It's fine for me to rape you and it's fine for me not to.

Should I wait longer and take the Pfizer or Moderna or take the other kind because I can get them sooner?
-
Would any form of protests that you disagree with be allowed in your world?
-
So simple yet it explains my interactions with them perfectly.

If you look at alcohol as a hard drug then absolutely. But if you look at only heroine, meth.. as hard drugs then it takes more than peer pressure.

Haven't played it but the last of us 2 seems to have a great story.

I put both acv and baking soda but I wonder if they cancel each other out?
-
Cool story bro.

Will you tell your kid that they can't play with friends because games are like hard drugs?

Or at least make them less absolutist. In this debate Destiny tries to give arguments using statistics and research for the first 50 minutes with no success. After that he snaps and starts making up anecdotes and surprisingly they work. It's timestamped from the point when he starts doing it. I've had similar discussions with these kinds of people and whatever I say some statistic that doesn't support their position they just dismiss it by saying it's fake or they just sit there with a dumb look on their face not being able to integrate it. But when I tell them an anecdote that's real they are able to understand it and their empathy expands. My dilemma is should I start making stories up when I talk to these types of people? (Of course not to family and friends but to people I won't see a lot.)

This reminded me. LoL thought me that greed kills. I feel like that's an important lesson.

Could you give an example?

@trenton Thanks. They aren't trying to bother me. They just say so much stupid shit that i have to respond and then I just end up frustrated in the end. If I don't take the bait I can let it go and feel great.
-
Yes. ? Wink wink

Chill games can be great. I think they help you learn how to jump perspectives. Plus a lot of kids socialization is done through video games.

I don't have the problem with those kinds of people because i don't care what they think of me so i can just start saying stupid shit until they realize it's pointless and turn around. Those interactions are quite enjoyable actually. It's when the family that I rarely see or classmates do it that I get triggered. Last time I tried really hard to explain my problems with religion in a nice way and she agreed and then few minutes later she invited me to church. That triggered the fuck out of me. Next time I feel my mind closing ill try your approach.

Suprisingly no. ?

Lol what are you doing here then?
-
America bad. ?

Thanks for the responses. Do you have any tips on how to not get sucked in to a debate when they start preaching to me? That's my biggest flaw.

@Parththakkar12 ???

@Heart of Space Look up Greek sculptures. In their time guys with big penises were probably insecure.

Most of the times it's true but of course I'd take a healthy conservative over an unhealthy progressive any day of the week. Of course but that doesn’t mean it's useless to model it. We are now much more conscious than 400 years ago. Doesn't mean we stop. Maybe Bret Weinstein he has some reactionary takes. I definitely fell for JP's strawmans. His lectures are probably still great.

Doesn't the spiral wizard help people go up?

There are men in the video telling the cleric to leave her alone. So it's not just a few women. For me that's enough hope.
