"Climate change isn't real because I said so"
"Here are 200 different sources featuring people much smarter than you with substance and facts behind their findings"
"Didn't read LOL"
"OK well here's another 200"
"FAKE NEWS LIBREL LOL"

2021-11-14 at 5:30 PM UTC in World to hit temperature tipping point 10 years faster than forecastSo is this global kabal of scientists, working to prove obvious things that are easily proven, in league with the international kabal that organized the most elaborate election swindle in the history of the world?
Wow that's so crazy that only the most naive and gullible people are privy to this information too. -

2021-10-27 at 4:04 AM UTC in Do circles objectively exist?
Originally posted by mmG Couldn't you call this the result of an intersubjective convenience we have developed to describe things we see in the world? Certainly the understanding of a circle as a concept existed before the concept of formalized geometry at all. We invented the wheel before we invented geometry. The geometric concept of a circle was constructed as a way to describe things we saw in the world that fit closely enough to fall into particular categories.
Well which thing is the one you're questioning the existence of? Are you talking about the rough and ready way in which the shape of the sun or a wheel is circular? If so the objection that examples of circles we find are imperfect is no objection at all, _that_ notion of a circle isn't formalized and is fully embodied by things we might casually say are circular. Cleary such circles exist.
The complaint that the physical substrata of the universe may not support perfectly circular objects requires that by "circle" you mean the formalized geometric concept, in which case see my former comment: sets of points are obviously not physical objects so talking about the physical possibility of them is pointless (heh).Do you think it's possible that the idea of non physical things existing could be an illusion?
I don't think it's illusory, I think it just depends on what you take "exist" to mean. If your definition of "exist" is "there's a physical object or collection thereof to which this word applies" then sure, non physical things don't exist. But again, that's not how I use the word, that's not how most people use the word in every day usage, and it's definitely not how the technical term "exists" works in mathematics, which is probably the most relevant definition to us here what with circles being mathematical objects. -

2021-09-17 at 10:34 PM UTC in Sydney: Army to enforce lockdown
Originally posted by Obbe So I watched the video (wasn't easy, it is pretty intolerable) and I don't think it even answered my question? Let me see if I understand it correctly, Australia has no bill of rights, and this youtuber isn't sure having a charter of human rights would make a difference anyways, all the spying is America's fault, and this invasion of privacy enables law enforcement to control your mind by studying your habits to predict your reactions.
What am I missing?
Yeah, his delivery is annoying but there aren't many who deal with local corruption like him
1. Australia isn't so much a country as a US military outpost, and has no practical sovereignty or foreign policy of its own
2. The country has no hard protections (such as a bill of rights) against or even real oversight for governmental overreach
3. The state as a neoliberal social experiment has made life so easy for most people (see population clusters) for so long that they're largely willing to accept anything
4. Media saturation and political corruption are at absurd, banana-republic levelsThe following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -

Think about it goy. All that says is that we have the same ghostwriter.
Actually Mary Trump authored her own books 📚
As for Trump, he lacks the mental capacity , vocabulary beyond that of a child, or the ability to stay on task for more than a few minutes. The Author that penned Trump`s book “Art of the Deal” describes Trump as an immature childish imbecile. Trump`s ability to properly place thoughts on paper is limited to poor English on Twitter and crayon on walls or construction paper.
Based on his ability to follow a teleprompter one could argue he can’t read beyond a third grade level either.The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -

Literally the only reason to dislike her at this point is because you don't like seeing other people happy. Sometimes she needs to clam down sometimes you do too , whoever you are.
Except the astrology. I can't not make fun of it. -

Others would say no, a weekend is just a societally defined convenience.

Originally posted by Donald Trump OP you're making the assumption that people spend their time in reality, but in fact reality sucks and most people spend their time in fantasy worlds, and this isn't something new - religion used to provide people this out in the past, the various weird social things like wokism, star wars, etc provide this sort of outlet now.
From an evolutionary psychology/HDB sperg point of view evolution selects for what works, not what is most honest. So for instance if people believe a bunch of pretty lies and are productive and have lots of kids, then that will be selected for above someone who is honest about the nature of the world, doesn't care about competing in the world, and doesn't see the benefit of bringing new lives into this world.
As a result we are evolved to be insane.

Originally posted by aldra an underlying reason for social upheaval in the west (especially over the last decade) is an explosion in the inability for people to accept that some things are simply out of their control
Specifically what do you mean by "social upheaval" here?more specifically, that they're unable to reconcile their internal view of themselves with how they are perceived externally - so they attempt to enforce their internal view on the world.
I'm not sure I follow: you attempt to enforce your internal view on somebody else's subjective perception every time you try to convince them of something. There's no "reconciliation" being attempted in the first place.
In fact you impose your internal view upon "the world" every time you do anything. For example you internally view yourself as eating some fried chicken so you impose it upon the universe by doing it and bringing it out of your head. It's not going to enforce itself after all, you have to see something in the world isn't the way you wish to see it, then try to change it.it's similar to cognitive dissonance in that they become frustrated because they cannot reconcile the internal and external interpretations
but in this case it's not because one of the conflicting ideas can't be discarded, it's because they cannot or will not relinquish control over how they are perceived by others.
That IS one of the conflicting ideas not able to be discarded. You're describing the same thing. You just think they should discard one of them, which they cannot, so it is kinda missing the point entirely.they now commonly refer to others' perception of them not matching their own as a form of 'violence' with claims such as 'misgendering' or 'deadnaming' as a common example.
Do you really think they care about your perception or the fact that you are calling them something they just really hate being called?
If you call a gay guy a faggot out in public, they'll consider that a kind of violence not because they want you to not consider them as being literal tinder (although that's true I'm sure) but because you're being an aggressively rude asshole.'transgenders' and people inventing or invoking foreign 'gender identities' are probably the simplest example - people demanding to be perceived in a way contrary to how they appear - but they're only among the more extreme examples, far from the only ones.
Let's say they get really good trans surgery. Like imagine an FtM transgender goes through their transition and in the end looks like this guy:
Would you be willing to say "he/him/his" for them? Or refer to them by their male name?The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire!
