Hillary lost because of Russian election interference. She won the popular vote.

Russian bot farms spammed the internet with their talking points in strategic areas to influence the electoral vote.

That is why it is important to check the history of accounts who post to see if they are pushing specific talking points.

Then you spend the money on research and development with no reward. Let’s see how much new technology gets invented without IP laws.

Go to China and talk about tiananmen square or go to Russia and oppose the invasion of Ukraine. You’ll be locked up instantly.

And yet China and Russia are facist states

To me he just sounds like a character from that show Big Bang Theory. I think he may come off wrong sometimes when he is trying to bring science into the discussion but everyone has bad days. I don’t think Carl Sagan would’ve held it against him.

I disagree. I’ve had many times where people call out plot holes in movies just because they stand out to them. Not because they are trying to appear smart.

It happens a lot on the Star Wars and Star Trek communities here on lemmy but I don’t see it getting the same reaction.

There are a lot of people I wouldn’t want to go to the movies with. But I wouldn’t write an article about each of them telling them to shut the fuck up.

That reaction just doesn’t make sense to me.
