seriously though, easiest way to destroy the function of democracy is to let women vote. when it's only men who vote, they at least hold their own position mostly because of how the results of the decision will impact their lives. the women are shielded from this. second step after giving them the vote is to convince them that they don't need men at all, and they can be the boss and make the decisions.

of course they don't make any decisions, they just agree with the majority of voices they listen to. so when you put them in charge in an organisation, you pretty much are really giving the power to the most vocal and fearful women in the organisation.

Was in a debate with a statist at work today. Every time she sensed I had a logical argument that actually addressed her problem with what I was saying, she would change the subject or equivocate between words or put words in my mouth that we had already established were not things I asserted. She did so many mental gymnastics, I've seldom ever seen such a display up close and in person to such an extent.

At some point she said "just because you believe something doesn't make it true," after demonstrating that she believes stuff just because other people believe it, like majority rule. She became so done with me I had to push her to let me respond to that after a Gish gallop of nonsense and calling me an idealist, ironically. When she finally let me respond I said something to the effect of, "yes, just because you believe something doesn't make it true; just because you believe the majority rule system that violates the consent of the minority that we have is the best option doesn't make that true, and you have not demonstrated any reason whatsoever why it is better, therefore you have failed to defend your position one iota, even if I failed to convince you of mine: you lose this debate, or at least you have not won."

This was also after attacking my goal of theorizing about "pointless" or "useless" things and ignored my logical arguments about why scientific theory is necessary for the engineer to fix a broken machine, even if he cannot create a perfect machine.

I made it clear she knows I don't think of her as a reasonable person and I said goodbye (this was all after shift for funzies, she likes to debate with people a lot, but she doesn't like to intellectualize in a way honest with her self, I now see)

This is the face of evil. Willful ignorance. Which she projected on me of course. Fiat Christians kind of irk me but I couldn't help but laugh at how pathetic her retreats into mental backflips were. It may work on less logical people, because she is genuinely intelligent, but it will never work on me.

Meanwhile in the UK

Yeez, some of the people with a pro-Russian agenda. I really hope someone is paying them, because if not, then they’re just useful idiots.

They’re falling hard for the false dichotomy. Really, dudes, it’s not either-or. You can reject your overlords without humping the other overlords.

The animals recognize it for sure. I've got a crow that tries to emulate speech.

Head down "ooo oooh" " wow" and various noises. She gets it.

Just like bud light died so will cracker barrel. Fuck them to hell. I don’t want tranny shows while I am eating.

i respect if you choose not to drink but every major decision in modern history has occurred over whisky

Why did Russia invaded Ukraine in 2014 and annexed a big chunk of it? That all happened before the "terrorism" you are referring to.

I pray that the people of England have the intestinal fortitude to fight back against the heinous encroachments on civil liberties by their government.

British politicians and bureaucrats have gone made.

I broke something, ran into a error I've never seen before in my 10 years of writing JavaScript :)

I'm not very good at it, unfortunately. That's why I'm amazed at women who are.

nostr

what should i do today?

Wondering about all of the people who said I'm too Normal Human Female, for Nostr.

Normal Human Females are an underrated demographic.

Wish we had more of them.

I'd watch their makeup tutorials.

I like makeup tutorials.

And she has not yet seen socialism work.

Hi guys! I’m a mom, a hodler, and the domestic missionary of the Bitcoin standard. My family doesn’t know it yet, but they’re already in orange pill mode. 🟧💊 🧡 🍊 👩‍👧‍👦 #BitcoinFamily #introductions

I daily worked for russians in literally pure russian company long enough to learn the language and their customs and mentality of today 30yo people. I honestly don't give a crap what you think from far away, I know what I know and you're just assuming I wrote what you wanted to hear to get agitated.

Thanks for paying respect for a big sad event that fucked up adult lives of my grandparents and all their kids, you might work a bit more on that.

It has literally nothing to do with the note, asshole.

Sounds like Melbourne. I assume both share a number of common denominators? *Wink wink*

I’m saying violent crime had fallen since dickens time and then rose rapidly again due to policy decisions.

No

I think I agree with the point you’re making. But it’s also pretty depressing that London lost 200 years of progress.

Had to look up baduk. Didn't know it was also called that

That's an interesting question!

I have a boring question (again).

What water bottle do you have?

I got more awesome socks from @karo and I love them!

It certainly shouldn’t, but people will get butthurt over a leaf blowing in the wind 😂

🫡 that's the joke
