I don’t know why you’re using the past tense, the church is still defending them.
- Comment on Is it actually healthy for people to have a place to confess things anonymously? 8 hours ago:
Yeah and the catholics are the most moral and good people around.
Who the fuck sees Catholicism as a proof of success?
- Comment on [deleted] 8 hours ago:
Or, you know.
Humans are a bunch of savage monkeys, and it’s up to them to make up rules that enforce what is best for everyone, and morals do that. And if you sacrifice morals to follow an illusion of success, then that’s a problem and I’m going to call you on it.
I don’t believe in the idea that “if most people want shit then let them have it”.
Kids want to eat kilos of candies, yet you don’t let them eat it and die. Well it’s the same with humans. If a majority is having shit values or morals, then you need to educate them, not let them be. The idea of letting things be is what led to things like the nazis, where no one wanted to oppose them until half of their country was invaded.
And understanding things without experiencing is called empathy, and it’s a trainable skill. Which also needs to be enforced upon people. It’s crazy to me that prehistoric humans were having more empathy than current humans, even though we now have thousands of years of philosophy behind us.
All in all, we need to stop being so complacent about others being shitty, and start enforcing rules and safeguard that force people to be held to a certain moral standard. That’s how we’ll evolve.

The fact that people like batman is a problem.
If you think that everyone should do what works without any concern about what is right, that’s your issue.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 day ago:
I love the fact that the only details you gave about your story are money, skin color, country of origin.
Maybe the problem is that if your character is only defined by their skin color and wealth, it’s not a very good character. You should be able to have a better description of someone than just talking about their skin color and bank account.
So it feels a bit shallow, from whatever small information you gave, which might be what your friend picked on.
- Comment on Can to many hits to the head make a person the R word in animals? My bc loves to run around the house and hits his head constantly but shakes it off. He acts normal and everything exceept4 zoomies? 1 week ago:
Yeah, because there are no ways to talk about, let’s say, brain damage, without using slurs. You knew enough to know it’s bad, and yet you decided to still using it, just with a little safeguard against bans.
Moron.

- Comment on Can a reasonable person genuinely believe in ghosts? 2 weeks ago:
Reason on its own doesn’t bring enough to the table. Without critical thinking (and even with it) reason can lead to any conclusion.
If the data you reason on is flawed (and it is for everyone) then you’ll end up with wrong conclusions no matter how reasonable you are.
- Comment on Did I discover a fake conspiracy theory? 2 weeks ago:
Dude.
It’s a story that basically says “nowadays women accuse you of rape for no reason so you should never help them”
The ones who wrote, believed and relayed this story are just sexual assaulters, nice guys and incels. Of course it’s fake.

- Comment on Littering 🚯 3 weeks ago:
Yes, if there are bullets or parts of metal that fly randomly, it is always going to be a hazard. Even without lead poisoning, I don’t believe that chunks of metal in the digestive system would be good for this bird, or any other animal. And what is the point, what good does a stupid outdoors gun range bring? Even if you think that it’s fine for people to learn how to be better at shooting deadly weapons, what does an outdoors setting bring other than risks?
- Comment on Littering 🚯 3 weeks ago:
Yeah, it is a problem.
- Comment on Littering 🚯 3 weeks ago:
That’s why I also mentioned to stop shooting guns. If you are shooting in such an unsafe way that fragments fly around and get lost, then you shouldn’t be allowed to shoot in the first place.
- Comment on Littering 🚯 3 weeks ago:
I don’t know, humans are good at diverging from their instincts when it comes to letting sick people die, but when it comes to killing less, they cannot anymore?
I think that low-ass standards are what prevent humans from getting any better, if you start justifying mindless murders as “just instinct” then of course people will be fine with it. And funnily enough, that’s one of the main arguments that hunters use, saying that they’re just doing something “natural”.

“Choose lead free ammunition”
No?
Just stop shooting guns and murdering things like a crazy ape?
- Comment on Awkward interaction with my doctor 3 weeks ago:
To not sound like a creepy old guy, start by not being one.
“Attractive woman. 30-ish”
“Nice lady”
“pretty distracting”
“Continue eyes up!”
Like wtf, you are being so creepy about a fucking zipper! Even as I’m writing that I feel like your first defense would be something creepy like “I’m just a man, I can’t help feeling like that” or similar.
Man, it’s just a random person with a zipper open. She wasn’t flirting. If you were happily married you wouldn’t go drooling as soon as you see a woman with a zipper open just because she’s younger and “attractive” as if she’s nothing but a piece of meat.
You wouldn’t have felt so awkward if she was “ugly”, older, or a man; it’s quite clear from your description. The reason for that is that you are a creepy old dude.
And now all the sex obsessed creeps that feel targeted are going to downvote this because they feel offended.
- Comment on How do I make a dog mean? Not that I want that but would kind of like for him to also be our protector much as his. I don't want to hit him or deprive him though he is just sometimes tooo nice. 3 weeks ago:
If you had a kid you would want him to defend you?
Your dog depends on you. He didn’t choose to be with you. If you start trying to make him have a “use” then you just wanted a tool, not a pet, and I don’t even want to interact with you if that’s the case.
That might sound harsh but we’re not in the middle ages anymore, and no one needs a dog to protect them; if anything, you should protect him. He is the one that was forced to put his life in your hands.

Wow your comments are scary.
You are definitely not fit to have a dog right now.
Go read about dogs care, extensively, and in the meanwhile do not try to do anything to this poor dog.
“I saw my kid be nice to people, but I want him to have the instinct to instead beat them up with a baseball bat, how do I do that?”
And the little mention of “but I’d like to not abuse him too much if possible” at the end. That’s really disgusting.

- Comment on Why does most American's give shit to the French when if not for them we would have lost the revolution? 4 weeks ago:
Yeah no, he’s a big piece of shit who did and said a lot of crap,
I’ll quote just two small sentences from the big wikipedia page, and the wikipedia page is only a summary.
“The girls wanted to be raped. I mean, there’s no such thing as rape. It’s only a matter of a girl putting herself in a situation where she wants to be”
On 13 May 2025, Depardieu was convicted on both counts of sexual assault. He was handed an 18 month suspended sentence. The court commented that Depardieu did not appear to have “grasped the notion of consent”. He appealed against his conviction
Of course France, who looooves rapists and pedo (just take a look at random government heads, or if you want to make yourself throw up look up Matzneff) has been loving him and defending him for literally half a century.

Yeah no Gerard Depardieu is a pretty big insult. I mean, it fits with the whole rapist pedo government but still.

- Comment on Are there any women here who felt they didn't deserve to be called women? 1 month ago:
Being called a woman isn’t something you “deserve”, it’s just a gender assignment that means nothing.
Just do your own thing, if you don’t feel like the label fits you, you don’t need it anyway.

- Comment on Do you think conservative feel the same need to burn it all down as everyone else felt when trump won again? 5 months ago:
Conservatives are defined by the need to burn it all down. The point is that they see a horrible past as glorious, torture as duty, and war as peace.
It doesn’t matter who dies or whatnot, everything is just a tool towards this goal, not the actual motivation behind it.
- Comment on How could AI be better than an encyclopedia? 6 months ago:
Your whole logic is based on the idea that being able to do something means understanding that thing. This is simply wrong.
Humans feel emotions, yet they don’t understand them. A calculator makes calculations, but no one would say that it understands math. People blink and breathe and hear, without any understanding of it.
The concept of understanding implies some form of meta-knowledge about the subject. Understanding math is more than using math, it’s about understanding what you’re doing and doing it out of intention. All of those things are absent in an AI, neural net or not. They cannot “see the world” because they need to be programmed specifically for a task to be able to do it; they are unable to actually grow out of their programming, which is what understanding would ultimately cause. They simply absorb data and spit it back out after doing some processing, and the fact that an AI can be made to produce completely incompatible results shows that there is nothing behind it.
- Comment on How could AI be better than an encyclopedia? 6 months ago:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disjunctive_sequence
With your logic, these numbers understand grammar too because they can form sentences.
Even better, anything that any human could ever say is contained in those, and as such, humanity has a more limited grammar understanding than a sequence.
You cannot define understanding by the results, and even if you did, AIs give horrible results that prove that they do nothing else than automatically put words next to each other based on the likelihood of it making sense to humans.
They do not understand grammar just like they do not understand anything, they simply are an algorithm made to spit out “realistic” answers without having to actually understand them.
Another example of that is AIs that generate images: they’re full of nonsense because the AI doesn’t understand what it’s making, and that’s why you end up with weird artifacts that seem completely absurd to any human with basic understanding of reality.
