"Pick one."

Arsenic7 commented on The Doctor Who Business Is Male-Dominated.

For the Doctor Who geeks, isn't there some implication by the doctor that there isn't even necessarily any reason why he always regenerates as a male and not a female?

Arsenic7 commented on Alaska's Only Congressman Calls Mexicans Wetbacks.

Saying wetback is not racist because people used to use it without batting an eye is like saying the same thing about the word "nigger." Just because people used it casually all the time in "polite" company doesn't mean it's not horrible.

Arsenic7 commented on Dear Nerds: Don't Do Blackface.

The race of the character is relevant to the plot.
But referencing the character is just as effective, if not more so, by simply copying their dress, hair style, and accoutrements.

Arsenic7 commented on Wait, That's GMO, Too?.

@54, your argument over the science seems to be completely political and not based on the technology itself.

However, the example Ben gave is a real thing and does demonstrate one of the potential dangers both of inadequate forethought and labeling.

Monsanto does not own GMO technology. They use it to produce their products.

Genetic modification is a technology and a concept. If you don't like Monsanto don't buy Monsanto products but it has literally no bearing on whether an individual GMO is safe for consumption.

@33, sure but GMO foods do not inherently require more pesticides. In fact, some strains are designed to require less. In fact, I'm willing to bet that the reason GMO foods tend to have more pesticides put on them is because most GMO foods are popular monoculture crops that tend to have pesticides heaped on them anyway.

Conventional crops are not necessarily GMO crops, Will.

GMO foods should be evaluated for safety on a case by case basis. As should natural food strains. Both can be dangerous, both can be beneficial to health and the environment. There really is no difference that can be described by blanket statements.
