1. CMV: When people mention “Biblical Marriage” they should also include polygamy and incest in their definitions of marriage.
The Bible makes it very clear that polygamy and marrying your sister or family members is perfectly moral. When having discussions about marriage with Christians we should really consider the entire context of the Bible to get a better understanding of its VERY open view of marriage. The Bible…

2. CMV: Crabs are one evolution away from the ultimate lifeform.
Crabs have developed at least six separate times on earth. That's six separate lineages all settling on armored shells, molting, regeneration, pincers, etc. You could say that crabs are like living tanks, except tanks have guns. If crabs were ever to obtain a biological ranged feature, they would…

3. CMV: Spaghetti is objectively the worst pasta noodle and every pasta dish would be improved with a better noodle.
It sucks at holding sauce, it doesn't mix well in the dish itself (you'll get a bite of a bunch of noodles, or you'll get a bite of the sauce and whatever else you have in your dish, but never both simultaneously), it's long and gangly and hard to scoop onto your plate without making a mess, no…

4. CMV: Networking is just a more socially acceptable way of saying social climbing.
I think we’ve heard many iterations of what networking is and how it should be done. Ultimately, when you’re at a networking event, you’re there because you're hoping to meet people who are already at a certain level of their career, and you plan to try to impress them just enough so that they…

5. CMV: Political correctness causes more prejudice and division.
Firstly, I want to clarify what I mean by political correctness as I see it as a spectrum to some extent. I have no problem with everyone agreeing with the fact that certain terms are offensive and we should try not to use them in polite conversation. I even respect people's right to use those…

6. CMV: There are few phrases more inaccurate and culturally insensitive than calling the US president "The Leader of the Free World", but somehow the majority of the US population doesn't bat an eye when it's used thousands of times a day in the media, or in daily conversation. This must change.

7. CMV: Kyle Rittenhouse will go free on all charges and that is justice.
First, let me state I am a progressive and very pro BLM. The bar for conviction of criminal charges is set extremely high in the United States. After the charges for minor weapon possession were dropped on a technicality regarding barrel length, there was nothing left to convict on. It can be very…

8. CMV: Thomas Binger should be disbarred.
Thomas Binger is the lead prosecutor on the Rittenhouse case. So far, it has been shown that he has done the following: 1: Attempted to coerce a defense witness into amending their statement to include events they were not present for. 2: Blatantly violated Rittenhouse’s 5th amendment rights by…

9. CMV: The criminal records of those killed by Kyle Rittenhouse are not relevant to the issue or discourse
Across the internet I've seen a great amount of discussions over the Kyle Rittenhouse case, to me both sides have some good points. I personally haven't come to a conclusion on the matter as a whole yet. However I can safely say that the dumbest argument I've seen from Rittenhouse defenders is when…

10. CMV: LEDs, HIDs, and Halogens should be illegal for car headlights.
Basically what I mean is that any blue/white light headlights should be illegal. Personally in my experience, most blue/white light headlights are so bright that they prevent me from seeing anything while they're shining in my eyes from on coming traffic. I really don't feel that any extra…

11. CMV: Refusing to engage with someone who has different views to you is a sign that you don't know what you are talking about
I am someone who really enjoys discussions and I can find myself on either side of an argument depending who I am talking to. I will often play the devils advocate, and if I'm talking to someone who is (for example) pro-choice, then I'll take the pro-life perspective, and viceversa. Because I do…

12. CMV: It’s not a good thing that the American people can’t resist a tyrannical government with armed force
I see this exchange happen a lot in gun debates - someone brings up the need to secure a free state by the vigilance of the people, then the anti-gun guy counters that some dudes with AR-15s could never fight off drone strikes and US Marines, so there’s no point in trying… I’m not sure if this kind…

13. CMV: YouTube should not have removed the dislike button
The dislike button was good for letting people know what YouTube videos are clickbaits/ things that will just waste their time. There are very few "good" videos which have tons of dislikes but now with the removal of dislikes, people will have a much harder time telling if something is legit or just…

14. CMV: The treatment/status given to judges in the US has no place in a modern society.
I've been following that one high profile trial that has been recorded and streamed everywhere. This is basically my first exposure to a real US court and a trial ever, and the one thing that has surprised me the most is the treatment and status that is given to the judge, the dynamics of the…

16. CMV: Taiwan needs to maintain its dominance in the semiconductor industry to curb geopolitical conflicts.
Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC), a chipmaking company, accounts for 15% of Taiwan's GDP. The company has effectively monopolized semiconductor manufacturing by having the right infrastructure and talent. Its iron grip over the market has positioned the company as one of the most…

17. CMV: We have enough food to feed everyone, the concept of sharing has not been applied well
I read on various websites that we have enough food to feed the world, the problem with starvation comes from the ability to actually give the food. Now, it is my belief that sharing is caring. I also believe that entire concept got really messed up during the Cold War. Basically, maybe I'm really…

We already have The Voice. Any time I hear a singer on America's Got Talent, I ask myself- would they have any shot at winning The Voice? If so, they should go on The Voice and stop wasting everyone's time on a Talent show where there's 50 million other people trying to use singing as their talent.…

19. CMV: Police Should Be Required to Carry Liability Insurance
I believe police should be required to carry liability insurance just like doctors carry malpractice insurance. If a cop gets sued, their rates go up. Too many incidents and the insurance carriers drop their coverage and are unable to work in the field. We've seen too many cops get let off because…

20. CMV: Privileged people try to say all trauma is the same when it truly isn’t
I think you’ve heard it all before. “Don’t invalidate someone’s trauma” Or better yet, “everyone’s trauma is the same.” And for some reason, I simply can’t bring myself to believe that. I think most of you who are reading this are very privileged in general. For the most part you have food,…
