  1. Happy holidays folks!
  2. I'd argue increasingly popularity of far right politics is a key cause of current negative attitude towards muslims. Far right politics generally engages in criticism/ scapegoating of minorities to satisfy population resentments. So its rise makes muslim communities more likely targets of negative attitudes. The rise of the far right, i'd argue, is coming from at least two factors: 1) Online drift, and 2) Long-term employment insecurity. 1) Online drift. The theory that social media platforms are operated to increase viewer retention, they create algorithms with this purpose. Showing viewers ever extreme content drives viewer engagement and hence retention. Therefore, for example, the would be conservative drifts further and further right. 2) Long-term employment insecurity. Globalisation has meant that working class jobs have been outsourced to developing nations a lot, leaving an increasingly resentful and insecure working class in developed countries. This leads to more isolationist attitudes from working class, as well as a set of resentments that are more easily manipulated by far right politicians. I'm not arguing these are exhaustive reasons for rise of negative attitudes towards muslims. Of course, mass murderers shouting an islamic slogan mid-murdering naturally increases distrust and enemising of islam too. There is no sensible conversation without admitting that.
  3. Well if you don't tolerate, then developed countries will sentence you to prison But maybe you mean tolerate differently than i am thinking
  4. I get you bro. What you say here makes sense. But i still think seeing all pretty ladies as the enemy is a mistake. Too much generalisation, and does their behaviour warrant such a dangerous title of enemy?
  5. I think your generalisation is too extreme, and its abusive to call someone a bitch in that situation. And this enemies talk is something i'd work on. But i can understand why you think the way you do about the enemies thing, and i can understand the desire to call someone an insult in that situation. I do think there is something about the way women are currently socialised which lends itself to a sizable demographic of women being rude, and not getting held accountable for it. I'd be careful of that hatred though mate. It probably is also not just caused by women you have negative interactions with.
  6. Bro you could start with a warm up. Ask some old dude for directions, then a chica for directions, then directions and a compliment. Then i predict your brain will be less risk averse and you will be more likely to approach.
  7. Any time you are getting data it is useful. You go to a kudalini retreat and you find it doesn't give meaningful benefit then that is useful. Because now you know to try something else.
  8. This is such a funny way for the Tate saga to end ahahahaha. Dude has no aura now. Got smoked by a zesty-punching love island bro wearing pink gloves hahahaha
  9. Okay thank you mate. I have something for you to try: 1. Every minute of your lecture, or every page of your textbook, you are only allowed to write down 5 words as notes. (assuming you aren't doing math) 2. Each time you settle down to study, ask yourself 'What am i willing to do?', and keep asking yourself until you find something to do. Try these out as an experiment and see how it goes. If it doesn't work, it just means that maybe its not the solution you need :). All best mate.
  10. Quickest thing i know is this: Put chair on your bed. Lie down. Put feet up on chair whilst lying down
  11. @Someone here Bro trying to confuse me. And it is working.
  12. @Someone here I was saying for a mod to remove your comment or get you to chill. Not make you mod. Edit: But i get the joke you were tryna make tbf. So i may have overreacted
