It's easy to make things worse.

People on my side frequently disappoint me.

@fw_fwd @Math_files If I were imagining, I'd think up something way better than "numbers".

[Fraser Hogg @fhogg2]

@univrsle Don't get baited by simple questions.

@OvercastOnline @jonkay Try searching better next time.

[Fraser Hogg @fhogg2]

@OvercastOnline @jonkay Thank God for AI, keeping me from wasting my time. You could've done this yourself:

[Fraser Hogg @fhogg2]

@OvercastOnline @jonkay You've been pretty quiet about the sacking of Constantinople. Suspicious.

[Fraser Hogg @fhogg2]

@littlelindsay08 @FrancisChartra3 @JackDan110 He didn't insult you. He just said you "stepped in it" which you did.

You suggested someone was "closeted" in an attempt to shame them. Which is rude whether they are gay or straight.

[Fraser Hogg @fhogg2]

@GordTulk @jonkay Don't keep anything important on a road?

[Fraser Hogg @fhogg2]

@jonkay This is designed to increase the number of "hate crimes" in Canada. They want the number of incidents to go up. They need to poke and annoy Canadians enough for "hate incidents" to go up so they can put a government boot on our neck.

[Fraser Hogg @fhogg2]

@jonkay This is nuclear-level stupid.

If your symbols are so important to you, don't put them on the ROAD.

The 1% regret rate in gender medicine is the biggest red flag of all. The strongest possible indicator that research in the field is garbage.

Activists expect us to believe that a man having his penis inverted, which creates an open wound that must be dilated for the rest of his life, has a 1% regret rate.

That women who have appendages made out of their forearms sewn onto their groins — a surgery with astronomically high complication rates — has a 1% regret rate.

That adolescent girls having medically unnecessary bilateral mastectomies at an age when the desire to be a mother and breastfeed is incomprehensible has a 1% regret rate.

Absolutely impossible. Precisely zero chance this could ever be true.

The explanation is multi-fold.

First, no one loses all their friends and gets death threats for saying that they regret knee surgery.

Second, "gender affirming" clinicians do precisely zero follow-up. Just chop off healthy body parts and disfigure genitals and then send the person off on their way. No concern for what comes of them.

Then, there's the psychological factor. The power of irrevocability. When a decision cannot be undone, we are powerfully motivated to keep telling ourselves it was the right one. The self-deception is strong.

The Dutch noted this in their follow-up study of the first wave of men to partake in this experiment. In a 1988 paper, they observed that the men reported being happy even though no actual change in their life situation was observed.

This led the researchers to consider the possibility that in an effort to reduce cognitive dissonance, the participants “simply cannot accept the notion that all has been in vain. The self-reported happiness may have been distorted wishful thinking.”

But this wasn't enough to end the experiment. In fact, the failures noted in this study are what caused the Dutch to turn their attention to children in the hopes of producing more pleasing cosmetic results.

@GMIgorSmirnov I review the games when my opponent falls for my trick.

@BenMulroney My man 😎

[Fraser Hogg @fhogg2]

@Suffragent_ @RoisinMichaux @JohnJamesNI The method actor of being stupid.

[Fraser Hogg @fhogg2]

@BlakeHer_on @MTSlive @misraetel I don't know man. A lot of people devote themselves to drinking, work, and doomscrolling.

Doing something kinda out there like life extension is way less stupid than those things.

[Fraser Hogg @fhogg2]

@kgthorne68 @delieberman @david_parker @donahugh216 I'm so happy for you.

[Fraser Hogg @fhogg2]

@DarkTommySalami @JoshuaKann90249 @LavenderGhast It depends on where you're from what these words mean.

In north America, liberal means something like "mild socialist". Speech rules, employment protections, high taxes, lots of regulation.

I believe in Europe it retains it's original meaning, which is more like Adam Smith.

[Fraser Hogg @fhogg2]

@jonkay @kpssreality In J school we learned that a retraction has to be made as prominently as the initial claim.

Not sure how they could do that.

It's late. Lots of Canadians, and people globally, won't see it, and it certainly worsened relations between natives and other Canadians.
