If you made reasonable responses and not suggestions that people should get medical advice from specific Google searches instead of medical professionals and peer reviewed science, we wouldn't argue.

It's a lie to claim veganism cures arthritis, I think that's why you won't site sources, you know I'll investigate and debunk them with ease.

The arthritis foundation has studied dozens of studies on vegan diets and arthritis and concluded results are mixed at best and vegan diets are absolutely not effective to the level of making people totally pain free, are not immediate, they don't work at all for many people, and certainly are not miraculous cures as you suggest, your few third party anonymous anecdotal claims notwithstanding. They also mention a number of serious problems that vegan diets can cause or exacerbate especially in people with medical issues.

please note BWCentral.org, makes this statement on their website:

"We have undertaken no independent investigation to verify the accuracy of the information reported by these media sources. We encourage further research to verify any information contained in these contributed articles. We therefore disclaim all liability for false or inaccurate information from these media sources. We also disclaim all liability for the third-party information that may be accessed through the links, material referenced in our emails or posted on our website."

It doesn't mean the information is false, but it does mean - don't take at face value because nothing has been fact checked.

I watched some of this live last night and I found that many of the questions were so basic that they could have been answered with a simple online search. It felt like the panel didn't really do much research beforehand and some of them didn't really grasp the concept of what Facebook actually is.

I didn't watch the whole thing and read a few articles this morning summarizing it all. One question worth answering was whether Facebook sells any of their user data to third parties and Mark Zuckerberg confirms that they don't at least.

They could have asked more questions about what else is done with the incredible amount of data that they have.

Yes, it has been and can easily be abused, even if unintentionally, because someone is much less likely to make an unbiased decision that a video "might be" a dupe if they stand to take all the votes from the potential dupe.

Objective third-party sifters should be the ones deciding if a video should be killed and its votes sent to someone else.

Um...that's legislative, judiciary, and executive.
Also, all 3 of those branches DO have oversight, although granted it is weak and highly politically influenced oversight at this point.

That said, public third party oversight of the police is hardly the kind of power that easily corrupts. Any abuse would be easy to spot and halt with some simple and clear rules. Many jurisdictions already have this, and I've never once heard of the powers being used for personal vendettas against a force or officer....or being abused at all for that matter. Usually they only have the power to suggest prosecutions or other actions (I think they need the power to fire officers at the least), and even that's unacceptable to the police.
The other option, the one you seem to prefer, is to allow the police to have all the corrupting power with absolutely no checks (except those they randomly self impose when it suits them) and no possibility of justice because the entire legal system is in cahoots and thoroughly corrupted, meaning any built in safeguards and oversight are made moot.

Funny to me that you start your post with "no need to politicize this with Obama/Trump or whatever" and end by politicizing it with Obama/Trump and whatever.
