Thanks for admitting that everything on your s(h)ite is BS that deserves to be pointed and laughed at, Mikey-boy.

Fact: Everything on your s(h)ite is BS.

We’re educated enough to know the difference between proven facts and your lies that never had the right to be listened to - least of all accepted - in the first place.

To be clear, I’ll be the first to admit that us white men aren’t the Paragons of virtue some white surpemacists act like we are. But this seems like it’s taking it too far. Also, how in the actuall fuck does sexuality have anything to do with Earth’s habitability?

@Conscience #207867
with TERFs calling trans people paedos and rapists it's inevitable there will be violence on trans people

Making TERFs stochastic terrorists.

@Vgal #207795

They may wish violence upon us, they may celebrate it, but to do it themselves? No, "that's what men do," and if there's anything that they are very certain of, it's that they are not men or anything like men.

It's good to read and let's hope so, at the same time, humans being humans, they're often self-conflicted, of course. I.e. "Good Christians" shouldn't kill either.

if you had one really violent day … one rough hour, and I mean real rough

Would that be not criminal acts being temporarily legal for everyone, but cops being temporarily allowed to act like the Judges in Judge Dredd?

Well, some circular pseudophilosophy is designed to bind minds for as long as possible, to exploit. We could call that mind corruption and pollution, a limbo-conditioning that rots the mind, attempts to deprive the individual from the capacity to reason correctly. Mind is a better term than soul, it refers to the actual mind and its processes and games, rather than only to the brain organ/substrate producing it, while avoiding the false premise that the mind is supernatural or of supernatural origin. "Soul" is best used metaphorically for "person".

High control groups, cults, dictators and businesses profit from a generally ignorant and misled people. Critical thinking skills, knowledge and social awareness empower people and their rights against such threats.

Pollution for the mind. "Macro-evolution" denial (the fact that it's the same at larger scales). Irreducible Complexity nonsense too, apparently. Everything so confused in a mash that my first sentence is a good description.

It’s too easy to think of all the ways that would go wrong. That’s what you get when someone lives outside the realities faced by ordinary people and whose brain is a circus peanut.

A random mathematician's or English professor's personal beliefs, do not alter a reliable scientific consensus in biology, geology, etc. If they're doing biology, they're publishing in reputable peer reviewed non-predatory biology journals, not self-publishing propaganda or preaching via the creationist Discovery Institute imprints...

Also relevant would be gish gallop and populism: imposed or popular doctrines are still only that, unless they are actually supported by strong evidence. Science is awesome, because it's universal and non-dogmatic. It's possible to use it to assess what is tenable, or to confirm that an idea is a religious doctrine, outside of science. Don't try to corrupt science and knowledge with it, admit that it's a personal belief, a religious position. If you appeal to pseudoscience, fact checkers will expose the misconceptions.

The air in the lungs has mass. Old measurement methods were unreliable with a larger error range. The claim was that the weight of the person varied slightly after death. Even so, this could not be replicated reliably. You would then push the god of the gaps into the air anyway. Or in the leaking or evaporating water. Just like we haven't discovered a soul in the brain, so you will claim that the pineal gland is a gateway to the supernatural, without evidence. Or that the brain is only an antenna to the metaphysical soul, contradicting the evidence of neurology and the correlates of consciousness it has discovered. Motivated pseudointellectual pseudoscientific reasoning, to entertain dogmatic views, fantasies and to deny the reality of death.

Classic of pseudoscientists: "More research is needed...", God of the gaps, etc.

Then it's unlikely that an expert would spend much time with Gumby when detecting that the purpose is the imposition of false a-priori premises.

Another classic:
The creationist method: Here are "the facts" (a conclusion interpreting the origin myths of an old book, like the Bible). What can we find that confirms it? (confirmation bias fallacy).
The scientific method: Here are the facts (observations of the natural world). What conclusions can we derive from them? How can we verify and test that these conclusions are valid? How can we improve our method to make more discoveries? (observation, hypotheses, scientific theories, replication, double-blind experiments, etc.)

Carnist: DON’T DE CLAW YOUR CATS! THAT’S ANIMAL CRUELTY!!

It's not difficult to understand, except by "denial logic".

Have you witnessed how they're prone to infections, needing a special litter for a while? How it's painful, causing them to hesitate even when moving from a 1in object, as if it was a high jump down? I did. Do you know that without claws, they tend to bite more, increasing the odds of infections for family members? That if they need to climb to escape from a threat, they no longer can? If meeting another type of threat like a catfight, they're greatly disadvantaged?

If you know cats, you also know how they're curious and may sometimes find themselves outside even if you're generally careful. Then if they can go outside and have their regular vaccines and flea treatments, they're generally happier and healthier.

Ironically, you sound like the type who might try to feed only vegetables and grain to obligate carnivores, due to general ignorance.

Chicken is one of my favorite foods, there I admit that I don't look at materials showing their suffering everyday, that may not only disgust me but possibly also depress me. I suppose that it's a bit like the sanitary infrastructure I'm used to. Not being a plumber, when flushing organic material, it's almost like if it vanishes into another dimension. It may not, but I hope that the city management uses the best environmental and safety practices to deal with sewage.

I recycle and I isolate the materials of the same type together to ease sorting. I try to do what seems feasible.

Interesting indeed, how anti-science trolls were infesting those forums. They still do today, including gaming platforms and exploiting social media. This includes Russian disinformation trolls. Apparently also some from Iran, Israel... And US organizations like Turning Point USA, the Groyper neo-nazis, etc.

Now, the question is, where did he pick all that self-loathing?

The mention of “race traitors” does not come from nowhere. He did not invent that notion. Where did he hear about it?

I was born in a Christian high control cult with many taboos. It was abusive and made me realize that it could not be "God's organization" or "the truth". I was young and curious, Harry Potter didn't exist yet. I visited an esoteric library. I felt strange sensations because I was still so supertitious and anxious. But years later after practicing a few meditation, divination and magic forms and having re-studied the world's religions and the origins and formation of their holy texts, interestingly, I left that behind. I began to doubt in the supernatural and I was busy with practical things, work, a relationship, etc. I could explain more satisfactorily my own strong personal experiences, including what seemed to be spiritual or mystical. And I knew that to improve one's life, actual actions are needed, rather than praying or trying to manifest them with imaginary games. A number of years later I was strangely open to study geology and biology again. I had been seriously sick (likely SARS-1), hospitalized and then had some time to think and was reading on the various medical procedures, the Coronaviruses, etc. Eventually I was in awe when I finally understood evolution and how obvious it all was. I still can be. It really helps to understand life and much about us and our behaviors. More deeply than any philosophy or religious tradition. It's based on the observation of the real world.

As for gay people, I knew some since young without knowing they were and they would not tell me until much later. Because they knew that I was raised in a bigoted cult, the same as theirs in some cases. A few of my best friends are. It doesn't change anything to me. Who cares what people sometimes do in private when it's with consenting adults? Why should people and their lives be redefined by our own bigotry, because of what they may or may not be doing a few hours a week? Like if we all were sex-animals only, without a more complex life and other activities. Mind your own business, instead of ruining your health or that of others with obsessions... If to you, all gay people are bad people, it's because you've not actually known gay people. The same with magicians or people of other religions, in fact.

Ray Comfort #fundie

Like for "Born Against Christians", it also reminded me of a parody with "subliminal" messages in parens, notably, the manual page of the xsublim xscreensaver module. i.e.



xsublim - Display (submit) "subliminal" (conform) messages (obey)

[...]

       --delayPhraseMin ms 

               The  (despair  quietly)  minimum number of microseconds to (you 

               are being watched) pause between displaying each  phrase.   The 

               default is (surrender) 5,000,000.

[...]

But this is obviously a fallacious ad hominem attack. Out of valid arguments, frivolous insults are thrown. It's also borderline hate speech. And evidence of arrogance that would prevent someone from learning. But in this case, malice may also be involved: it's a fraudulent business model weaponizing ignorance, for the benefit of a narcissist. To the informed, it's also hypocritical and ironically funny: for Comfort, ignorance is bliss. There are archives of videos and quotes, evidence of all the incoherent ignorant nonsense Comfort promotes.

Paranoid political conspiracy theories to deny and demonize knowledge. Fabricated controversy: in science, evolution is not contested. And it's not because science is closed and dogmatic. There just isn't a viable alternative explanation supported by all the overwhelming evidence. And when that happens, it's still an improved scientific theory of evolution. For instance, the New Synthesis, to account for the new knowledge provided by the discovery of the DNA.

Gina Carano #wingnut

And to think I used to be enamoured with her image as a recognizable name for women’s MMA and the inherent beauty of physical strength in the female form. It was a hilarious contrast to fragile masculinity and easily questioned heterosexuality for being attracted to such women. Ugh. Just goes to show physical attraction makes a spark, not a hearth. It’s who someone is under the surface that truly stokes the fire or pisses on the ashes.

Sorry. head’s somewhere odd right now. Pickled in Polar Ice.

This reminds me of all the false creationist hoaxes, of pseudoarchaeology, pseudoscientific creationist arguments, straw men of science, misrepresentations, etc. Just to mention a few classics: "random chance", "the cell is too complex", "even Darwin said that the eye could not have evolved", "science's Darwin prophet", "mix chemicals in a bowl and a human won't come out", "evolution means atheism", "science means Marxism", "evolution caused Hitler" (biology and Social Darwinism confusion), ...

And obviously, how was the hoax discovered to be a hoax? Basic science.

Knowledge, atheism and science are not diseases. On the other hand, religious indoctrination can produce irrationality and paranoia that is sometimes difficult to distinguish from clinical conditions such as psychosis. For the predisposed schizophrenics, it can hasten and worsen their condition. Some studies also show a correlation between chronic depression and religious cults. It's not difficult to understand: victims are often denied basic freedoms, isolated and manipulated with constant fatalist fear mongering and world alienation propaganda.

Gumby #fundie

Pseudoscientific creationists tend to call this argument "Irreducible Complexity". It relies on ignorance, straw men of evolution and the denial of overwhelming evidence. Non-victims know that this is not how evolution works. About circulatory systems, they have evolved more than once and there are are various blood types, for instance some animals use hemocyanin instead of hemoglobin, there are closed and open circulatory systems, there's a lot of scientific literature about it. For Humans, just follow the phylogenetic tree's mammals path.

Douglas J. Bender #fundie

Your main problem is that claims (that you call "all facts") are not necessarily facts and still subject to analysis. Then there actually are confirmed facts about the world, that you are misleadingly dismissing as only opinions, for false balance. This is called denial in favor of dogma and psychological projection.

Christians have traditionally believed

Well, I ain’t a Christian, so why should I give a fuck about what they believe?

Glenn Winningham/SovereigntyInternational.fyi #crackpot #wingnut #conspiracy

If that’s true then why has it NEVER worked whenever you “Sovereign Citizens” types tried those things? Maybe its’ complete bullshit originally created by a bunch of insane racist dickheads want slavery back but what do I and a lot of other folks who repeatedly point out how wrong ya’ll are know, ya clearly the “geniuses” here.

Sadness (“Remember Sodom and Gomorrah”) #fundie

“Fuck it. I'm taking the Godpill.”
Pretty sure the godpill counts as taking His name in Vain.

“Fuck it. I'm sick of this degenerate society.”
Only because no one’s offering to suck your dick, and you like to imagine all of them in hell for enjoying life without you.

"I've seen too much promotion of fornication,”
Such as incels demanding a state-issued sex slave to cure their loneliness? Stuff a sock in it, bozo.

“faggotry, and other sexual immorality by the Satanic MSM,”
Well, you know all the evangelical buzzwords.
I’m sure God will welcome your judging, reviling, hatred, anger, and total lack of sympathy. You’re HIS GUY I’m so sure.

“I've heard too many stupid rap songs about "fucking hoes", and I've overheard too much stories of Chads fucking party sluts every weekend.”
You mean, living the life you really think you were cheated out of by your parents? Yeah, that’ll play.

“You know what? I don't envy them.”
Sure, you don’t. We believe you.

“I don't envy any man who's had sex with a non-virgin.”
SOmeone who knows what they’re doing and can please them? Who’d want that?

“The only type of sex that should be happening in the world is between a man and his wife.”
Well, if you can’t join ’em, curse ’em.

“Anything else is an abomination.”
So is lying, Sadness.

“JFL at playing Russian roulette with antibiotic-resistant STDs, child support, and false rape accusations just for a used impure hole that you'll regret fucking someday.”
Standard incel projection. “You have everything I want, but you’re not happy, you’re REALLY not happy, stop enjoying your miserable life!”

“Mainstream churches are also becoming less and less moral.”
Or more moral, but not in line with 2000 year old misogynistic power trips?

“Even the churches are being corrupted.”
You’re taking the godpill in anger, as a weapon to point at others, and you’re worried about corrupted church congregations.

On a side-note, the asterisked portion is as follows:

But what about old/infertile couples? First, never say never. Second, such couples are still modeling the relationship form.

I trust the first is the writer gesturing at Abraham and Sarah.

Both communities and cultures reject me

I’m sure that you’re rejected because you’re an odious little shit.
