Doesn't matter how much you bomb Mexico. If there is a demand for drugs there will be a supply. No matter the price. A drug addict will do ANYTHING to get it
Cutting the supply would only work if you're somehow able to cut almost all supply for 30 years straight, until the currently addicted people die off or sort themselves out
To stop the drugs you need to stop the demand for drugs. Treat addicts instead of arresting them. And oh my god stop prescribing literal Opioids as "treatment"
The point here is not that this comment hurts trump in some way. But that it hurts democracy. It favors violence over reason.
Many believe that the world might be better if trump was dead, but on the other side, if assassination is an acceptable solution to politics then democracy is destroyed.
The people that are against Trump are also against fascism. And supporting his murder is contradictory and essentially hurts your own cause.
Choosing to be fair and respectful to your enemy is the best course of action. Even though it might be extremely frustrating.
There are not many occasions where someone would accept a fish as a gift. But having a mechanic say "Gift a fish" is pretty funny
Pulls existence from the void
This point is highly dependent on whether or not you believe there is some sort of soul or existence before birth. I cannot argue on this point since this is pure belief, so I will accept your view for the sake of the discussion
Questions how not doing so could have prevented suffering
You could say it prevents suffering, but it also prevents Joy, Love, Friendship. Sure it also prevents Sadness and Grief and so on. It prevents everything by way of not giving life a chance.
If you think you cannot provide a happy life to your children then it's perfectly valid to not want children. But it's egoistic to think that other people should not have kids because of your own world view.
Many Antinatalists believe that life in the current world is filled with so much suffering that it's not worth being born.
But that's like... Your opinion man! Let people make their own choices
I don't think that this is AI. In fact I'm curious to how it was made
It's absolutely fine if you don't want to have kids
I don't agree with the Antinatalist idea that having children is immoral. Or that Antinatalism reduces suffering.
If I'm incorrect please elaborate
I'm sorry that you had a bad experience with your psychologist.
If I can point out one thing that might help you is that these thoughts largely come from an evolutionary trait called Negative Bias
Negative Bias is the disproportionate focus on bad events and/or memories compared to good events.
It applies to a large range of memories and our ability to perceive danger. Evolutionary it makes sense because our embarrassing memories makes us afraid or unwilling to behave in a way that the social group doesn't like.
You can imagine when humans lived in societies in small groups of 30 people, that disrespecting someone could get you kicked out of the group and potentially starve to death in the wild. So there is a very strong evolutionary pressure that made your brain evolve to avoid repeating bad scenarios
Your constant embarrassing, sad, or traumatic memories are your brain reminding you over and over not to be in that situation again.
Unfortunately your brain didn't evolve to be happy. It evolved to survive.
All I wanted to explain is that these memories are not your fault. Don't feel like you're any different because you have bad memories constantly. Accept that your brain will do what it is programmed to do and learn how to work around those tendencies.
And I could recommend trying another psychologist. I'm also available to chat if you'd like. Cheers 🙂
That's a great comment. I go though basically the same steps with my constant flow of embarrassing and/or sad memories
If they're useful then maybe I should explore this thought for a little longer, or try to speak with someone
If I have nothing to gain from it and it's just making me cringe or sad I try to do something else to distract myself
It's important to not shut these memories down immediately. Some memories really need to be explored in order for you to properly leave them in the past. And you can bottle up a bunch of emotions if you refuse to think about thoughts that come to you constantly.
Yup, but that's all you have right now
I'd argue the senile old man is MUCH better
America best country in the world am I right??
It's a meme. It's just trying to say that Biden is embarrassing and/or a bad candidate
His party dropping him would only guarantee that trump is elected. It would be a dumb move and it obviously won't happen.
You might not like Biden, but against a twice impeached, insurrectionist felon, I would vote for Biden every time
I would also vote lettuce against Trump.
But I'm voting Joe to keep that orange imbecile away
What's to see?
I wish people would see past the idea that millionaires are evil people (and yeah they are), and understand that the root of this issue is on the economic/governmental system that allows people to hoard this much wealth
Yes it's dystopian as fuck how much money he's able to make. But that's not a result of him being evil or something. That's a result of how the advertisement Industry works.
He's just a guy that mastered the YouTube game and is doing what he's good at. He could retire or take a more relaxed work routine and still be a millionaire. But he works a lot to make more YouTube content because he likes it.
I don't like Mr. Beast. But don't think he's doing anything unethical
