In my dreams

I get what you’re saying but the sexism and racism lead, in this case, directly to slavery, so maybe blow shit up before women and blacks become slaves. Again.

America is toast. Best we can hope for is a military coup. Military purge is in progress. At this point I think threatening to nuke Canada is the red line and only if prevailing winds are on my side.

Left and right are living in alternate realuties and this can only lead to violence. If the military chooses right then it’s world war 3.

The use case is that research must not focus solely on white men. Look at heart attacks in women for an example. Medical research absolutely requires diversity in order to serve the needs of everyone.

Ok, lets apply the paradox of tolerance to islamic views on women and lgbtq people. I remember clinton meeting with the taliban while everyone thought ferengi were hilarious. Im that old. and modern misogyny is no fucking surprise. They called the misogynistic ads ironic, and sending kids child porn was ironic, and 4chan racism was ironic. None of it was ironic and the stupid assholes in society have only been strengthened by the internet. Freedom of speech allowed nazis to walk the streets of america and now you have the result.

I read that book and it felt like satire, but apparently this extreme belief in gender differences is the norm and im a freak.

Im ok with that, but i do raise it to make the point that some of us just dont see your sex/gender as particularly important information and anyone changing their gender is a massive threat to the status quo beleif that such things are not only natural and right but the basis for who you are and how to interact with you.

I remember people calling for sex/gender to be declared as part of your reddit profile. This is why, they cant interact with people as humans, they need a sex/gender to tell them how. It’s very disturbing to me.

I tried to read the wheel of time once and what i learned is that gender is the ultimate defining factor in some peoples lives. It is their whole defining principle in interacting with others. Everything about you is a direct consequence of your sex. Mess with sex/gender and you destroy their entire way of interacting with humans. Hunans dont exist for them, only men and women. The sexes are actually incapable of communication or cooperation of any kind. Effectively different species. This makes trans people a literal impossibility. A leopard cannot become an attack helicopter. A trans person threatens their world view in a fundamental way.

These people also want control of everything, probably due to inability to cope with anything they don’t understand, which is a lot. I don’t understand being trans, but i undetstand the right to health and happiness and i wish it for you.

Never let a bad assassination attempt go to waste. Imagine being sent back in time to stop hitler and giving him a shot in the ear.

I googled turn off the fucking ai and the overviews are now gone. I’m surprised it’s that easy to turn off.

Cognitive dissonance is the mental discomfort people experience when holding conflicting cognitions. It is a signal that our thinking doesn’t make sense and we need to change something to make that feeling go away. It is not hypocrisy or having contradictory thoughts. It’s a feeling we all experience. IMO exploring our cognitive dissonance is a useful way to better critical thinking. The people you are talking about are probably not experiencing cognitive dissonance as they have long since rationlised it away.

This is everything I wanted to say and it’s why I’ve started going back to reddit to get some different viewpoints. This echo chamber is intellectually unhealthy.

The top 1% decided long ago they weren’t going to bring everyone else with them. You are cattle to them.

Rally around the Trump, Musk, Kennedy

This guy was very confused. Apparently he killed himself in a violent pro Trump spectacle to inspire people.

Had to throw in the toxic masculinity:

Masculinity is good and men must be leaders. Strength is a deterrent and fear is the product.

Most people want to see themselves as having overcome some sort of adversity to earn whatever they have in life, and that creates a bias to see one’s own life as unlucky and miserable. I definitely went through a phase of seeing my life this way as a kid.

This is your own bias speaking, you assume most people are just like you and that your own personal experience is universal.

That is very toadlike

"The human touch” at the end of the day, is just warm, soft skin paired with a caring voice. We have already replicated the caring voice.

Spoken like someone who plans to marry a sexbot.

I sit in the corner by myself on break and when assholes ask me why I respond with ‘it’s my break’.

And lemmy celebrates whichever rapist they favour. Sick.

Someone beat a rapist. Yay.

The opinion of who leads the country and his voters are more important. It’s like the west trying to install democracy and progress in afghanistan. The locals aren’t having it.

I did, didn’t work.
