The card terminals asking for tips for fucking take out and other places where it shouldn't even be applicable has definitely been getting under my skin. Asking to "round up" or flat out donate at the grocery store has been getting out of hand as well. Just let people be; especially given all the recent inflation.

Reason number 746 why you should never trust AI to tell you things that could be even remotely debated or controversial. Much better use is having it save you time by actually doing or producing things for you.

Am I reading that wrong?

I don't quite get how the second part of his comment follows from the first either, so it's not just you.

Also related to that post, I feel like in a non clown world, the term "scientifically illiterate" could have a legitimate meaning, but leftoids have turned it into another meaningless insult that's just a simple proxy for "someone who disagrees with me," or even, let's be real here, "someone who disagrees with the establishment."

Which makes his post even funnier. The whole basis for someone like this to slander RFK in that manner is that he espouses many views counter to the established medical orthodoxy. Yet absolutely zero reflection is done on the fact that mRNA being bad was (and still is) a "conspiracy theory" espoused mostly by people the average leftoid would deem to be "scientifically illiterate."

Onlyfans is degenerate and shit and should receive nothing but shame to be associated with it as either a provider or a customer. But I don't subscribe to the notion that a man finding a 17 year old girl attractive makes him creepy. Evolution doesn't care about those arbitrary age limits, and girls at that age often already had kids for most of human history.

I find the performative disgust at it even more creepy. Like some weird virtue signal about how oversocialized and trained by fourth wave feminist society you are.

As long as you use the same argument for things like alcohol. I rarely drink. By no stretch of the imagination would anyone ever try to argue that I have an alcohol addiction. For someone who drinks a bit more, say one or twice a week and never goes overboard, similarly it would be difficult to argue that's an issue.

For right or wrong, porn is viewed similarly. Most people are happy to draw a line somewhere, just not at zero like the absolutists.

That being said, at bare minimum it needs to go back to being stigmatized much much more than currently. Letting people talk about it openly and even participate in it openly without social consequences has been a huge mistake.

It's a factor, but you're kidding yourself if you think the problems we are facing regarding breakdown in relationships, loneliness, marriage rates, fertility rates, etc would be solved by eliminating porn. They would not be.

That doesn't mean I am saying porn is good or that it doesn't restructure the brain, or that eliminating it wouldn't move the needle at all.

The entire culture around relationships and the toxic nature of many modern women does not go away by eliminating porn. Rigged family courts do not get fixed by eliminating porn. Dating apps giving mid women an over inflated sense of value and eternally screwing how their mind views relationships does not go away by eliminating porn etc etc.

That is all true, but it doesn't change the reality that mass porn addiction is a symptom, not the root problem. A very problematic symptom, but a symptom nonetheless.

The deck is stacked against men in many aspects of society and relationships. For many men, having more energy is not going to be the difference between being a porn addicted virgin and being a happily married family man. Now, it would likely be the difference for a small percentage, but not for a large amount. Anyone asserting it would be some transformative change for society without fixing other factors is deluding themselves.

As someone who could be credibly accused of having mild yellow fever, she just doesn't do it for me. Not really even attractive, and all the hair dye and makeup is masking stuff that would likely make her more attractive. People have shit taste. But I guess I shouldn't be expecting much of people who would download OF.

I agree that it's harmful for people and they need to do what they can to avoid it. But most people here are aware that porn addiction is a symptom of greater societal ills. So while the message of "don't watch porn, it's bad for you" is still a good one, I can see how it can rub certain people the wrong way, because it's not like they have a solid quality woman to fall back on.

Edit: Yep, kept reading and the very next comment was calling exactly this out in more detail.

I legit was shocked when I saw her face. Can anyone chime in and provide context as to why she's so popular?

It's gonna sound like cope, but stuff like this just accelerates the degradation of any shred of sympathy people have for Jews and by extension Israel. Levels of noticing and fatigue are already reaching high points for the last several decades.

It's crazy how blatant it's become. It was always there just under the surface, but I dont know how normies don't connect the dots at this point.

What exactly registers as public outcry to you? Normies were never clued into the Epstein thing. So you weren't exactly going to see people in the streets over it. But most people who were harping on it before haven't just dropped it, and saying they have just because they haven't mentioned it every day is a bit much.

In the end most people who wanted the files released and still do are doing the exact same thing you are doing: bitching about it on the internet.

Polls can be a great tool if you know how to use them. If the way a question is asked or presented is skewed or the pollster is shit, the output will be shit. On the other hand there are pollsters who have historically higher accuracy. "Polls are bullshit" as a general statement is an intellectually lazy position. There are shit polls and there are absolutely polls that only exist to serve as propaganda. But not all polls are like that.

Where are you getting the notion that moving on from Epstein is the mainstream MAGA opinion? If anything I see the exact opposite. And polls continue to say <10% of Republicans don't want the files released. If anything I'm pleasantly surprised how few people were swayed by Trump trying to sweep it under the rug.

Perhaps it's a cope, but if he truly does a 180 on a lot of important things in short time frames, at least it can teach a quick lesson that they might not be able to vote their way out of their problems.

With the Firage way you can spend several years or even over a decade sitting in the pot waiting for the temperature to decrease only for it to keep getting hotter.

Personally, I don't think this board is active enough to warrant bring upset about a separate post for this. I'm fine with the graph being a separate post instead of a comment or edit on the other post.

As someone who has not heard anything about this until yesterday, why did people think the tranny was going to be casted in the first place? Did it cosplay as Zelda?

Yeah all I will say with certainty is that I have no certain grasp on what the hell he's thinking right now. I would have pushed back on the 4D chess angle a day or two ago, but it's crossed into the "so bad it isn't plausible that he's this stupid" territory so I don't know what to think anymore.

I'm a big fan of Barnes, especially lately. Where did he say that, in the big Sunday stream they do?

I don't buy the idea that he is this out of touch. Which means he is aware how bad this comes off and is doing it anyway. I'm not sure how anyone can conclude anything aside from he must be covering for Israel, or that someone he wants to protect is implicated. Hope the deal with the devil is worth it for him. Hard to conclude that it is anything but terrible for the country as a whole.

On one hand, go for it. It beats anything else we're getting. On the other hand, if it's just her word and is not accompanied by other evidence, how could it be believed?

There are levels of unpopularity though. Newsome and Harris are quite unpopular even among the already unpopular Democratic party as a whole.
