@bot I came across another such person on the discord for my university of all places. He boasts in his height, physical appearance and intellect, how rationality is overrated and how he can kick lefty tech middle managers in the face. He also was a faithful catholic for what that's worth. Doesn't hinder him from being a vile person.
@meso@waifu@f0x@bot For gnats yes, for mozzies no One time I left the door open and had 40 gorillion gnats on the ceiling, my swatter would break before I dealt with half of it
@LukeAlmighty@Witch_Hunter_Siegfired It is safe and effective, not 100% but only a salesman would say such a ridiculous thing, as not even water is 100% safe. But the vaccines are much safer than covid-19.
I never appealed to the holocaust only affirmed it happened and had it's denial as an example of a widely propagated lie I can blame the masses for propagating. But if you'd misread my comment that way I take it you also think "15 minute cities" are not about pedestrianised cities, but rather are about a NWO control grid, in which case you are the type of loon that is immune to reason.
@Witch_Hunter_Siegfired@LukeAlmighty I believe the media is biased and garbage. That's not leftists tho unless the right wing is also culpible for their media and politicians. Narratives widely held by the left which can be demonstrated to be built on lies are what I'd be interested in. Right-wing equivalents would be "15 minute cities" hysteria and holocaust denial
@LukeAlmighty So the left supports means of establishing knowledge, and the right cares for conspiracy theories. Where's this "but they're just as anti-intellectual as us!" coming from? The source of the problem is obvious, hence why I went from chud to socialist.
@LukeAlmighty I did read the post and I just described why it is wrong. The premise that rightoids bring scientific papers that get rejected for frivolous reasons is bullshit.
@LukeAlmighty scientific inquiry and logic are valid tools of learning, superstitions and conspiracy theories are not.
Rightoids don't bring scientific papers. I don't remember seeing any here, that despite contending a few times over whether race is a concept that exists.
Strawman, nobody thinks trans people have an easier time finding partners.
@Witch_Hunter_Siegfired@Roscoe I think the holocaust actually happened and was bad, I just think it being its own degree is silly. "Egyptology" isn't a degree, it's a subset of Ancient History. But what field of science or history does "holocaust studies" represent?
Especially if what that guy says is right, and they use their sage wisdom to deplatform rather than refute deniers. Why spend years studying then?
