  1. I understand your POV. However, as you said, it is important to consider the context when interpreting word usage. There is another meaning for the word predator which you just ignored. And that was obviously the meaning I meant. I propose that my statement above was both accurate and profound when properly interpreted.
  2. Just ask the Ukrainians if they are cool with that. It's not like we are forcing Ukrainians to fight. If they want to surrender to the Russians they are free to do so.
  3. Neuralink is not implanted in normal healthy people, it is implanted in people with severe disabilities. Like if you have a spinal cord injury you might want to take a gamble to improve it with a Neuralink implant. Not a big deal.
  4. People who are full of shit are not necessarily reliable when polled about their own happiness. But also consider that the whole point of bullshit is to make yourself temporarily happier at other costs. For example, believing that your enemies will got to hell can make you temporarily happier.
  5. Look, bro, there's something called alliances and alignments of interest. That's politics 101. The US does not need to be some sort of Mother Theresa charity. We help Ukraine because Putin runs a corrupt mafia state. You want that mafia state running 1/3rd the globe? Are you insane?
  6. Haha, YOU ARE GOD, YOU ARE THE WORLD. There's no one else who could enjoy Creation but yourself, since all others are your Creation.
  7. Don't forget, man is a predator. And women are attracted to predators.
  8. Humans tend to be entitled when it comes to not dying.
  9. It's hard to be happy as a Christian because Christanity is full of bullshit
  10. I have a simple theorem: Every finite system will at some point break down in a paradox. Finitude itself is paradoxical.
  11. If you objectively look at the levels of corruption in the Republican party and anti-woke movement you will clearly see it is way worse than among Dems and Progressives. Just look at the recent developments with the Supreme Court, or the MAGA coup, or all the shady people that flock around Trump like Ruddy Guliani, or the NRA. All these things are patently, shamelessly corrupt at this point. The right-wing in America has shamelessly debased itself as it clings to waning power. This is not merely my biased political opinion. It's way deeper than that. And if you cannot see this then you are the biased one and I don't know how to help you.
  12. Ironically MAGA conservatives are not even classically liberal because they support a Christian theocracy and overthrow of democracy. That's the absurdity of our times.
  13. Bernie is not a socialist, basically.
  14. If there are no paradoxes, isn't it a paradox that we have a word for something that doesn't exist?
  15. If you live in the right city, yeah. That doesn't work so well in the US.
  16. Then you gotta distinguish between which side is more Spirally developed. It's not about who's subjectively better, it's about who is more openminded and tolerant.
  17. @Danioover9000 How many people died to develop safe airplanes?
  18. I consider Bernie that. He's a very sensible progressive. He's not overly into woke culture war issues, which is where the left goes most wrong.
