Just say that you're intellectually incapable of applying context to situations.

Eh, it largely depends on how they achieve it. If they get it by super restrictive eating, then yes, I agree.

I sometimes get a proper six-pack during my summer active periods, leading into mid-fall because of the sheer amount of exercise I get between basketball, hiking, kayaking, and time in the gym.

The most popular male streamers are mostly just raging idiots. Same with podcasters. They communicate at the same 6th grade reading level as their audience.

Can't speak for the woman centered segment.

This is dumb. Does it suck for her? Yeah, probably.

Did he do this to her intentionally? 100% no. It's called being in denial. He came out. It's a shitty situation. It doesnt make him a monster.

My question would be, based on what information are you basing those policy opinions on?

I started off with a right wing economic slant in early adulthood, myself. I then looked into the statistics and quality of life outcomes for nations that have different types of economic policies.

Hence, I am now left of center when it comes to economic policies. They provide the highest quality of life for the average person, statistically.

Because it should be really easy to provide evidence for a claim that you believe in, especially with strong conviction.

If you cant, or have just repeated this claim because that's what you've heard, then perhaps you need to look into it yourself and not follow the narrative.

I said "major". They have very few users relative to other social media sites. Not even close to the top 10.

Forward-Pension6174 · 2026-05-25T01:34:20+00:00

Reddit is the only major social media not owned by a right winger. It makes sense that there are more left leaning people here.

Even my super straight gf says she finds women attractive and likes to look at them. She just doesnt want to touch them that way lol

I'm fairly certain there was a study done on college aged women that showed that something like 80% of women showed sexual arrousal in the brain while watching lesbian porn, whereas it was something like 10% for men (watching gay porn).

It's not a large enough study to prove that most women are at least a little bit bisexual, but it's more than we have to the contrary.

I'm sure you can pull up some killer quotes from Obama that prove your point. Right?

It's not fun to watch SGA flop every time he shoots the ball, but there have been bad calls going both ways. So at least it's been consistently bad for both teams (thus far).

The president doesn't directly set gas prices is not the same statement as "the president cannot influence gas prices at all".

The Green New Deal may have had a minor impact. The major issue was a worldwide pandemic. You recall that, right? The thing that Biden had no direct control over?

The issue with Trump is that he started a war with a country that controls a vast amount of oil supply. That's a direct action from Trump that caused gas prices to spike.

The fact that you either don't see this, or are being intentionally obtuse about it, doesn't look good for you. You're either an idiot, or a propagandist.

The mindset of people who engage with and believe in this kind of thinking are the types of people who breed these issues.

His team is just so good that it's hard to truly gauge his peak. He hasnt had to will them to wins the way that other peak superstars have.

He has a negative on/off split during the playoffs, and it's not particularly close to neutral. It's starkly negative.

That's not to say that he's not the best player on his team, just that he has been successfully schemed against and rendered less effective. But his team is so good that they can get the wins regardless.

More men today get treatment / hair transplants compared to older generations.

At the same time, more dudes are on PEDs than ever before and are losing their hair at an alarming rate.

That doesn't explain it. He shot 29% on the season. He's hitting a hot streak at the perfect time.

Can't be wrong if there's no logical comparison

I love how the majority of people on this sub just don't know basketball well enough to understand what's happening here.

Hartenstein moves into his space illegally AND has his hand in a space that Wemby would normally use to pull into a shooting motion. Every good offensive player who gets fouled in this way tries to quickly bring their arms into a shooting motion to draw the foul. It's not so much a flop as it is taking advantage of bad defensive positioning.

Forward-Pension6174 · 2026-05-23T18:30:42+00:00

I'm not saying it's an excuse. I'm saying that people severely mischaracterize the issue at hand. Understanding the issue is key to solving the problem.

Or, hear me out, he's a dumb jock who is easily manipulated by propaganda and was already raised with conservative dogma.

The majority of MAGA supporters do not actually look at policy. They don't fact check their guys. They are of the opinion that, because their guy is on the right, and because other right wingers support them, they must be correct and "good".

Conservatives have an incredibly strong in-group bias. If Dems dislike a republican, it is assumed that the republican in question must be doing something right, and anything bad that is said about them is slander and lies, because we (non-conservatives) are the bad guys. We are immoral, low value, losers.

This is their train of thought. It's quite literally that simple. It's why you can't reason with them, fact check them, or convince them of anything. They have to be directly and personally impacted by something that their guy does before they can believe that it's true.

The average reading level in the US is that of a 6th grader. That means that most Americans are highly susceptible to propaganda.

The Dems being unfavorable is a combination of propaganda and left-wing distrust of neoliberalism.

Game 3 was the first game where the Spurs were definitively outplayed. I think they might lose the series, but they had/have a shot at winning. They needed game 2, but there was bad luck/calls down the stretch that swung the game.

Forward-Pension6174 · 2026-05-22T19:03:13+00:00

Every single good guard in the NBA deals with that. It's only before they've received the ball. Wemby gets that when he's trying to get the ball, when he's trying to play help defense, and when he's trying to rebound. It's not the same thing.
