    I disagree vehemently with one of these and I thought it might make a fun little mystery, but on second thought I’ll just state up front it’s the Monty Python one.

    . No matter how intelligent a person is, they can still make the simplest mistakes for their entire lives, because they stick by of what they’ve learned and die on that hill.

    . Black holes will be proven to not exist. And in the list of cosmological errors, that’s the most obvious one.

    . For what it implies, Star Trek is far more evil than Star Wars despite all the anti-war rhetoric and perpetual war of the latter, as the former implies “Marx was wrong, Fourier was right. We CAN have a socialist utopia quietly evolved from an empire that began as a group of slave owners on stolen land with the flag of an oligarchic spice and slave trade corporation, who decided that a small sales tax, where most countries have VAT, on a single good, one that turns hot water into a tasty drink, was theft and so they decided that “this means war” and called for independence. Then a few decades later they created a manifesto saying that half the continent and more is simply theirs because they’re so exceptional. The empire with the two-party system to ensure the purest form of kleptocracy, an ingenious way to silence dissent and perpetual struggle, moreso than any dictatorship empire has tried in the past.
    The continuation of THIS empire, the empire of deception, is the one taking over the galaxy, destined to seize the entire universe because they’re so enlightened as said by one of the gods in the Star Trek universe.” And no, STD and Picard doesn’t do it any justice. Star Trek doesn’t tell why the Federation is or isn’t progressive. At least Star Wars explained how the Republic collapsed as a queen appointed a harebrained mudskipper to be her representitive in case she was absent, who then got manipulated into giving a tyrant unchecked power.

    Not only is Gacha a bad game monetization from a consumers perspective, the moment it’s implemented the game is shit, and you should be ashamed to play it.

    I dont care about Genshin’s cultural impact, Fortnite’s mechanical depth or how hot the latest team fortress character is, you should always have the thought of supporting the indefensible in the back of your head while playing them and consider it a guilty pleasure. Meaning: keep your damn pulls to yourself!

    And since I used to say it too: “You can absolutely play without paying money” isn’t an argument when you need to pay with time instead, doing dailies is a chore, not leisure.

    There needs to be a mandatory parenting training course if you’re expecting a child.

    Religion needs to be taken out of the government completely

      I like this in theory. But I know in practice some idiots will always manage to get their hands on the curriculum.

        Me too but it’d turn into eugenics so quickly.

        I was fucking baffled walking out of the hospital with my baby. No training, no proof of education, no tests. Walking out with the nurse in tow asking them "yeah are you sure i don’t need to like sign something?

      I disagree about religion. It should be subordinated to the government. That should stop them from promoting reactionary rethoric. (Assuming the government is half decent in the first place. Otherwise there’s not much difference.)

    12 hour time is an inferior standard, and we should be on 24 hour time so developers don’t ever default to 12 hour time. Way too many instances of mission critical things getting swapped on am/pm by mistake. That is never a problem with 24h time.

        Really? That’s really surprising to me. I’m from Denmark where we use 24h time a lot so I’m used to it, but except for edge cases it’s easy to switch between them. Using Fahrenheit however is a struggle. I have to convert it every time, I have no idea about the temperature until I see it in celsius really. I guess it comes down to me having been exposed to both clock formats but only really on temperature unit.

          My guess is I’d do better if every clock I owned was on 24-hour time. That’s how I did the Celsius switch, every device (except my car, which I haven’t been able to figure out how to change) I set to Celsius.

    -for humanity to survive, it must eliminate the rich

    -pineapple can go on pizza. You can put whatever you want on pizza. You don’t have to like it for it to be a valid topping. Some people just hate things because they heard about it online.

    -new York pizza is not the best pizza in the universe.

    • the people who want to change the date of celebrating Halloween to the last Saturday of October (or anything similar) are childhood hating assholes who think that it’s more important to keep the capitalistic society going than celebration human culture. They would rather things be convenient for them and their bosses than to let people celebrate things when they please. There’s also probably a bias against non Christian religions. If you find it inconvenient you should be mad at the system that makes it inconvenient for you to do something on a Tuesday night, not a holiday that’s centuries older than your job. Work should work around holidays not the other way around.

      I’ve seen crushed boiled eggs on pizza. Also ones with green olives on top that still had the pits inside.

        I’d try the egg pizza. Olives with the pits is a choking hazard, because people won’t necessarily be expecting it.

    My hill: Laws that give “unnecessary” rights to people are still good overall and shouldn’t ever, EVER, be reversed. Laws that give “unnecessary” rights keep society stable and have come from past times soaked in blood. If you reverse 60-100 years of these gains, then society will collapse.
