I’m not even talking about “immigrants.” I’m talking about invaders.

Which is stupid because their ancestors aren’t from this land. And millions of “not-whites” were forced to come here! Not that they will ever understand that.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New PieFed instance: MULTIVERSE⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
Lol!

For other readers: Einstein expanded Newton’s findings. Classical vs quantum physics.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New PieFed instance: MULTIVERSE⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
Lol!
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New PieFed instance: MULTIVERSE⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
I understand. Thanks!
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New PieFed instance: MULTIVERSE⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

Newtonian gravity and Aristotlean gravity have of course been entirely debunked

Can’t speak for the Aristotle part, but yup… that sentence is just bullshit. Don’t say stuff like this in public, man. It’s embarrassing.

Ok, I’m done with this topic.

Have a good weekend.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New PieFed instance: MULTIVERSE⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
I fundamentally disagree with all you said. You’re essentially saying that we must believe in subjectivities, which is a core principle of all religions even if they don’t say so.

By remaining truly objective, I have preserved my capability to be free and to help those surrounding me.

Yours is just some other metaphysical philosophy, and the “soul” in soulism, a concept I don’t believe in at all, should have tipped me off.

Good luck with everything. Have a nice weekend.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New PieFed instance: MULTIVERSE⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

I want you to open your mind to the impossible and question everything.

I can certainly do that.

I don’t really care whether you see gravity as inescapable

Well, this is not helping.

But sorry, absolutely no one can escape gravity. It’s everywhere in the universe. Can you escape Earth’s gravity? Sure. Good luck escaping the solar system’s gravity, or the galaxy’s gravity, or the local cluster’s gravity. So that’s my point. The Wright Brothers “example” is a non-starter.

Everything else you mentioned are not “natural laws.” They are human/social constructs, which you pointed out and we can agree on.

But I thought soulism went beyond that. It’s okay. Today I learned something new. Thanks.

I was about to downvote you for “colored”, but then saw what you did there.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New PieFed instance: MULTIVERSE⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
I guess we don’t disagree, then.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New PieFed instance: MULTIVERSE⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
You technically answered my question, but that verges in strawman territory, man. I was talking about the absurdity of considering gravity a form of human oppression. Can you tell me why I shouldn’t see it as absurd, given that it’s a natural, inescapable law?
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨xkcd #3195: International Station⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
The title text is factually wrong. The sign actually reads: “Welcome space to space the space International Space Station Exclamation Point!”
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New PieFed instance: MULTIVERSE⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

Yes. Gravity does not ask one’s consent before pulling.

Lol you lost me here.

What about oxygen? We’re enslaved by it. We can’t escape it. What are you guys doing about it?
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New PieFed instance: MULTIVERSE⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
Some moderation is important today. I agree with your idealism, but let’s face it. Any unmoderated space would sooner rather than later be run to the ground by a swarm of AI bots psyop agents, spammers and trolls.

Long gone are the days of pristine, unguarded forums.

Oh I agree with you, friend. The problem is that they’ll say that they’re losing ad revenue. So they’ll try and sue, even if they’re in the wrong.

I disagree. I don’t like AI slop. But he’s using AI here in a way that is very much intended. I want to share something in Mandarin, I don’t know Mandarin. If only there was a way to transform my thoughts into Mandarin…

You too take care.

I see. Yeah, I do have friends with go bags. I don’t feel I need one yet, but yes, the possibility to leave “sooner rather than later” is a conversation I started having with my closest ones.

I’m sorry you have to go through all of this too. I personally think it’s some major bullshit how the trans community is being used as a form of division. It’s so vile. Good to know you’re alert and prepared though. And hopefully “this too shall pass” remains true.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
Thank you! Very enlightening.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
Wow, fantastic explanation and instructions, thanks!
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK the Venezuelans community in the US is not representative of Venezuelans as a whole.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
Why did you downvote me? I wasn’t being sarcastic. I was agreeing with you.

But anyway. This was fun.

One last question, what is a “go bag packet”?
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK the Venezuelans community in the US is not representative of Venezuelans as a whole.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
Thank you for providing backup.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
In what sense has the difference been striking?

And how do you safely ferment vegetables?
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK the Venezuelans community in the US is not representative of Venezuelans as a whole.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

So… they’re olive-skinned southern Europeans.

There you go. That’s the phrase that tells me that you don’t know what you’re talking about.

Good-bye.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK the Venezuelans community in the US is not representative of Venezuelans as a whole.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
Indeed.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK the Venezuelans community in the US is not representative of Venezuelans as a whole.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
Working class. Lol.

Anyway. You didn’t answer my last question, and you deviated from the topic. So you might either be an armchair warrior, or a bot. You might not, and you may have some vindication if you answer my question.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK the Venezuelans community in the US is not representative of Venezuelans as a whole.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
And you would be wrong. Those Venezuelans cheering are honestly and extremely happy that Maduro is gone. They were the first ones to leave Venezuela when Chavez came into power.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK the Venezuelans community in the US is not representative of Venezuelans as a whole.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
Thank you. That’s exactly my point. But apparently, non-Venezuelans are ready to tell me, a Venezuelan in his 40s, that I don’t know what I’m talking about.
