Has traffic dropped that much or have we become more resistant to trolling bait? Or both?

I think living in a plurality that is dead set on walking lockstep into some chimera of Huxley and Orwell has left some of us with no words.

So I'll borrow someone else's...


"Your Honour, the courtroom is a crucible. In it we burn away irrelevancies until we are left with a pure product, the truth for all time.

Now, sooner or later, this man or others like him will succeed in replicating Commander Data. And the decision you reach here today will determine how we will regard this creation of our genius. It will reveal the kind of a people we are, what he is destined to be.

It will reach far beyond this courtroom and this one android. It could significantly redefine the boundaries of personal liberty and freedom, expanding them for some, savagely curtailing them for others.

Are you prepared to condemn him and all who come after him to servitude and slavery? Your Honour, Starfleet was founded to seek out new life. Well, there it sits. Waiting. You wanted a chance to make law. Well, here it is. Make a good one."

Incessant posts like this over the last decade drove off most people who would have argued. *NM* Ghavrel - 02/05/2021 04:40:06 AM 106 Views

I don't always agree with Cannoli, but his posts are the most interesting things on this board. *NM* Narg - 02/05/2021 05:22:46 PM 107 Views
