembers.
HOW EXPENSIVE IS IT TO HOST PDFS ONLINE? If Library Russia can afford to host BILLIONs of items online with no real income, we're supposed to feel bad for the McGraw-Hill of science publishers?
I mean, come on people. We've completely muddled the reality of the situation. These are not poor mom-and-pop stores. These are billion dollar corporations that benefit from exploiting the good will and hardwork of the pioneers of human knowledge.

...with "toxic culture" firings? How many of those toxic people were women.
Which allows them to continue to continue pretending toxicity is solely male-on-female.
Fun fact: At least 50% of sexual harassment is FROM women on Twitter:

Go ahead, google for yourself about "cyberbullying" and see how it's "directed against women" but almost never mention women are equally responsible for it. And ask yourself how many articles, or TV spots you've EVER seen that directly mentioned and addressed... the other 50% of the planet doing the bullying.
This isn't some MRA / redpill bullcrap. I just think that what ISN'T reported is often as interesting, or more interesting, than what is reported. Like how Bernie Sanders gets less than 1% of the reporting and airtime even though he's easily the top 3rd candidate, while people with less than 1% of the POLLS get more time than him.
Yeah. Literally NOBODY here is saying "Google workers shouldn't unionize, or discuss their workers rights." So anyone debating that is building a strawman just to pat themselves on the back.
What's actually F'd up, is abusing an emergency hotline to spread your communist (*) manifesto. Imagine: using Hawaii's mission launch warning system to spread that you got passed over for a raise. Obviously unethical.
(*dear millennial: that's called tongue-in-cheek)
You realize _women_ don't like Rey's character, right? Weird cross to die on.
>The Rey/Kylo fight in the first was at its very best
The one where she defeats a guy who was trained from birth, the first time holding a sword? GREAT FIGHT.
You want a Disney film with a strong female? Pick up Mulan and stop trying to defend bad movies.
I don't know anyone who's looking forward to the last star wars (in my age range). There's no mysticism and debate over what they might do. Because they're going to do literally "whatever they want" so there's no way to even guess. They don't even play by their own rules of their universe.
- I can accept Superman flying.
- I cannot accept Superman saving a woman falling to the ground from a skyscraper and stopping her descent within an inch of the pavement, decelerating her so fast she's sliced into pieces by superman's arms.
Likewise,
- I can accept "space wizards".
- I cannot accept wizards literally flying in space without oxygen after surviving a bomb dropped on their face when no one in the universe has ever been that powerful in the last 6 movies. You can't just up someone's power level 1000x without explaining why. Because then you wonder, "Why the hell didn't Leia save everyone during the original 3 movies?"
Just like when people found out R2D2 had... rocket engines to hover. That could have saved him in like 30 situations in the original. It didn't make sense unless you make up some story about how the rockets don't work in the future because they broke.
Oh yeah, the prequels were universally loved.
