@JohnSchoffstall @anderoiders @soulkhan well apparently you don't know what your own argument is because it hinged on the proportion of rapists in prison being proof that police are sincerely and consistently opposed to rape - which obviously would be problemetized by the figure of actually occurring rapes

@annielightss @herosradiance you are a transparent ladder-climber who is acting willfully obtuse to court the affection of the dullest group of racists on the internet, hoping desperately for an engagement boost that will carry into a sustainable income

@YankeeReview_ @BrandyLJensen they are on another level

crazy how dumb this person always is

[trans judeo-bolshevik @transjewtalian]

norman finkelstein has always been an unprincipled grifter and charlatan who has only maintained the platform he has because he’s a media hound with a reactionary streak, he has consistently reiterated how unprincipled he is and truly must be disavowed once and for all

[asuka @meetasuka]

so many of the absolute dumbest posts start with "someone said" and end with "I think about that a lot"; of course you do! it's one of the few blips of thinking you encounter in the thought-desert of your daily life

[asuka @meetasuka]

some people don't know how thinking happens and are unable to make a thought occur for themself, so any thought they encounter will immediately impress and convince them simply for having been expressed

@FranklinDaGoat why?

@Shashunnn @Race__Realist @EPoe187 can you not tell the difference between the measurement of height and the measurement of intelligence?

@vorpalvellum @Race__Realist @Michael_Druggan you're assuming away a core issue: adoption studies cannot "prove" that

@jesuslasupajew @mymixtapez you'll meet him someday bro

no, the accounts are fictional and so it is completely arbitrary which one is chosen to be believed

if you were talking about a character in the movie having to choose, it would make sense as a depiction of a "leap into faith" but not for us, the spectators

[Jonathan Birch @birchlse]

Life of Pi is an exploration of Kierkegaard's "leap into faith". By the end you have two accounts - one plausible, rational, horrific, the other implausible, mystical, hopeful - and you have to choose.

@Slucchiurbanite is there a book you could recommend that focuses or expands on what you are describing?
