Read what she said. She's not telling anyone to get violent. She's saying they should be joining the peaceful resistance movement. But of course, the ones we're peacefully resisting are going to spin it as encouraging violence - while they kidnap, assault and abuse innocent civilians.

I don't have a problem with women writing fantasy books. I just wish the fantasy market wasn't glutted with 'romantasy' novels. I really, really dislike those.

Christianity is incredibly easy to fake. Anyone can call themselves a Christian with little, if any, blowback. It's the whole 'sinner saved by grace' schtick - which is, essentially, "Yup, I'm a Christian but I don't really have to act like one."

Mostly just that I value their opinions on current events, and I admire their work. :)

If I can find three reputable sources that say the same thing, I feel pretty confident in accepting it as fact. The real trick is finding reputable sources. Media Bias Fact Check is really helpful for this.

I always find it hilarious that all of these anti-Firefox articles and posts always seem to point people toward Chrome, in the end. It's almost as if there's a concerted effort by a mega-corporation that specializes in spyware to trick people into using their products by artificially seeding social networks with pro-Google sentiments. So strange.....

I've wrangled over this very question for years. I've looked at all the research, I've read all of the articles and I've witnessed all of the armchair security 'experts' make their claims one way or the other. I got so exhausted bouncing back and forth between a dozen screamed opinions, I walked away. In the end, I decided to go with Signal and it has served my needs for a secure and private instant messenger with no ads or shady crypto-scams without fail.
