Aye I was making my comment in part to humanize the people we call terrorists.

That’s a mid counter argument imo.

You have a good point I was a bit too black and white with my comment. There definitely seems to be a correlation between size and violence of terrorist groups, and the human rights of the area they riside in.

Also totally agree that it can happen to me. Gotta acknowledge that you don’t really know anything and you are pretty much always just taking someone’s word for things. I believe the Earth is round, but I’m just taking people’s word for it.

You have a point. Though the US white supremesists haven’t launched such organized and open assaults. So maybe it just scales with human rights abuses.

Strange, terrorist organization don’t seem to pop up in countries with better human rights.

First, only the sith (and the ignorant) deal in absolutes. Second, it’s fair and right to feel for the people attacked by the Hamas, and fair and right to acknowledge the apartheid state of Israel that created them.

Exactly, people must remain completely static. Don’t change, its a red flag.

I use organic maps on Android

Businesses have damaged public health for profit so many times that I don’t think there should be any trust any more. All business processes, research, algorithms, etc should be public. No new materials should be used widespread without 3rd party safety testing.

We can’t keep adding layers of permanent poison to the planet.

Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup!

I see you. That makes sense. I struggle with the grayness of reality and the duality of definitions we impose on it yk? Not to say I’m against the definitions, just that things get confusing for me.

Like Matter is just energy, how close does matter/energy have to be to call a perturbation in that system a quasi particle. And, if we think the the fundamental fields physically exist then are they made of anything, and if so wouldn’t they likely be made of some type of energy? Is that energy close enough to call our fundamental particles quasi particles?

If we find out that our fundamental fields are emergent, then wouldn’t all particles we’ve ever been talking about be quasi-particles?

Ah it’d be good to make an edit of that, it felt ambiguous to me too.

I totally agree that medical tech is just insane and only getting better.

That sounds amazing. I’d personally be more motivated with that sub around.

I made on of them little life simulator programs with natural selection and genes and such. I love watching my little dudes evolve.

Currently I am rewriting it to be much faster through multi-threading, gpu graphics, and more! My dudes are gonna be so fast.

Linking a vlogbrothers video is always an amazing play. Thank you

lmao, that sounds like a Stephen Wright one liner.

Nothing is real. No concept you hold is concrete, actual reality. Our brains weren’t built to mold perfectly to the intricate contours of the universe, they were built to make a fast efficient model that does a bit better than our competitors. So, not only can you always be wrong, everyone is always wrong.

This really helps me give people more leeway and understanding. It helps me be kinder, and helps me take the time to understand others more.

Damn. I see how that can be a hard line to draw. I definitely am against that in my immediate reaction, but I also am very disconnected from either community. I do not know how people who have been abused in that way navigate their trauma. Hopefully we all get better at communicating over time. It’s unfortunate how black and white people see things, and how when they see something as wrong they’ll consider it beyond discussion, not worth thinking about. Good luck with moderation in the future.
