Empirical evidence wins out in the end but… it’s not that simple. One name said a lot about this : Thomas Kuhn. Try giving The structure of scientific revolutions a read whenever you can. It’s old and there are more contemporary work, but Kuhn is still a reference in epistemology.

I literally agree with you and you’re arguing with me. That’s… awkward.
- Comment on France in Shock as Conservative Leader Embraces Far Right 2 weeks ago:
True enough, but that wasn’t my point. I was referring to the French FN/RN.
- Comment on France in Shock as Conservative Leader Embraces Far Right 2 weeks ago:
Well I mean you can’t base everything on it and France is following an international push to the far right, but the is also a documented involvement of and financial ties between the Kremlin and the French far right. … That being said, they would surely have won even without that.

This comment needs way more approval

Alternatively, people may think they’re expressing “criticism” while just being blunt and cruel. Criticism doesn’t mean belittling someone.
And I know too much about this, as a teacher. Some of my colleagues wish they were little tyrants…

Another French here. That’s definitely a thing!

- Comment on What were the best and worst games you played in 2023? 6 months ago:
Best : BG3 Empyrion (you love sandbox games with endless content with very little guidance? Try it, I’m on HWS RE server and after 260h I’m still just scratching the surface) Marvel Midnight Suns (top notch in many levels) Chrono Ark (one if the best roguelite deck builders for me) The scroll of Taiwu (perfect cultivation sandbox RPG, official translation should come in 2024)
Worst : Not much… I just don’t understand why I can’t get into Thea 2. It’s supposed to kinda be my dream game. Yet, I’m always bored after 30 min.
Shoutout to Archmage. It has a long way to go but it could possibly be my GOTY 2024.

It’s been a long time since I’ve read such a sensible comment from this situation.
To OP, I don’t know how to put it, but I feel there’s no real side to pick, expect for zealots and fanatics. A colonizing oppressive state is 150% wrong. Execution of civilians and exploiting your people misery to lead them to a theocratic disaster is 150% wrong.
I’m from a both jew and muslim family and… I’m glad they feel the same way.

Although I’m not totally satisfied with what I wrote. I may write a new thread about all this whenever I have time to think about it better.

Hmm. If I meet people who are deeply anti religious, I prefer them to show hatred equally to all of them. So I know there’s no ethno-cultural aspect ti their hatred and it’s strictly philosophical. I also understand specific reject based on life experiences.
Overall, I feel better around people who are at least a little open to understanding some people want to believe in something and not necessarily belittling religion. But I deeply resent people who aggressively tried to convert me too their religion. And I’d never try to make someone who believes an atheist.

Didn’t read past the second line, but fyi, I know there are former muslims. My mom is one of them. I should have written more carefully “except former muslims, obviously”.
The overwhelming majority of Islam focused critics, at least in western countries ? Culturo-fascists and white supremacists.

I’m going to write something unpopular, and I’m not even sure I agree with it, but it’s a 9gag PTSD…
Although I wish Reddit will soon rot and I’m an atheist, we all know who the people focused on criticizing only Islam are. And we all know what their focus on this religion tries to hide…
I prefer the company of people who are either neutral about religion or hates them all equally.
