Comment Re:Kind of disappointed in him. (Score -1, Troll) 681

Tyson gave in to his need to troll.

Really, he just used his bully pulpit to troll people he dislikes. It made him look stupid, because while he's a physicist and not a historian, someone as educated as he is is expected to know about things like the old style calendar dates. He also shouldn't act like a real-life version of Sheldon Cooper, and be taken aback by common human responses. Pointing out his own earlier, even more shockingly naive comments like "which assault rifle would Jesus choose" just establishes his pattern of insolence.

All of this is ironic considering Newton's theological background.

So (aside from being anonymous, so you don't have to stand by what you say), you must then believe firmly that 'counteractive' discrimination is better than no discrimination?

Please let me know the quantitative metric at which we decide that 'counteractive' discrimination has reached a point of overcorrection at which we can then apply counter-counteractive discrimination? Because discrimination is apparently what we want to keep doing, as long as it's the "right" discrimination?
