The unreasonable part comes later 😜

Achievement unlocked! You’ve gained your first unreasonably demanding user!

Nice! Any chance you could have it filter by community? Would be useful as a mod to see who’s downvoting a lot in a comm

Communities will only show up on remote servers if an account from that server is subscribed to that community. To increase accessibility and enhance the user experience, many servers have a bot account that will automatically subscribe to new communities so that they can start receiving posts in that community. That accounts for the majority of the instant subscribers on new communities.

Wait, you’re on a .world account, in a .world comm. How are you replying to this post?

Tldw?

Did you know there’s only one type of humor: yours (and it’s just for this particular mood you’re in right now) …and don’t let anyone tell you any different!

If they do, you’ll at least know they’re wrong. It’s a huge mistake to think that what we laugh at or feel is funny, changes with mood, timing, approach, the people around us, or the kind of day/life we’ve had, or to think humor is subjective in any way.

Humor is yes or no. It’s objective, it’s a science or maths style subject. People who don’t think so are just plain and demonstrably incorrect.

Cmon, you were just asking for that one

You’re wrong

I live in Norway. While it is less prevalent here than elsewhere, please understand that it still very much exists.

That’s like the one thing in his rant that he’s not wrong about

Practically literally undressing

Do a lot of countries have a problem with the colonial past? Speaking for Asia, it’s not really a thing that I’ve noticed there.

And, are you an agnostic or an nonbeliever? Cause he can’t be both.

Oh great, I ended up arguing with somebody who isn’t even familiar with the meaning of the term.

Agnostic: one who is not committed to believing in either the existence or the nonexistence of God or a god.

But, if you wanna try to prove any of your magical, mystical beliefs, go ahead

What magical mystical beliefs? You just pointed out I’m agnostic. By definition, I’m the one waiting for proof.

It’s all ancient mythology made up thousands of years ago. There’s no fact or science in it because it isn’t real.

Nobody in this thread claimed it’s real. The only claim was that they’re not necessarily mutually exclusive with reality. Buddhism for example believes in reincarnation of souls. Good luck proving a negative with that one.

Honestly, militant atheists like you give the rest of us nonbelievers a bad look. You’re like that one vegan who keeps calling everybody Hitler.

No, that’s what some people think religion is. You’re describing a subset of Christianity, which is in itself a subset of religions. Just because it may apply to a large number of Americans doesn’t make it the norm everywhere.

Thank you for explaining a conversation that I had to me, based on the few words I shared here. 🙄 They also literally used Naruto as an example of how chi works, FYI.

you just dismiss it because they settled on using a different way of speaking and describing concepts that are nontraditional in western societies.

That’s funny, I was under the impression I grew up as a Chinese in an Asian society. Guess I was mistaken.

FPTP systems suck more. That’s not to say there’s no issues with better voting systems.

Oh I have friends in that group too. The problem is, I wouldn’t trust any of them to do logic and reasoning. They’re great people, but they couldn’t reason their way out of a wet paper bag. Just two days ago, a group of us were on the subway. Person A commented they admired the balance of person B who was standing without any handholds. Person B started explaining how they had been training their chi, and focused their energy into their feet, since they were young.

By human nature, a lack of authority will lead to people seizing said authority. And / or the collapse of society due to lack of social services, since nobody’s paying for them. Nobody needs to explain how liberal democracy and capitalism can reach a stable state, we’re living in it. Nobody’s ever seen a stable state of anarchy, hence the need for an explanation.
