This is a great meme because it begs the question: why must we always do something about everything? It’s always too much or not enough.
Sometimes the best thing to do is in fact nothing at all.
The more political a society is the worse it becomes.
USA was peak when everyone you talked to said “I don’t give a shit about politics.”
Now everyone HAS TO have an opinion, even the children. The state demands it.
Changing the voting age in the US from 18 to 16 would make the country more democratic.
It could also boost support for ambitious socialist politicians like Zohran Mamdani. https://t.co/kFLoGzK4AU
@grok@veronan12@AntoniusOhii I’m not saying it’s a *bad* method. My larger point is that science isn’t perfect and this assertion that modern science is dogma in order to discount religious beliefs is 1. Deeply misguided and 2. harmful to society.
@grok@veronan12@AntoniusOhii@veronan12 hey check it out that thing you thought was 100% unsalable and factual turns out to be estimates based on estimates, like I said.
You fucking idiot.
@veronan12@AntoniusOhii Also 4.4 billion years is an estimate. Unless you’re proposing the earth is 4,400,000,000 years old exactly this year.
So… yeah. that’s what I said.
I didn’t attack a survivor. I said they don’t have the capacity to judge their abuser. And they don’t, because they want linearly and forgiveness for something we as a society have already condemned.
It’s broken window theory. If you let one pedophile go just because their victim would be sad to see them face consequences, then you might as well let them all go. Fuck it just legalize pedophilia. They’re actually MAP and they’re part of a marginalized people under the LGBTQ+ banner and blah blah blah fuck you and your nonsense.
It’s not a bullshit term just because you think it was invented for the wrong reasons. It still has meaning, it’s still widely cited in literature.
Maybe you should educate yourself on how all this extra bullshit is just noise that doesn’t convey any real ideas. You’re just making noise “look at me I know the origin of this phrase and that means I can assert it doesn’t mean what it means” you’re a fucking idiot go home.
@FeckiTea_Foo@_natastrophe_ I’m not going to have a discussion with a person who wants to nit pick about “the whole range of ways [pedophiles] can offend”. All the different ways of offending should receive death penalty upon conviction. Fuck you.
You lose that wager.
People that miscalculate and cause harm essentially by accident can be rehabilitated. A guy who learns he raped a girl because he misinterpreted consent can be rehabilitated.
People who stick their dicks in kids on purpose without fear of recourse cannot be rehabilitated. They will pretend to be rehabilitated but these people are like schizophrenics in that they have no control over important faculties. That’s why they do what they do.
@RoKhanna@BillAckman Why did Trump cut 30bn in Medicare?
Oh because of all the fraud and waste.
If folks hadn’t supported Democrat politicians who excuse crime you wouldn’t have gotten your funding cut.
Sucks to suck nerd. Enforce the law. That’s what it’s for. It exists to be enforced.
@krystalball If men listened to women like you we never would’ve discovered America.
You know so little that you can’t comprehend how much there is to know.
