Now it makes sense, thanks.

Do you have specific examples? Particularly in the case of Islam, “doubt” was heavily practiced. I understand Chinese medicine was a lot of tradition and faith but not much of that is considered “valuable” today. I don’t think you can really separate “science” from “doubt” but happy to be wrong.

How is that a “scientific” discovery?

Can you provide any examples of valuable scientific discoveries that didn’t involve basic skepticism or doubt?

There’s now a recommended lint rule to enforce this. Also if you still have some class based components, the same applies to lifecycle functions (you shouldn’t set stats in there either). If you ignore these rules, your components will be far more complex than they need to be.

I feel like “famine in Gaza” has been “imminent” for 18 months at this point. There might really be a wolf this time but can we at least start our cries for help by conceding the previous times were false alarms?

My girlfriend of 20 years was raped by her own father from the age of 13 and he was never convicted, the police didn’t even try to contact some witness we gave them. This case has fuck all to do with that. Neither does my “engagement”. Cringe.

Not sure why you’re making it personal… but I can guess. This case has nothing to do with a lack of rape convictions. It’s an absurd non-sequitur.

Weird attempt at saving face but ok.

But you’re ok with imprisoning people for simply writing words on Facebook? Even though… <picks random unrelated crime> domestic abuse is hard to prosecute?! (See how I can reduce the matter down to an absurd degree too?) It was a beloved natural landmark on a legally protected site. Shit take.

Would you extend the same leniency to the non-Mensa members who said dumb shit on social media during the Southport riots? Just curious where you draw the line.

Let these idiot vandals off-easy with a senseless crime because rape is hard to convict? What has one thing got to do with the other?

You’d realise it was actually true if you used a higher percentage of your brain.

So you’re saying we need a TV billionaire from New York to fix things… right?

So what you’re saying is, immigrants and the Ukraine war caused these price rises?

Imagine putting some cringey TERF on the same list as the oligarch and dictator. Get a grip.

He’s clearly a lying grifter but at least his message is a good one (for now).

Great take. It’s slowed down a lot but that finale was excellently handled and arguably a highlight of the entire series.
