He is a dishonest grifter, but in this rare, rare instance... he is correct. There is not enough information in the picture to uniquely answer the question without introducing additional assumptions not stated in the question.
@billybragg
How many more times will Billy Bragg and his followers find themselves fighting on the same side as Nike, BlackRock and the US military before the penny drops?
@growing_daniel
Momma bears really enjoy if you play hide and seek, taking one of her cubs with you while she comes to find you. If the cubs are really small, I put them in my pants pockets and we have a great old time with momma chasing us until we all roll on the floor together.
@Babygravy9
Is this a retreat for former Buzzfeed journalists who were unable to keep up with the raw physicality of Ruth Bader Ginsburg's exercise regime? My testosterone dropped watching it. I now have the ick with myself.
@TheOtherPaul2
I'm reliably informed that the working class in mid-century England had the politics of Portland lesbian bookshop owners... They were just mad keen on Andrea Dworkin and vegan lattes.

Ada Lovelace paved the road for nothing. She was a rich patron of a genius, that is all. Later computing was not based on his work. He allowed her to write some trifles. The idea that she was "the first programmer", or significant beyond funding Babbage is ridiculous cope.
@kirtipatelmd
Weird thing is, as feminist paradise approaches, female happiness and life satisfaction continue their long decline and female mental health continues to deteriorate.
@nikicaga
But it's completely out of keeping with the location. "Monstrosity" is the standard word for such things. Is there something about the holocaust that renders basic rules of taste inapplicable? If they placed a massive concrete turd there, would we have to pretend it looks good?
@FAFO_TV
This is actually the optimal strat if you want to speedrun the cave. Angles are kind of precise, that's why he does that weird wiggle. He then pause buffered throwing his arms back and doing a one-frame ledge grab. If he's got it right, he'll clip through the bottom of the cave.
@lporiginalg
Repeat after me:
I am not smarter than Ted Kaczynski
I am not smarter than Thomas Carlyle
I am not smarter than Enoch Powell
I am not smarter than Maurice Cowling
I am not smarter than Joseph de Maistre
But I am less wrong than Hasan, Vaush, Destiny, Keffals and Hinkle.
@stillgray
That must have been a wild experiment to get through the ethics board. "So, we are going to divide the children into two groups. The first group will be shouted at for 5 minutes three times a day. The other group..."
@pmavgaz1
Until 1828/1829, even dissenters and Catholics weren't able to become MPs. Are you proposing we return to something like that to exclude other faiths?
@hayasaka_aryan
Imagine how much you have to screw up, the lengths you have to go to in order to alienate your mostly young, sexually frustrated male audience, to get to the point where hot lesbians making out don't sell...
@Sargon_of_Akkad
For the good of the colony, climb that tree and spread the fungus. Spreading the fungus is what makes the colony special. The fungus is your friend. For the love of the colony, enemies of the fungus must be defeated. The fungus only wants the best for the colony.
@paleonormie
Reminds me of an old Lenny Bruce bit about a Jewish mother complaining her son just can't find the right girl... such a good kind boy... always trying to help others... he brings sailors home every night with no place to sleep and they beat him up and take all his money.

@TZSA_
He does not, at the gut level, believe in the danger. He is processing intellectually things that his brainstem needs to be processing. At every step, he assumed it was a misunderstanding. We are all reasonable people, after all?
@revpaulwhite
This sounds like the kind of thing that can be gamed. There MUST be agencies who will train you to ace these kinds of tests in the same way they will write your CV for you.
@LazlosGhost
Norm's capacity to take an interaction to places nobody was comfortable with,, where there felt like there was real risk and then land it where ever he wanted was stunning.
@OGRolandRat
One of the things I haven't heard mentioned in your talks is that one of the defining points of Churchill's youth is his involvement in the 2nd Boer War. Smuts described that as the beginning of the end for Empire. Everything he was involved in left Britain weaker.

@OneTopicAtATime
It very clearly and obviously does not mean validating whatever anybody wants to do or be. He told people to "sin no more", he didn't tell them to live how they chose and all was cool. He forgives the sins of the prostitute, he doesn't say what she has been doing wasn't a sin.
@Berlinnaeus
Maybe bringing in unprecedented numbers of foreigners with the inevitable conflict resulting from that wasn't a good idea? You can feel that doing that shouldn't cause conflict all you like, but people have been pointed to these problems and why they happen for centuries.
@tezilyas
I think you misunderstand. It's not about not being able to empathise, or not knowing what it's like to feel uncomfortable. It is about rejecting being blamed for that discomfort and rejecting resolving Nihal's discomfort by making the majority of the country uncomfortable

@ninabegus
Western civilisation was,to a significant degree, made by people who had read the Iliad and thought it was foundational. It's significance goes way beyond what ever truth there may be in the story.
@Baezantium
@annakhachiyan
In the Iliad, Achilles ties the body of Hector to his chariot and drives it around over and over and over in front of the tomb of his friend who died because Achilles wouldn't fight because Agamemnon had taken for himself some woman Achilles had kidnapped from a nearby town.
@shagbark_hick
It's like any niche hobby. The film Sideways came out, the whole thing got swamped by casuals and the original pioneers were driven out of the very thing they had helped to define.
@TheNewReview2
It's the biggest shill meme on the Internet. It frames the entire interaction in the way global capital, who wants to do mass migration, wants. 19th and early 20th century British socialist opposed exactly this.
@fillypepper
@wi_naura
@Nigel_Farage
This is where the universalism of liberalism that went into socialism, and went into laissez-faire free market capitalism causes both to treat people the same. All peoples are assumed to be interchangeable, to have no legitimate reasons to want to preserve their distinctness and

There is a school of antinatalist thought that comes from utilitarianism that believes sentient life is a utilitarian net negative.
@AuronMacintyre
I played all the Bioshock games, so I'm something of an expert on the modern Right. The reason they focus so much on protecting children is because of the valuable Adam they believe they contain.

@durandalcomplex
It depends what level the question is aimed at. If you assume it's 7-year-olds you get one set of answers. If you assume it's aimed at 16 year olds in a mathematics class you get a different set. All answers other than 51 involve some kind of trick.
@extradeadjcb
It doesn't. Most things east of the Elba only exist as low-resolution bitmaps. The geometry of the terrain is supposed to prevent you from getting out that far. Romania doesn't even have collision. If somehow you managed to get out that far, you'd fall through to the death plane.
@MaximuSure
@OliLondonTV
Oh, no... the people of the Middle East who had been peace-loving pacifists living in an Eden-like sanctuary for millennia without number had war brought to them by the cruel invader.
@GreeneMan6
It reminds me of the family guy episode where they end up in a Disney cartoon that is wholesome and wonderful, until the Jewish neighbour looks in.
@CitizenNill
Sean Bean yelling at him to HOLD THE LINE, while a young Michael Caine walks about with his hands clasped behind his back. A cannonball bounces off Wayne's head, he barely notices.

@memeticsisyphus
This is not controversial. It was so ubiquitously understood that the whole plot of When Harry Met Sally is playing with this exact issue.
