  • I don’t care about leaving a legacy. I’m here to enjoy myself as much as possible in this very fucked up world.

  • Of course he would disapprove. And, hopefully, learn something about human psychology, its relationship with power, and why single-party governments are a super bad idea.

  • Username tracks.

  • Ah, I was thinking it might just be that, but didn’t want to assume. Yeah, I don’t think it’s that big a deal. If the commenter came in and said some misogynistic shit, definitely, but just for commenting? Eh. Yeah, he shouldn’t have, but how much harm was actually done?

  • Adults are just large children. Accept this and move on. You will never understand anything, really. Those that seem to are just pretending.

  • I honestly don’t know what you’re offended by. Maybe I wasn’t reading closely enough, but could you spell it out for me?

  • I think statistics is far more important for people to know than calculus.

  • No.

  • Shouldn’t be removed in the first place, outside of medically necessary procedures.

  • There is so much wrong with what you wrote but I don’t have the time or energy to point it all out. Suffice it to say, you are clearly biased and not very bright. And might be trolling. Goodnight.

  • In order to truly understand this, you have to tear yourself away from the Republicans and start looking at conservative ideology itself.

    At the core of conservative ideology is the very American idea of “pulling oneself up by their own bootstraps.” This is essentially the idea that, no matter the circumstances of one’s birth, one can achieve anything. Historically, this was a rebellion against the classism of old Europe, which was structured around a class system. So, in that context, it was a very liberal idea. The problem comes in when you start to recognize that people are not actual born on a level playing field, financially, culturally, educationally, etc. Today, the idea that everyone can “pull themselves up by their own bootstraps,” foments the lie that we are all born into equal opportunities in life, which is demonstrably false.

    So, the core of conservative ideology is based on an untruth, and it has never reconciled this. Conservatives thus blame disparities in achievement in society on lack of individual effort, and don’t take into account differences in opportunity by birth circumstances. As such, when they see people who haven’t done as well as others, they attribute that to personal failings rather than circumstantial inequalities. When you see all outcomes as a result of personal effort, you can dismiss bad outcomes as the result of a lack of effort, and thereby justify denying the less fortunate help under the notion that it is unfair to the more prosperous because it rewards those who didn’t try as hard with the same outcomes who had to work for them.

    Conservative ideology is simply outdated and uninformed by modern sociological research.

  • Impossible economic goal for anything larger than a township and unbelievable susceptible to corruption as a one-party form of government. No nation has ever implemented it without a violent revolution and government that quickly turns into a dictatorship.

    In short, a nice dream, but a shit idea.

  • I’ve noticed a drop in accuracy as well. I’ve actually started using the finger-drag method to type since it seems to be more accurate.

  • I think people get these stickers for free when they purchase an Apple product, but don’t know where to put it, so they wind up putting it on their car.

  • You’re talking about a change in one of the fundamental forces that govern the universe. Things would start falling apart at the atomic level, including in your brain. I don’t know that you would remain conscious for long enough to observe anything. I don’t think anyone could tell you what would happen because we’d literally have to re-calculate physics without electromagnetism. I don’t even know that that’s within the scope of human imagination.

  • Stupid-ass copium, like all religion.

  • Beer. There’s something about it that seems to lube my intestines and makes everything else come out smoother.

  • Remind yourself that that belief is based on your very limited experience of history. Things get worse and better over the course of time. Your only true grief may be that you may not live to see the tide change. But that’s very different from thinking all is doomed.
