If the pictures don't provoke discussion, what's the point of having a thread for it on the discussion forum?

We'll just fight each other with bumper sticker-like arguments instead

Lol @ Ford Pinto.

Oh and the Three Mile Island has been overhyped a fair bit imo. It was a serious incident but the effects luckily were nearly unnoticable.

Funny thing about Three Mile Island is that the failsafes would have worked had humans not overrided them.

They were just pics off google search.

Actually, general-brain sizes differ by race when considering aggregated data, lol, (East) Asians, such large. There are folks who have tried to approach the issues closer but have had trouble when having it considered in academia, not because it is incorrect but because others like you would immediately slander their work without giving it an honest look.

Acknowledging factual data-sets, those describing human differences in our observable reality, often referred to as facts. Are now considered racist?

Cool, so be it, live in your fantasy narrative, i.e., a social-constructivist world, where you only acknowledge one-part of a much larger, detailed, and nuanced whole.

You're more concerned about labeling, shaming, and naming others as racist than an honest discussion on the matter. Considering the concept of racism, however ill-defined and vague it has always been, is an inescapable reality that humanity and other species (not just hominids) have adapted to. We will always having an in-group bias towards our own, whether that be our ethnic-origins, our nation, our fucken soccer team m8. Self-preservation? Yeah, I don't really see the problem with that. Why you would even expect an incompatible universalist ideology, spoon-fed to you from uni, to override it?

I've learned long ago not to argue with SJ cultists, so I won't go further into this, I'll make popcorn instead.

The difference between you and me is that I consider Americans to be my own.  You don't have to assimilate to become American, you're allowed to keep your culture.  It has always been that way, and it isn't about to be change because a few of you culture warriors feel insecure.

You aren't the tail that is going to wag the dog.  People don't have to change who they are just because you don't like it.  Quit trying to control other people.
