Comment Re: Monsanto (Score 1) 100

Yeah, this. If it weren't for genetic modification, the world would have reached its carrying capacity for humans ages ago. This is what I hate about the debate about GMOs: all the damned ignorance and fundamental misunderstanding of the term "genetically modified".

Course, most of that frustration holds true for many other debates as well.

I just logged onto GooglePlay to look at this app. As of right now 25 5-star reviews and 2176 1-star reviews ( 8 in between). all 1-star reviews had similar language to the parent post (especially the "Nope!" part) and most were carbon copies of each other. On top of that, when I went back to the GooglePlay store, CurrentC was absent from my recent searches and it took until i typed the whole title back in for the app to reappear as a suggestion from the drop-sown menu.

I could care less about Target or Wal-Mart being charged by Visa, et.al. and I could care less about Google or Apple trying to make a pay-by-phone app, but this targeted and clearly choreographed backlash against CurrentC makes me wonder what's really going on here. I smell the smelly smell of something that smells smelly...

Comment Re:"Social justice warriors" are the ultimate trol (Score 1) 571

SJWs are the new, persistent, invasive, and incredibly annoying trolls (I don't doubt other trolls have stated mimicking their behavior just to annoy others, not to advocate the position). But I would still say people who d0x others and post SSNs, addresses, and spam death threats are the ultimate trolls. That said, SJWs could easily fall into that category, but it's not mutually exclusive to them.
