Political posts
November 6, 2012
Last evening, I posted a video and a blog item related to the U.S. economy and election, meant to stimulate a one-time discussion on a subject that is normally off-topic on KurzweilAI. Some readers found them offensive or irrelevant to the science/technology focus of KurzweilAI. I have now removed them, with apologies to anyone who was offended. It was solely my decision to post them, based on my own political and economic interests. — Amara D. Angelica, Editor
UPDATE Nov. 7, 2012:
In response to requests, here are links to original sources for the video and article. For perspective, these are from posts by prominent liberal sources:
The Chinese Professor (video)
Critique of the video, which was posted by James Fallows, a national correspondent for The Atlantic
