My bad, I forgot we were still on Reddit where nothing is serious and everything is a joke.

You’ve clearly not been on the Internet long if you haven’t seen someone spout that exact line of bullshit as absolute truth before.

Maybe save your jokes for your comedy hour instead of thinking every discussion needs your half assed jokes? This isn’t the meme community.

Nah, I’m just done with handling ignorance with kid gloves. It’s how we got to the state of the US today.

You clearly put forth your unsubstantiated theory that Nessie has active camouflage and it totally explains the murky photos. You took the LACK of evidence and used that as proof of something even more extreme and requiring of even more proof. When asked a very simple question like “well then how would it work with a stationary camera?” suddenly it’s “well I was just playing make believe, you need to touch grass!”

Nah, fuck your goal post moving ass.

Oh shut the fuck up. Telling someone to touch grass after spouting your delusion? People like you need to be told to shut up more. We shouldn’t entertain your nonsense. Trying to call it a joke after the fact is the only laughable part.

No, it’s delusional. Writing fictional stories is fine. Trying to warp reality and evidence to fit your fantasy is delusion. “This would be cool…” is not the same as being told why you’re scientifically wrong and then going “but what if it were true anyways because I want to believe?”

It’s the same shit with Bigfoot. As more and more “evidence” is debunked and the case becomes more obviously just a mistaken identification at best you get these whack jobs talking about how Bigfoot is a dimension jumping shape shifter. Not because they have any actual evidence, but because “this is the only way to explain why we got zero pictures despite decades of trying”.

Imagination is fine. Delusion is not.

Yeah, but when it’s clearly a hoax and you have someone going “yeah, but still, what if it’s really X?” it makes it really clear how badly our education and mental health systems failed.

And it knew to react to an unmoving camera how? It just perfectly puts out its camouflage cloud every time it passes a camera? You realize that makes zero sense, right?

Some people have noted that it’s very likely she doesn’t have “4 days to live”. It’s more likely she’s heavily on pain meds and was told “if you don’t start dialysis or get a kidney transplant, you will die in 4 days” and in her state misheard it. She’s a young healthy person and renal failure doesn’t work like that.

be more charitable

Says the guy who said I shit on his birthday cake lmao. I’m not offended btw, I thought it was hilarious. But like, I think we’re more like brothers who pick on each other now. I’m sorry, but that’s just the rules. I don’t make the rules. I just think them up and write them down.

Honestly? I just don’t really like that reddit behaviour of regurgitating the previous person’s comment and passing it off as your own unique idea, that’s all.

“We know who they are. We don’t really need due process. I’m not one of those people so nothing bad could ever happen to me so I don’t care”

Seriously, the amount of times I see violations of civil/human rights being acceptable because they’re “the enemy” is really sad. Do you have no self awareness? That’s EXACTLY what they’re doing to you. Stop being a pot of crabs pulling us back in. Be better.

So … What you’re saying, it’s that there would be less oversight when it comes to choosing their targets. Almost exactly like OP said. Almost like they were speaking in broad strokes and you failed to notice any nuance.

I’m at such a loss for words having read such ignorance spouted as truth. You are truly a master sophist.

A magical person delivering mail instead of a soulless automated machine? The value of human experience and interactions? I didn’t say it was the core message, I said it was a message in all his movies. A “theme” or “motif”, if you will.

Tell me you’ve never seen a Studio Ghibli movie without telling me you’ve never seen a single Studio Ghibli movie. Literally every one of them contains some “advancing technology isn’t necessarily a good thing and the old ways have value” message. If AI were personified in one of their movies, it’d be a oozing black oil demon monstrosity spitting soot into the air.

It’d be like Banksy doing advertisement for Nestle. It’s just so contrary to the message they put out.

Yeah, I goofed. You’re right.

Well fuck me you’re right. Ok fair enough

In fairness, the Second Lady has traditionally taken on various projects, although usually of a kids/education/health/humanitarian angle. Nancy Reagan was particularly well known for her various causes. Michelle Obama was advocating child literacy and healthy lifestyle I believe.

Not defending her at all, but I think it’s important to keep our facts and histories straight.

Edit: I dunno what I was thinking. Those are all First Ladies. You’re right, I can’t think of shit a single second lady has done, or even who any of them are. I retract my point.
