<p>It's interesting to see comments like this that sound like they were written by someone who recently went through a social justice course at university.<p>Of course, I understand the impetus to piggyback a grievance on phrases like "white supremacist", which used to mean something. But these days their non-ironic use really tells us something about the person using it.</p>

<p>To further feed these tortured analogies, your car is rusted and has no wheels. Replacing the transmission is pointless and it's time to send it to the wreckers and get a new car.</p>

<p>Correct, and companies only ever pretended to care about measures of diversity that didn't hurt their bottom line too much.<p>How about software diversity, where one doesn't have to use either iOS or Android to function in the modern world? Or have to use Chrome OS at school, etc. We have no real freedom there unless we want to face significant difficulties.</p>

<p>You're assuming it's possible to incrementally improve the situation, but maybe a "crackpot" is the best we can manage. If we could put someone truly, brilliantly competent and uncaptured in charge it would have happened already. Sometimes things need to get worse before they can be improved.</p>

<p>Trump may not have deserved to win, but the Democrats deserved to lose - and I'm relieved they did.<p>Maybe after this rematch the blue team will finally understand the loss was <i>their</i> fault, so they can start moving away from the abominable ideology and spiteful elitism that handed them this result.</p>

<p>This is complete nonsense. Israel isn't pursuing genocide. They've killed less than 100,000 Palestinians out of several million. That's obvious restraint compared to what they could do if they really wanted to.<p>You may not like Israel but the word 'genocide' is being abused here, and this whole ICJ ruling is theater.</p>

<p>Yes, the punishment should be immense. But we all know there's no real justice to be had here.<p>In places like China, there's personal accountability at the highest level of an org for major screw ups - sometimes even capital punishment.<p>If we put such options on the table here, perhaps corporations would be a little less callous with people's private data, and a little less eager to collect it.</p>
