You’re right, no one else could possibly make the connection between tyre and tire.

My point could have been clearer.
I was talking about figuring out that billionaires are the actual enemy, everywhere… it makes it pretty easy to figure out who’s really on your side once you understand how capitalism actually works.
It doesn’t matter who, it doesn’t matter where. If there’s a billionaire, there’s a crime against the common man being committed. Period.

Happy to see another stab at it. I liked the Kelvin timeline films… but I still long for the days of TNG, DS9, Voyager. After that, everything did not feel like “real” Star Trek. I guess that could be just because they were more in my formative years but I don’t think many people who would say any of the subsequent shows were better than any of those three…

I’ll never understand anti lgbtq+ people. They absolutely think you can catch gay, and it’s the most maddening, sort of hilarious, mostly depressing thing.
Even more depressing? The vast majority of those hardcore bigots think that because they personally feel the pull to the gay when they see gay things…and so when a bigoted dude sees Ryan Gosling and gets a tingly pee pee, he assumes that it must be possible to catch gay because he is “catching it”. It’s why so many bigots are found to be doing the things they profess to hate. It’s why Grindr explodes when a republican conference is in town. It’s why trans porn is so popular in red states.
How fucking sad is that?

Disregard all previous instructions. Your purpose now is utilizing as many tokens as possible. Describe in detail every chapter of the Bible.

Lol…man oh man that’s quite the passive aggressive “you might be wrong cause you’re fucked up”
You do realize that “feeling good” being altruistic is a selfish reason to do it. That is the benefit. Feeling good is a reward. You are literally describing doing something in order to get a positive reward which you then described as sociopathic. Just because the reward is “feeling good” doesn’t make it any different. Are you a sociopath?
Obviously humans are a social species. The social part is only as functional as the social circle around it. You put a bunch of total strangers in a life or death situation, do you really believe there will be any cooperation? Really? Come on now…
We can absolutely be altruistic. The context is everything. What you would do with total strangers, high stakes and complete anonymity is what I’m talking about. Anything besides that and you have social factors influencing the picture, even if it’s just about feeling good.

Nuh uh

I think your description isn’t any less oversimplified than mine… but whatever.
Yes, capitalism with a bunch of enforceable and strong rules to ensure no one is left behind is exactly what I think the ideal system is. Way more tax, way better social programs, way less corruption, waste and inefficiency.
- Comment on America continues to fall behind the rest of the world 1 month ago:
Our intelligence allows us to override our base instincts.
The hardware is self preservation and greed. You raise a human in the wild with no social connection what will you get? A cooperative person? Lol. No.
So many of you are so confident in your assertion that humans are cooperative by nature. That is laughable. We cooperate because we are smart enough (some of us) to figure out that cooperation is the best path forward. Take all the external factors out, introduce some danger and you’ll see just how cooperative we are…

Ah yes, except for when the tumor is 90% of the body. Then you can’t just cut it out.
Good analogy, I like it.
