Amos Yee is set to give his first ever public talk at Harvard.
Yee is a teenager from Singapore who has recently been granted political asylum in the US. He was in trouble with the Singaporean regime for repeatedly criticizing the country's late founder, Lee Kuan Yew. His treatment has been marginally better in the US. Although he was granted asylum by the US back in March, he was held in US jail until late September where he ran in to difficulties for his ongoing criticism of Islam. Currently, he is banned from Facebook for alleged, unspecified "community standards" violations. His videos are available on YouTube.

That has to be the weirdest thing I've seen today.
Maybe even this week.

Are you sure you are on the same Internet I am? Did I accidentally step into a parallel reality wormhole where people aren't weird on the internet?

It might actually motivate kids to do well in school. The physical requirements would lead to a lot of statutory rape of grown women though.

An 11-pounder should seem possible. A 7-pounder should be about 100% reliable, easy as could be.
Without this capability, one is not really a grown women, no matter how old.
There is always the option to remove the uterus. Actually, cryosurgery to remove the lining should suffice. The point is that mothers and babies should never be put at risk due to physical immaturity of the mother.
One could perhaps also exempt women over the age of 75.

That word I don't think it means what you think it means... female teachers have committed plenty of rape or socially forced sex if you want to be specific about it.
but let us not talk about power and violence because then we would have to talk about the state and people that are doing violence to everyone
no capitalism does not lead to violence and evil
no wait flip that

Nobody was talking about grown women having sex with kids. Maybe you should read all the words before replying.
