If there’s one thing I hate above all others on social media it’s when folks “back up” their claims by just saying “there are studies” without linking them.

Where are these studies? If you have them, link them. And no, not a YouTube video or podcast that pulls tiny excepts. The actual study.

Yup, carnivore diet fanatics will be like “I used to eat nothing but ice cream, pizza, and McDonald’s - now I’m on the carnivore diet and feel so much better”

A slightly less shitty diet still isn’t a good diet lol

It’s honestly insane how many people would rather focus on what liberals could have done to make what trump is doing harder than actually focus of what trump is doing

“Learned” might be an overstatement lol - I can train a parrot to say the word “existentialism”, but that doesn’t make him a philosopher

Really should just block the dude and clear my feed, but I figured I’d give him ONE more chance to win that $1k, I’m dead serious about paying out if he can do it

How is it deflecting for me to continue on the original point? You’re the one changing the subject, not me. I’ll happily talk about broader politics as soon as you either show me the video, or admit no such video exists.

That was the original point of this thread.

So no video? That’s weird - if I were so sure that I was right, I’d jump at the chance to make an easy $1k off it - it’s almost like all those screen grabs were taken out of context, as opposed to Musk who is on video doing a very exaggerated Nazi salute twice in a row. Instead you deflect lol

Again, just one single moving shot that shows that those are actual nazi salutes, and you’re $1,000 richer

If this is so obvious, seems weird to not take the money

Go ahead and post the clips those stills are from - if even one is remotely similar to a nazi salute while actually in motion - I’ll Venmo you $1000

I miss when Reddit had good mobile apps

I get what you’re saying, but don’t really agree - PoG is an exploration of the culture by contrast - the “space chess” is really just an analogy for the ideological conflict between Azaad and the culture. It’s also among the best examples of how SC likes to operate. Schemes within schemes within…

Could’ve just saved time and used the latest census lol

I hate any article written in the format of “I have XYZ subjective opinion, you should too”

No list of top discworld characters can be considered complete without mention of Moist or Granny as well

When talking about religion with family and friends who are Christian, I’ve been asked on multiple occasions something like “but wouldn’t it be nicer to believe in an afterlife?”

Fuck. Yes. It would be fucking amazing - but wanting something to be true doesn’t magically make it so

My favorite Discworld character of all time is basically just the last one I happened to have read about lol

Just because you don’t like something doesn’t mean it didn’t happen. You underestimate how much some leftists hated Kamala.

Remember my dude, just block and move on - these people aren’t arguing in good faith, they want your engagement and arguing with them only gives their BS more exposure on the platform

Yup, an expert talking about something that’s highly backed by research will say “we currently have evidence that supports…”

A talking head with a podcast trying to push a snake oil will gleefully say “WE’VE KNOWN WITH 100% CERTAINTY THIS WORKS FOR CENTURIES AND BIG PHARMA JUST HIDES IT FROM YOU”
