Opinions
Are the Anglo-Saxons and France enemies eternal enemies?
The problem with the premise of the question is that it "personalizes" that which is actually a matter of calculation. To the extent this extends to the cultural realm, there is as much cross... Society & Politics
🇺🇸 Why do you think repeat offenders (criminals) get low bail and a Get Out of Jail free card?
Actually, the intellectual origins of the divide between those who believe in bail reform and those who take - for lack of a better term - a "law and order" line runs all the way back to the... Society & Politics
How much trust or faith do you have in the government to be accurate, honest, and well-intentioned over what they tell the citizenry?
Woodrow Wilson - not normally one of my calendar pin-ups, but in this case I give him credit - famously said that a true principle of democratic government is that someone somewhere must be... Society & Politics
True or False, Losers Whine Over Women Getting Abortions And Trans People While Winners Focuses On Their Own Lives And Goals?
Voted "False," unless you consider arguing about serious moral and political questions to be whining. In which case, there is much else that would be classified as whining. That said, the... Society & Politics
What is your political party?
Not sure is you meant party or philosophy. At least in the United States, the parties are Republican, Democrat, etc. to which conservatives and liberals and such belong. However, as your ballot... Society & Politics
Which political forces do you sympathize with more?
Voted "right-wing," but I always, when I see this kind of question, have to put an asterisk over it. First, to start, the terms "right," "left" and so forth, are not terribly helpful. The... Society & Politics
Which Party Would You Vote For?
Did not vote given the characterization of each party. That said, the party I would chose is Republican, but that says less than people - and this poll - assume. American political parties are not... Society & Politics
How much longer does US have?
Did not bother to vote as the choices seemed oddly disjointed from one another. That said, the USA departed the gold standard long before the dollar became the world's global reserve currency.... Society & Politics
Pro-life or pro-choice?
Voted "Pro-Life." The British statesman and political philosopher Edmund Burke wrote, "The effect of liberty to individuals is that they may do as they please. We ought see what it will... Society & Politics
Will legalizing marijuana make people lazy and stupid?
That may be confusing cause and effect. The British political philosopher and statesman Edmund Burke said, "The effect of liberty to individuals is that they may do what they please. We ought see... Society & Politics
What is your opinion on Greta Thunberg?
Voted D. Ms. Thunberg got her reputation because she started talking about the climate. Just a hunch, but as the father of one pre-schooler and two elementary school kids I think it more than fair... Society & Politics
Would allowing all countries to have Nuclear Weapons or giving them to them eliminate war all together?
Voted B - but the answer provided is not quite correct. The chances that a nuclear weapon would be used would not necessarily increase. The chances of war, however, would. In terms of the... Society & Politics
What books are you reading at the moment?
At the moment, I am reading a book that some gal from France who is on the site recommended to me. Let's see, what was her nom de guerre ? Can't remember... (Okay, that last part was a joke.)... Society & Politics
What do you think Biden means when he says that A New World Order is coming? and are you in support of this New World Order?
Forgive me, I did not vote on this one as the third option is the correct one. Mr. Biden meant nothing. It was so much verbal meringue, which is the President's preferred rhetorical mode.... Society & Politics
So China invades Taiwan like Russia invaded Ukraine , what happens?
Actually, the most likely option - believe it or not - is war. This because, unlike Ukraine where US interests are secondary and mostly derivative of the US need to reassure eastern European NATO... Society & Politics
Would this be ethical?
First of all, thank you so much for your kind compliment. That is exceptionally generous of you to say and is much appreciated. As to the question, the answer is pretty straightforward. Would... Society & Politics
What is nationalism?
This gets a little complicated - although to their great credit, a number of people who answered your question appeared to understand it. Nationalism has been traditionally used as a synonym for... Society & Politics
Was I right to block someone who was pro war and a trump supporter?
Well, the whole point of the site is discussion and debate. You certainly have the capacity to block anyone you choose for any reason you choose. However, that really defeats the point of the... Society & Politics
Would a European army be a good idea?
The problem is that a European military is a solution that puts the cart before the horse. It assumes that the existence of the tool solves the issue rather than the willingness to use the tool... Society & Politics
Did you know that Ukraine is not a democratic state?
Yup - and so what? The issues at stake in Ukraine are not ideological. On the American side, it was that victory in the Cold War that has prevented even an alliance of convenience between the... Society & Politics
