Do you have NPD? It is possible actually. NPD is extremely demonized out there for no reason when most people with NPD are not going around abusing people. The majority of abusers are perfectly fine mentally, they’re just assholes.

As much as I think the “WOKE MTG” arc is funny as fuck, and the fact she is actually sticking up for her principles (as fucked up as they are) is kinda respectable… don’t get it twisted, I think she’s still a horrible fucking woman. To me she is now what I’d call a worthy opponent who just happens to not be in the side of the main antagonist.

Relevant username. All I’ll say is… Please go to therapy.

I’m sorry that happened. I’m inclined to disagree with that first phrase, tho. The fact he has no empathy makes him not normal.

I don’t get how babies not spontaneously learning language invalidates the fact that toddlers will instinctively walk up to other toddlers to play regardless of their race. And sure, you need to learn empathy, but that’s when the conditioning part comes in. Plenty of people become empathetic adults even if their parents are terrible people.

TBH I think this is more of a conditioning thing. Like, very young toddlers (up to like, 5-6 years old) literally cannot understand racism. This is actually lampshaded in Wolfenstein II, when BJ just talks to a black girl and tells her about all the shit his father says about her race but he straight up says he doesn’t understand his reasons at all.

Again, I do not think people are evil by default. Hate is something that is taught, not inherent.

You joke but I’m a libertarian socialist and I say the government SHOULD be scared of regular people with weapons. Not to say I’m for a free-for-all when it comes to firearms, but I’m more partial to laws targeting law enforcement and handgun restrictions than something like an assault weapons ban.

Oh I am well aware of the abomination attachments to make those guns compliant with the laws. But I guess Trump’s just too stupid to even think those exist.

Using actual bigotry to get what you want politically is bad regardless of how “good” your political objective is.

Yeah, no. This is how you get people to start buying guns in masse AND shooting at any cop that rings their door.

But Batman DOES uses his billions to help Gotham. The problem is that most of his rogues gallery is composed of high ranking rich mafia bosses, and the rest are completely insane individuals (or even sane people who just LIKE being evil for no reason like Scarecrow who literally gasses people until they die of fright just to study their reactions). You can’t possibly think bribing the Joker with a billion dollars would stop him from bombing orphanages, gassing entire neighborhoods, or LITERALLY NUKING AN ENTIRE CITY.

Investing money into Gotham isn’t gonna stop the Penguin or Black Mask from running protection rackets or bribing cops, it won’t stop Poison Ivy from commiting literal ecoterrorism, and it won’t stop Victor Zsasz from gutting people to death with knives, or Deadshot from assassinating people.

Oh, and another thing: the city is actually fucking cursed with evil black magic. That’s not hyperbole. The city literally makes people evil.

Batman only is a vigilante because his work as Bruce Wayne is not enough.

This is one of the reasons I left Reddit (that and getting banned multiple times in a row). At some point I realized it wasn’t worth it anymore.

Well, your experience isn’t universal. Most people aren’t like you described.

Maybe you need a change of environment.

You’d be wrong. I’m sorry that you feel this way about humanity, but that is simply not true. And believing that won’t make you a “smart” person. It makes you’re no better than those people, and it also makes you feel worse.

It might be satisfying in the moment to hate humanity, but that satisfaction is fleeting and addicting. Being a misanthrope just brings the worst version of yourself out.

Maybe, but it also means that you’ll be alone for eternity and will never have true friends or camaraderie, and that by itself will consume you.

There is only so many people you can do that to before everyone else catches on and shuns you. All the evil people in the world don’t have any friends and are subject to betrayals and threats in their lives constantly. To me, that’s not a bearable existence. Sure, you got power, but you’re miserable and afraid all the time. Was that really worth it?

I just read on the article about how all the “tesla influencers” are refusing to comment on news media and instead insisting they only talk about it on Twitter.

Couldn’t be more manufactured consent if they tried.

Means we have all the time in the world to turn it against them, then!

Maybe this will actually make politicians flip their opinion on AI… lmao

Elon has enough fuck-you money to pay off anyone who would’ve complained.

lmfao
