The population of Ethiopea has doubled since ''Live Aid'' - another law of inintended consequences we gonna have to pay for.

Consequently, they are selectively breeding a population who cannot be educated, let alone one that is not being educated

whereas Africa, with its vast savannahs and its lush pastures, is giving almost nothing to anyone, apart from AIDS.

AIDS is a man made disease. Like Ebola. Released in Africa.

Some say it was designed to control the pop of Africa, unfortunately, it obviously didn't work.

Hey Stu! Remember I was just talking about Google the other day? Well low and behold the chickens are coming home to roost! This story has gone viral, and I am sure there will be a thread in the FF news section where all the snowflakes will come out in droves arguing nonsensical virtue signaling viewpoints on this. Be prepared! I am of the mid set that finally someone had the balls to speak up and make a cogent argument about hiring competence vs. instituting more diversity crap! Be the best you can be! http://gizmodo.com/exclusive-heres-the-full-10-page-anti-diversity-screed-1797564320...
There is actually a link to this article off the Google Financial pages, it links to a Reuters page http://in.reuters.com/article/google-diversity-idINKBN1AN09R

It is a bit much to see grief for people saying it like it is. Go into higher school Maths and Physics classes and count the ratio of men:women, that is where the problem begins. Maybe Jen would care to impart the approximate gender-split in her Physics learning phase. When I was in Uni (yes they were around in those days) there were about three women in a class of 70 or 80 studying electronics.

On a different tack. Does anyone understand bitcoin and why the fuss - they are touting it as the replacement for cash, but I don't see how it can be. I don't know ANYWHERE I could spend it, even if I had any. Can't even buy a coffee. Don't know any retailers who take it, except for a few AM sites who take donations in BTC, there doesn't seem to be anywhere to use it. And if you are still getting paid in GBP/$ - why bother converting into Btc, which you couldn' spend. Maybe it's different in America but I'm confused atm, just seems like a casino??...
I thought you can buy soap with Bitcoin, I heard it was good for laundry.....

Makes a lot of sense!


"I did not read anything negative or AGAINST women in this engineer's paper.

To say that the majority of women has certain characteristics is a precise statement.
It can be falsified if it is false, or confirmed if it is true. Such statements are an excellent starting point of a discussion.

The article should not be understood as ALL women are certain way, rather that they TEND TO be in a certain way. This does not preclude that many women do not fit the pattern. For example my mother was physicist and mathematician. I don't think my mother would have found this paper offensive. She'd say that it is interesting and would have been interested in the research supporting it.

Secondly saying that women are more interested in people than in things, does not seem to me "against" women. It may not be true, or it may be true, but there is nothing negative about it."

"I think it's a fairly written piece and should be open to criticism rather than just liberals shaming the author for not following their political beliefs. It's dangerous to make a blanket generalization for all women, when there are many that are great engineers and business people, but there will always be more men in programming and I/T jobs due to biological and societal gender roles. The dating process still follows the old gender roles primarily with men seeking a first date, paying for most, if not all, date expenses, and asking a woman to marry them. For race based diversity, Google and the tech industry has an extreme over-representation of Asians, but the diversity leaders never bring it up. Ivy League schools have also sought admissions from Africans over African Americans and rarely mention their legacy admissions for mostly wealthy, liberal families."

"If Google is hiring more women and minorities than this guy would like, then you can bet it has more to do with cheaper labor costs than with the liberal pc ideology known as diversity. Diversity of thought and ideas is a great concept, but that's not what Google wants. After all, it wasn't a Google female CEO who went to Obama's White House ten times a month throughout his presidency and seven days a week during election cycles, it wasn't a female Google employee who created the algorithm that brought people to a word made up by g a y s to define the substance created after their s e x act was completed when the name Rick Santorum was searched during the 2012 election campaign, and it wasn't a female Google founder who went to Egypt to participate in that country' Arab Spring. If Google had nobody but straight white men working for them it would still be the same news they deem the closest to their agenda that will fill their first few search pages."


When I first glanced upon this article it was the comment section in which I found most interesting as I intimated upon by quoting as such. I couldn't have articulated it better myself as these were my sentiments exactly, so I am asking WTF Google? I am glad I am not an engineer working for Google, as many don't don't get the credit for their work, while the Limousine Latte drinkers, sitting in their cushy pleather chairs with Van sneakers propped up on their desks and elbow patches are arrogant enough to receive such credit for hard work they din't perform. These same scumbags think they know or are smarter than everyone else, when in reality diversity and their approach to the work force is just exposing their stupidity and flawed thinking! The engineers observation is spot on, just let Humans be humans and a more harmonious team and work environment will naturally develop, instead of trying to engineer something on some false premise based on ideology rather than intelligent natural design!

Nooooo! But I suspect I know why! What was it that I said that could have been construed offensive? I was stating facts about a certain US Senator who has terminal Brain cancer in advanced stages. He has a few months to live at best.

Also I was commenting on his voting record of this individual as that is public knowledge such as what he has supported in the past and what he has been involved with over the course of his 30+ year political career. Then this same guy with the possibility that it may be his last vote on an important topic such as the current failing healthcare law sticks it to the American people one last time by voting against it's repeal. Yeah that guy is a real piece of work and I get a Coc for stating the obvious? Please! Give me break! It is beyond absurd!

Yelp! I did take notice and will be contacting some people shortly about this issue. The thing about this platform, is there is a record that is date stamped with log in ID and other meta date details to be called up to prove this, if indeed it is true! Tampa will be getting a call soon!

The more I read abt ME, the more confused it seems to be.

I thought Hezbollah were a designated terror organisation by US - now I learn that US spec ops are in Lebanon fighting ISIS, alongside Hezbollah.

But... the main reason Hezb are designated as terrorists is bc they are mortal enemies of Israel. Yep I think Trump really does ''know''.

Yep He ''knows''

Trump has quietly (when Trump does anything quietly, take note) made two sea changes in US policy in Syria. At the G20 summit, he negotiated a cease fire with Vladimir Putin (http://straightlinelogic.com/2017/07/10/us-russian-ceasefire-deal-goes-into-effect-in-southwest-syria-by-tyler-durden/) for southwest Syria. Last week he ended a CIA program that armed Syrian jihadists (http://straightlinelogic.com/2017/07/20/seismic-shift-in-syria-trump-ends-covert-obama-era-cia-program-which-sent-arms-to-jihadists-by-tyler-durden/) fighting Bashar al-Assad’s regime. Both changes are anathema to the US Deep State, the mainstream media, and US allies Saudi Arabia, the Gulf States, Israel, and Turkey
