Remember when this place had a rep as a good school?
"When I suggested that it was his job as a leader to resist such illiberal demands, he explained that he is a “pluralistic dean” who must listen to and accommodate “all sides.”
He listens to "all sides". By "all sides" he means: the left, the center left, and the far left.
Get ready to laugh:
"Maybe Someone Dies": Facebook Exec Justifies "All The Questionable Contact Importing"
"Following the shooting death of a Chicago man captured on Facebook Live, VP Andrew "Boz" Bosworth, one of CEO Mark Zuckerberg's most trusted executives, wrote in the memo titled The Ugly; “We connect people. Period. That’s why all the work we do in growth is justified. All the questionable contact importing practices. All the subtle language that helps people stay searchable by friends. All of the work we do to bring more communication in. The work we will likely have to do in China some day. All of it,” VP Andrew “Boz” Bosworth wrote.
“So we connect more people,” added Bosworth in another section of the memo. “That can be bad if they make it negative. Maybe it costs someone a life by exposing someone to bullies.
“Maybe someone dies in a terrorist attack coordinated on our tools.”
The memo clearly illustrates that Facebook management is well aware of the physical and social risks of using the platform - along with the fact that their data collection practices are "questionable."
Bosworth, who joined Facebook in 2006 after working at Microsoft, responded to BuzzFeed story by stringing together a verbose excuse which roughly translates to:
I don't actually believe what I wrote
I was throwing out a "bad" idea for the sake of consideration
That's part of our process of "internal debates" that makes Facebook so awesome "
Seeing him try to weasel out of this and fail makes me smile. Seeing him admit their tactics are questionable also makes me smile.
Then seeing this makes me smile even more:
Facebook In Turmoil: Employees In Uproar Over Executive's Leaked Memo
Remember this logic next time you see a leftist whining about guns: even if some people die it's worth it, cuz free speech.(I agree, I am just noting how they seem to think certain rights are worth enduring deaths but others are not.)

Lame, why remove guns? Plus whenever any fan pictures Han Solo in action in their head...he is holding a frickin blaster.

How Easter became a #MeToo moment
"The men refused to listen to her story. She was publicly smeared as a whore. And when she emerged as a celebrated advocate, powerful men tried to silence her because she threatened their status.
Nevertheless she persisted.
The woman we're talking about, though, is not a leader in the #MeToo movement -- the viral campaign raising awareness about sexual assault and harassment against women. She is Mary Magdalene, the first person Jesus appeared to after his resurrection, according to the New Testament, and the first person to preach the good news that he had been raised from the dead. "

Jesus take the wheel!!!!!
Leftists can't even be consistent. Bringing up the lack of diversity in the NBA and NFL is a valid point. This woman seems to imply that diversity in sports isn't as important as diversity in the government.
Which means obviously this woman was very much against the "Oscars So White" complaints a few years ago. After all...just like sports, movies are mere entertainment. Except of course I'd wager that if we were able to go back in time and ask this woman about that..she'd support it.

As a person who studied Western Philosophy in college, this guy is not only an idiot, but he's horribly wrong.
As a person who only briefly touched on Eastern Philosophy in college, this guy is definitely a Western-centric bigot.
It was not the bible, is was the Golden Age that drove to the ideas of what we politically value. It was the Age of Enlightenment that brought us the great concepts, yes, somewhat driven by the believes in the Divine.
Anyway, Prager Institute is hit or miss. Sometimes, great. Sometimes woefully stupid.
