You'd be surprised how much conservative (and worse) viewpoints based in identity and tradition rely on progressive people's "tolerance" and their own "freedom of speech" to further their hateful and regressive agenda in this country. For some reason, right wingers often seem to assume they have a stronger right to identity and their own point of view than others.Originally posted by MrFun View PostIntolerant of different viewpoints, such as that of the Nazis? That makes you a bigot.

I read this a while ago and it sums up for me the greed and hollowness of much of the modern art world :
The 300 drawings from the 1950s are a revelation, and they will be published for the first time next week. They show another side to Warhol, an artist we mostly know for his pop art screen prints, his soup cans, car crashes, Marilyns and so on. Here, said Daniel Blau, we see a skilled and sensitive draughtsman producing images that are more Egon Schiele than pop art.
I don't know if anyone is familiar with the work of Egon Schiele (even now some people find its explicit depictions of sexuality shocking) but just in terms of technical skill he makes Warhol's drawings look, well... 'amateur' would be kind.

So not just unfunny, but based upon factually incorrect assumptions.Originally posted by MrFun View Post

CONCLUSION
Our research suggests that the popular belief that Wal-Mart has a significant negative effect on the size of the mom-and-pop business sector of the United States economy is statistically unfounded. After examining a plethora of different measures of small business activity and growth, examining both time series and cross-section data, and employing different geographic levels of data and different econometric techniques, it can be firmly concluded that Wal-Mart has had no significant impact on the overall size and growth of U.S. small business activity. There is no question that Wal-Mart does cause some mom and pop businesses to fail. However, those failures are entirely compensated for by the entry of other new small business elsewhere in the economy through the process of creative destruction."Just puttin on the foil" - Jeff Hanson

Only because it's more competitive, dumbass. Walmart used to be a small business. Putting other people out of business is how the economy is supposed to work.Originally posted by MrFun View PostIf there is no sound in space, how come you can hear the lasers?
