Fair point. I mean it all derives a lot from the same core of critical theory

@Vido You're a good interviewer dude

Yes, and also capitalism is so naturalised for us. Its 'just the way things are', and so when bad things happen we don't even associate them with capitalism. Reality is blamed instead.

@Leo Gura What counts as a serious post?

Bruddah pulled an Arnold Schwarzenegger

I hope the girl he cheated with was hot at least

Thing is though, capitalism is also really a catastrophe. You have people dying on the streets, many dying in opioid crises, many homeless etc. Capitalist nations like the US wage illegitimate wars like Iraq which cause the deaths of hundreds of thousands.

Bias towards taking the side of one of the mods

Bias against positives of gun access

Makes sense

I don't see why those factors couldn't make a major difference

I see. We were using different definitions of "understanding"

All of us are possible of the worst crimes. This notion of it being in our blood or not is naive. Also, anything can be understood without needing to have a disposition for it.

@Olaf But there is nothing wrong with trying to understand the psychology of people who commit terrible crimes. It would be wrong to class that as justifying it.

@Majed The use of the word "understandable" was a bit suss dude

True

😂

😭😭😂

Hahaha

biasception

hahaha

This is part of why Leo encourages pickup so much

lol true

Bias against sports. I have seen you criticise watching sports as aping in the past. But sports channel a lot of darker impulses in a more civilised manner

Good point
