Ruth Underwood playing Frank Zappa's music on piano in the piano room at Juilliard and an employee coming into the room saying "What's that?" "That doesn't sound like the kind of music we play here!" "Get out!" 😝😅

Stage blue debater claims that because Hamas hasn't killed every hostage, that they must not be genocidal, because the Nazis "killed everyone."

If we assume this to be true, why would there not be an infinite difference between the tactics Hamas employs and the tactics the Nazis employed. Yet this person keeps talking with confidence because "Israel bad and genocide genocide genocide genocide" is his new religion, fully implanted within him by the vast strength of the mainstream.

Then pagan gains turns into full on red, and screams insults and "shut up" while getting objectively annihilated on the question of if mandatory conscription is slavery or not. Actually a very good study case on how red will react when someone else is smarter or right.

I submit that egoism belongs to the essence of a noble soul, I mean the unalterable belief that to a being such as "we," other beings must naturally be in subjection, and have to sacrifice themselves. The noble soul accepts the fact of his egoism without question, and also without consciousness of harshness, constraint, or arbitrariness therein, but rather as something that may have its basis in the primary law of things:—if he sought a designation for it he would say: "It is justice itself."

- Nietzsche

"Dealing with conservatives is like wrestling with a pig." That can be very true. Here is an example to hammer that home.

Knowing that someone would rather shoot you or threaten to rape your family rather than admit their worldview is wrong COULD save your life in the future.

If a fundamentalist, especially an american christian male, was somehow forced into thinking his worldview is refuted, he would turn more violent than anyone could imagine. It would be like watching a demon possessed animal.

Remember 2 things.

1. You will never relate to ideologically possessed people. They are far too different from you.

2. The reason behind their actions isn't because they are scared, extremely fragile, have their own version of the truth etc. it's just that they want as much as they can to give in to the impulse to be evil. This is not a demonization, and it can't be stressed enough. There are simply people who want to be evil.
