  Disagree with that statement. Education and intelligence don’t mean your world view can’t steer your wrong. Ben Carson is both, but that doesn’t stop him from saying insane shit

  Journals are such a scam. Pay us so we can charge other people to read your work

  Oh I didn’t feel like you were attacking me, rather I appreciated you posting her name

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Boss Mode⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I was blanking on her name. Sadly she is almost never given the credit she deserves

  Uh, that discovery actually predated Einstein. He simply explained how the speed of light was constant for all observers

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I wanna ROCK⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Well I caught that

  If you can see it, it’s reflecting light

  What about denna?

  To be fair, not all of the advancements were intentional. Much of modern medical ethics are based entirely on the fucked up shit Nazis did. Off the top of my head though they proved a lot of shit didn’t work and invented a high power electron magnescope. I would have to circle back to fully remember everything.

  Many of them yes, but not all.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is it ethical for a parent to distribute inheritance based on the child(ren)'s mental capacity (aka refusing to give an inheritance to child(ren) with reduced mental capacity)?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  If I were the parent, knowing exactly how little disability actually covers, as both my father and my wife are/were on it. I would help that kid more, and hope I raised my other kids to appreciate that they just needed more help.

  No worries, I was thoroughly indoctrinated as well.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨He was pretty awful too, you know.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I wasn’t saying you were defending him. I was talking about whatever dumb ass wrote the book you read.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨He was pretty awful too, you know.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Until he got the whole country bombarded, tons of them killed, and drove the country into the brink of economic collapse? Poor argument. If you’re gonna say he did something worthwhile take off the fucking kid gloves and admit no matter how absolutely horrific a manner in which he did it, Nazi experiments advanced knowledge of medicine and anatomy.

  “nothing scarier than a monster thinks he’s right with God” -Malcolm Reynolds - Firefly.

  And yes it’s definitely much scarier

  Part Jewish here, yes the Nazi sympathizing was awful. But at the same time, he spearheaded massive improvements for workers.

  Does that make up for supporting Nazis? No. But most people are some mix of good and bad

  Western countries have also poured tons of money and training into terrorist organizations. The US funded al queda. The idea is we can get them to fight our flight for us, but then we’ve got an armed, trained, fanatical group on the loose.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is my voice annoyingly high?⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Sounds fine to me.

  When the preacher saw leto fused with the sand worms he said something to the effect of “so you’ve chosen that path”. Which more than slightly implies he did see the worm part
