Talk:Scott Adams/Archive1

Trump
Currently nothing about him here.
 * To be honest, while Adams does seem to be nominally a free-market, Reagan Republican, it's hard not to be considerate of Poe's Law on his endorsements of Trump. At the end of the day, he is a humorist.  That being said, he does appear to support Trump over Hillary. Petey Plane (talk) 13:38, 10 June 2016 (UTC)

Whoa
Read the sixth paragraph down on this archived copy of a piece Adams posted on his blog in 2006. Is he seriously suggesting what I think he's suggesting? -Shtrominer (talk) 20:42, 22 December 2013 (UTC)
 * He appears to be suggesting that he'd like a source for a commonly-given number. However, given his tech background, he could easily have found out before clicking save.. Sophie  Wilder silverbrain.png 21:01, 22 December 2013 (UTC)

Right to privacy
In a recent blog post, Adams demonstrated a fundamental misunderstanding of the concept of the right to privacy, basically arguing that people don't need it if they having nothing to hide. He argues in the post that "my guess is that you would not need privacy because most of what you want to do would be legal" and "but in a pure democracy, so long as you don’t violate the law, no one cares what you do on your own time." Which is completely ignoring the fact that, just because personal information doesn't involve anything illegal or widely viewed as immoral, doesn't mean that people should be comfortable with it being public knowledge. It's not illegal to draw NSFW furry art or use wart cream, but do people who do want everyone from their boss to their mother to know about it? Don't know whether this is something worthy of coverage in the article. -Shtrominer (talk) 04:10, 7 September 2015 (UTC)

MRA Dilbert
Scott Adams's brainfarts inserted into Dilbert strips. Worth linking to in the article? Vulpius (talk) 06:35, 14 December 2015 (UTC)
