- Comment on Why does China have so many multi billionaires if they are aiming to be a communist country? 1 week ago:
So you cannot inherit a 1.1M house or artwork? No one would be able to own property in new-york?
Also one needs to account for inflation. In 100 years 1000000 would be equivalent of what is now 20000.
- Comment on Why does China have so many multi billionaires if they are aiming to be a communist country? 1 week ago:
The net worth of the world’s billionaires is over $16 trillion in 2025¹. 1% being 160 billion. On average, around every 4000 USD send to the most effective charity saves someone’s life². So around 40 million children.
This doesn’t account, of course, for the difficulty of selling large amounts of stocks without them losing value and the fact that, as low-hanging dangers are depleting, each subsequent child would be more costly to save.

It’s usually “how to succeed in life”, not “realization of abstract k-skeletons as k-skeletons of intersections of convex polyhedra in R^2k−1 in life” if that doesn’t make you money.

Of course this is true, but it this combined with the other points teaches girls that it’s normal for men to use violence and therefore they should fear them.
Don’t see these points in the snippets you provided. Some men use violence, and they should account for that when calculating a path. Don’t see a better way to teach it.
Yes, but what if the government is the one supporting these ideologies.
Scientific consensus can be taught in a neutral way.

- Comment on Is it even possible to drop 20 lbs in a month? Are there any diets for people who want to go to the extreme? Kind of like celebs do for roles? 5 weeks ago:
The normal pace is 1 kg/week (~2lb), faster diet will lead to your body malforming, but it’s definitely possible.
Also exercise is not as important as proper diet. It’s better to do no exercise and eat little than burn many calories and eat even more.
- Comment on New textbook for 9th grade students in Greece promotes right and alt-right ideology 5 weeks ago:
Well, most men are objectively stronger than an average woman, are they not? It’s not about superiority, it’s about a fact you need to keep in mind before picking a fight.
Attention: not with their own and personal, political, ideological criteria, but with the criteria of the society, as they are expressed by the education policy of the current government. (emphasis mine)
You wouldn’t want every anti-vax and Holocaust/Holodomor denier teacher to teach only their point of view, right? They should make clear, at least in a neutral way, what the government/societal consensus thinks.

Ghosting someone is never an ethical choice and you know it, but I guess the level of “creepiness” depends on wording.
like bro you LOVED me without my input?
Isn’t that… The backbone of all classical literature?
You’re doing it for you not for her and that’s absolutely not love, it’s probably mental illness
My thought process was explained in full and honestly. You have a right to suspect me lying, but why would I?

Yes, I meant your replies in this thread. I have no idea what your post history is and no desire or reason to look it up.
I assume you have already looked it up after writing that; I would have a temptation. I want to clarify that the post about solar inclination-based geolocation where you were also present was a part of a separate thought process going on for a few days and it being posted close in time was just a coincidence.
Just the way you are replying to everything and being overly analytical on everything. You seem to be trying to attack this problem like a programmer who is programming something. Dude, real life ain’t like that.
I thought “incels” (in modern degradatory definition) were supposed to be emotional guys who hate women because they don’t have feelings they want. Not people who approach dating rationally and try to estimate each other’s feelings using best scientific methods available. Never heard Sheldon Cooper, or Data from TNG being called this way.
BTW, I think you said you read just the post to her before getting this reaction, you never said anything about the comments.
How much dating experience do you have?
None, and I was never accused in being improper in trying to get into one—because I approach the subject rationally. I would never approach anyone in that way until I’m reasonably confident they are interested in me in a sufficient degree. Finding the most compatible person may be a lifetime-long quest, but it pays off at the end.

And for the love of everything holy and unholy, stop doing awkward shit like this! Your post is cringe enough, but hey, at least you are thinking before you do it. But your posts, are making me think you haven’t changed at all.
You mean comments?
Changed compared to what anchor point?
I read your post out to my gf just now, and she rolled her eyes and said, “Oh god, one of those guys. Is he an incel?” Then laughed.
May I ask what exact part of my post lead to her suspecting I was one (apparently in modern definition)?

I’m horrified and appalled by how the community perceived my intentions; at large, judging by the number of votes on comments in the conversation below, placing no doubt in them being nothing more than sick and twisted desire for attention.
The formula as I see it in my head is quite simple. I would want to hear this said to me; it would make my day; wouldn’t they want to hear it just as much? I waited for long enough that no special feelings are currently present.

Per ICD-11, pedophilia can’t be diagnosed if attraction is not acted upon or is distressing the patient. Also it doesn’t count cases where attraction is not primary.
