@SpacerSentinel @Ericrse37986 I wish

@Blazeneverhazed @kzodns I’ve had this happen twice. One was insane and using me as a rebound from her 2-year relationship and one was normal just Christian and traditional

@tilitstenk @Aristotle7777 r/swiperhelper is the only dating sub that is honest

@simstrata2 @GarrettPetersen I was very left-wing back then and learning the truth about that case in 2021 made me start questioning my worldview. Now I’d be considered “far-right” by most people

[Luke @rocopera]

@podiatristdon @pennyelizabeths Same in Canada. The only good thing about Conservatives in regards to immigration is that they want to bring in less refugees than the left parties and also deport criminals. But all parties want high “legal” immigration from the third world.

@DontbeMadBro316 @lizcollin Not just arrest, denaturalize and deport, and ban all travel from their country

The most frustrating part about modern discourse is that it appears to be a conflict of values, but it's mostly a conflict of information

Your cousin who's panicking about the Cornell 7 probably has no idea what she's talking about

Your friend saying Lindsay Clancy was framed legitimately believes that because she saw it from people she trusts

Your dad thinks you are evil for not opposing data centers because he truly believes they will turn the water brown

Most people these days have their outrage formed for them by an algorithm and do approximately zero research on top of that -- this happens on both sides, by the way

When you're talking with these people you will look like a monster to them because they think you have the same information they do: a college girl was drugged and raped, a mother was abused and framed for murder

The vast majority of people are unable to revisit the assumptions that led them there because that would be like a fish examining water

To them it is totally and completely true, which means any new information is only an attack

On a personal level, please avoid talking politics with people close to you who think this way. It will ruin your relationships

@ozemiiii @jasperphipps Just drink an equal amount of water to alcohol and you won’t get hungover. At least that works for me

@chilean_catgirl @ShitpostRock From the Venezuelans and Haitians?

@paultrampe @owl_zoomer @Nbtoma A lot of words to say “I have no counter argument”

[Luke @rocopera]

@Nbtoma *gender not humanism. I’m more positive than negative on transhumanism

[Luke @rocopera]

@Nbtoma Based except the wars and trans

@nicholasofronto @CTGvvon11 Not really the Territories, Nunavut is like 85% Native. But in the prairies a lot of people are Métis or mixed more recently and look pretty white despite being classified as Native.

I love the difference in effort in everyone’s background and clothing, Macron is mogging everyone and Merz couldn’t give less of a shit

[Luke @rocopera]

@WeimarHedonism @mauddweeb This is like another Trayvon Martin, Michael Brown, Kyle Rittenhouse, Jacob Blake, Central Park 5 situation. Where the popular narrative of it is bullshit yet everyone still believes it

[Luke @rocopera]

@VoteMeHarder @donkilmer She also already broke rules 3.6 and 3.8 of the American Bar Association ethics code just from being on this case after her statement about it

[Luke @rocopera]

@gattjacob @SpaceWalkerReal @CowboyFrogster Some parts of early colonization, such as in Newfoundland were arguably a genocide. But overall the colonizers treated the Natives relatively well. At least compared to how different tribes treated each other and how the Russians/Soviets and Americans treated Natives/Siberians.
