For those wondering how this can possible "convince" people, the point of this is to provide a ready-made rationalisation that people already believing it to be true can use to convince themselves that it is actually true despite the obvious lack of evidence. In other words, it's basically a hotfix to the NPC software core to prevent malfunctions due to the story being untrue.

It's worse than that. Getting it but not getting as sick is the exact how you'd set up a situation for the virus to evolve around whatever protection the injection is meant to be providing.

Storing encrypted material and using their quantum computers decrypt it so they discredit a random individual? LOL. Why do that when they could just give a thug a $10 wrench and go have "chat" with that individual.

My point is that it's just going to be a regurgitation of the common stereotypes for each country based on what's presented in the media. So it's not going to vary wildly from person to person. It'll mainly be the same biased representations, which I think is already evident.

If the question had been "tell us something about a country that you know at lot about" then the answers might be different and more useful.

No one here can answer this with any degree of accuracy, since that would take people actually knowing enough many different countries; but most of what people know is from biased media sources so is unreliable.

All you are going to get from this thread is a list of people's biased views based on these media representations.

It's not just big tech that's in a bubble; but that's another topic.

I don't see how the price can fall when the demand is solid and the supply isn't rising.

In December 2019, you probably wouldn't have predicted a massive fall in demand in early 2020 but it happened. I'm not saying it will happen again, I'm saying you can't be sure it won't. Their "green catastrophe" is also better served by oil being expensive, not cheap.

Oil has traded below $70 for large periods of the last five years. The Citigroup prediction is useless, but that's because such public predictions by large financial institutions are always useless (they aren't going to release valuable information for free), not because of the % drop. Implying that oil can't possibly drop 33% is even more stupid. Anything can happen as far as markets go. You're probably someone who reckoned in December that it was "ridiculous" to think that SPX would trade below 4000 in 2022.

Appointment by lottery? Candidates would still either have to put themselves forward or be nominated, but a lottery will make it harder to rig the process, since there is only a percentage chance of being successful, rather than this being potentially guaranteed.

I actually think including randomness in many of our decision making processes will reduce corruption, as this is a limit as to how effective corruption could be - it will be capped by the random selection process. Of course, the random selection itself could be corrupted, but it is relatively easy make this transparent enough that it cannot be corrupted easily.

Worked like a charm. This is at least the second post here about this. WHO have successfully manage to keep people talking about a disease no one should care much about using classic outrage bait.

I suppose they mean "volume" as in physical size of sperm

It is semen volume. Also, "motility" here refers to the % motile sperm, which is an established parameter measured in semen analysis. They don't seem to be trying to hide the fact that there is a reduction in the total motile sperm since they've provided it in the abstract; the point is this is a function of the reduction in total count rather than % motility.

Edit: Actually, I stand corrected. Looking through their actual data, it does appear that % motile sperm is slightly decreased (by 2-5%) with a marginal p value (0.058). It is incorrect to report this as "stable" when it does suggest a reduction. In addition, their data does NOT clearly show a return to baseline; motile sperm counts remain lower at their final timepoint, and likely are not statistically significant from baseline timepoint due to inadequate power. The statistical interpretations in that study are terrible - a reduction that is non statistical significant cannot be used to infer that there is no difference, it can only be used to infer that there is insufficient evidence to reject the null hypothesis of no difference.

Exactly. Everyone thinks that "monkeypox" is a joke because of its name. That's why they are renaming it. Remember back when there was "pneumonia linked to a novel coronavirus"? Then there was "COVID" and it become so much easier to fearmonger with.

Bonus points they can use a lame excuse for it and spark "outrage" for this lame reasoning (evidence: this thread) without everyone focusing on their likely actual motive; they also keep people talking about it which likely serves their goal as well.

I don't need to improve myself. I can already get women.

I'm actually shocked by this response of yours. I actually thought you understood women enough to realise that "getting women" wasn't a useful criterion for any man to strive for, yet I was mistaken.

Seriously, you should go further down the MGTOW path. You are well and truly stuck in the "red pill rage" stage (no MGTOW further along the path would possibly mistake me saying "self-improvement" for "getting women"). I'm not MGTOW but I understand the importance of the MGTOW principle of not being beholden to women. For all your supposed hatred of women, you will never be free of them until you simply move on.

God, why do you keep outing yourself as a cringe ass normie?

Well, his whole behaviour is the epitome of "normie". He's basically someone who got red-pilled about the nature of women, and rather than this just being the first step of a journey of self-discovery and self-improvement, which is what many men end up doing when they get red-pilled, he started whining in the expectation that if he told enough people about these "problems", some how these "problems" would be fixed.

It's a classic symptom of the feminisation of society - learned helplessness, refusal to take responsibility, and being unwilling to self-reflect and take charge one's own emotions.

Sure, I accept that it can be a useful tactic on some occasions. But I still stand by my point that it's making the world more feminised, which I believe is the primary reason we are at this point. Gone is the world where reality matters, and enter the world where only feelings matter.

Here's another time you show how much of a girl you are. It's a feminist myth that the primary male tactic is physical violence. Men resort to that only in the last resort, because physical violence is extremely damaging to all sides - when men want to harm each other, they don't do it half-arsed.

SomeHands10 2 points ago +2 / -0

It's not effective, at least not in the long run. It's normalising female tactics more and more, making society even more feminised.

Here's another thing - women were busy honing their skills at these tactics in their peer groups for years while you were busy honing your hand-eye coordination and competitive spirit in games or sports (assuming you are a man and had normal teenage male hobbies). They are always going to be better at it than most men.

Men need to play to their strengths - which involves building competence hierarchies in disciplines that have concrete real world effects - instead of engaging in female-style social competition.

Man, you are such a girl. Finding the "opposition's" "incriminating tweets"? That's pretty much using gossip to bring them down. Stop using female tactics as your main weapon. Become a man and rise above all that petty shit.

They'd probably stab me in the back (literally) and take my shit.

Nah, here's where I think you still misunderstand women. They will probably kill you, but they won't do it themselves, they'd find a man to do it for them, offering themselves as a reward. This is the way women have operated for thousands of years, and will operate for thousands of years to come.

As amusing as the quoted post is, I think we need to be careful about maintaining real values as opposed to the "near enemies" of these virtues, which are frequently adopted by women.

The value in question here could be loosely describe as "empowerment". Actual "empowerment" involves not giving up in the face of adversity, improving oneself to become better, and ultimately succeeding. Women's idea of "empowerment" is basically talking about how they are more moral, more intelligent etc. than men without actually being any of these things. It's all talk, no action. That could be considered a near enemy of empowerment - in that no one is actually empowered, instead, the perception of being empowered has been adopted as a substitute.

In the same way, mocking the woman here is fun as a quick laugh, but actually doing the same thing by only talking about how men are generally so much better than women is no better. You aren't becoming more successful than women by telling yourselves that. The only way of becoming more successful is actually doing it, like a real man, and adopting the real value of empowerment, not stupid near enemy of empowerment loved by women. (Interestingly, traditional male culture has a built-in protection against this kind of fake "empowerment" - being an arrogant prick works if you can back it up, but if you can't back it up then you'd better watch out since it's an open invite for other men to take you down - but that protection is becoming less solid as society becomes more feminised).

Not only that - having kids effectively gives the state massive leverage over you to enforce whatever they want. If you have kids and no job, good luck to you. Mr Goverment says, "So, naturally, you need to take this injection, right? Otherwise you lose your job and your kids starve. Oh, glad you are 'willingly' taking it. It's not like you can fight me, after all, your kids might get harmed and it'll be all your fault!"

No kids and no job? Whatever, no need to sacrifice my principles for you.

Nah. Even without a sexual harassment case, sex can cause emotions to run hot for both women and men. That it turn can absolutely fuck with your mind and life.

Plus women, in general, are absolute experts are using sex to control men, and have been since forever.

Same story, for eons. Nothing new here. Except men these days seem to think they are so much cleverer than all the men that came before them, and reject all their teachings. Funny that.
