- Comment on Serious statement: I don't understand the argument that not voting for Harris was the morally correct thing to do, because of Gaza. Why does anyone believe this? 2 weeks ago:
No it’s not. Both the trolley problem and the prisoners dilemma are individual event thought experiments.
Real life is different, it is continuous. The rational choice for an individual event can be very different than a continuous one.
Take the prisoner’s dilemma (or game theory) for instance, it is the rational decision (nash equilibrium) to rat your fellow prisoner out but if you have to do it again and again, then the best strategy is to NOT rat out your fellow prisoner (only rat when they ratted you out in the last round).
Reality is often like this, and elections are also like this. It gets complicated real fast.

Realistically nothing. You gain very little by saying something then you lose not saying anything. The only time people somewhat appreciate being talked to is when they already recognise you a little…

That’s actually incorrect, the light reflected by the mirror is time delayed based on 2 x the width of glass on the mirror so you are just kissing a slightly older version of you.

Mooooneeeyyyy
I work as an AI engineer, let me tell you, the tech is awesome and has a looooot of potential but its not ready yet. Because of high potential literally no one wants to miss the opportunity of getting rich quick with it. Its only been like 2-3 years when this tech was released to the public, if only openai had released it as open-source, just like everyone before them, we wouldn’t be here. But they wanted to make money and now everyone else wants to too.

Nope, you’re thinking of taliban. But there is a new ISIS (ISIS-k for khorasan) now who is actually an enemy of taliban (part of afghanistan comes under khorasan and ISIS-k claims that they should rule it.
Both are classified as terrorist groups but the key difference is Taliban focuses more inwards while ISIS is globally terroristic. Like that threat in taylor swift concert was ISIS.
Historically talibans have always wanted to rule their own country while ISIS has wanted to rule over the whole world by creating a caliphate and sticking to a very extremist version of islam.
If I’m not wrong, the whole conflict with Taliban started when US asked them to hand over Osama bin laden, afghan people said no because he was their guest and culturally afghanis go to extreme lengths in their hospitality (like they take offense if you don’t eat in their house, or in this case, they would fight with their life to protect their guest) so basically US declared war on afghanistan and talibans (early freedom fighters) were formed. But over the years they have become much more terroristy (is it even a word?) and violent, such as their attacks in Pakistan for supporting US and so on.
Morally talibans are slightly better than ISIS.
