What are you, a Unitarian?

Bread *coughnucleartechnology* and Circuses....

Should we be starting a new thread asking "Should Egypt have nuclear Technology?"

Rabble rousing anti-Irish posts? Has Dissensus gone from "Big Other" to "Oh, Brother" ?

Sucks to your suggestions and to your ass-mahr

I was under the impression that said groaning was a collective groan in anticipation of all the nonsense in store for the next 2000 or so odd years.

After we agree that there are adults and children on earth, that argument gets slippery...very slippery, and that's putting it a nice way, let's not even talk about the threat of a disciplinary society...thoughtcrime!

I'm near positive that the rate of posting has dropped since the change to the new skins.

There's a place i visited in Houston, TX (yeeha...) called "The Proletariat"- didn't really notice anything other than the name, but better than totally put on nonsense. Also went to a place in Cambridge, MA called "The People's Republic"- that was much cooler

Welcome! You've got Dissensus! ... ...

If they really do purport such a retrograde social policy, we have to assume they're in favor of small-scale, organic farming...right? Less greenhouse emissions without women driving too, right?

Interesting to see that Gillez Deleuze was so taken with the Palestinian landlessness-- It does provide quite the graphic imagery to complement the otherwise peculiar language of "territorial flows" and "deterritorialized reterritorializations" that you see elsewhere. In truth, however, these...

I once played a game of Assasins like this (water baloons only) with at least 50 people involved. It was quite fun, but I can see the problems with water pistols on the tube stations

Agreed- Also, what are we to think of the fact that Israel's strategy involves control of arable land and resources? And I'm sure that once the various Arabs stopped complaining about "the Jews" then this would rebuild their power and water stations that Israel bombed (everyone knows that...

Crunchy on the outside, chewy center

I've been noticing stuff like this for days now- it seems particularly acute. Omission of details also becomes problematic when it's so one sided.

Sure, but Hitler was just a reductio there. I'm simply saying that the idea of "we report, you decide" is often decieving... Of course we don't want the wrong interpetations to be given out as dogma, but I think there should be a place for recognition of ideology in education--keep it honest...

To play devil's advocate, when do we draw the line about "political biases"? What about learning about the Nazis?
