Are you trying to make it into a competition? Most people can list hardships like that, and sure, I do not doubt that you have a hard life. But as a matter of fact, you are able to read and write, to have the internet and to know how to use it, to have been educated enough to know how to learn things from the internet (and not fall into sects and conspiracy theories), to be in a country that supports you and doesn’t just kick you in the street, to be openly trans without being killed, to speak the language of your country (I assume), to be in a legal situation in your country, etc. Pretending like you have no privileges while you are writing posts online to say that it’s people’s fault if they have a shit life is not working.
Also, according to your logic, your situation is also your fault. If education is so easy to get and everything is in your control, why don’t you have an expertise in a subject that cannot be done by AI, and get a job?
Saying that people’s shitty situation comes from them being lazy or whatever is just allowing the world to stay a shit place by refusing to admit that things are unfair from the start. Education is not something obvious, for most people and in a lot of countries. And the fact that you’re trying to focus on either your situation or mine (I never said I was not privileged, and unlike you I’m not going to start listing all the weird shit I had and have to go through, so I don’t see why you felt the need to say that I have an internet device) while being unable to think about people who are in very different situations from yours is a bit alarming.

Is this an answer from an LLM or something? I’m confused.
Also saying things like that implies that everyone having shit lives are in their situation by choice. It’s typically something that only people with nice lives say, because they want to delude themselves into thinking that they deserve it, and that people with shit lives deserve it too; it’s obviously easier than to admit that you are lucky and privileged and that the world is an unfair place filled with undeserved suffering.

Because education has been used as a class discriminator since forever.
You want people to stop preferring football over books? Then make schools fair and equal, instead of favouring dominant classes and money.
The reason Trump got elected is because he used fascism as a tool (the same kind that you’re using actually, “make America great again” doesn’t convince people who think everything is perfect), not because of education. And it’s not like education prevents propaganda from working (it often helps it actually) so this is just bullshit.
If you want people to be smart, first stop this moronic class discrimination.

Amazing to have a second point that explains how you could have the guts to post the first point.

I don’t go to your history, I just have tagged your account because many, many times when I see one of your posts or comment they have some form of creepiness to them. And so after seeing so many creepy posts with the same username, I started seeing the pattern.
And for example, this justification of “engagement” seems already pretty suspicious on its own.
If you are actually genuine, then you really, really need to work on the kind of things you’re posting and the way you present them, because they make your account look like a troll account of some sort. And you might need to search for interesting discussions, rather than engagement. Quality over quantity.

So someone who was saying that violence, accidents, and rape are all in the same category, is now wanting to know how to hide a dead body? Yeah nothing suspicious here.
- Comment on What are some of the biggest continuity errors in Star Trek? 1 week ago:
I mean, they were still trying to show it as James Bond-cool (which I mean, works if you see that James Bond is pretty problematic, but most people don’t)… They were shown as a bit evil, but also as the “cool, edgy dudes that do what needs to be done”, but other shows managed to do worse somehow.

Let’s not forget the part where they want to go in the future to stop control because they think they can’t destroy it, then control gets destroyed, then they go in the future anyway.
Also, I don’t think any star trek depicted section 31 in a way that didn’t make the show worse, but Discovery really went the extra mile

The church in Discovery.
I am convinced that they put it there without having an explanation yet, then forgot they did it when they made the explanation.

- Comment on Why are tv shows about billionaires so popular? 1 week ago:
Because people are brainwashed by capitalism, and so while they hate the rich (which is normal) they also admire them and feel like they got rich out of hard work. And then there’s the ones that are even more obviously not rich from any kind of work, and people see it as “unfair” and get even more involved.
In the end, it’s a toxic love-hate relationship that just shows how capitalism won by distracting and burying shit under more shit.

It’s funny how you’re conveniently ignoring the things I say that make your points invalid.
But your strawman is already debunked by things I previously said.
What I’m proposing gives no one any “power” because I never proposed a change in the legal system. I said that people should believe the victims, and you’re transforming that (completely in good faith, I’m suuure) into “the legal system should condemn anyone who ever gets accused by anyone of rape”.
You’re showing more and more that you’re arguing in bad faith, your arguments are weaker and weaker (I mean, you didn’t even really have any in this message), so at this point it’s seeming like you’re just feeling personally attacked. So either you’re so brainwashed by some shithole like 4chan or whatever that you feel attacked by things that don’t concern you, or they do concern you. Either way, I’m not going to waste more time, you’ve shown enough of your cards for anyone to know who you are, I’m not going to inflict myself more of your presence.

Yeah because if you, as an individual, believe that someone is a rapist, they go to jail.
Genius.
You must be a second account of someone I debunked before, it’s not possible that you would just spit out the same exact shit.
Did you get banned and made a new account?

Wow, rapist supporters always have this shitty “argument” that never works. Are you so scared of being accused of rape?
Anyways, this doesn’t work because there is a pretty big amount of reasons to not believe you here (duh). And in the case someone accused me seriously and credibly of rape, then yeah, I would expect people who don’t have evidence pointing one way or another to believe the victim. Sorry, you might be used to your sense of selfishness altering your moral beliefs but it doesn’t work here.
Also, even if I were a rapist as you said, it would not bear any weight in my argument that victims should be believed. If anything, if even rapists were saying that, it would just prove my point even more.
You’re just using the same pathetic attack that everyone who tries to defend rapists ends up using. Are you all brainwashed clones, or just one guy with a lot of fake accounts?
And nice link, but
There’s a big stretch between claiming on a case by case basis that justice has been miscarried, and making a flat out statement that […] victims shouldn’t be believed a priori. I guess your rules only apply on others, once again your moral stances seem to shift with the wind.
20 accusers is a form of evidence, but not 1 accuser? Then how many is evidence, two? Three? And according to your argument, evidence doesn’t matter since what matters is innocence until proof of guilt, which implies being judged and condemned. Unless you consider that you have the authority to decide who is guilty and who isn’t, and then your whole initial point doesn’t exist.
Of course you believe your family, but why? Because families never lie? No, it’s just that you respect your family and you understand that claiming to having been raped is a challenge on its own. Yet you consider that if a stranger does it, they’re lying unless they can prove it. That’s called being a self-centered jerk.
In the case of an opposition between two unbalanced sides, not deciding is siding with the more powerful side. If you see a nazi in the street beating up a black guy, and you think “I’m not going to take a decision because maybe the black guy started the fight, I don’t have enough information to defend either side”, you’re not neutral, you’re a nazi supporter. Same if you hear a black guy say that he’s been beaten up by a nazi without proof of it, and you decide to stay “neutral”. Once again, that’s a stance that is known to be wrong and to favour the oppressors.
I really need to just write a book that debunks the stupid pro-rapists arguments and send it to all of your group whenever you send a comment, I’m sick of having to write the same things every few months because you and your clones are so scared that someone would accuse you of rape or something. Always the same bullshit over and over, the “you are a rapist. Now prove that you’re not” sentence written almost word by word, all that crap that even a 10 years old would be able to debunk but that for some reason resonates in all the rapists defenders.
What goes through your mind, really? “But what if people say that I raped them”? Because I never felt threatened by that, but maybe that’s because I know that I never raped anyone.

Justice is generally not carried at all for rape accusations, cases are not even recorded and cops tell victims “I would have done the same, shut up slut”.
I am also not saying that all accused rapists are guilty, but that you should believe the victims unless you have strong evidence of the opposite. Just like you should believe victims of discriminations that explain it to you, instead of saying “I don’t see it so it doesn’t exist”. The concept is the same, you side with the side that is being treated unfairly, not the opposite.
How many cases of rape accusations do you know, that seem fake, compared to how many seem justified, and how many of those end up with the perpetrator condemned (or even judged)?
Believing victims doesn’t bring anything bad, it just gives you a mindset that allows you to see further than the rape culture that society is drowned in. And when someone is accused by 20 people of rape, instead of immediately thinking “these 20 people are greedy liars that are just preying on this poor, innocent celebrity”, you start wondering how you can get 20 people to go through the humiliation of declaring themselves victims of rape, which is seen as shameful (for some reason), without having done anything wrong.
And also, ask women (not only, but statistically it’s a sad fact) around you if they’ve ever been assaulted, raped, or whatnot. Even though most probably wouldn’t want to tell you, statistically I guarantee that a bunch of them went through something like that and never talked about it. Your reaction is typically why, they know that without hard proof (which generally doesn’t exist) people will immediately believe the assaulter instead. And according to your stance, if your mother tells you she’s been assaulted 30 years ago, your answer would be “Do you have proof? Why have you waited for so long? Is the perpetrator famous?”. But of course you wouldn’t react like that, because once it’s someone that you know and respect (I mean, I don’t know your relationship with your mother), you realize how hard it is for them to go through that, and that even talking about it is a big sacrifice.
So basically: if you don’t believe the victims by default, then you believe the rapists by default. And society already defends the rapists. So yeah, I’m not going to wait for a court to give their judgement to have an opinion, and without any strong evidence that the victim would be lying (which basically never happens), I’m going to side with them.

But you are not the justice system, you are an individual.
Are you defending Trump every time someone says he’s a rapist? If a cop kills a black guy out of racism, but is found innocent by the court, do you defend him? What about DSK in Europe, that raped a maid for no reason, but wasn’t found guilty because he had a lot of money and influence, yet bribed her after the trial with a huge amount of money so that she doesn’t appeal? What about Matzneff in France, who gets rewards for books where he explains in details how he raped a lot of kids and loved it, do you defend him? All these people are innocent, in the view of the justice system.
If you say no to those, then where do you draw the line? Where is the point where suddenly, the justice system becomes your guide?
Innocent until proven guilty is a huge basis of the justice system, yes. But you supporting victims that declare they have been raped, whether or not the perpetrator has been judged and condemned, is not going to change the justice system.

Considering people innocent until proven guilty matters for the justice system. An individual’s opinion are not bound to this.
Rape in particular sees an extreme minority of perpetrators being condemned. If you decide to then believe the legal conclusion, rather than the words of the victims, you are siding with an unfair system that protects rapists.
But sure, with your logic you shouldn’t call a guy like Trump a rapist because you know, he hasn’t been proven guilty. Way to go.

It would be terrifying to be in a world where opinions need to be backed up by a court of law, and yet here we are.
If you don’t believe victims of rape, you’re on the side of the rapists, and I’ll tell you fuck you for that.
And the fact that you had to intervene to say “no but it’s good to defend rapists” says a lot about what your opinion on the matter is.

I didn’t draw any line. But if you think that physical violence, or an accident (even if caused by stupidity or whatever else) is as bad as an act that is designed to destroy someone completely, then you are part of the problem.
Are you one of those people that defend rapists by saying “innocent until proven guilty”?

But then the show is not educational? I am confused by how you can ask for an educational show, mention HIMYM about its morals as an example, and then say that it might be a parody.
So you want an educational show, or a show that pictures characters trying to be educational within the show, to other characters?
