Where would you say you stand on the political compass?

Voted E but only because the terms don't actually mean that much and I am dubious of the value of the chart in capturing a more complex reality. I always, when I see this kind of question, have to... Society & Politics

Do you believe in an all-white ethnostate?

First of all, the terminology is wrong. Ethnicity is not the same as race. Portuguese, Spanish, Russian, German, Italian, French. All of these are different ethnicities or nationalities, but... Society & Politics

Do you think blocking someone is an admission of defeat?

Cheer up. You are unblocked. I just wanted to see how you'd react. Naturally, you assumed that it meant your own virtue. You are not nothing if predictable. Society & Politics

Does Mayor Pete look like Chuck E Cheese?

Okay. It is not very nice. I work in politics and tire of the pejorative and rancid tone of our times. Still, I gotta admit, you nailed it. Who knows, though? Good enough for selling... Society & Politics

When a mass shooting happens, who do you blame?

This is not hard. The shooter. However, to affix blame is not thereby to address the problem. Man's imperfection is a given, how we manage and restrain it is dealt with in law and custom.... Society & Politics

Will you celebrate Valentine’s Day with your friends or family this year?

Kind of half and half. It just so happens that it was around Valentine's day, 14 years ago, that my girlfriend and I met. It was around that same time, two years later, that we moved in together -... Valentine's Day

What Do You Think Of Matching Couples Underwear For Valentine's Day? Cute Idea or Stupid Idea?

Put me down as a "cute idea." Thanks to my girlfriend, I have what we jokingly call "The World's Largest Underwear Collection." Every style and color you can imagine. The irony being that my... Valentine's Day

If a muslim sheik brings all his wives with him to visit America will he be arrested for polygamy?

It is actually a pretty good question. I voted "Other" because the answer - though relatively simple - is a bit more nuanced than the options proffered in the poll. In American law, with one... Society & Politics

If the cashier accidentally gives you more change, do you return or keep the money?

Always let the cashier know and return it. It is just basic decency and the kind of thing I would hope that someone would do for me were the shoe to be on the other foot. Besides, being a... Society & Politics

Should men boycott Valentine's Day?

How about starting a holiday for whinny self-pity? Good grief. This is not one of life's largest problems and Valentine's Day is generally what you want to make of it. Care to guess what I... Valentine's Day

Have people forgotten how to agree to disagree?

A simple "Yes" or "No" answer really does not do the question justice. In fact, to some extent, the question confuses the cause for effect and, in any case, it lacks any comparative metric.... Society & Politics

Is abortion murder?

If you assume that a being is a human being from the moment of conception, then yes, it logically must be murder. Which indeed is why the courts and the law have tied themselves up in knots since... Society & Politics

In your opinion, was the assassination of Iranian's top general Qasem Soleimani justified or not?

To ask if it is justified is to miss the point. Justification suggests some moral metric and by that standard it can be justified as an act of self-defense or of retribution. Soleiman, gosh knows,... Society & Politics

Are millennial's actually more sensitive than Boomers and Gen Z?

There is a difference between sensitivity and moral preening. The "Boomers" grew up in a time where courtesy and regard for others was an obligation of good manners and the consequence of being... Society & Politics

Should high school dropouts not be allowed to vote?

It is not clear what the purpose of such a change in the law would be. However, it shows a fundamental misunderstanding about why the vote exists. As the 18th century British statesman and... Society & Politics

Would you support the "divided states" of America?

Let's keep some perspective here. You mean compared to the civil war when 650,000 Americans killed each other, so robust were they divided politically? Suffice to say, the nation has been here... Society & Politics

Question for the pro-lifers, are you for the death penalty?

Voted pro-life/anti-death penalty. The case for both being related to some extent, but not strictly so. In terms of the death penalty, there is no evidence that it deters crime. As a general... Society & Politics

What does the sudden influx of Greta Thunberg hate from the little boys of the GaG Right reveal?

Just a hunch, but as the father of one pre-schooler and two elementary school kids I think it more than fair to say that you could not swing a dead cat in a crowded school and hit anyone who would... Society & Politics

Would you ever want a FEMALE president?

Name me the female President, I'll tell you if I would want one. The gender mattering less than what the gender has going on inside his or her head. Give me an American version of Lady... Society & Politics

What's the worst gift you've received on Christmas?
