"Resist the lure of rabbit holes, in part, by reimagining media literacy for the internet hellscape we occupy." or "dont look into our bullshit just take what is said at face value. wouldnt want you to get...

so your contention isnt "thomas sowell is wrong" its "thomas sowell isnt a genius economist". stephen hawking's most famous theory was disproved that doesnt diminish his genius in his field and i dont even like the guy. einstein was wrong about things doesnt...
@Mielly
ive already explained why i do not consider you a reliable source and your post only compounds on that point. if i knew nothing of science but knew Einstein was important then some rando on the internet who, in-between his insults self-righteousness, insisted that Einstein was some...
@Gay4Jesus
fair, their name does not necessarily indicate anything but remember that i was replying to somone and adding to what he said around
but to argue an additional point i looked up the 25-point Nazi Program of 1921

@M0NST3R
the full name for 'nazi' is "National Socialist German Workers' Party" so they werent really trying to hide the ball there. my WW history teacher liked to describe fascism as "if socialists recognize the inherent flaws of their ideology so instead opt to be more realistic" as...

@Mielly
no. because it was explained to me that the body is able to fight the 'dummy virus' inside a vaccine so that it has a better chance at fighting the real thing. in other words somone explained somthing to me in a way that makes sense.
when i was younger and...
@M0NST3R
thank you i was looking for a list but all i kept getting was businesses owned by politicians
@Mielly
as a person who isnt an economist when it comes to questions of the economy i go to people who are able to explain things in ways i think makes sense. when i want to live to eat...
@Mielly
capitalism is a tool just like any other. just like how a saw can be use to make a chair or to administer aid it can be used to destroy and maim.
robber-barons era may be a time where capitalism was the latter. however to try and claim that america isnt "a free market capitalism-based...
@Mielly
listen im not an economist so ill just list what a website of economists say about it
so if the worlds GDP goes up then the worlds economy is healthier
so if it goes up on a worlds-wide scale then the entire world is producing better value goods
worldwide? no. in the places that...
@M0NST3R
that my fault. i copied somones name for one of my @'s and apparently i had accidentally copied the entire on-screen page by accident. i would love if the forum added a simple reply button on people posts so i can easy add an @ to my reply
@Dr_siegbert_dirk
i agree. a mask mandate wont change that. and theres no reason to believe that the japanese people were all using the perfect masks in the perfect way same as any other country. i think the reason japan was able to minimize their infections was:
1- they are an island
2- they...
first of all everyone stop acknowledging 2spitup up there until he/she/it actually starts taking part in the conversation instead of dropping links mindlessly then ignoring our counterarguments.

@EOTFOFYL
this is a manga forum debate on politics and your comparing it to a major historical event that involved changing human history as they knew it for the rest of time that left who knows how many people dead.
the only appropriate response:
@Kaldrak
no my point is between the options of:
lose power because it gets hot in summer(gov'ment gud)
or
lose power because of an event that occurs every 100 or so years(gov'ment bad)
they seem to have chosen the lesser of two evils. now that this event has occured they will hopefully learn...
i entirely support the idea of moving away from fossil fuels and into green energy. the real question is 'which?' and the only gree energy that has any beneficial historical consistency is geothermal, water, and the big baddie himself nuclear.
solar panels are nice and all in the moment but the...
@Kaldrak
gas masks do if you replace the filter daily. the tiny piece of cloth you got for free from some store that wont let you in without one? no.
the m-95 people have reused for 5 days? no.
the m-95 but washed with a common washer instead of an industrial one? no.
the m-95 but on the very...
