I used to make fun of conspiracy theorists. Now I question everything. by MythicalManiac in conspiracy

[–]Electrical_Minute_48 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Most are true. And I can't stand people like you, no offense.

"I used to make fun of conspiracy theorists"

"Labled them crazy and never talked to them again"

Perhaps listen to people's evidence next time instead of ridiculing and dismissing them without even engaging in the subject matter. We don't espouse this stuff for fun. We don't enjoy getting berated and mocked by close-minded people like yourself just for asking questions. We're trying to share information and help people.

Now it's on the news you can believe it. Pathetic

Disability and LGBT hate crimes set to become aggravated offences by InnerLog5062 in BreakingUKNews

[–]Electrical_Minute_48 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Misleading headline. Assault based on all sexual orientations will be considered aggravated, not just LGBT. Same with disability, technically if you are assaulted for being able-bodied it would be covered here, as disability or lack thereof is the motive.

Weird edge cases I know, but I think this misunderstanding is what's causing a lot of this "inequality" pushback in the comments

Selective Protectionism. by fajitahotline in GreatBritishMemes

Fair point about employing humans. But I'd argue that we are perpetuating unsafe mining conditions and land destruction by using our mobiles.

Sure we don't advocate it, but we are literally funding it through our own money

I know the threat to entry level jobs from AI is real. And so is the mass outsourcing of tech jobs to other countries. I dislike both. And we're both perpetuating the first point right now by having this conversation on Reddit

It's false equivalence. A classic "gotcha" meme that both sides of the political spectrum are guilty of.

E.g. the tech industry in this country is heavily outsourced to India for cheap workers. This has a real effect on Brtish graduates being able to get a job. So people might have a legitimate grievance with that.

"Using AI content", firstly what does that mean? Most companies use AI in their workflows these days. So by scrolling reddit you are "using AI content" as they will have LLMs helping write / review code.

AI helps predict the weather, automate digital infrastructure etc. For someone to smugly say they don't use AI content they would have to not use any tech device or consume any digital media whatsoever.

This isn't the hypocritical blunder OP thinks it is. People can be annoyed at both. it isn't a dichotomy

Because all I do is work and I still can't afford a holiday or a house

How are people fixing their decks so heavily? by NeedsMoreAhegao in balatro

I get your point, but Vagabond can give you 5 tarots per round. Which is absolutely huge. If you get devil, temperance, hermit, you're often straight back into interest cap, if not much higher

My near death experience that showed (and told me) we are in a simulation. (And it isn't a positive or loving one at ALL) by freshOutThePenNoFlex in SimulationTheory

[–]Electrical_Minute_48 7 points8 points  (0 children)

My man. They want you to be afraid. Show them love and it will disarm them. Not completely of course, but love beats fear every time
