I will never understand people claiming they are being marginalized and discriminated against while literally carrying a sign saying that maybe a group of people should die of disease because they are sick sinful filth.

Is there some way we can get a McAfee / Fiorina / Gingrich / Lessig technology debate? Bonus points if it's hosted in McAfee's Belize compound and moderated by his wives.

As for what happens next, he said only: "You'll find out in the near future." Really? They're going with a cliffhanger?

People stopped wearing hats when cars became a big thing, they essentially took the place of hats. Hat-shaming is just a neo-luddite anti-public transportation conspiracy.

He had a real wackadoodle supporter here who kind of gave him a bad name. Otherwise he is a Cory Doctorow/Bruce Scheineder style tech futurist guy - actually well focused on tech possibilities and hazards (putting him vastly ahead of most TED Talks and Silly Valley guys), but glosses over a lot of reality like "people can't afford food and you can't eat iPads" that makes him quite a bit less useful as a politician. In all fairness to him there is only so much you can know and any actual expert in the political realm is usually tightly focused on one topic like how he is, they just usually have policy people to shore up what they don't know and haven't covered, which he lacks.

From the SSM thread: We're fifteen months away from the presidential election. How much more deluded and wound-up are these people going to get between now and then? We've already got two candidates directly encouraging crap like this, and the current GOP front runner is drawing full-blown white nationalist rhetoric out into the open. It seems like over the last couple months the right has blown a collective fuse and they've given up on trying to conceal their id.

For all the talk of Sanders being the Ron Paul of the Left, I really think Lessig deserves the title more: http://www.slate.com/articles/news_...or_citizen.htmlquote:For Lessig, as for Sen. Elizabeth Warren, the “system is rigged.” In his 2011 book Republic, Lost, he argues that money has corrupted politics. The problem is not bribery in the old-fashioned sense. Nor does Lessig believe that the problem is simply that interest groups obtain favorable legislation by making campaign contributions, bribery with a wink, as one might call it. Lessig believes that politicians and lobbyists are decent, law-abiding, and (even) ethical people who are caught up in a system of mutual dependence where money influences political outcomes without leaving any tracks. Understaffed and thinly spread members of Congress rely on lobbyists to inform them and even write the legislation, depending on the lobbyists more for their expertise, goodwill, and even friendship than for campaign cash. Lobbyists provide much-needed aid but always with a slant, reflecting their particular view of the world, which is not that of most Americans. The result is that, without anyone quite meaning it, law reflects moneyed interests while ordinary Americans are shut out. This has led to political polarization and loss of faith in democracy.
