When they finally do it, instead of shutting off all analog signal they need to make every station in the country broadcast a repeating message for a week explaining what happened and giving instructions plus a phone # to call for more details. That's about the only way to limit the number of angry phone calls that everyone from the electric companies to the stores that sold the remote controls will get.
One reason people can't (or at least shouldn't) "just accept" that "they don't think the same and have different interests" is that it is for the most part demonstrably untrue.
is good, too. I did my master's research on percieved and actual gender differences in infidelity in dating relationships. The bottom line--men cheat a little bit more often than women...but both men and women THINK that men cheat a LOT more than women.
Men have a higher sex drive than women. The gender difference in "cheating" that you quote is misleading without further information. Let's suppose that the number of females in the world was exactly equal to the number of males, and that everyone was in a monogamous relationship. Then suppose that one male was cheating with 100 females. Who, in this case, cheats more, the women or the men? On average (the mean), it would even out. You would have to look at the distribution. This brings us to another point--that is that other men who may want to cheat are denied the opportunity. So, only looking at the number of people who are cheating tells you nothing about who wants to cheat.
"Then I tried to think of cases in recent decades where world opinion differed significantly from the US media's dominant spin. I can't think of a single one." Umm, there was this tiny little thing called Iraq, where basically noone agreed with you, or believed your claims of evidence. That might not be the impression you got from your domestic media, though.
That was exactly the impression I got from the domestic US media. So your point fails.
Only teaching it on university level might act as a filter to keep it away from people who'll figure it means they should start an eugenics program.
Some people still cling to the idea that humans are divinely set apart from animals. We can breed animals to good effect. So too can we breed (and we have bred) humans to more efficiently function in society.
land of the free. where freemen understand that freedom is protected by banding together, and fighting off threats to freedom. threats that exist abroad, in battle with evil ideologies that are antagonistic to freedom, or domestically, in poor areas of the country where freedom is threatened by economic misery
What causes some people to be poor, and some to be rich? For that matter, what causes people to be different?
you are not free if you are poor. the battle for maintaining freedom is a domestic and a foreign battle. if you think it is only a foreign battle, you do not truly understand the nature of freedom
I do not see what qualifies you to be the final authority on what constitutes freedom. Suppose I disagree?
