  • It... Kinda is though? Obviously xenophobia is baked into human biology, true, but why people are not xenophobic is because they've been exposed to lots of different things/people by their parents/society. The reason you're not and I'm not is because we came in contact with lots of foreign things/people, so "our system" (meaning the immediate people around us that had the most impact on us) contributed to removing our natural xenophobia.

    So essentially, other people, who did not learn to reduce their xenophobia, were "failed by the system". Because the system allowed their parents, neighbors, friends to not reduce their xenophobia, like it should have happened.

  • No, men are obviously evil

  • Why?

  • Oh my, so perfect, thank you for this

    Didn't laugh this hard for a while

  • Gotta remember selection bias. The single women are (eternally) on the dating market because of their horrible views, the ones who aren't horrible are not on the dating market anymore or only very very short.

  • I feel elevated by your comment.

  • He's not hetero though, he wanted to "obviously have sex with Bashir", the actor said so. And he was in love with Ziyal, so quite obviously bi in some way.

    Of course this doesn't take anything away from what you said, just a small correction.

  • It's simply not different than on Windows, arguably it's much easier to stay secure. But if you managed it on Windows, the same applies on Linux: don't run shit as administrator (root) and be suspicious if it wants to, backup your stuff, don't install dodgy software.

  • I hope this is a joke

  • Did a week as a challenge/experience. I read up a bit beforehand and just made sure I got enough water and electrolytes. Was getting hungry during the first day and more during the second, but then it just kinda stopped. I felt tired and weak a bit but apart from that everything fine.

  • Obviously, but it gets reinforced there.

  • The thing is, teenage boys learn this behavior from social media. If we had told boys not to use it, they might have not turned out like that.

  • I love you all, but I wouldn’t want you interacting with a 15 year old girl.

    Such a strange thing to say. A lot of the people here probably have daughters around that age. A lot of the people here are perfectly normal people.

    Such a strange thing to say.

    Wait, you include yourself?! 🤣

  • I was recently at a kind of convention on the topic of "how to build a sustainable society". There were two ~40 yr old ladies in the row in front of me.

    One got out this super shiny copper flask. The lady next to her was like "oh that looks nice!" and they start talking about it. The lady that got it out said something about copper, its health impacts blabla and how she got it last week from Amazon.

    And I'm just sitting there, holding it together, almost laughing out of frustration, about this whole situation.

    Like, maybe she did actually need a bottle to hydrate herself outside, but...

  • Thanks :)

  • Thanks

  • Thanks

  • Most of what I believe is from statements made by people who escaped North Korea, and they don't paint a nice picture of their own country. I understand that obviously those escaping will hold the worst views, but it just seems weird to me how everything they say should be fabrication.

    Same with Chinese, I know someone who has left China because of political prosecution, so comparing North Korea to China doesn't make it better in my opinion.

    Also reminder that this doesn't mean China is all bad either in my opinion, it just seems both are far from perfect.

  • I recently read this, is all of what is contained within a lie?

  • I didn't say anyone else was better... Especially not the USA lol
