“Why do people call their government right wing despite not having slavery?”
Since when is the lack of healthcare the norm, and healthcare the “leftist anomaly”?
The US really made the world so much worse, it’s crazy.

- Comment on Why do i see so many americans obsessed with the concept of "this is a thing that [Ethnicity] does" 1 month ago:
“Americans” are not an ethnicity. Talking about the culture of a country is nothing similar to attaching innate characteristics to a person based on origin/skin color/etc.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 month ago:
This does not require ethnicity at all.
If someone is discriminated because of an ethnicity they don’t actually have (let’s say a Mexican being targeted as an “arab”) should they not get compensation ?
According to your logic, you need ethnicity to give compensation which means that you require victims to have a specific ethnicity to be recognised, but it is absurd. What makes victims victims is what they went through, not the reason they suffered abuse.
And this doesn’t even apply to colonization as in this case most of the times the former colony is now a country, and as such you can give compensation to the country and its citizens, no ethnicity required.
Either way, ethnicity is not needed.

I think that being a colonizer is not something a government should be. So yes, definitely, such a treaty is bad.
A government should be treating people as equally as possible. Ethnicity only brings unnecessary division.

Well, american culture making such a big deal about ethnicity even when “positive” did influence a lot.
I never understood why the N word is racist because of history, but then being black makes it fine to say. It’s still linked to a racist background, but it seems like americans consider that minorities can never be or do anything racist.
And I mean, in 99% of cases the concept of ethnicity is (or at least is used in a way that is) purely racist. Apart from a few studies on genetic specificities, it has no purpose at all, and definitely no purpose in daily lives and governments.
What’s weird is that no one with a sane mind would say that a woman saying “women are bitches and shouldn’t be able to work” isn’t misogynistic, but when it comes to racism people are making up exceptions left and right.
If you focus on ethnicity, chances are you are racist, no matter the justification you put behind it.

Of course it has to be linked to the country, because you can’t try to make the world better if it’s not about your country
- Comment on Would you consider me a “dry texter”? 1 month ago:
Just imagine someone like you talking with you. How does it work?
I can’t even imagine that it would last more than two messages. It’s not a conversation if only one person is talking.
- Comment on Are mood problems a “turn off” for people even when they’re hard to manage? 1 month ago:
Seeking help is definitely the way to go as others have pointed out.
If you don’t care about others feeling hurt, well then just think about it rationally: you probably don’t like getting hurt, so you can understand that they don’t either and trying not to hurt others generally makes the world easier for everyone.
Now I would also say that aside of that, you should apologize to people you hurt. Not specifically expecting them to forgive you, but because it also logically makes more sense as it might make them feel less bad about your behaviour.
I would overall try to think about things more rationally than emotionally because it does look like your emotions are your main source of problem right now, and for example thinking that hurting people is going to make them improve is absurd.
And thinking rationally would let you realize what behaviors are not okay, and let you apologize/warn people about it even if you fail to control yourself. While people would still completely be entitled to distancing themselves from you if your behaviour hurts them, it might at least give them some insight that allows them to get less hurt. And once again, less hurt is generally positive.

Are you really suggesting that you expect CEOs to be competent? Scamming people and exploiting workers doesn’t require skills, except if immorality is one.

You did, and if it wasn’t intentional then you’re the one needing a better education. Actually, this is probably so basic that it’s not usually taught.
- Comment on Are disabled people and the elderly going to survive another Trump presidency? 5 months ago:
Ah yes sorry, you said that Trump was actually less or equal of a threat for survival than Harris.
“If it was possible with A, then it is possible with B” implies that B is less restrictive than A. Which in this case means that you said that surviving Harris is more/as hard as surviving Trump.
You can’t do the “it’s not what I said, calm down bro” lie on a written conversation.
- Comment on Are disabled people and the elderly going to survive another Trump presidency? 5 months ago:
A guy who wants the death of many people and goes more and more insane/senile being put at the head of a country after multiple comments admitting that he’d like to form a dictatorship is, for you, the same as an averagely crappy politician being elected?
At Hitler’s election would you have said “heh, minorities had it hard before, but they’ll survive” too?

- Comment on Do you prefer to buy games on Steam or GOG? 7 months ago:
The inability to remove files from your drive is quite a lot.
And DRM-free games on steam are not that many, most have at least something that closes the game if you don’t have steam running and I’m a bit sick of having to use goldberg every time I want to use a game without starting steam.
Of course GoG has a lot of (pretty bad) issues, but it’s like comparing a cold to a cancer, it’s absurd. Steam is actively destroying both game ownership (by allowing more and more DRM methods, now with games telling you to accept 5 different terms of use all indicating that you are heavily tracked while using the game for example) and game quality by encouraging the shittiest game, with a main page being completely unusable if you don’t filter out keywords such as nudity, nsfw, mmorpg, etc. GoG isn’t to that extent. Other things exist and if for example Itch had a better interface and search system it would unequivocally be the best game platform I am aware of as of now, sure. But trying to say that GoG and steam are the same (or that GoG is worse) is really not possible to do unless you actually don’t give a shit about games.

Hm, do I prefer renting games, or owning them for the same price…?
