How did they plan on keeping it from going from "laser foreskin removal" to "partial laser penile resection"

I'd just watch maybe the first season or two, that's enough to get familiar and the seasons aren't big

It's nice for the Dodgers to make it so I don't have to buy a hat this year by just reusing the one from last year

And that's before any economic impact of what cuts to the federal government Trump manages to make kick in. The Midwest and South especially are about to have their economies implode. I have no idea what happens if Trump hits bottom but maintains his True Believers enough to hold the GOP base.

No fucking tactical awareness first and foremost

Yeah I've had a front row to that and you all (that's inclusive of both sides) fucking suck at arguing, exchanging insults and not actually engaging the core ideas the moment someone contradicts you is not "trying" anything other than scoring internet points with your buddies fuck off
comment in response to
post
"hey this person is also kinda my kind of asshole" is the only convincing that does, insulting people doesn't do shit else and doing it with a slur just makes you a jackass

Doesn't make using it less of a asshole move. You can and should be better than that.

if you don't feel comfortable saying the fucking word when you reference it maybe that's a sign you shouldn't fucking use it

Nah fuck that you can call people out without that kind of unnecessary collateral damage, don't be a shithead

Not engaging is the clearest way to say I don't give a fuck about you
comment in response to

Also, well, if you can tell someone isn't gonna change their minds but you have an audience, you have the fight not to convince the person you're talking to but everyone else that's listening. Never forget you have an audience.
comment in response to
post
Part of it is attacking the information, not the person. People conflate the two and you gotta work hard to separate them. Being wrong doesn't make you a bad person but refusing to consider if you might be is a sign you might be an asshole.

It bugs me that "exercising common fucking decency" is worthy of praise, but yeah, no problem. It's a long road to go down, but only way to get there is to start walking.

Yeah, that's part of the bullshit unfairness. That's why I don't let that shit slide around me. It fucking blows that women so often need a guy to legitimize their shit, but least we can do is make it clear that nonsense won't fly.

They are, but you gotta clear the roadblocks first. And some roads, well, when there's a whole mountain of bullshit in the way, sometimes you gotta know when you're best not bothering and moving on. We don't need everyone, just enough of them.
comment in response to
post
Absolutely. You gotta be able to take it if you're gonna dish it out. People take being wrong way too personally. Being wrong is how you get to being right. Take the L, learn the lesson, and integrate it.

That I disagree with, because the common thought is "the solution is stopping the government from taking my money to give to minorities" from a lot of people, because that's what they think is happening.

There's a game design aphorism that applies here: people are amazing at knowing that something is wrong and fucking terrible at knowing what is wrong and how to fix it. People know things are bad, but the problem is disinfo and tribal knowledge means they're usually wrong about what.

I'm a big believer in the Jay Smoove "what you're saying/doing is racist" instead of "you're racist" school when it comes to that in particular
comment in response to

You're not gonna get anywhere with that, because you're not sharing a reality. They don't see an inconsistency, because the baseline knowledge they have is wrong. You gotta overcome that first. Best way to do so is disassemble that in detail first.
comment in response to
post
Yep, we crushed those ideas last time by, in detail, proving that they were stupid every time they came up until it became common knowledge. Know your shit, have actual primary knowledge, and deploy it indiscriminately.
comment in response to
post
I agree, but my point is that so often the argument is "DEI is making them fire only white people" or "FEMA does nothing but steal money" or "USAID gives out billions of dollars in condoms" and that's not a problem you're fixing by shifting perspective
comment in response to
post
Is the problem framing, or is the problem that their ideas are Just Incorrect? Those are two different issues. Consensus facts but disagreements on how to respond is different from "I think the sky is orange".

You better be fucking right, though. Not vibes or received knowledge or what you think should be true. You ring the bell, you better be able to back your shit up.

I'm becoming increasingly radical on "we need to crush decorum and grind it into a fine paste". Tell people they're fucking stupid and their ideas are bad. Don't just sit there and squirm, if you know someone is wrong and can say how and why, fucking say so.
