Thanks! You as well!

Nah, man. Sorry about that. I was trying to be big and silly to demonstrate my point and the reason for it. Unintentional assholery, sorry again.

Comrade, I have ASD and while I’m aware I’m perceived that way, it’s either talk like this sometimes or never say anything ever again. I am constantly putting effort into not looking like a condescending ass, so think of how far I have to edit this shit before it comes out of my mouth in order for me to come off as slightly high and mighty.
It’s honestly borderline crippling and I have literally driven myself mad over my inability to be understood before.
I’m a very jovial person and that comes across in my off-screen interpersonal interactions, but I can’t get that to come across in the wild west of internet comments.
But yeah, I’m working on it. Sorry about the assholeishness

Yes, but someone baselessly speculating is different than researchers conclusions, yes? And my response leads to deeper thinking about the possible explanations than thought terminating assumptions, no?
Also, no, subjects were more likely to offer their seat even if they didn’t see batman, meaning it was seeing the change in others brought by the shocking individual that made others more cognizant of their surroundings, rather than needing to directly see the shocking stimulus. See? By trying to make their assumption fit the outcome, you missed information that was in the paper that disagreed with you. That’s why curiosity is more valuable than needing to be right.

What an interesting potential explanation! Guess you’ll have to go out and test to find out. You could also choose less bombastic moral characters to test if the moral judgement angle is also true (like a priest with his tab removed)

Gods I fucking wished any of them actually did liberation. They just buy slaves and then feel bad about it (but it’s okay, the slave really likes them as a master 🤮)
Give me “I Got Reincarnated into a World of Slavery. So I Killed All the Slavers”
The closest I’ve seen to that is “The World’s Finest Assassin Gets Reincarnated in Another World as an Aristocrat”, but uh, it’s really far off from that concept. They do kill a bunch of billionaires buying slaves in the in medias res of the first episode, though. Which is nice

What’s your favorite and why is it From Bureaucrat to Villianess: Dad’s Been Reincarnated ?

The truck pictured is an example of truck-kun, an isekai trope where isekai protagonists get killed by a truck to begin their journey to a life in another world.

Yes, there are plenty of people mature enough to separate the atrocities committed by an MC and their enjoyment of said MC
The issue is the ones who aren’t. And there are a lot of them

I was really uninterested in the fascist is the protag anime, but y’all enjoy.
- Comment on William Sherman is not a hero or an icon to be admired 4 weeks ago:
Fair point. I did, however, specify what group I was talking about, and while there are definitely some woke racists out there, gonna say they’re not gonna be people I’d associate with regardless.
- Comment on William Sherman is not a hero or an icon to be admired 4 weeks ago:
Sherman used brutal tactics to break the confederacy morale, including the burning of Atlanta. So, someone opposing Sherman because they’re racist is someone who thinks the confederacy was actually a good thing. Cause, ya know, they’re racist. Or very stupid. But, I repeat myself.

I mean, are our chicken scratches that different from their arrows and dots? They’re symbols that represent other ideas. Seems fairly straightforward to me.

I’m not being harsh cause they didn’t know. Being harsh cause they speculated instead of looking for the information. We all have access to any knowledge we want, and the link had already been posted in this thread before I said. And the explanation already given, as well.

Brother, you’re not a kick streamer, you don’t need to wildly speculate based solely on your own predetermined biases. Good lord
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/An_Act_for_the_Gradual_Abolition_of_Slavery
The capital was in Pennsylvania at the time, PA state law exempted Congress from slavery prohibitions, but it was legally unclear if that extended to other gov’t employees, namely the president. He kept moving so that he was never in PA for more than 6 months at a time, so that he could never be considered a resident of PA. He did it to prevent having a lawsuit to settle the question if PA’s law extended to his office, to avoid the appearance of a scandal, especially one so closely tied to the controversial subject of slavery.

Hopefully we’re talking about the mc’s appearance. Cause that show was very good and very stressful

Nah, you’re mad at the gross inequities of the system, not at the advancement. There is no mythical perfect past, it never existed. That’s just nostalgia with a twist. People in every age had escapist fantasy. There is a brighter future, but it requires you to make it happen (and yes, that you includes me)
- Comment on I agree 1 month ago:
Capitalist realism. The fantasy is winning capitalism, and the only way to win it is to invent it first.
I like Reincarnated as a Slime, cause community building is first before all else (it does mean meetings, cause that’s what building community looks like)

Yeah, but it’s a fucking can of worms and they collectively have the iq of a toaster. I don’t think it’ll shake out the way they’re expecting it to.

… isn’t using Tor on the traditional internet a very bad idea, since it exposes all users to the tracking ecosystem?
