  1. Alt-right ideology is the most toxic thing to be consumed by. It makes your life a living hell. I’m speaking from experience here. I think it’s really good that former alt-right-wingers share their story and potentially help others out of it. We generally also need a lot more admitting of being wrong by right-wingers, which Leo brilliantly has talked about.
  2. For that group, it doesn't really matter. At least not in the short run… I'll give you that!
  3. Many who vote for Trump believe that he is the evil they need in the fight against an even greater evil. Biden has just contributed as much as possible to strengthening this narrative while simultaneously weakening the Democrats' major strengths in the fight against Trump, which are decency and integrity.
  4. Biden continues to be Trump’s biggest enabler. After the pardon of his son, the right's whataboutism will be completely invincible for God knows how many years.
  5. A sum of money to a charitable cause on behalf of the person. That was my brother’s gift to me and my parents last Christmas. I really liked that!
  6. The world needs more maturity, not man-children like Musk and Trump who can't handle being opposed or not getting their way.
  7. There’s a time and place to sit back and simply observe the universe going about its business, with a smile on your face. When your children are being raped or when your country falls into the claws of an undemocratic egomaniac, those are not such times.
  8. I've never quite understood the idea that a virus created in a Chinese lab is somehow more «natural» and healthy than a vaccine...
  9. I sure view them as that. It wasn’t like this before though. Maybe just 12 years ago they were kind of a “nice” version of the most conservative party in the Norwegian parliament. Now they remind me more of, as you said, Russians.
  10. Coffee doesn’t work like this for most people who are used to drinking it. You sound angry btw. Coffee must have caused you a lot of suffering…
  11. Why? Nothing has matured me more or improved my self-confidence more than this. I also wasn't very aware of what I’m really into until I had gained a lot of experience.
  12. No, don’t do that. That’s a recipe for a really miserable life. Also: If you go around being afraid of and hostile to large parts of the country, you may actually end up in some kind of trouble you're preparing yourself for, but it will be entirely your own fault.
  13. So this is what it's like to live in a black-and-white world: You expect that the most dystopian movies you've ever seen will become reality if an election doesn't go exactly the way you wanted...
  14. Stores are legally required to inform that the location is under surveillance. There should be signs indicating this.
  15. I got more and more depressed by listening to it, so I ended up taking a long break from news and media. During that break I noticed how peaceful and free of all that cultural war drama the real world everyday life actually is. I ended up having a moment where I realized how much worse my life had gotten after getting into all the right-wing stuff. Then I got into personal development, discovered Leo, took the life purpose course and had a week long solo retreat. I don't think I've hated anyone since then. I’ve gained a much better critical sense and now I’m aware of how the news and media pretty much only feed you the worst and most dramatic stuff that’s happening in the world, and I’m too concious to let myself be manipulated by rage-baiting anymore, even though right-wingers are incredibly good at it!
  16. I've never hated Trump or right-wingers. I basically wish all people the very best. On the other hand, I was a right-winger during the first two years of his last term and I actually supported him then. I was completely brainwashed by people like Jordan Peterson and was so opposed to the woke movement and convinced they would turn the West into Soviet. That was hate.
  17. Why would Trump need alcohol? His personality is basically that of a drunk person: Loud, overly confident, has no sense of social norms, rude, mean, sexually harassing and eats at McDonald's.
  18. This only applies to two of the studies (numbers 1 and 4) and they really are separate studies. The first one examined data from over 500 000 children, while the fourth one examined data from over 650 000 children, using different datasets and methodologies. The second study is a nationwide study from the US. The third study includes data from several countries, not just Denmark. It's not specified that it was funded by a specific vaccine manufacturer or foundation... https://www.who.int/news-room/questions-and-answers/item/autism-spectrum-disorders-(asd) Looks like the WHO has the same numbers.
  19. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/12421889/ https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/23545349/ https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/24814559/ https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30831578/ Nah, I don't need Chat for that, but I'd probably prefer it to you and RFK here too!
  20. I asked ChatGPT if vaccines cause autism: "No, vaccines do not cause autism. Numerous studies have shown no link between vaccines and autism. The claim that vaccines are related to autism originated from a now-discredited study published in 1998, which has since been retracted due to serious ethical violations and methodological flaws. Major health organizations, including the CDC, WHO, and the American Academy of Pediatrics, support the safety and importance of vaccines in preventing serious diseases." So much for that "science" and those "people behind him who are genius"...
  21. It's finally here. No, wait! President Camacho actually cares about America and wants to make things better for everyone...
  22. I’ve lived 30 years as a white male on this planet and I’ve never been «white shamed»… Not even once. Sounds like right-wing gaslighting.
  23. These people wouldn't have lost their minds and been so afraid of losing their democracy if they hadn't been exposed to way too many authoritarian and undemocratic tendencies from the left. Even though Trump is one of the most black-and-white cases since World War 2, it's still not entirely black-and-white.
  24. Behavior like this is exactly what leads to Trump being president. Wouldn't surprise me if this has already been picked up by some right wing influencer. They are amazingly good at finding stuff like this.
