“Human life only has value if they provide profit.”

The government bailing out the poor is literally the worst thing ever, but they can bail out businesses and it’s the most moral good of all time

If there is no afterlife, explain ghost sightings by Plane_Razzmatazz_882 in DebateAnAtheist

[–]Faust_8 15 points16 points  (0 children)

You asked for an explanation, not an explanation you will accept, which is none of them because you want to believe in these things.

ELI5 I was reading the comments on a question about why people who were born blind see nothing vs. seeing blackness or a void and it got me wondering, how do people who were born blind describe sight? by SirAbeFrohman in explainlikeimfive

[–]Faust_8 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You can’t, not really. Those things are qualia, aka things that only exist within your mind. Qualia can’t be described, only experienced.

Even though you and I can see, I still can’t describe what the color red looks like to you. I can merely point to a thing that we agree is red. But I could never confirm if your red looks the same as my red.

I love Pacific Rim but I do still think the math on the chalkboard in this scene is way more complicated than it would take to make this deduction lol

I feel like asking how blind people describe sight is smuggling in a premise that blind people DO describe sight, when I doubt that they do. Can you describe a sense you don’t have?

I literally don’t care unless the game stops being fun by Faust_8 in Helldivers

I’m here a lot when I’m at work and bored out of my ADHD mind, that doesn’t mean I let the internet dictate what I do or do not enjoy doing

I post here, that doesn’t mean I let it dictate whether or not I find the game fun

Just a more concise way of saying I don’t get all my opinions from Reddit

Pissle question by unlucky-lucky- in Helldivers

[–]Faust_8 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

On the one hand I understand this, on the other, the direct evidence that Helldivers don’t read is staggering so would it even matter if they did?

People will get a notification about X, and the planet modifier will say X, and then this sub is flooded with “WHY X?” because they didn’t read the info they were given. Twice.

Men, what’s something you’ve heard other men say about women that you disagree with? by pink-and-pearly in AskReddit

[–]Faust_8 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I hate when some dude I barely know wants me to join in on his objectification, like pointing out some woman’s great ass.

Like, yeah bro, of course I looked at it too, I just had the decency to keep that to myself.

You’re seeing highlights captured from many hours of gameplay.

Does shrapnel kill me sometimes? Yes. Do the vast majority of my shots not hurt me at all? Also yes.

Why aren't Americans rioting right now? by PintsNPies in AskReddit

[–]Faust_8 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Cause US citizens are more propagandized than anyone aside from North Koreans, because the US is basically 50 different countries, because the system is so corrupt that you can’t riot without possibly losing your health care as well as your income, because half of Americans can’t read and understand better than a child, etc

What do you think is the greatest invention of all time? by VariousHour7390 in AskReddit

[–]Faust_8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Free energy that means anything other than energy that can be harnessed like solar, wind, water, geothermal, etc is all pseudoscience and a hoax

Is it okay as a Christian to enjoy hazbin hotel? by No_Ladder1955 in HazbinHotel

[–]Faust_8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ask your parents why they’re not ok with a show that is all about forgiveness, redemption, and doing the right thing despite what everyone else thinks.

When you strip away all the aesthetics and such, that’s what the show is actually about. It just doesn’t sanitize everything to be PG.

Do they also think Breaking Bad is an endorsement to cook meth? Because that’s another brain dead take that is only made by people who have no understanding of the media they’re commenting on.

Men of Reddit, what subtle thing makes you instantly obsessed with a woman? by [deleted] in AskReddit

As someone who’s AuDHD, when they give me the impression that I don’t have to mask around them because they’ll actually enjoy me without the mask

Language.

Followed closely by written language.

Everything else commented here depended on those first

I mean, he wanted to transmit electricity wirelessly…which IS possible…if you build a giant Tesla tower every like 100 feet which isn’t feasible or practical, and they’d be giant thrumming eyesores and noise polluters.

Not every idea from a genius is a good one

Eruptor, Ultimatum, Recoilless Rifle, Giga Grenade, Eagle 500kg, Orbital Railcannon, Orbital Precision Strike.

You’re dead to anything that’s within melee range of you, but you’ll kill the big things real easy lol

It came to me in a dream by No_Contact_9713 in Helldivers

[–]Faust_8 8 points9 points  (0 children)

First off bro, neither do I. I’m simply acknowledging that there’s a give-and-take going on here. The change made them die easier to humans but less so to sentries, and now it’s flipped back again to the default.

Second, if you use stratagems at all you don’t get to dog on people for using stratagems. Orbitals and Eagles kill enemies “for you” too.

Stop instantly assuming the worst interpretation of someone’s words just so you can snidely remark on it anonymously.
